There Were White Nike MAG Samples Made

by Brian Betschart

Nike MAG White Sample

Did you know before the Nike Mag released in 2011 that the brand actually made samples? Doesn’t seem to farfetched as it’s usually apart of the process before a shoe actually releases. What is odd though is the sample pair that was created was a White Nike Mag.

Leaking this image today was Nick DePaula which shows an army of Nike Mag’s including the white sample. As you can see the shoes sport an all white base with hints of gold.

We honestly don’t foresee the White Nike Mag to actually release. We feel that the people at Nike will make sure if the Air Mag does release again even after 2015, the will come in it’s original state as far as colors are concerned. Are you a fan of the white sample? We know in the past various colors were customized but not actually produced by Nike. Nevertheless, what would you feel if a brand new colorway launched for the Nike Mag?

Can You Guess What Beer Inspired This Nike SB Dunk High Release?

by Patrick Johnson

The Nike SB Dunk is back and bolder than ever thanks to this new pair featuring a Metallic Silver upper. Initially thought to be yet another reference to The Wizard of Oz, instead Nike Skateboarding takes inspiration from Steel Reserve, an American Malt Liquor beer brewed by Steel Brewing Company in Irwindale, California. The metallic silver is an intricate part of the beer bottle’s packaging as accents of black land on the Swoosh branding, laces, and midsole to allow for a Challenge Red to truly stand out. Check out more of the latest Nike SB Dunk High below and pick up your pair from select spots today.

by Edgar Alvarez

You don't need perfect vision to see that HTC's latest smartphone, the One A9, is nearly identical to Apple's iPhone 6 and 6s. But the Taiwan-based company swears Apple copied its design first, not the other way around, pointing to its One M7 and M...

MythBusters to bust their last myth next season

by Stephen Lambrechts

With 2,950 experiments undertaken and 248 episodes in the can, the team at the beloved show MythBusters will officially be calling it a day at the end of next season.

Entertainment Weekly reports that the 14th and final season of MythBusters will premiere on the Discovery Channel on January 9, 2016.

According to the exclusive interview, stars Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman have known the end of the line was coming for a while now, and have set out to send the show off on a high note, with the pair determined to "find the most awesome example of each category and build on our past history."

A fitting farewell

Savage also stated that the show will "pay homage to this thing that's changed our lives," and that the "finale will go out with a bang, as everyone would expect."

In celebration of its longest running show, Discovery will be airing a huge marathon of every MythBusters episode from December 23, 2015.

As to what the pair will be doing next, Hyneman teased that they exec producing a new scripted show at CBS, and while he couldn't specify what it was about, Hyneman did say that "it's going to knock some people's socks off."
