It wasn’t just the #Newmanati of the internets who was in the building for the 2nd annual BYOBBQ but also the #Shoeminati
Premium Pete rocked the Doernbechers and SneakGeekz stunted in the LeBron 8 lows ‘Miami Sunset’.
Thanks again to everyone who attended the BYOBBQ and rocked their hotness in the summer heat.
You know that I am about this lifestyle hardbody. I never pay more than $20 for a basic polo player knit. The basic little horsey joint is a white tee for us lifestylers.
My brother Dirty Jerz is still in town so I wanted to put together a little package for him [ll]. I’m giving him a pair of my recent 10061 swag from Timberland along with a nice little striped knit.
Nothing too crazy, but Jerz is always sending me packages after his ROSS comeups.
Peep the price tag on the knit. That is just for me to show Jerz that I am still the king of the lifestyle comeup.
Catch me at Bloomingdale’s on 59th Street as I try to snatch up the last remaining XXL I.T.s from the Ocean Challenge series during the end of season sail, er, sale.
This young brother looks like he is gonna try to cockblock [ll] my acquisitions. Little does he know that I already stashed the XXL pieces I want in the section with the Mediums. LOL.
I had a 20% off coupon to Burlington Coat Factory burning a hole in my hand. BCF sells Timberlands at prices already cheaper than factory outlet stores. The coupon made these futuristic field boots forty bucks even.
Burlington is trying to get me to include them in my shopping rotation by offering coupons and gift cards from their website. I’m posting this pic of the field boots on their ‘Brag About It‘ webpage and I need for y’all to vote for me.
Burlington used to have a store on Park Place near the World Trade Center site where I would cop tons of Polo Ralph Lauren pieces. If I can keep getting Tims at this price I’ll become a customer all over again.
Thanks to you interconnected networks aka the internets for helping me grab the ear of the folks at Timberland. The Boot Camp Clique videos have been seen by some of the higher ups at the brand and my fanboy love is getting its overdue respect.
I was pleasantly surprised to come home one night and see a massive box from the Timberland Company (via Epiphany Marketing) on my doorstep. Even if my box didn’t have my name on it I was still geeked the fux out of my mind to feel like I had been chosen.
The boots are the classic 10061 style. Some folks call these the ‘cheese’ boots. I put these shoes in my top 5 Hip-Hop sneakers of all-time. The boots are built for four(4) season wearability. I’ve seen kids playing basketball and handball in these shoes as well as their ubiquitous presence on countless construction sites.
The 10061s are one of the most enduring, iconic descriptions of the American work ethic next to Levis and a New York Yankees baseball cap. The smell of the nubuck suede is undeniable. The last of the stitches is unbreakable. The silicon rubber lug sole is unstoppable. The 10061 on your feet make you invincible.
The Timberland socks sent with the boots were a supreme touch from the Team Epiphany crew. The socks complete my Timberland 10061 footwear system.
The packaging and the boots were a dope surprise, especially to see that I’m on Timberland’s radar, but the real win was on the inside of these boots. Timberland’s patented Anti-Fatigue insoles are the best detail added to the new 10061. I can wear these boots now like I rock a pair of SB Dunks. All day long.
