"A king answers to no one"
LeBron James, Kevin Durant, and Kobe Bryant are without question three of the most powerful forces in the NBA, traveling to unforeseen heights that few other have ever reached.

The Nike Zoom Kobe VII, Nike Zoom KD IV, and Nike LeBron 9 all feature the inter-galactic imagery with gleaming glow-in-the-dark outsoles and unique mission patches adorning each distinct shoe. The Nike Basketball 2012 All-Star Collection will become available on February 25th on the eve of the All-Star Weekend’s main event at select Nike Basketball retailers, so continue reading for a detailed look at this astronomical collection below.

The modern dandy gets a loud shout out in Ana Locking’s 2012 Fall/Winter collection, with quintessential dapper looks featuring snugly tailored three-piece suits, feather-adorned derby hats and patent penny loafers. However, the collection heavily tiptoes on the edge of coxcomb extravagance with the neon/plaid color-blocking and polka dot details – complete with fake carnations – creating a look that is completely excessive and wearable at the same time.

If you can’t make bank off distributing other artists’ digital works, why not take a step back and utilize their signature styles for a physical product? Of course, that’s not exactly it went down for Swizz Beatz with MegaUpload, but there is indeed a connection between the DOJ’s post-SOPA takedowns and the Reebok Affili’art Collection. It wasn’t even a week ago that Neil Young was quoted as equating internet distribution with radio, and that kind of broader access to art is exactly what the Jean-Michel Basquiat x Reebok Pump Omni Lite and the rest of the posthumous collabo do for The Radiant Child’s notable works. There are two Omnis (three including the ‘Undiscovered Genius’ joints we showed you last week), one Top Down and a new Freestyle for ladies that make up the spring/summer 2012 set, and you can see all of them in more images after the jump before you grab them from select RBK retailers. via Provider
