The Shadow 1 has always been a highly coveted colorway of the retro 1. The last time the shoe released it skyrocketed in resell making it hard for people to grab a pair. This weekend’s release was more widespread and there are pairs still sitting on the shelves two days after the drop and that’s…
If you own a car painted with the Rosso Corsa color, you’re rich. The Air Jordan line has long been inspired by Italian speed design specifically the Air Jordan 14 Retro. The Bulls colors match perfectly with the color scheme of Rosso Corsa and the Jordan Brand line up always features some variation of the…
The Retro 12 got a 10 dollar bump up in price to 200.00 because Jordan Brand added a fleece/wool upper to the classic retro. This video is quick and straight to the point with a 360 look at this release.

This shoe was designed to celebrate the retirement of the Captain. Derek Jeter was the first Jordan Brand baseball player and has had several PEs over the course of his career. When he retired Nike made sure to honor the legend with a RE2PECT commercial that discussed the things that made him great. The shoe…
While I am not the biggest fan of MJ’s final post retirement shoe, I did discover something interesting while editing this video. This is the first technical design where Nike places the emphasis on the Carbon midsole design. The tech is given a label on the insole and featured prominently throughout the every design element…
The Retro 9 Playoffs aka Space Jam OG was released in 2016. The shoe features a nubuck with 3M accents, and the OG Bulls colorway. A classic sneaker that featured an homage to international basketball. The outsole has words in 6 different languages. French – Dede – Dedicated Spanish – Fuerza – Force Italian –…
The PG2 Mamba Day features a lot of references to previous Kobe shoes. The Pacific Ocean theme from the Kobe 6 Prelude. Elements of the Predator Pack with the Cheetah, championship trophies and a shout out to PG2’s home of Palmdale. It’s a visually dope shoe. Read the video for more details of what is…
With so many videos to do, I spent a little extra time deciphering the Kyrie 4 Logo that has the all seeing eye, 3, 6, 9 inside of the pyramid. You have to read, since I did the research after I did the video. The Kyrie 4 celebrates Mamba Day. Mamba Day began on April…
This is a bolder colorway of the Air Max 270.The new lifestyle model from Nike has been released in a ton of colorways yet the shoe feels fresh every time it drops. The giant Max Air unit creates a different look and at a time when every silhouette looks like a knit runner it’s 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…
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…
