Who woulda known Barry Bonds wore FILA cleats? Is it because Nike and Adidas and New Balance didn’t want to have anything to do with the accusations?Sick pair, though. #thesneakersavantrecommends :To rock: Why would you rock someone else’s Player Exclusive cleats?To stock: This is a piece of history. If it’s your pair and you can prove […]
Pretty sure this is a shot taken by @melnniki … I had this pair (diff colorway) growing up and they lasted FOREVER. Pretty sure it’s air alate. Reminds me of the air Max 96 II.#thesneakersavantrecommends :To rock: unless worn regularly (and gently) since 1996, the sole will most likely fall apart.To stock: make sure they’re not crumbling already.

Walking around downtown SF yesterday wearing my @fbccbayarea John Starks jersey and a reporter and his cameraman approached me…no lie – the first question out of his mouth: “Are you a Warriors or Raptors fan?” Um…sir….
And the other pair send by one of my students…it’s a cool color I just have no faith in my ability to rock these. I dunno man, I dunno. @nike X @fearofgod X @jerrylorenzo#thesneakersavantrecommends :To rock: half size down.To stock: If you’re looking to buy a high-grade-worthy pair of Fear of God 1s, make sure to pay attention to the glue […]
Game day! Is Drake gonna be the star of the #torontoraptors again tonight? This is from Game 6 of the last series…this had me dying…I knew I recognized that hoodie but couldn’t place where. ‘Birdie’ aka Drake tryna get that ‘W’ sitting on the sidelines. Paying homage or just so whack it’s a diss? 😂 (If you […]
It’s funny – my students know I’m a sneaker head so they steadily send me links for new releases. I got a link to these the other day from one of my students and I responded with something like ‘too loud’. He asked me ‘what about the other colorway?’ I said ‘could you picture me […]
Game day tomorrow! As a @warriors fan, I’d be ok with Kawhi and the @raptors winning it this year. I mean it’s nice to be on top but we gotta fall at some point…and who better to fall to than someone who deserves it? I’m ABL all day (anyone but LeBron). Image of Kawhi is from @andrewtarcher book ‘Edo ball’
We all know @drake can’t ball, right? 😂So why are the biggest representatives of @jumpman23 not athletes?
Brought my class to Japan Town the other day and came across this super dope book called ‘Edo Ball * The Art of Basketball’ by @andrewtarcher (that came out like 2 years ago). I flipped through most of the pages until I came across a #warrior . Instead I found 2. Google the book if you haven’t seen it. […]
So…these are real. A real collaboration with two real companies came up with these… @commedesgarcons x @nike ‘Heeled Bootie’…fascinating. I remember seeing these and varied (bootleg) versions of @jumpman23 Heels at flea markets for a long time…kinda clever for them to actually release. At $675 retail.If someone asked us to grade a pair of these it would take some serious thought… #thesneakersavantrecommendsTo […]
