DJ AM was about to have his own exclusive shoe put out by Nike -- but since his passing, the sneaker king has put a hold on releasing AM's kicks to the public.
We spoke to a rep for Nike, who said AM had been working with Nike for months on a limited edition line of Nike Dunks with his own logo emblazoned on them. We're told the design was complete and approved by AM, but Nike isn't releasing them yet because they are working with his family to figure out the "next step in terms of release."
AM had a well known obsession with Nike kicks -- owning around 700 pairs of 'em.
A sunny Saturday afternoon in L.A. -- the perfect time to get the guys out for a motorcycle ride -- and that's exactly where we found rapper The Game.
All of Melrose Ave. stopped to see The Game's bitchin' new ride; a Can-Am Spider motorcycle. The Game told us everything about his new "spaceship," then stripped for our cameras, exchanging his white T for TMZ's 'Ding Dang Y'all' shirt! Then, pimptabulous "The Bishop" showed up in his lime green Rolls Royce with a gift for The Game -- one-of-a-kind lime green Emerica sneakers with alligator skin and gold detailing. There's no end to The Bishop's good taste in finery!
The Game generously offered to autograph the shoes -- with his new trademark "TMZ" -- and handed it back to us to auction off for charity! His personalized shoes and autographed t-shirt are now available for bidding on eBay. All of the proceeds will benefit "A Place Called Home," a South Central L.A. non-profit organization dedicated to helping at-risk kids achieve their dreams through educational enrichment. The pimp is on!
