Salutes to high school. For most of us that will be the greatest experience of our lives. It was in Brooklyn Technical High School I developed my keen sense of swag.

I love to pull colors together from all walks of life.

The Lifestyle is all declarative with sashes and numerals all over.

Royal blue and yellow are my two favorite complementary colors. The blue is the steady sound while the yellow brings the pop.

Peep the Brazil series mundial de beisbol chapeau. Excuse my fake patois, that’s a New Era pro model for the Brazil state team in the Worlds Series.

The kicks are Air Jordan retro 5s in a colorway representing Michael Jordan’s alma mater Elmsley Laney high school in North Carolina. I needed these desperately along with the Shanghai 5s to fully express my blue/yellow outfit architecture.

I’m hyped to meet the Mets next season. I feel like this young team has a chance to become legit again in the very near future. I’m glad they kept their skipper Terry Collins on board.

Here’s a clean little outfit I built I’m calling ‘Opening Day 2014’

It will prA’Li be too brick outside to rock this for the first pitch but I will mos def have this on for one of my days at the Shea.

Macy’s clearance items along with a WOW! pass coupon. No matter what happens on the field I will be winning and grinning.

SneakerCON is the premiere Buy-Sell-Trade sneaker convention. It brings out everybody in the culture and beyond. Think of it as a traveling sneakerhead circus. Resellers, vendors, customizers and kids getting their hustle on.

Thousands of ‘heads convene for the love of kicks.

And this wasn’t even a pic of the entire venue…

Sneakermoms are the shit. Without them we couldn’t be sneaker fiends.

Grandpa swag surfin’.

40 Below Trooping…

Das_EFX_40

The Timberland Iditarod Superboot also known as the ’40 Below’ will be the zenith of their 40th anniversary releases, but don’t sleep on ANY of the boots dropping in this pack. Especially the World Hikers.

I certainly understand how mythical the 40 Below boot is. They were worn by Tupac in ‘Juice’ and Das EFX before that. Classic NYC street style is always in fashion.
