ALL DAY I DREAM ABOUT SNEAKERS…

I had a 20% off coupon to Burlington Coat Factory burning a hole in my hand. BCF sells Timberlands at prices already cheaper than factory outlet stores. The coupon made these futuristic field boots forty bucks even.
Burlington is trying to get me to include them in my shopping rotation by offering coupons and gift cards from their website. I’m posting this pic of the field boots on their ‘Brag About It‘ webpage and I need for y’all to vote for me.
Burlington used to have a store on Park Place near the World Trade Center site where I would cop tons of Polo Ralph Lauren pieces. If I can keep getting Tims at this price I’ll become a customer all over again.

The Boot Camp Clique Chronicles…
Monday, August 15th, 2011
Thanks to you interconnected networks aka the internets for helping me grab the ear of the folks at Timberland. The Boot Camp Clique videos have been seen by some of the higher ups at the brand and my fanboy love is getting its overdue respect.
I was pleasantly surprised to come home one night and see a massive box from the Timberland Company (via Epiphany Marketing) on my doorstep. Even if my box didn’t have my name on it I was still geeked the fux out of my mind to feel like I had been chosen.
The boots are the classic 10061 style. Some folks call these the ‘cheese’ boots. I put these shoes in my top 5 Hip-Hop sneakers of all-time. The boots are built for four(4) season wearability. I’ve seen kids playing basketball and handball in these shoes as well as their ubiquitous presence on countless construction sites.
The 10061s are one of the most enduring, iconic descriptions of the American work ethic next to Levis and a New York Yankees baseball cap. The smell of the nubuck suede is undeniable. The last of the stitches is unbreakable. The silicon rubber lug sole is unstoppable. The 10061 on your feet make you invincible.
The Timberland socks sent with the boots were a supreme touch from the Team Epiphany crew. The socks complete my Timberland 10061 footwear system.
The packaging and the boots were a dope surprise, especially to see that I’m on Timberland’s radar, but the real win was on the inside of these boots. Timberland’s patented Anti-Fatigue insoles are the best detail added to the new 10061. I can wear these boots now like I rock a pair of SB Dunks. All day long.
SNEAKER FIENDS UNITE!
Thursday, August 11th, 2011
SneakerCON in Washington D.C. was a popoff. We held a warm up at MajorDC in Goergetown and then we enjoyed two (2) days of convening with some of the district’s best collectors and connoisseurs of sneaker culture.
As you might prA’li imagine, I copped a few pairs. For those of you who bristle at my cavalier fiscal attitude keep this truth in mind… If this economy ever goes completely into the shitter having money in a bank will be worth even less than my shoe collection.
While I tumble towards hell in a handbasket with the rest of America I decided to make a little video of my D.C. pickups and recaps from Saturday and Sunday SneakerCONs. You only live once Internets, and some of us don’t even live at all. Enjoy…
