Yeah, that was me at SneakerCON last week holding a pair of Dikembe Mutombo sized ‘Mutombo’ kicks. Dikembe was in the building as well since adidas sponsored the shindig billed as the world’s best Buy-Sell-Trade sneaker convention and exposition.

New York’s Sneaker Boom

SneakerNews, he folks who organize the event, asked me to come thru and do some correspondence with the people. You already know I love the chance to connect with the people. I’m a hypebeast at heart and SneakerCON is a celebration of all things hypebeasty.

Where are you Yeezy?!? Yeezys and BRed XIs for sale. Very, very, very near deadstock. Worn once only. Niccka please!

One of the hottest new trends in the game is re-soling shoes where the foan has deteriorated past wear. Pretty good work on these OG IVs.

Supreme accessories are definitely for hypebeasts tho’

Shouts to all customizers in the game now getting they bread. Sneaker heads wasn’t feeling customs a few years ago when I dropped my Dirty Pair Dunks on they asses.

Now the game done changed and customizers can command stacks for their efforts.

At the end of the day there is still nothing better to a sneaker fiend than a female sneaker fiend.

Clean lines from top to bottom is how I have always interpreted Japanese architecture. No space is wasted in usage or consideration. Neat and well ordered is some shit to live your life by.

I started this ‘Fit by copping the Tokyo knit in TJ Maxx. $60 wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t my usual greatness of > $40.

The RLX shorts were $40. Still not me at my best, but definitely back on my grind.

Premium Pete blessed me with the I *heart* Sneakers snapback and Timeless Truth str8 laced me with their timeless TT logo tee printed on a Polo RL crewneck.

The Internets gifted me with the Air Jordan retro XIs.

Thank you interconnected networks.

In Search Of The Holy Grail…

the holy grizzly

Instead of buying a new Samsung phone I used my Complex digit to secure one of the jewels in my POLO RL holy grail. I’ve been sweating this jacket ever since I saw it on the streets.

The first dude I saw rocking this piece was a white diddy bopping down Fulton Mall. I tracked sonn down to ask him about the jacket but then he bolted from me like he was try’na escape a jack move. He ain’t even know I wasn’t one that flex. Maybe twenty five years ago, but not in 2010.

I bumped into a Black kid on the New Lots line who had the jacket and he said he copped it while he worked for Ralph Lauren. To my dismay he said they ain’t make the jacket in an XXL. I’m glad and lucky he was dead wrong.

Dude on the eBay system wanted $325 for the joint.

I got my jewel.

“Put ya’ hands up in the air if ya’ fell me!
Eff ’em all day, eff ’em all night.
We don’t love these ho’s.”

Peep the R.K.O. Albee movie theater before it was demolished to make way for the Albee Square Mall.

Brooklyn done changed just to remain the same.

We’ve been trying to get this Hempstead, Long Island mc on our show for 3 years and we finally got him. Talk about history, from being a kid in Public Enemy’s Bomb Squad studio to rocking out with Busta Rhymes’ Flip Mode Squad, street hustling to going solo and dropping the Reloaded classic, this veteran ain’t no new jack, Jack. Marci also talks about being an exec and label co-owner, and why a whore’s clitoris tastes like porridge.
