Length: about 8 minutes Two pair shown Converse delivered several models for Black History Month. The Chuck 70’s Hi appeared with of course the traditional Kente cloth look that Nike utilizes on most of its BHM models. While the trend is a bit tired these two pair in the pack look great and the use…
The second model in the recreation of the original Jordan Brand releases is the Jordan 32. The shoe is clearly a modern take on the Luxury Jordan 2 and many colors showed how Jordan Brand tried to make sure they caught the original Italian luxe elements of the shoe. This version is eye catching and…
Jordan Brand’s flagship model is often met with lukewarm interest. When the brand decided with the 31 to begin combining elements of the OG lines with tech updates the first model was this Banned version. It features elements of the original BRED colorway with nods to the shoe being banned by the NBA. There are…
I’ve had a lot to say about the mash up of classic kicks by Jordan Brand. I’ve even made it clear that the Don C designed 312 shouldn’t have been made… until I saw this version in the Olympic colorway. Often it takes a colorway to turn an opinion about a shoe and the Olympic…
The San Diego emcee who once dominated Snoop Dogg’s Underground YouTube top spot for months has discovered his voice again and while Tobe Nwigwe is currently dominating the viral Hip-Hop scene with his conscious, gospel inspired rap, Judah is a better emcee because he actually understands hooks (and this is coming from a guy who…
A lot of people took Ls on this shoe when it dropped. It’s the first Yeezy in a while to hit resale, but in my opinion, it is simply because it reminds people of the Pirate Black. This is a long video because I was going to start looking at the different cues, but as…
In this episode I share a part of our summer routine. Every year my daughter and I set up a week long art camp. When I was young, my mom didn’t have time to nurture my artistic skills. She was working too hard and my father wasn’t in the picture. My wife noticed my daughter’s…

To jumpstart the celebration of the NBA’s All Star Weekend being hosted in North Carolina Jordan Brand launched a series of classic models paying homage to MJ. The brand began with a new iteration of the classic Laney H.S. colorway in premium suede. The price was bumped up to 200 as well. The shoe was…
This Air Jordan 1 Retro High is not an OG but a premium version of the classic. It features an unfinished upper with a matte black color and the raw edges of the leather exposed with a sand outsole to match the textured look of the shoe.
The Air Jordan 1 Retro High is now Nike’s go to for dropping multiple colors and styles consistently. This version in my opinion was the start of Virgil Abloh’s influence on Jordan Brand with text being added to side panels. This shoe has an interesting look, but it’s unclear of why the shoe was designed….
I’m not quite certain why this model is considered Winterized. The shoe does have a sticky gum outsole and reflective hits throughout the upper, but I’m not sure if the upper is a waterproof PU. The shoe does feel almost rubbery in the upper, but with a lacing system that leaves slots into the shoe,…
This version of the Air Jordan 1 Mid dropped in 2017 and has found a new audience. The shoe features a tumbled leather on the black portions of the shoe and a wine red in this remake of the classic retro 1.
This is one of those times I wish I could take a quick flight up to NYC and then fly back to edit the video from an art exhibit that details the rich history of kicks in THE city. Words from Sean Williams: Greetings Everyone! If you’re receiving this email it is because you’re…
This Air Jordan 1 Mid SE is clearly influenced by the NRG High OG release. While the colors are slightly reversed at first glance they appear to be the same shoes and the community is responding like they are the same with resale prices climbing on this non-OG High product it seems Nike has captured…
A new multicolor version of the Jordan 1 Mid arrives in a variety of colors and materials. The suede, nubuck and leather upper has elements of the classic Bred colorway with pops of additional color.
This years release from Jordan Brand was a mid instead of a high. The mid has become a go to model in the past year racking up values way above retail and turning heads in a vast array of colors. This version features the new love basketball heart at the heel and similar to the…
This women’s Air Jordan originally sat on shelves and was reduced in price. Now that it can’t be found anywhere in stores the price is rising in the after market. The shoe isn’t bad and the colorway is a bit deceptive. It looks grey in some light, tan and white in others. The faux reptile…
The Nike Zoom Rookie was a creation by Nike for Penny Hardaway. At one point Nike introduced several post career sneakers for Hardaway, the 1/2 Cent, Rookie and later the Penny 5. Penny is now the coach of the University of Memphis his alma mater and has helped turn around the program and give it…
The KD10 was an upgrade from the 9 and there were a number of exciting colorways. The shoe features Zoom Air and a more structured Flyknit upper with a socklike fit. This color way arrived in the classic black and white “oreo” style with a white outsole and sections of suede on the tongue and…
In 84 a movie released and kids went crazy. It’s been over 30 years since the Terminator hit the big screen and a programmed, human like android stalked the mother of a future revolution who was protected by a man sent back by his son. That man was Kyle Reese who arrived in the past…
adidas is number two. How does number two capture number one when number one controls the major sports in the largest market? They place an emphasis on endorsers in the major sports, but they move quickly into capturing the niche markets where the collective of fans of various brands can amount to a more loyal…
