Check this out…this is an early version of an idea I had for sneaker preservation – I wanted to create custom molds out of plastic for each pair of shoes.So my cousin and I built this wooden box and glued/taped the pegboard to the top. We sealed it up pretty good (we used plastic on […]
I’ve gotta say these Westbrook’s (the ones on the bottom) are much more intriguing to me than the Jordan signature XXX3 (top). If JB would go back to that XX9/XXX pod-sole style (like on the Westbrook), I think these sigs would look way better. This I probably the first time I’ve been more into an […]

Can anyone name this one?
