UNDER ARMOUR ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2018 EARNINGS AND CONFERENCE CALL DATE BALTIMORE, MD., April 12, 2018 – Under Armour, Inc. (NYSE: UA, UAA) plans to release the results of its first quarter (ended March 31, 2018) on Tuesday, May 1, 2018 at 6:55 a.m. ET. Following the news release, Under Armour management will host a…
The Air Jordan 16 arrived at the end of MJ’s second retirement. Like the Air Jordan 11 the shoe was meant to transition from the court to a formal setting. Hence the tuxedo styled shroud over the midfoot. The shroud also gave the shoe an appearance of being two different models. This video has details…
By the time I finished the video I realized what the logos on the shoe meant. While everyone else is calling these the Multi-color (which they are) or the reverse Fruity Pebbles, this version should be called the 4 Horsemen of Akron, Ohio. LeBron’s crew, the guys he played with at SVSM have all taken…
Jordan Brand has been getting away with some really suspect quality. I got these Hyper Royal 13s in today and in the process of doing the verification I found several problems with the shoes that would have made me question authenticity had I not gotten them directly from Nike. This shoe could have been a…
This pair of Nike LeBron XV Ashes was a return. The customer didn’t put the brown LeBron logo inserts back into the shoes and he clearly wore them on a dirty surface. I used Foot Locker Mint Instant Sneaker Cleaner and a wet rag to clean the outsole. The shoes could be sold as new,…
There isn’t a better feeling than to honor a friend on a public stage. I know it’s great to celebrate people in private and sometimes you don’t need others to know about how great someone was, but when you get to the level that Russell Westbrook is, the ability to create something you know your…
This is a long video, but it gives you a good look at last year’s Reebok Classics release of the Killa Cam DMX Run. The shoe is loaded with small details and comes in a Harlem World/Dipset pink, white and gold box. The shoes ship with an extra set of rope laces with heavy aglet…
Nike annually celebrates Chinese New Year and it makes sense. The country wouldn’t exist without the production efforts of China and without the massive growth opportunity based on the number of citizens living in China as well as the passion and love of sport. This shoe features fireworks and flowers embroidered into the upper, a…
About 4 years ago I wrote an article about adidas and Nike in regard to the NMD’s rapid growth both at retail and in resale. In it I used a micro to macro comparison utilizing the research available to me within my Amazon.com account. Amazon supplied a detailed backend system with items like: reach, average…
Another combination of a classic with new technology. VaporMax is the first full length Max Air cushion that is directly attached to the upper. This version features a classic Air Max 97 colorway with the new tech creating a modern update.
Nike has been mashing up its classic runners and unlike the monstrosities that are Jordan Brand fusions, the runners actually look dope. This is a mash up of the Plus and 97 and dropped in the “Layer Cake” pack. The Mica Green and Barely Rose colorway is a perfect name because the outsole looks white…
The Foamposite Air Force 1 is one of those shoes that makes me question Nike’s Edit to Amplify. The Foamposite no longer sells out quickly and the Air Force 1 was supposed to be limited in colors this year. In other words two shoes that aren’t the same level of desire for the culture as…
This video is a little longer than the standard authentic verification video. When the 2002 Jordan 17 dropped I was a young head coach and my team was wearing adidas. I didn’t pick up the 17s because they cost 200. They were crazy though. The shoes came in a suitcase like an instrument for a…
The Trophy Room is the sneaker shop operated by Michael Jordan’s son so you know that the shop gets exclusive kicks. This pair of the XX3’s features the tag Heir Jordan on the inside of the tongues and the Trophy Room logos visible through a translucent outsole. The suede is premium and the embroidery and…
There isn’t anything fancy about this Jordan 1 Mid. It is similar in color to the Yin Yang Pack, but as a Mid it has the Jumpman logo on the tongue and isn’t quite as high. The shoe reminds me of something the 80s Celtics would rock. All black with a white swoosh. It’s a…
A lot of people don’t feel the same about the AJ1 Mid as they do about the High OG. It’s understandable. The Mid has the Jumpman branding and often the leather isn’t as soft and premium. The price however is great at 110 and when the color is close to an OG colorway that’s a…
The first sample came back for the next ARCH shoe. After my daughter and I came up with what we thought was the perfect blend of athletic and casual I knew I had to cross my fingers and hope for the best since paying for the sample meant I was at the mercy of the…
Source: ADIDAS & DAMIAN LILLARD TURN UP THE HEAT WITH 400 DEGREEZ I know some people won’t label Juvi’s first album as a classic, but put “Back That Thang Up” on at a party and maaaaaaaaaannnnnnn… I don’t care who is there, white, black, brown, everybody, and I mean everybody is going to get on…
Source: The Sandlot Collection I have to admit that I was at sea when the film The Sandlot released. We were deep into a WestPac headed to the Gulf so 25 years ago I didn’t get to experience the phenomenon of the film The Sandlot. Honestly, I’ve never seen the film from beginning to end….
Nike Basketball bounces back right before the start of the Playoffs with another City Edition of the KD 10. The shoe features a bright, spring ready Hyper Turquoise and Racer Blue colorway. The “Warrior” Chinese Character is featured on the right shoe and visible Air cushioning is underfoot. Another striking colorway of the KD 10….
The original LeBron came back for LeBron’s 15th season during All Star Weekend. The Quickstrike release was limited and hard to find. The shoe features a wheat and gold upper with a sticky gum outsole. Basically you can put your Timbs away and rock these this summer.
