air max 90 360

^ flick via @Combat_Jack TWitPic

I popped a tag on a pair of Air max hybrids I had been keeping in the deadstock archive. Nothing too crazy, but oh so crispy.

The Air Max 90×360 ‘Skulls’ pack is a dope shoe. The green joints I had in effect from the gate. I copped them at CitySports on some buy one at full price and get the second half off type arrangement. They had been reduced to $120 also so I wasn’t jumping out a window either with both pairs coming to me under 2 yards.

The 3M panel is unquestionably the rub for these joints. At night it just pops off like it’s nobody’s business. During the daytime it’s the premium suede that gives these shoes their grown man swagger. Rock these joints with khakis or jeans and you are winning.

band of ballers

Converse takes over the queen city of the south when their tournament Band Of Ballers touches down in Atlanta today at the Clark University campus.

The squad Sean Price is playing on features Jay Electronica and Stadium Dan(Kidz-N-The Hall mgr).

After Ruck and Dan, nobody can hoop at all. I hope they don’t get beat too badly.

The one thing we all know for sure is that the Sean Price squad can definitely outrap everyone in the tournament.

grant hill

I was surprised that GRANT HILL was playing at such a high level for Phoenix during the 2010 NBA Playoffs when everyone from his era has already been retired from the game, but then I was reminded that HILL has been ‘red-skirted’ for 90% of his pro career.

HILL was supposed to be Michael Jordan 2.0 but instead he ended up being MJ 2.No. At least he got a few ill sneakers endorsed by Fila under his name. Sneaker endorsement money kept him married to that fine ass sister all those years he was laid up on the DL [ll].

Fila is now calling their retro’d Grant Hill II shoe the Ninety6 since HILL now runs around in NIke shoes. I always liked these shoes even tho’ I didn’t particularly fux with GRANT. Blame that on his Duke U. association and his friendship with Christian Laetttner.

Nice shoes tho’.
