LeBron, Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, Giannis, Zion and Westbrook, what do these names have in common? They make up the entire roster of Nike and Jordan Brand’s signature sneaker NBA stars (Melo and Chris Paul are on that list also, but nope). These stars have always played some part in the elevation of their brands…
There are moments in sneaker culture that rock the foundation of how the entire industry is perceived. Typically, these moments happen when big names leave brands; like Kobe leaving adidas for Nike, or like Kanye leaving Nike for adidas. In most instances game changing moments in kicks aren’t really game changing. When the SNKRS app…

The video FX appear to be claymation, but the detail is so incredible it’s hard to think that the…
Buy these with the links below the video. The Olympic inspired Air Jordan 36 gets the low-cut treatment and is repped by Celtics star Jayson Tatum.

Check out https://ollopk.com/ OLLO sneakers are built for Freerunning and Parkour. I picked them up as an additional training shoe for jump rope.

This is the first sneaker from NOBULL built for tennis and other court activities. I initially tried on a size 13, but it felt too roomy, so I went down to a 12.5. Once I was able to really test the sneaker, I realized that the roominess of the sneaker is to offset the rigidity…

Novice runners to long time athletes are all discussing whether the benefits of Nike’s ZoomX cushioning is really leading to faster times. One thing that can be questioned are the…
One of the most difficult aspects of writing about an unfinished work of art is the inability to discuss the whole.
