SNEAKER FIENDS UNITE!

Monday, June 11th, 2012

You didn’t get the Air Yeezys either? Well don’t despair because Cork Clothing is always on the look out for a comeup and they posted a sick deal right now on the Air Jordan 2011s.

The Air Jordan 2011s come with two(2) interchangeable insoles which determine your overall feel and response while wearing the shoes. I actually own both of these colorways but I’m considering picking up another pair of the white and Black just because the price is $100 off the MSRP

OUTLET UPDATE “JORDAN 2011″

Louisville Factory
1 (502) 893-8199

$69.99 wht/Blk (436771-101)

$79.99 wht/red (436771-602)

Here’s how Cork Clothing’s Nike Outlet Updates work…

Cork posts the images of the shoes with their style number and the Nike Outlet location where they can be found. All you have to do is call the outlet and ask if they have your size. The outlet will ship the shoes to you for the standard UPS shipping rate ($7-$10 depending on distance).

I typically add $13 to the posted price which includes taxes and S/H.

This is how I have been keeping my archives stocked thanks to Cork Clothing.

Now you too can have major plug [ll].

Where Are You Yeezy?!?

Monday, June 11th, 2012

This weekend was pretty tumultuous for sneaker fiends and fans of KanYe West as Nike released the second edition of his signature Air Yeezy sneaker. I wasn’t as enamored with this version as I was for the initial colorways but I couldn’t deny the hype I was feeling watching everyone go ham on TWitter and various sneaker collecting forums prior to the release.

I thought I would use the hype to help someone cash in on sneakers they weren’t actually wearing to acquire the Yeezys. I put the word out that I was looking for the Electro-Lime Foamposite or the LeBron 9 ‘China’ edition and sadly to no avail I was left without the Yeezys or the shoes I really wanted. Thru all the strum and drang people did copp the Yeezys tho’.

Shouts to all the hypebeasts like myself who keep the culture alive.

Special shouts to On The Sneak Tip for bringing out their fancy camera to film the goings ons.

Super special shouts to the dimepiece hypebeast who was attracted to the MTV mic flag like a moth to a candle

If you didn’t see the ‘Where Are You Yeezy?!?’ parts 1 and 2 here they go.

Thank me later.

We Run This Town…

Sunday, June 10th, 2012

I’ve been shooting so much video I haven’t had the chance to really drop any decent blog posts. I’ll make up for that this afternoon tho’ while I sit here at the editing console all day.

Hopefully our Metropolitans can avoid the sweep at Junkie Stadium in the Bronx.

I don’t have the Yeezy’s but I have something I wanted even more (pics soon come) and wait til you see the footage from the Yeezy 2 campouts. #WhereAreYouYeezy?!? LOL

Speaking of sneakers… Lebron James and the Miami Heat are in the final round of the Association’s post-season tournament and they will face off with Kevin Durant and his Thunder. The real question tho’ is who has the better signature shoe? LBJ or KD?

Stay logged on because I’m gonna go thru my list of FREE shit popping off this week in NYC. Obamas (open bars) included.

INTERNETS!!!

Get Ready 4 Combat…

Tuesday, June 5th, 2012

Dropping science with the irrepressible Artie Lange. He thought all these Black dudes were a rap gang. LOL

My homey Felipe Gordone got a chance to hang with Combat Jack, Premium Pete, Just Blaze and Matty Raz at this week’s podcast of the Combat Jack Show. The Combat Jack Show has moved into some new digs in the Radio City complex. He tells me good times were had as usual.

The special guest this week is Def Jam’s soulfilled conscious rapper Big KRIT touting the release of his first studio album with the legendary record label. ‘Live From The Underground’ is in stores now. If we get a chance we’ll drop a review on the album, but for now, get ready for Combat…

I, Too, Sing America Lifestyle…

Tuesday, June 5th, 2012

I, too, sing America.

I am the darker brother.
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes,
But I laugh,
And eat well,
And grow strong.

Tomorrow,
I’ll be at the table
When company comes.
Nobody’ll dare
Say to me,
“Eat in the kitchen,”
Then.

Besides,
They’ll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed–

I, too, am America.

-Langston Hughes

Sneaker Fiends Unite District chapter president JaiSlayer sends us some pics from his upcoming Independence Day aka Juneteenth outfit architecture and it reminds me why I also rock hard with the freedom lifestyle.

I, too, sing America.
