I don’t remember the first time I saw the NYC block logo by @john_c_jay, but I do know that it made an impact. I’ve always loved this logo…I’ve considered buying several trash shoes for the logo alone. I don’t know what it is, or why I’m so drawn to it, but it’s something I’m always partial […]
Saw these on @pgknows feed and I was immediately transported back to 2000…the first time I ever bid on a pair of shoes on eBay. I had just made my first successful purchase on eBay – a used copy of @snoopdogg#doggystle on CD (I had the cassette for 5+ years, so I felt emboldened to try my hand at […]
The Beastie Boys video ‘So What Cha Want’ came out in like 1992 or so… I was really a skateboarder from like the age of 5 until the age of 13, and after that point I really started playing A LOT of basketball. The Beastie Boys and this video, IMO, was another one of those […]
The Jordan VI’s were the first pair I ever convinced my mom to buy for me. She bought them for my birthday and I was so amped to get them. A day or two after I got them, my cousins and I walked down to the river and went swimming. As we were about to […]
Because I didn’t have a good solution to my ‘preservation’ problem and was worried about my shoes crumbling away in a deep dark closet, I sold every single pair in this picture. Yes, the OG VI’s. Yes, even the Pigeon Dunks. Yes, even the DQM 90s. Every. Single. Pair. The ones that I miss the […]
‘The Box’ started with a question. It started with a question that I kept asking myself. I kept asking myself because I really couldn’t answer it. And because I couldn’t answer it, I made some rash decisions. Decisions that I still kinda regret to this day – nearly 10 years later. I had spent 48 […]
I would like to sincerely thank @thechickswithkicks for the shoutout on their story as their reach is immense and it’s great to see support from something I put a lot of time and care into. That being said…I realized that I never really thanked or even gave a shoutout to those who have supported throughout the years […]
(12/12) Let me first say that I appreciate the encouragement on yesterday’s post – I had no intention of having that post come off the way it did (I’m over it it was like 3 years ago), I just wanted to share my experience…So what’s the moral of the story? I don’t know that there […]
(9/12) One thing you might not know about products and product delivery – it takes a long time to develop a product and it takes an even longer time to have it created and it takes an even longer time to have it delivered from China. Once I got word from Jay that we were […]
From @bigwallerballer : This is my Chocolate Lab, Kodiak Bear. He’s always been a great dog, but, like a lot of puppies, he really enjoys the taste of sneakers – not just any sneakers – but my favorite sneakers. The first time I wore my Kobe 1 UNC’s, I remember being a bit self conscious – ‘they’re […]
