Nike Air Max 97 QS White/Varsity Red AT5458-100 Platinum | Authentic Verification

Chris Burns6 years ago6 years ago01 mins

The final video in the Air Max 97 Metals Pack (I gave it that name because of the style code and colors), this is the platinum version. The shoe retains all of the classic elements and captures the silver bullet aesthetic with the addition of a white mesh upper.

Nike Air Max 97 QS Black/Varsity Red AT5458-002 Gold | Authentic Verification

Chris Burns6 years ago6 years ago01 mins

I think the collection of Nike Air Max 97s is called the metals pack: silver, platinum and gold. The classic is updated with a medial and lateral addiitonal leather overlay with a jeweled Swoosh.

Chris Burns6 years ago6 years ago01 mins

This QS version arrived in a metallic pack similar to the OG versions of the 97. The pack includes a silver and black, gold and black, and white and silver version. The 10.00 dollar bump to 180 was for the additional leather on the medial with a jeweled Swoosh vs the traditional mesh and embroidered…

Nike Air Max 1 Anniversary White/Aqau-Neutral Grey-Black 908375-105

Chris Burns6 years ago6 years ago01 mins

The 2017 Air Max 1 Anniversary Pack brought back classic Nike running and this version of what can be considered the Grape colorway because of the hits of purple, is one of the nicest drops from the Swoosh commemorating the annual Air Max Day.

Nike Air Force 1 Utility QS OBJ AV2040-001 Cool Grey/White-Black | Authentic Verification

Chris Burns6 years ago6 years ago01 mins

The Odell Beckham Jr. Air Force 1 Utility is a shimmering, glow in the dark (I think) masterpiece. I don’t typically gloat over an Air Force 1, but the fishscale upper on top of a vivid neon green translucent outsole looks incredible.

Nike Air Force 1 Utility AO1531-300 Sequoia/Black-Gum-Med Brown | Authentic Verification

Chris Burns6 years ago6 years ago01 mins

This Utlility actually feels like it was created to serve a purpose. The heavily padded tongue and the laceless magnetic strap lockdown with scuff tech seems to be made more for warehouse workers than for the street. This is definitely one of the more unique drops in the revitalized Air Force 1 line and could…

Nike Air Force 1 Mid ’07 LV8 University Red/White-Black | Authentic Verification

Chris Burns6 years ago6 years ago01 mins

The Virgil Abloh inspired design from Nike continues with this GR release of the Mid featuring multiple Swoosh and TM elements placed throughout the upper. The all red color stands out, but the subtle pops of white with the double Swoosh on the strap and upper gives an immediate comparison to The Ten. [ebayfeedsforwordpress…

The fusion era of Jordan Brand ididn’t create a connection like the numbered series, but that hasn’t stopped JB from introducing the Dub Zero or Son Of kicks to a new generation. The response has been consistent. Not even the Spizike can make the fusion era hot again. These 175 dollar Spizikes were found at…

Air Jordan 1 Retro High GG 332148-019 Black/Black-HyperPink-White | Authentic Verification

This version of the Retro 1 doesn’t feature Nike Air branding and arrived a couple of years ago, but if you hit the local Nike Clearance, you can find it for 39 bucks. The best feature is the two color gradient shift on the Swoosh and I think it has a 3M pink toebox. I…

Chris Burns6 years ago6 years ago01 mins

After two years this version of the Retro 5 has popped in resale and is now fetching 175 to 220 dollars a pair. The shoe features a pop of sunblush pink and black netting on the medial and lateral sides of the shoes. The icy translucent outsole makes this pop.

The Winterized Wheat Air Jordan 13 features a premium suede and scuff tech mudguard with a sticky gum outsole. The shoe is an extremely stylish version of the classic although it isn’t highly regarded.

A very overlooked model, the Air Jordan 32 like the Air Jordan 2 is a well crafted basketball shoe. The 2 was made in Italy and featured a more premium leather. It was also the first Jordan to remove the Swoosh in lieu of the Jordan Wings logo. This version was a complimentary pair to…

The Retro 11 dropped again this year, but with a subtle difference the 45 was at the heel. The irony is Jordan lost to the Orlando Magic in the Jordan with the 45 on the heel. He would return in his 23 to capture another three-peat with the Bulls. This shoe however remains the grail….
