Nike Sportswear's love for the vulcanized sole has transformed classics from the Dunk to the Air Magma. Nike Flight Lite has been vulcanized as the Auto Flight. This colorway of the kicks comes in black patent leather and nubuck with red safari accents. The kicks are said to be exclusive to the House of Hoops, however in Japan you can find them at LTD.
We recently posted that Footlocker's House of Hoops was expanding in the US. We then incorrectly reported that the sneaker shop was opening in Asia but that turned out to be a Nike Basketball shop.
Today we have some very exciting news about the shop that is known for limited and exclusive releases. The shop is opening in two European capitals. In London the shop will open on Oxford Street and in the Les Halles section of Paris.
For the openings House of Hoops Harlem is getting in two colorways of the Nike Hyperize based on the pro basketball teams in both Paris and London. The London Capital's pair comes in a university blue, black and white colorway while the Paris Levallois pair comes in a blue sapphire, white and sport red colorway.

The House of Hoops is part of the huge network of Footlocker sneaker shops. Being so big with locations in the major US cities, the shop is given exclusive footwear.
The latest Nike exclusive at the House of Hoops is the Nike Blazer in a black and white colorway. The sneaker defines itself with a subtle pattern that covers the majority of the black areas of the kicks.
This past friday the 10th of October 2008 Footlocker's House of Hoops opened its west cost location. The shop is located at Beverly Center Mall on the west side of Los Angeles. The shop will no doubt be a hub for Nike, Jordan and Converse exclusive kicks.
