Obsessing over Nike is bad enough. Obsessing over the people that work on Nike ads is pathetic. Hypebeasting to the extreme. Please don’t take that the wrong way. I understand and respect that level of dedication. Honeyee, interviewed a handful of W+K’ers. This will prove to be completely irrelevant to [...]

Look what the postman brought by the house the other day. Shoes showing up is nothing unusual, but I did not purchase these shoes! I do own this same pair of shoes - perhaps the subject of a future Road Test - but it seems adidas felt the need to send me another pair. Obviously, [...]

Let me answer your first question. Yes, these are for sale. I will give them to you for half price - say $90, shipped I have had tons of Bapes over the years, in many shapes, styles, colors, and - ahem - even sizes, since Pondon’s 10.5s are typically way cheaper than 11s. I [...]

New track… it must take a few listens, because I have not fallen in love with it just yet. Sounds like classic N.E.R.D. though, which is good and bad. Something off-the-charts different would have been nice.

Sung Choi is my new hero. He somehow resurrected Clae and in the process hit me with one of the most pleasant surprises from a sneaker company in a long time. Perhaps I set my expectations too low? Actually, I did not have much in the way of expectations, but from the second I [...]

Along the lines of the video flier from a previous post, now companies that would never typically never produce a :30 second commercial are doing so purely for online distribution. I know companies have been doing this for a while, but I would imagine we’ll see the trend explode in the coming year. I have begged clients to [...]
