PrintJames Stewart is looking for the next design to appear on his Nike boots, so a design competition called Red Bull Rubber & Sole was launched to solicit new ideas. James met the seven designers, hailing from Indianapolis, St. Louis, Detroit and Chicago at Got SOLE? Boutique in Indianapolis before the Supercross race. He narrowed the field down to his two favorite submissions.
That's where you come in. James needs help to decide between his top two design choices, and he wants you to help. Check out his picks here and vote for the one you prefer via text message, and look for James to be rocking the design at the St. Louis Supercross race on April 9.
The winner will be selected soon, so vote via text today!

Troy Lee Designs/Lucas Oil Honda’s Cole Seely is a man of many talents— skateboarding, BMX, import drifting … and he’s pretty good at this motocross thing, too. Page 156 .
Look for the verified symbol 
Impulse Studios
Both are hideous
hey jonny rebel, racist much? you're a moron.
Is there a design that will prevent crashing? LOL maybe some wings???
This should be the least of his concerns, never saw RC doing bull like this and distracting himself from the task at hand.
He needs to focus on the race before he can pick a boot design. I think the winner of this title is gonna be someone unexpected. may be Chad, Trey or RD.
Do you think Decoster, Hanna, Johnson, Stanton, McGrath or Carmichael ever did any of this garbage? No, they were too busy working hard. I don't think its James' fault, but this sport is turning into a joke. Its like walking into the pits at a supercross now versus ten years ago. No bs back then.
He has lost the focus, and the real reason we race, In my opinion people are throwing to much money at this kid and he hasn’t produce the goods, but they keep lining his pockets with so much cash he doesn’t know what to do with it all, I just don’t understand it.
Maybe he should pick a new bike design. This new Yamaha ain't workin.
@jonny rebel that some good eatin man. Matter of fact your mother is cooking me some this weekend.
lol @ you all.
Claiming that James has "lost focus" and doesn't deserve the money that is given to him. The majority of the comments posted on this website are a complete joke...
In conclusion, however, both shoe designs are hideous.
Pick a Gearne boot and get away from the ugliest boot ever made. this isnt hip-hop or a dance club. Put on a normal boot and go freakin' race..
@AlainL. Do you think Stewie earned his money in 2010?? I sure dont..
jonny reb , still fightin the civil war 150 YRS LATER YOU IGNORANT PIECE OF CRAP. Stewart can do what he wants , theres still six races left and as we've seen anything can happen , EXCEPT jonny rebs brain growing to the size of a pea. STAY OUT OF THIS SPORT,before someone brings you up to date.
Why don't they just make a design of a color brown mixed in with some sand and clay because he can't stay off the ground:)
They should put a nice image of the block pass Reed put on him in Atlanta, then maybe he will have a reminder of what it means to "not leave the door open' means.
What a bunch of bitter AND jealous morons some of you people are!!! What's it like being perfect, jerks?? "Bd"...if you get sick, or injured at work, do you still want to receive a paycheck??? Are you saying you would defer your wages in such an instance?? Didn't think so!!
You guys are all crazy ,James is aPro Athlete All of his Sponsers Want him to do promotional stuff, I have got a whole bunch of Mc Grath toys and Promo stuff , RC too, All the top Guys do it, From Hanah on up ...Lets all go back to the 70s , when you saw one race a year on TV, and most people never heard of it, Right now James is the Star of the sport , Remeber RC and MC on Leno . A lot of these comments come from People that must be new to the Sport , and have little Knowledge. James will win more races , He is actually faster then he has ever been , Windam said James either WINS OR GOES FOR IT ! Then he said thats what it is all about , James allways goes for it ..
What's the difference? Who cares?
More wasted time with JS7. JS7 can ride he can't 'race', what a dissapointment. Soon to be, 2/11 JS7. Go RV!
Who cares to make him MORE money, come on, ( ) OFF
@FAN107 dumbest comment on this post. Stewart is a two time champion and he can't race. Stewart has one more races than anyone since RC retired and he can't race. What a freaking moron.
Boy oh Boy Racer x really brings out the Supercross Morons. 80% of the people posting comments on this site are either haters or don't have a freaking clue. What the hell is wrong with James designing a boot. Athletes in other sports have their own shoes. It's a great marketing strategy but most of you morons are too stupid to understand that.
all these people talking crap when the guy is just trying to hav some fun with his gig with nike and hes nailed to the cross for it FREAKING AMAZING! man the guy just can't win even if he won the champinship after all these hard falls and he stilll keeps getting back up fights for it and keeps going. still has that desire to win, people would still say he is the worst thing ever. mind blowing man and you call your selvs fans of this sport no guy out on that track has the heart of a racer like stewart, its a fact but go ahead and say he sucks its the norm now anyways.
@serious?, you must not read these posts often as there are some real doozies that never fail to amaze!!!
i like the one on the right but the one left is cool to. but the on the right james should wear. james crash look like it hurt bad. hope james is fine
It just makes me shake my head, the majority of posts in this column, have nothing to do with the column. NOTHING
As far as I know the Nike 6.0 mx/sx boot is not even availible for sale.
Perhaps this just a brilliant marketing scheme.
And as far as him making money there's an old saying "Make hay when the sunshines, cause the rains will come"
I agreee, James needs to stay focused on what he used to be great at, racing a motorcycle. Given he is now an unofficial team owner whose helping manage his interest? Big James?
At least Reedy has Dave Osterman. I used to be a big JS7 supporter but I'm hoping the dingo can defy the odds and whip another American title off the rest of the best on a "privater" ride. Go two-two (sounds like a frigg'n kids train) Motorsports!
PS: Oh yeah, the shoe on the right (but agree, camo the dirt with brown guys) with a JS7 brand logo footprint so at least he'll leave his brand everywhere.
They can print "4th fastest man on the planet" on his Nike's, based on the current point standings.
Maybe something with a lawn dart theme.love my tech 8s(white of course)
Those boots are so ugly alpinestars are the way to go !!
With the way he has been riding lately...A STILLETTO should be in order!!! I wonder if they are legal in AMA competition! C'MON JAMES!!!!! WHAT UP!! Is this a classic MELTDOWN...from the pressure cooker that is the media?
