RLXercise Lifestyle…

Saturday, July 28th, 2012

I’ve officially overdosed on RLX gear from the Spring 2012 programme. It didn’t help me either that Bloomingdale’s has been offering the ridiculous pricepoints on these items. The hoodie pictured above is now $25 (from $168). Heads have been sleeping on the RLX brand.

True, the RLX sports I.T.’s with more athletic cuts and shapes, but true to my aspirations I find the shit that fits, or I MAKE it fit. It’s BEEN past time for me to take the Cannondale off the wall and put it back on the streets. I finally got the money to make it right.

By the end of the year I should be rocking these RLX I.T.’s on the regulack.

My new nickname is gonna be ‘Sprockets’.

SNEAKER FIENDS UNITE!

Wednesday, July 25th, 2012

I kept my shit eye level for this latest Air Jordan retro release. I like the 7s, but not more than the 6s and if I had my choice I would score another pair of the Olympic 6s before I shell out for the Barcelona 7s. Yeah, yeah I know, “Jordan WORE the Barcelona 7s!”. Shut the fux up already!

I’m promising myself that I won’t do anymore lineup release videos because I feel like I might be a part of the problem why people are hyping over sub-par shoes. Maybe if I stopped caring then so would the kids? Ha! That will never happen since the machine put in place to make these kids nutts isn’t gonna stop hyping this shit up.

Sneakers might be the perfect storm of Madison Avenue marketing meets nostalgia. I catch the fever just like every other American. Now please watch my version of anti-hype HYPE.

The Boot Camp Clique Chronicles…

Wednesday, July 25th, 2012

I caught the tail end of the Capsule menswear trade show here in NYC and learned a few awesome developments from the Timberland camp.

1) 40 Belows (Iditarod Super Boots) will be making a return to retail to commemorate Timberland’s 40th anniversary

2) Timberland is re-issuing the World Hikers. Yeah, the World Hikers.

3) Abington boots from The Timberland Company are still the SHIT!

Water Gap Lifestyle…

Tuesday, July 24th, 2012

I searched near and far for a pair of New Balance that would complement the Whitewater/Yosemite series of RLX gear I have been acquiring for my Delaware Water Gap trip Chocolate Snowflake and I are going on this fall.

Century21 came thru again with another pair of 581s.
