The KixPo sneaker and streetwear convention was amazing. Firstly, I met some friends from the TWitterverse. Secondly, I stepped on the field that the Dallas Cowboys play football on. The stadium is an undeniable cathedral to sports and entertainment. Sure, the people of Arlington and getting shellacked with taxes to maintain the spaceship, but damn it was glorious.
I put on my 2012 Year Of The Dragon Air Jordans. I’ve loved them ever since I got my hand on them. I popped tags on a Polo RL Modern Explorer knit with a dragon screen print.
I put on a compression sleeve on my right arm with the knowledge that my arm would fatigue from holding the handycam all day filming Sean Price shenanigans. I also donned a layer of DRI-fit cotton between my fine Polo wares and my undershirt sweat collection system. Texas was hotter than Hades. I don’t know how heads keep their icy sole kicks from melting in that heat.
I used the medium elevation insoles in my Air Jordan system. I also rocked a nice little G-Shock I picked up this week.
It took me several hours to upload my video footage from the day. I’ll post that recap video along with some video treats from Sean P later this week. Stay logged on to DP.com and keep those kicks crispy.
Oh and yeah, sneaker fiends… Holler at me for your custom Sneaker Fiends Unite! buttons via the Houston homey Waio713. I call this required summer swag.
KixPo is going down tomorrow and I CAN NOT WAIT to walk on the field at Cowboys Stadium. This is prA’Li one of the top five things I’ve dreamed about in my life, including marrying Vanessa Williams, becoming an X-Man, having all my Polo pieces from 87-92 in a size 3XL and owning an Abrams tank as my personal car.
I’m already laying out the blueprint…
The New Era cap tops off this ‘fit perfectly.
If you are going to be in Dallas and you need my cell number leave a comment. Jerz, I see you.
I’ve been swagging around NYC wearing the necklace pictured above. It was a gift from the homey Straight Path Jewlz. I’m honored and blessed that he found me and chose to share these jewlz with me.
Here’s a little bio from SPJ about his mission. Listen…
My name is Nasir Nolan. I am the owner, designer, and creator of Straight Path Jewlz. I started Straight Path Jewlz a little over 4 years ago. Originally I was looking for something to wear that represented the changes that were occurring in my life and the lifestyle I was living. Through a lot of hard work, trial and error, and learning from others, I now have a line of beautifully handcrafted, one of a kind, blown glass beaded pendants. Straight Path Jewlz are unlike anything else out there – in appearance and in the positivity of the messages they carry. The “JEWLZ” not only represent my pieces, but JEWLZ of knowledge, experience, strength, and hope that we can all share with one other.
My goal is to Create Art with the purpose of making positivity fashionable. I create beautifully handcrafted, one of a kind, blown glass beaded pendants that are inspired by all mediums of creative expression, like music, poetry, art, film and fashion. I have been very fortunate to share and make custom pieces for a lot of my favorite artists who inspire me through there creative spirit
I’d like to thank all of the artists, fans, friends and family for their support and feedback. Spreading the message of “Creating Art with the Purpose of making Positivity Fashionable” has not been as hard as I thought it would be!! With so much Negativity out there, it is truly an amazing process to watch people naturally gravitate towards the Positivity reflected in Straight Path Jewlz!!
All pendants can be custom beaded in color schemes that meet your specifications. Right now all pieces are custom made-to-order. If you are interested in distinctive, custom crafted pieces, please contact me with the color scheme and image you would like in your pendant. Inshallah ﷲ(God-willing), we will make it happen!
