All Day I Dream About Sneakers…
Thursday, November 24th, 2011MERRY #KICKSMAS FROM FOOTLOCKER…
Tuesday, November 22nd, 2011Complex Magazine invited Premium Pete and myself to an exclusive preview of FootLocker’s holiday sneaker programme. The event was like a class reunion of sneakerhead blogs from TheShoeGame’s G-Roc to SneakerNews YuMing and even NiceKicks was represented up in that piece.
Don’t get it twisted FootLocker is the beast in the sneaker game and they don’t play fair. Along with all the hyped up Jordan releases slated for the rest of the year FootLocker reps are talking about emptying their warehouses of all their deadstock heat.
Shit will definitely be going down starting this weekend and I’ll be at the Black Friday lineup at the FootLocker flagship on 34th Street. I’m still undecided on whether I will copp the Air Jordan retro ‘Black Cement’ 3s or the Nike retro ‘Tim Duncan’ Forceposites. Decisions…
All Day I Dream About Sneakers…
Tuesday, November 22nd, 2011I got a box from adidas this weekend with their latest casual hightop basketball shoe – The LQC. This stands for Lightweight Quality Comfort. The shoe reminds me of a Supra Skytop in that casual sneaker vein. I don’t think the LQC is really for playing basketball in, but more for chilling out and going top the movies.
I’m down with adidas sending me shoes so I can kick it with y’all (you see what I just did?), but I’m just waiting for the all leather Rod Laver to return so I can BEAST out and copp 10 pairs.
Deadstock Dallas At The Brooklyn Flea…
Sunday, November 13th, 2011My homey PaperChasr did a drop over at Obsessive Sneaker Disorder about my Brooklyn Flea exploits.
Next weekend is the LAST Saturday outdoors for the Flea and likely the last time this year ‘Deadstock Dallas’ will be available offline. Come thru and get some hot apple cider and chill with the big homey.
Shaz IllYork x Spit Gemz = The Opposition…
Thursday, November 10th, 2011One of the main reasons I fux with Shaz IllYork is because he takes me back to the days when you could see a rapper in the streets or on the subway. Or copping a tag on a lamppost. Shaz IllYork is soooooo New York it’s not even a game. He lives the classic emcee lifestyle which is to be of the people. Not in some crazy limousine wearing sunglasses while surrounded by bodyguards.
Shaz linked up with Brooklyn spitter Spit Gemz to form The Opposition. With a group name this menacing these two are gonna have to put in some serious work on the microphone. Shaz recognizes how important the visual element of music is currently and he’s already directed several videos for The Opposition movement. Hopefully we’ll see Action Bronson and Meyhem Lauren in some future joints.
