KD entered the playoffs in a new ride. The KD 12 dropped as the 2019 Playoffs began. The shoe features a new flywire system as well as a first in sneakers: a strobel made from Nike Zoom Air. The shoe is made to feel broken in from the moment you slide the sneaker on your…
The BHM footwear is a solid acknowledgement of African-American history but I think the ideas should be executed better. While the shoes often look good, they don’t really tie into the heritage beyond fabrics used in the build. This version represents Sierra Leone. I’m not sure if it really reflects US Black history in some…

The Air Force 1 has been recreated in a variety of flavors. As Nike increases its output of women’s kicks, they’ve quietly rolled out several versions of the classic. The quiet roll out has been too quiet as this version, the Jester XX and its playful design has been overlooked. The misplaced Swoosh design and…

Nike does an excellent job of tying the old in with the new. Because their catalog of ‘classic’ sneakers is so extensive they can draw on the past to inform and deliver new options creating shoes both familiar and and new for the older audience and the next generation of footwear fans.

The Soundtrack colorway of the Lebron is inspired by the year LBJ was drafted into the league. The shoe feels more subtle and suited to old heads than to young hoopers and with the split color blocking of black at the front and brown suede at the heel the shoe will translate well to the…
This years Mamba Mentality pack flew under the radar. The boxes didn’t feature the MM like last year’s pack and to be honest this year was underwhelming. Actually the PG from last year was kind of wack also… The Kyrie this year features some dope comic book styled references and that’s how I would have…
