Yay! You too can become a sneaker influencing millionaire! So I’ve been getting a bunch of emails from companies insisting that I’m well on my way to becoming a ‘sneaker influencer’ and they want to work with me for something like ONLY $400/week to help me grow my Instagram following. ONLY $400 A week!!!!! I […]
A few people hit me up asking about the inspiration on the colorway for the Nomo’s I posted the other day so here y’all go…I believe the first time I saw this colorway (or something very similar) was on the OG Nike Air Huaurache Carnivores (the one on the bottom). Can’t say I felt like […]
(1/2) A not-very-compelling-story…Pulled up to @buffaloexchange last night before running to the shop to pick up my shipments. Came across a pair of @undercover_lab x @nike React 87’s on the racks and was a bit skeptical as I didn’t recognize the colorway…not that that’s ever stopped me before – I frequently come across samples and shoes unreleased to the general public […]
Caption: “who wants some breakfast?” For those that don’t know – these are called ‘Bacons’…one of the most sought after Air Max 90s of all time. I, for one, am happy with a retro – both OG pairs I own/owned have cracks in the soles. Thanks for the greatest AM90 of all time @123dortiz!@pgknows would be proud […]
Head on over to Sara Mart for a 1 Euro pair of the latest @virgilabloh@off____white x @nike#airmaxplus 😂 @ronsrareair@bubblekoppe@karl.lashnikov 😂 Serious question, though, how in the hell can they afford to sell these for less than the price of a regular sized pack of M&Ms?
1998 – I spent some time debating on exactly where to start…I was listening to ‘The Business of Hype’ the other day by @jeffstaple and he had @louiswcolon3 of FILA on and Lou was talking about how he grew up at a time when there weren’t really ‘sneakerheads’, there were just people who were into shoes. I think Lou […]
So…the NYC block logo…would I even give a damn about it if I hadn’t spent some seriously formative years in New York? Probably not. I moved to NYC about a year after I graduated college, I got my first apartment in NYC, I got my first ‘real’ job in NYC. I bought my first ‘real’ […]
I dug up this old pic of me wearing the first ‘sneakerhead’ sneakers I ever got. Jordan VI Infrareds that my mom bought me for my 11th birthday. I detailed my attraction to these shoes a few weeks ago…In this pic, I’m holding my dog ‘Sugar’ and we’re at San Francisco Airport. I think my […]
For all my San Francisco Jordan heads – y’all ever see this shirt? That’s the 4-1-5 …Sick idea imo…shared with me by @darkelljoanahson
I remember this day vividly…It was February, and the girlfriend and I went down by the Coney Island housing projects so she could take her New York drivers test…I knew there’d be quite a bit of time that I’d be sitting around doing nothing so I decided to dress warm (couldn’t forget the #steeptech) and bring […]
