SNEAKER FIENDS UNITE!

Wednesday, May 18th, 2011

Our favorite rapper is also our favorite sneaker fiend. Sean Price has created a series of kicks honoring Black cinematic heroes. The ‘LeVar Burton’ pack was official. Now he gives us the ‘Billy Dee Williams’ pack minus the Colt45.

Ruck keeps it classy for the internets.

Got Sneakerpedia?

Wednesday, May 18th, 2011

Sneaker culture always seems like its too personal to find a connect to the masses. No one understand why people line up outside of FootLocker for shoes that aren’t being sold for several days. Hypebeasts that do stunts like camp out in front of stores are a small percentage of the heads who wear kicks, but that behavior certainly got the notice of corporate America.

How can these uber-collectors be cloned, or better still infect the rest of the population into becoming hypebeasts? FootLocker took a step in that direction with the new website Sneakerpedia. Think of this site as the Wikipedia for sneakers. I fuxed with the page one afternoon and lost four hours in the nostalgia of all the sneakers I’ve owned. If you consider yourself a sneaker head you will fux with this site.

7-11 Are The Bloodsuckers Of The Poor…

Wednesday, May 18th, 2011

The 7-11 convenience store in my neighborhood is operated by a cabal of pirates. These people frequently change prices to items within the store even if that item has a price tag or a posted price. I can realize that I’m not the only person they do this to, but I’m the only person who demands my rights as a customer.

I’m about to take this battle to the top of the veritable food chain at the corporation. Walk with me as I attempt to restore some equity to the American working poor.
