What does the word ‘grail’ mean to you? I know it means different things to different people…but this one right here is probably my last real ‘grail’. And it ain’t even worth it at this point, right?

A lot of people weighing on the ‘pre-muddied’ post with a bunch of dumb@ss comments about ‘respect’ and ‘yellowing’ and ‘pre-aging’ and - other than the fact that it’s just in bad taste to sh*t on kid

I’m always kinda fascinated with how much a slight change in branding makes…and here we have another from Merrell and Anta on over the Nike.
I think I bought one pair of *minimalist* @merrell (zero d

Branding aside, would you?
I think I bought one pair of *minimalist* @merrell (zero drop) back in 2011 or so for some trail running and I bought only one pair of @antasportsofficial about a year ago

Before shoes, I used to pine for early leaks of

Shall we give it a shot? Will I be able to post 366 *different pairs of shoes (1 per day) in the good year of our lord in 2024?
Should I even try? Or should I just chalk it up to another fun idea I w

In no way is this post meant to be disrespectful towards anyone… @bigboi is in my top 5 all time and I know what @staley05 means to the basketball world, but I do think this topic merits discussion.

With all of the talk about about those Flea 2’s last month, kinda shocked I haven’t seen one pass my timeline in basically a whole month…makes me wonder…how long is our collective attention span for s

Had a though that @sonsofblackmaria helped me pull together…

Personally I love these Terrascape tings.
Got both the 97’s and the Plus’ on steep steep discount and am still on the lookout for some 90’s at a similar price point but ain’t holdin’ my breath.

Just saw this @bodega ad come across my feed and was kinda shocked - shoe is a solid ‘meh’ (might be better in different colors), but I was interested to see that IG now allows 20 pics in ad slideshow

A lot of talk (or posts) lately about shops ‘forcing’ buyers to smash their boxes…a few thoughts:
