Air Jordan 1 Mid "Royal Splatter" I've had these Jordan Mids for a couple years. I've skated in them, gone on road trips with them, even walked in public bathrooms with them for Christ's sake! They done me good the last couple of years. So why (you may ask) would I do this to them?... … Continue reading Sneaker Sunday: Aj1 “DropTop”
Alright so for this "Sneaker Sunday" I've decided to switch it up a bit. Below you'll find a video of my thoughts on the sneaker and a few clips of it "on foot." Check it out and let me know if you'd like to see more videos of its ilk. Below the video you'll also … Continue reading Sneaker Sunday: Air Jordan IV Retro “What The”
When I saw leaked images of these, I knew I had to have them. 1/3 Carolina blue, 1/3 Obsidian blue and 1/3 Sail; it's like these kicks were made specifically for my preferred color pallette. Sure, I might bleed green but I look best in blue. The oversaturation of Jordan 1 releases the past few … Continue reading Sneaker Sunday: Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Obsidian”
Most of you who follow my sneakergram (pplookingatsnkrs) or follow my Sneaker Sunday blog posts have probably noticed my affinity, love and obsession for the Nike brand. So this post may come as a surprise... I gotta give some credit to Kawhi Leonard. I think he's changed the way we (as consumers) see the brand. … Continue reading Sneaker Sunday: New Balance 998
The sneaker that started it all... I still remember the first time I saw this it. I was a wide eyed freshman playing on my high school's basketball team. We were playing a tournament in Las Vegas and I somehow found myself rooming with kids a bit older than me. One of my roommates had … Continue reading Sneaker Sunday: Air Jordan “Aqua” VIII
author's note: This post should be read in a J. Peterman voice... I scampered down the rope like a squirrel barreling towards my destination. Below me, I could feel the rocks scraping the underside of my foot as it dug into the cliffside seeking a foothold. Fortunately, I was wearing my Nike hiking shoes. Burnt … Continue reading Sneaker Sunday: Air Revaderchi
When I lived in San Francisco, I walked everywhere. It was about a 2 mile walk from my house in the Inner Richmond to my school up the hill at USF. Each morning I would throw my headphones on, grab my skateboard and make the trek up to school. After about 3 months … Continue reading Sneaker Sunday: Vans Authentic Pro ‘Desert Camo’
"White/Game Royal Black-Dynamic Pink." If those colors don't jump out at you, I don't know what to do for you. The Nike Air Huarache is a staple in sneaker culture that you're likely to find in any respectable sneakerhead closet. It's unique enough to catch eyeballs, comfortable enough to rock anytime and different enough … Continue reading Sneaker Sunday: Air Huarache ’91
This is my second consecutive "Sneaker Sunday" focusing on a performance basketball sneaker; but I think it's worth it. As I've stated before, my feet take the most abuse and having good, supportive footwear is critical to my on-court safety and success. My last post focused on a basketball shoe that I immediately … Continue reading Sneaker Sunday: Nike pg3
Ball is life. I play four times a week and sometimes I wish it was more. The frequency with which I play is so high, that the gear I wear on court is of the utmost importance. I did a post last year on my favorite hooping shoes of the summer and it … Continue reading Sneaker Sunday: Kobe AD NXT 360
