SNEAKER FIENDS UNITE!

Finish Line has your boy str8 flourishing!

My mans-n-them Loso del Fresco came up top to NYC from the District and we hung out hardbody this weekend. Fried chicken and red velvet waffles from SoCo in Fort Greene, dipped over to Kings Plaza to get some Brooklyn swag shopping on and then went to see the Nets play the Cavs at the Barclays.

After the game I was in hypebeast mode and I copped my first pair of Kd VIs. The NRGs aka the un-N3RFs.

Shouts to ALL the Sneaker Fiends Unite! supporters.

Today I went to the brick and mortar Finish Line store (in Newport Centre Mall.NJ) to swap my Air Max Flyknits for a sz 12. I fux with Finish Line because they are one of the last sneaker stores in the game to have a clearance rack.

Outfit Architecture…

Outfit Architecture is more than simply styling yourself for oohs and aahs. You have to create a ‘Fit that functions for the moves you are making.

The fair isle knit sweater and pinpoint button down oxford are dayjob staples. I usually put a tie on even when I don’t tuck in the shirttails. Ties give you a certain gravitas.

I popped tags on some crispy 501s and even put on some new ‘LO socks (made in Japan). This ‘Fit was all about comfort and flexibility. Something to go from working during the day to playing the city at night.

The final question was which Timb boot would hold down this conservative ‘Fit. I choose the Intervale Mids because I wanted to be quick moving ahead of this oncoming snowstorm. I made it back home just in time.

I went on a lifestyle spree to close out the year and picked up some classic timeless pieces. Some of the joints were actually replacements like the two knits pictured above
