This Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG wasn’t made in the 80s, but it can definitely pass for a pair MJ would have worn during his early years with the Bulls. The shoe features a cracked leather toebox and collar and has a rough suede heel to create a look similar to the “Best Hand…
I did an article on Zion’s new shoe and his landing mechanics before I got a pair of the kicks. This is a video on the details of what I think is Jordan Brand’s best signature sneaker release. The drop rivals releases from the 90s and feels like a throwback. If you’d like to see…

The Superrep 2 is Nike’s answer to HIIT workouts, but the shoe is a bulky, squishy monster that moves the foot too far away from the ground in my opinion. The Metcon is a far more superior option that is both stable and it performs in a more efficient manner. You can pick up the…
