What Is Love?

1991 was one of the greatest years in sneakers for me. Mainly because I had wild bread to spend on kicks and other gear. And also because it was prA’Li the twilight for tennis shoes design and technology. Basketball shoes were so dominant by now and there was no player more dominent than Michael Jordan.

Jordan twisted and tumbled to win his first of a half dozen Association championships wearing the Air Jordan VI. This was the first Jordan that I bought for myself even before he won the title. I copped it because it looked so ill. It wasn’t a sneaker. The Air Jordan VI was a sportscar built for driving thru lanes. It reminds me of a 911 Carrera with the rear spoiler and blown out wheel wells.

The Air Jordan VI will be dropping in several colorways this year, new and classic. I got my mitts on the release called the Infrared 23s. I think I’ll call them my little red Corvettes

NBA-All-Star-Game-2014

You know I’m a beast for the hype and I got hyped for the Air Jordan XX8 being released for the NBA All-Star game going down in New Orleans. The Air Jordan XX8 is the lightest shoe ever in the flagship line’s storied history. It’s also one of the cheapest top performance shoes on the market.

I’m so impressed with the Jordan XX8 I’m going to copp the style exclusively for the rest of the year. And I really mean that.

IF

Nostalgia sell everything in our world and sneakers are prA’Li on the top of the list. Converse (owned by Nike) isn’t going to miss the opportunity to remind sneakerheads about the noise they have made as a legacy sneaker brand. Converse isn’t JUST Chuck Taylors. Sure, they are mostly Chuck Taylors but they are one of the OG signature basketball shoe brands.

The shoes I have here are called the Aero Jam. They were worn by Larry Johnson early in his career while he played in Charlotte. Jimmy Jazz sent me a ridiculous package with these sneakers I didn’t feature in this video so shouts to them for that hookup. Tell me what you think about this shoe. Would you fux with it or nah?
