Sittin back scrolling through social media, I started thinking about the things about the sneaker world that just grind my gears. I’m assuming this happens in all fields, all interest groups, all areas of all aspects of life…I was trying to think of the things that absolutely KILL me about the sneaker world. You can […]

Goodbye, my friend. It was good getting to know you. Enjoy the journey to your new home. From China to the USA to Brazil and the Olympics and back the USA for a brief little stint in my office and then off to another location east of the Mississippi for your final home…it was good […]
Speaking of Supreme – how are y’alls mini-cacti doing? Anyone have a mini-cacti that is no longer a mini-cacti? Anyone have a Supreme mini-cacti that grew into a full grown cactus? Prices have remained relatively stable – looks like the market has them at around $25 almost 2 years after they initially released for $18. […]
Sole swap Posted by @Govrn_ Forget about the bacon and eggs 😂 this is an interesting idea for a sole swap. I think the drop on the 90 sole – it has a higher heel than toe, so don’t know how I’d feel about an almost zero drop, but it comes out pretty damn when executed properly […]
OK so this dude @esc_nicklaus put me onto game – that big zipper hoodie most likely was a @miharayasuhiro_offical . That big zipper is somewhat comical but also…dope. I found one on sale for $4612 but only had $4611 and dude wouldn’t budge. If this grading sh!t takes off, maybe one day I can afford it… That hoodie had […]
3/3 I saw this pic floating around the other day. It’s supposedly the upcoming Nike SB Dunk Low inspired by Grateful Dead Bears. And I’ll be damned if this sh!t isn’t straight FIRE. Having gone to that last show – I saw a million different Grateful Dead logos but didn’t see even ONE shirt with […]
Looks like for the day after ‘national sneaker grading day’, was a flop. We missed out on one of the best air maxes of all time. The rumors of a re-release were just that – rumors. Bummer.I’ve owned a couple pairs of these – the pair I own now has been out of commission for […]
So I guess oversized outerwear things are like a legitimate thing. Chalk it up to my age. I’m only 39, but I guess in the streetwear game I might as well be 66. Check out out this hoodie I found on @grailed . Oversized…attached…hand warmers? I think the french word for them is ‘gloves’ but I’m not […]
I had the opportunity of working with @joshluber in the past but kinda blew it. The stats thing we were working on was WAY over my head and I was a total noob. But he’s really managed to build a goddamn behemoth in the industry. Nothing short of amazing. I screenshotted this pic of him a while […]
2/3 So…once again, the branding. Having grown up in the mountains of Northern California and having spent a great deal of time with my aunt & uncle and my cousins, I saw NO shortage of Grateful Dead branding. I come from a family of hippies. My dad introduced me to Jimi Hendrix at a VERY […]
