Get Ready For Combat…

Friday, December 7th, 2012

When I tell y’all that the Combat Jack Show is the BEST podcast/radio talk show on these internets…

You already.

Bomani Jones and I have had a semi-contentious relationship on the internets since we both started weblogging in 2005. I’m glad we got to meet in person and bury the virtual digital axe. This show is DOPE!

Dare Too Fly…

Wednesday, December 5th, 2012

The TWiterverse and Instagramland have erupted with h8 over the latest iteration of the Air Jordan flagship sneaker.

If Michael were still playing would there be this much venom spewed over the shoes? PrA’Li, because its the internets that fuels this madness. Also with this model Jordan Brand has returned to giving the shoes a sequentially numbered designation. This model is the ’28’

My only advice is for people to wait until they see the shoes in person before taking a shit on them.

I’m still sweating the Air Jordan 2012s for my personal collection. I will call these joints my ‘2012 Altitudes’. Nubuck on the upper and a translucent outsole. Call me a hypebeast if you want, because these shoes are HYPE!

Premium Pete holds me down while I take a week off to run the streets and Thomas Decoud from the Atlanta Falcons is on the check-in.

The Sneaker Fiends Unite! podcasts can be streamed on iTunes now.

Yeah, I know, big deal.

You can still stream and download all the SFU podcasts as well as the Combat Jack Show and Reality Check Radio from the Combat Jack Show and Friends Soundcloud page.

Outfit Architecture…

Friday, November 30th, 2012

Levels of layering is how you move in the northeast during the winter.

I’m all about this classic Gore-Tex NorthFace Mountain jacket with a Nike AW77 hoody as my median layer.

Under the Polo anniversary knit is a Nike DRI-Fit longsleeve and still a cotton t-shirt baselayer under that.

I gotta give you the whole structure which has the Air Jordan 2012 Year Of The Dragon on my feet once again. I am O.D. for these Jordan 2012s.

The NorthFace Mountain jacket and this Nike hoody complement each other so perfectly that I actually store them together. I won’t wear one without the other.

I’ll be putting outfits together like this one all winter long. Layering wools and cottons and high-tech fabrics to insure I retain my body heat. AND my style heat.
