Day 26 x Eight2Six. We had to check my sources on this one when the homies at HipHopRevenues told us about this…and it’s 100% legit. Day 26, of Diddy’s “Making the Band” has teamed with heels.com to exclusively release a line of woman’s high heel shoes called Eight2Six. The line of three shoes are to celebrate Day 26’s track “High Heels” and each is priced at $99.99 and can be purchased at Heels.com. This goes down as one of the most “unique” partnerships we have reported on.
Back in June, DJ AM told the world his excitement about designing an upcoming exclusive Nike Dunk for the shoe company.

Raekwon x Asics. It’s pretty hard to turn down free shoes…even Asics. Raekwon pushes the sneaker line in this promo piece which is tied to Asics’ stunt/promotion of creating the world’s largets Lite Brite. What does that have to do with shoes? Nothing. But it’s cool. Via: ProHipHop
