SHOGUN Holiday Preview 2
“Hello, it’s the Martian. Space Jam Jordans.”
Every sneakerhead in the game should have their calendars marked, a requested day off from work, and their lawn chairs ready for December 23, 2009. If you don’t, than you’re obviously not ready for one of (if not) the biggest sneaker releases this year. The Air Jordan XI “Space Jams” are being retro released in the US to conclude a year of quite possibly the best year of sneaker releases any of us can remember in recent times, and to welcome a new decade.
In anticipation of the “Space Jams” release next month, we have two specially designed t-shirts to go along with our Holiday Collection. These tees are hot, so be prepared to buy a new monitor. I don’t want to be liable for any of them when these pictures somehow burn a hole through them.
First up is the Space Jam logo, but renewed with our favorite word, “SHOGUN.”
Second, we have a black Marvin the Martian head and his blasters on a varsity royal tee (Space Jam colorway) in a form to replicate our logo (the skull and guns).
Don’t say I didn’t warn you (as if you can actually read this).

SHOGUN Holiday Preview 1
Black Friday marks the release of our first collection of tees. The designs are influenced by many of our interests, which range from sports, pop culture and toys, just to name a few.
Certain themes we hope to carry over from season to season. One of those would be paying tribute to modern day shoguns, people who are leaders in their craft, whether it be athletics, entertainment or art.
First up is the LaDainian Tomlinson tee. For those of who don’t know, Tomlinson played college football at TCU and helped the Horned Frogs win its first bowl win in 41 years. He led the NCAA in rushing for 2 years straight as a junior and as a senior. In the 2001 draft, Tomlinson was drafted 5th overall by the San Diego Chargers and currently holds the all-time NFL record for single season touchdowns at 31. LT is a modern day warrior whom we consider a true Shogun.
Of course we have a logo tee, this time coming in a nice black on charcoal colorway. They will be available free with a purchase of $75 or more on Black Friday.
We’ve put a lot of time into this first collection, which I hope is evident when you see it. Stay tuned tomorrow for another look at what we have in store.
