One of my problems with he sneaker game is the general lack of imagination that some sneaker companies have.
i was having an argument with my homey from Flawless Hustle – GABEROCKKA. He was discussing one of his recent acquisitiions that he called the ‘Batman’ SB’s. I saw that same pair and I called them the ‘Iron Giant’ SB’s
I thought that the name ‘Iron Giant’ was way more appropriate because the shoes are a gun-metal grey. Batman’s strongest colorway isn’t his grey bodysuit but the indigo of his cowl and cape.
Plus I liked the movie ‘Iron Giant’. This is a DVD you need to copp for Hanukwanzamas if you don’t have it already.
The Iron Giant is a robot from outerspace who crash lands on Earth and befriends a boy who teaches him all about humanity. The movie is a cartoon that can get graphic at moments unlike anything that Disney has put out. The film examines how people treat one another as the Iron Giant tries to figure out what is the driving force for humankind.
At the end of the day the ‘Iron Giant’ is simply the story of a boy who loved a robot, and the robot who loved the boy enough to risk it all to protect him.
