Sooo…remember the “Gucci” Dunks from the East vs. West Pack designed by the big homie DJ Clark Kent; that dropped in November? Yea, yea…the jawns with the Ostrich leather and gum bottoms! Well, to accompany them the Swoosh released a SB Eugene Backpack, similar to the Pacman and Buzz Lightyear versions. Kix-Files has some in stock for purchase. It’s a fairly large backpack too, good enough for skate decks, laptops and whatever else you need to transport. Go get you some!

Not the first time you’ve seen these AM1s live from the East vs. West rivalry pack, right? Cool! Suede Baroque Brown. Green mesh upper. White midsole. Black outsole. Beaver graphic on insole – paying homage to Beaverton. Available now! Go cop! Shout out to the homies at Kix Files.

During Holiday 2009, another edition to Nike’s East vs. West Pack will drop in the form of a USC inspired colorway “West” Dunk Hi.  Featuring a Team Red upper with Gold Fishscale highlights and a Gold Swoosh, animal print has been a reoccuring theme in many of the West styles. Look out for these in December.

One week and counting! October 24thshss marks the release of this faux-gator skin AF1 collab with Undefeated’s Eddie Cruz – part of the East vs. West pack. These jawns will be available at all House of Hoops in all it’s Laker inspired glory – purple upper and midsole, and yellow gold on the Swoosh and heel. However, for some contrast, a red sole was slapped on the bottom. These are sure to go quick…so a camp-out may be necessary if you want to get your hands on this heat.

Last month we got a look at two of DJ Clark Kent’s AF1s from Nike’s East vs. West Rivals Pack.  Repping the West, Eddie Cruz designed an AF1 Low in Laker Purple and Gold in a snakeskin upper.  Snakeskin will be a reoccuring theme in the Eddie Cruz jawns, as his high will also feature panels of snakeskin this time in Black/Navy colorway.  The boys at Kix-Files already got some in stock.  More pics after the jump.

Looks like the East vs. West theme is going to be a familiar concept for the Swoosh in ’09 as we’ve seen instances on the Dunk and DJ Clark Kent vs. Eddie Cruz AF1s.  Now, the Air Max 1 gets thrown in the mix with a West addition, featuring a Navy suede and mesh upper, with White and Carolina Blue highlights.  Now available at colette.  More after the jump.
