So this @shoepalace by my apartment is housed in an old community Bank or credit union. Normally they have the vault locked up (and you can look in through the bars), but the other day they were cleaning it up or something and actually left it open and no one was guarding it. I strolled right in, […]

Took a lil trip to the @shoepalace in my neighborhood and took a look at those Jordan Jumpman Zs (the zipper 14 knockoffs) and was confronted with sloppy glue stains around each and every ‘tooth’. I’m not gonna say it’s easy gluing these shoes (I’ve had my shared of terrible reglues) but this is crazy. Like every […]

Amongst other things…$55 Flea Market pickups. Not eem sure of the name or nickname. Teaching the kids about gerrymandering today…Kinda chilly out but glad it’s not raining.

Pretty significant heel drag on this pair of Air Max 95 sneakerboots…I loved this colorway – I wish I understood standard gait so I could comprehend how something like this happens…I’m constantly shocked at the amount of pairs I see with heel drag. I’ve seen PLENTY of pairs of Jordan 1s with heel drag so […]

The dreaded ‘ankle crease’ on that same pair of Oly 6s…that same strange staining pattern around the ‘pump’ holes. How would you grade a flaw like this?

Heart broken. 💔 What would y’all call this damage? Name that shoe!

What makes one collector more interesting than another? I’d say there’s like maybe 10 sneaker collectors out there that I find extremely interesting… @mr_redking is one of those collectors. The collection he primarily shows on IG is Pumas and any time I have a question about Puma I hit him up. I know he’s also purchased a […]
