Back to school was always an exciting time and an excuse to stock up on school supplies, but Nike makes it all the more fun. While you're out shopping for new notebooks, you can do it in the comfort of the 'Grade School' pack. The pack includes the 'Composition' Dunk (colored like a Mead Composition Book), the 'Crayon' Dunk Hi (with the recognizable Crayola colors), and the 'L-R Scantron' Blazer (as if you don't recognize the No. 2-only bubbles). If you don't get giddy over school supplies, maybe the shoes will do the trick.

This latest Nike Blazer design features great graphics and even greater colors. The dynamic illustrations really pop due to the punchy reds, pinks, and purples used, but the white highlights and black toebox, midsole, and swoosh keep the kicks from being too psychotic.

Less is more in these doleful times. But, what if we add a little more to the "less"? The 1966 classic VANS Authentic canvas trainers has reinvented itself with some simple changes- switching the colors from upper to the lower. Instead of donning the usual colored canvas upper, the colors have now migrated to the shoes' waffle soles. These shoes will still go with everything you pair your plain white kicks with, but with an extra pop of energy. Who says basic has to be boring. Bring a little color back to the hearts and souls of your whites at oki-ni.
