  Finally … Nike Sportswear landed in Malaysia on Saturday with the opening of the first official Nike Sportswear store at Gurney Plaza’s new wing Penang.

  If you didn’t read it already, my preview about this was here.

  

  I’m happy for Jerasia (the company that owns this and a few other Nike stores in Malaysia) as they have been taking a much more active interest in the lifestyle aspect of Nike footwear lately and the product they have been bringing into their Pavilion store has been top notch.

  Nike fans in Penang should be glad that someone is bringing good shit in at reasonable prices and I hope Jerasia keeps upping the ante on the kicks they bring in.

  

  Air Jordan 6 Rings … hmm … should I?

  I wanted to send my buddies some congratulatory flowers but I think a normal flower arrangement is so not my style so I went to find my good friend Bryan from Ohara Florist to see if he could make a custom flower arrangement for me:

  

  We worked out how best to do it and I quickly made up some reference artwork for him to refer to and away he went! The final result was pretty neat and judging by the sheer number of people who were taking photos with the flowers, I’d say my gift to Nike Sportswear was pretty well received.

  

  My favorite sneakerpimps Sean (L) and Carlos (R) below … thanks for always giving the me the heads up!

  

  They told me that a lot of people went down to the shop really early in the morning to cop the exclusive Dunks after reading my blog so I’m glad Penang sneakerheads came to support what is soon going to become the best place to get your kicks fix on the island.

  

  During the time I was the shop I was introduced by Carlos to someone from Nike and he asked me where I bought my shoes from … hmm … He didn’t seem to notice the impossible to find Jordan XX3 All-Stars and P-Rod SB Futuras running around the shop which are faaar more heat worthy than my cheesy pink kicks … tee hee

  Congratulations again to Jerasia Fashion S/B and I hope you keep the good stuff coming!
