DETROIT -- Former NBA star Derrick Coleman opened the "SNYX Sneaker Studio" Saturday in the neighborhood in which he grew up.

The store carries all Nike merchandise, including warm-ups and top-of-the-line athletic sneakers. Shoes range in price from $75 to $280.

The store is exclusive to Michigan. The concept was originated by Coleman's associates, who own similar stores in Compton, Calif., and Chicago, Ill.

In addition to the "SNYX Sneaker Studio," Coleman plans to develop a strip mall, which will include a "Hungry Howies," a car wash, a barber shop, a laundry, and a bill-paying center.

Once the development is completed, approximately 20 jobs will be created.

"SNYX Sneaker Studio" is located in Detroit at 8961 Linwood Ave. Store hours are Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m. until 7 p.m.; Friday and Saturday, 10 a.m. until 8 p.m.; and Sunday, noon until 6 p.m.
