SNEAKER FIENDS UNITE!

Even the awesome superhero power of my ‘Batman’ Dunks couldn’t help me copp a pair of the red ?uestlove Dunks at the release party in the Nike Sportswear store in SoHo.

Still and all I had a good time chatting up some of the folks that come out for these hyped up releases. Without hypebeasts sneaker culture wouldn’t be as fun as it is for me.

I’m not even mad I didn’t get to copp because I’m way more into the comeup anyhoo. Speaking of comeups, there’s a Sneaker Fiends Unite! tour scheduled for Saturday March 19th which will conclude at SneakerCon. If you’re interested in joining the crew just holler.

The Boot Camp Clique Chronicles…

superboots

The boots above are part of the World Hiker series. They are super boots. Meaning they are some of the most intensive shoes you can wear. They are Gore-Tex lined and capable of withstanding temperatures down to 60 degrees below zero celsius. These boots don’t bullshit. I don’t wear mine too often because I’ve grown out of them, but I have several World Hikers that I still rock and two pairs that were handmade in Italy.

The following video features one of those Italian made Timberland World Hikers. This will be the final Boot Camp Clique Chronicles video for the winter season. I’d like to pick the series up again for the spring and summer if you folks are still interested. Let me know and keep sending me pics of your favorite boots.

Miami is 1 for 9 against the elite teams in the Association.

It looks like Pat Riley should have traded up for Baron Davis when he had the chance.

rebels

The UNLV Runnin’ Rebels under coach Jerry Tarkanian were the O.G. Fab 5 before the Michigan Wolverine’s infamous starting squad.

The Rebels were hated across America as much as Mike Tyson. Can you imagine how the story was posited when the Rebels faced the Duke Blue Devils in the 1990 NCAA Championship?

The ‘bad guys’ won the title.
