Shouts to my peoples Rios and Air Maxwell from the Dr.Jays on Fordham Road. I made a quick stop through there a few weeks ago to copp those Air Max 90 360 hybrids with the flash pink laces and these folks showed me some love on a few other I.T.’s, just on the strength that they read this blog. Being an iNternets Celebrity in the streets has its privileges.

Dr.Jays is one of NYC’s classic sneaker ansd streetwear spots. They don’t carry the ultra-trendy streetwear labels (read: ghey), but they do sell some of that ghetto shit that no self-respecting Black dude would ever wear. You know that shit that is only popular within the New York City housing projects. I don’t care where you reside though. You just need to have a new pair of kicks on your feet if you want to get my respect.

Dr.Jays is where you can copp that crisp new flavor.

I fucks with this spot for a bunch of reasons…

1) Several locations all around NYC – Fulton Street, Fordham Road, Jamaica Avenue AND 34th Street

2) These dudes sell shit below MSRP – Nike ‘3M Croc’ print Dunks = $70

3) Dr.Jays has a Nike Urban account and this means exclusive shit.

4) These niggas got every possible color of Yankees fitted.

I copped the 3M Dunks because they are fireworks, and way cheaper than anywhere else I have seen them.

Dr.Jays carries a brand called Lot29 ansd they are doing some ridiculous shit right now with DC Comics heroes and villains. I am not fucking with any of this Lot29 shoit because they are bastardizing the DC Comics brand. This is the type of campy, cartoonish n onsense that you might be able to get away with when you use Bugs Bunny, but even still it’s obvious to me that whoever was contracted to design this line had no feel for comics or how to represent them. The line totally looks and feels like clownshoes.

Memo to DC Comics… Make it stop!

Now here is how it should be done. Marvel Comics has the best designers working on their branded apparel. Their shit is just tougher than leather. I copped two(2) of these Spider-Man tees so I could keep one on ice. They had a Punisher joint and a Venom tee, but Spider-Man is the GOAT of the Marvel franchise and I can’t wait to sport my tee for the premiere of SM 4.

Good looking out Dr.Jays!
