Some might call it ‘market research’, I’d call it ‘spending quality time with my kids’. But I wanted to give y’all a heads up. I visited an ACTUAL museum the other day (@oaklandmuseumca ) and they ACTUALLY use 1/4-inch display cases for the majority of their artifacts. The pic you see above is an ACTUAL pic […]
“Howdy Pardner! There’s a snake in my boots!” Easily my favorite huarache since the Mowabb pack…when I first saw them I knew I had seen the color combo elsewhere but couldn’t put my finger on it. I like how Nike called this one the ‘campfire pack’. I mean, I’ve camped hundreds of times and never […]
So the same way Supreme heads go batshnit over Supreme, I kinda go the same over the NYC logo. I’m not willing to spend more than a few bucks over retail for anything, though, so it’s not in the same realm. BUT. I have seriously considered every single product I’ve ever come across that has […]
I think I bought this T-Shirt in Reno, Nevada, of all places. What’s funny is that I bought two of these shirts. Like what’s the point of buying two of the same shirt? I gave one away a few months ago. I’m an unabashed sucker for this logo. Nike must have a couple hundred logos […]
So…back to ‘the logo’. The ‘NYC’ pair is the pair that made me think about even creating the box…I told this story about the @john_c_jay NYC Block logo a few posts ago…so it’s great for me to see them in the actual box. it’s funny because…I don’t think AF1 Mid’s were really ever a thing. Lows were […]
(cont’d from last post). I tried cleaning the scuff off, to no avail, and I tried wearing them a couple of times, but couldn’t find any clothes I owned that felt did them justice. So I sold them. For $225. After I sold them, though, I kept looking for them and all I kept seeing […]
I want to say that the first pair of Huaraches I ever purchased was in like 2010…shortly after I moved back to California from Brooklyn. The wife and I took a trip back to Brooklyn one summer and I seriously think I picked up 3 pairs of the triple blacks. It was the first pair […]

Entry submission by @nysneakergame :I was 11yrs old when I first got into basketball..

Plus I really […]
The Air Raids are the shoes that had a hand in me learning about Malcolm X. Yeah. Sounds hella stupid. But it’s true. For those of y’all that are old enough to remember, Malcom X was REALLY popular around 1991-93. It all started with the @officialspikelee movie ‘Malcolm X’… Around that time, these ‘X’ baseball hats started […]
