LA Gear Returns With Vintage Styles

LA Gear Returns With Vintage StylesWho remembers owning a pair of those LA Gear sneakers that featured the light on the heel? Back in the late ’80s and early ’90s, LA Gear undoubtedly took over the sneaker world; therefore, almost two decades later, LA Gear is making a return with some of its vintage styles.

LA Gear recently collaborated with Sportie LA to re-release detailed reproductions of a few of LA Gear’s OG styles such as LA Gear Fire, LA Gear Star Shooter, and the LA Gear K.A.J. If you recall, some of these styles, released back in ‘89-’90 as part of the “Unstoppable” line.

The “Unstoppable” LA Gear line will publicly re-release in 2009, however, if you cannot wait until next year you can purchase them now at select Sportie LA shops. Via SportieLA.

Troop Pro Edition Returns

Troop Pro Edition Returns

The Troop Pro Edition has finally returned! In two different colorways (Red and Black), we have now spotted this classic sneaker at Finishline. Earlier this summer, we had a reason to believe this sneaker would be making a return from the 80’s since the demand for vintage kicks continued to escalate.

The Pro Edition has been manufactured slightly different this time. The new features include an embroidered logo and an air-bag that is visible from the inside of the arch. Despite the new details, the Troop Pro Edition is still smothered in elephant print.

We can thank Nelly for this classic return as he announced last February that he is bringing the brand back through a licensing deal. Maybe he cares about sneakers other than Jordans and Air Force 1’s after all.
