I discovered the brand Maven and their “Never Sold Dope” campaign last week. The concept is dope. As a Black man who is often looked at by kids as either an athlete or dope dealer because I buy a lot of kicks, it’s important that I can wear something that highlights that success doesn’t have to be born from selling dope.

I will be in Los Angeles next week as a speaker on the panel at the Footwear Innovation Summit. If you are really interested in where the sneaker industry is headed the event is on the 25th at Hotel Indigo in Downtown LA.
