Nice Kicks Staff Picks: Best of 2008
Air Jordan XI CDP

In my opinion, this is the greatest Jordan sneaker of all time. This selection is a no-brainer for me. If this sneaker came out every year, I would pick it again and again and again.

Nike Hyperdunk

This was another no-brainer for me. There has not been a more revolutionary basketball sneaker like this in a long time. Very basketball-friendly.

Nike Air Penny II

This is one of the more comfortable sneakers I have ever owned. Penny’s signature line will always be classic and in my opinion this sneaker was the best one from it.

Air Jordan CDP IV “Bred”

Besides, the Air Jordan 11, this is one of my favorite Jordan sneakers ever. For me, it was a close call between the Air Jordan 3 and the Air Jordan 4, but I am going to go with the latter.

Air Jordan XX3 “Finale”

The Air Jordan 23 grew on me as the year continued. With that said, in my opinion JB saved the best for last by dropping this in late December. If Jordan was still playing today, could you see him rocking these?

    Hey Dummy,

    Do you always reply with a copy?
    And about the post number not being a matter, that’s what I said earlier, you dummy. Dumb, you’re just too dumb to see it!!!

  • bourne

    Cuz you’re a girl, just like a girl that you are being nosey and starting sh*t!!!

  • bourne

  • BKost

    Hey Bourne, I admitted I thought you were someone else. My bad. Idk why you still goin on.

    Doesnt change you still think your cool for gettin 1000 post and are now spamming this post trying to make me mad lol.

  • BKost

    Oh yeah you did originally say that, but then you said 1k matters. No numbers matter, at all. You cant say getting 1st matters and then say 1k matters becasue theyre all just a number by your post, in your case spam posts.

  • BKost

  • BKost

    #58,

    You really are STUPID, you thought that was me?
    Whatever, I copped my pack one week earlier! If you got hard evidence that it was me begging, I like to see it…!
    And, you just love talking tough behind a keyboard, don’t you?
    you must be a chick!

    COPYIN AGAIN

    Wow I just saw that. Im not gonna show evidence because I admitted I messed up. But uhh, talking tough behind a keyboard? No one was doing that. Are you gonan start e-thuggin now? Next you’ll be like “SAY THAT TO MY FACE AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS!” lol.

  • ThE STANDARD AKA THE FOOTWORK KING

    why dont yall just hug; its 2009 and ya’ll b–ching already. i hope stopping bitc–ng wasnt a resolution because yall are doing it already. f–king cyber tongue lashing

  • bourne

    To BKost,

    I remember you now… you are the fool who was lecturing everyone about how new visitors didn’t deserve to win the pack or something… and the winner was picked random…, and some dude was begging like nobody’s business, cracked me up too, and you and that dude were going at each other..! Sorry Homie, that wasn’t me! Do your research on your crap, before you start sh*t, cuz you look and sound stupid!!! Are you mad now?

  • bourne

    I LOVE EVERYONE, even BKost, if he wants a hug :P ,
    well, he did admit she was wrong!!! I can take that…

  • bourne

    So are you really a chick? And what the heck “BKost” stands for? Can you see, I am making up now!!!
    And no, I don’t thug… lol No need for that. But we sure put on a great show!!! :P

  • BKost

    Yeah, it was Lewis beggin for the pack. I remembered that name a little while ago.

    I know the winner was picked random, what I was saying about that is if the pack was going to be given to someone not randomly (like Lewis wanted), it shouldnt be someone begging for the pack. It should be someone who has supported this site from the begining (if they are still around). But since its impossible to know who has been around from the begining, random is best.

    I still dont get why you would say 1k matters and 1st doesnt.. Neither matter. But w\e, it aint important.

    Im kinda done with all this… Its a stupid argument anyway since I already admitted I got you confused with lewis.

    Comment by bourne — December 31, 2008 @ 11:28 pm

    Nah, and “BKost” is the first letter of my first name and the first four letters of my last name. Im not original with names.

  • bourne

    to BKost,

    Nah, it’s all good! I like the Bourne movies, hint hint!
    About the 1st and 1,000th comments thing, I was only stating that point mainly towards the idiots who always say 1st…
    being 1st is so easy for these fools whenever a new topic is posted, but being 1,000th on that other topic took so long, that it was more challenging…that’s all. It took some of us to get to it, not just wait for a new topic to pop up, and some fool to just type in 1st…! But you’re right, numbers don’t matter…! :P

    1. Carmine VI’s- Amazing colorway, favorite jordan.
    2. Marty McFly Hyperdunks- Hyperdunks are just sick in general, and really is a revolutionary basketball sneaker. And to inspire a shoe from “Back to the Future” is such an amazing idea. The colorway is just sooo clean, and come on!!! LIGHT UP, ICY SOLES??? wow, just simply amazing
    3. Black Cement III’s- Cement is just sooo dope, III’s a classic
    4. Supra Skytop Gold perf 500K- In my opinion first started using the metallic colors this year. Metallic colors are dope.
    5. JMJ Adidas Ultrastar- RUN DMC started this sneaker trend and we really owe them, their music, and fashion for all this. The ultrastar’s look almost exactly like the superstars so its all good. The sneaker is also dedicated to Jam Master Jay, and without him, RUN DMC wouldnt have ever existed. RIP JMJ

    WHERE R THE CARMINE 6′S AT MATT???

  • http://howfresheats.blogspot.com HowfreshEats

    Agreed with those MT580s. About time sz 12 feet can cop them. $85 is great but Foot Locker FF is even better. This color was mean and there were a lot of other colors out there. Maybe MT575s will be more widely available.

  • MJSF

    2008 must have been real weak if these are the best of the best.

    Its amazing to me how many ways one can go about investing your money. I’ve found for me that best solution is both risky and low risk stocks. I normally put about half of my investments into low risk mutual funds that grow over time and the other half in high risk high gain stocks. I recently got into day trading and I found that software stock picks are more reliable as they can automate a process that I cant do quickly enough. The blokes over at stockmarketsoftwareblog.com have a fantastic system. You need to check them out!
