Originally posted on Housakicks My good friend Chris from ARCH has been flaming Under Armour for their poor marketing strategies; the Curry 3 marketing has been almost non existent. I have come across two colorways of the Curry 3 and didn’t even know when they released. The brand needs to borrow a thing or two from…

The Spirit of Phife envelops what appears to be the final release from one of the greatest groups in music history. When I got this album a month ago, I hadn’t listened to it and then the Dave Chappelle episode on SNL happened and I heard We The People. When Tip, Robi and Ali stopped…

Originally posted on Housakicks New Balance has taken a lot of punches over their supposedly pro Trump’s comments; I don’t want to add to the confusion so i’m solely talking sneakers on the site.

I’m waiting on my co-owner at Housakicks to complete the charts for an analysis of the latest release from Under Armour for Steph Curry.
