9/10 to you, 8.5/10 to me. Why? Glue stains, sole compression and minor sole soiling. @newbalance x @westnyc “Alpine”. Quite possibly my favorite colorway of the New Balance 580. . . . . . . . #thesne

I wasn’t much a fan of this design, but it’s growing on me. And this is one of the first completely original collaboration designs I’ve seen from a Nike shoe in quite a while. No reused Nike parts. No

IMO Nike wins style, Adidas wins creativity. (I had this crazy dope caption that took me like 20 minutes to write and then I realized, after it posted, the caption didn’t post...ughhh)

Back in 2013 or 2014 or so, most of us #sneakerheads were pretty excited about Kanye West joining @adidas. We were all highly anticipating his first offering to the sneaker gods. And then the first g

New @Nike #airmax95 x @carharttwip pics sent to me by another collector @joerdan23tn_kooth . The shoe looks awesome but once again, the glue stains are pretty apparent. Once again, not the end of the

What do you think when you see something like this? Nike Air Max Plus 'Tiger' retros coming in with clear toeguards (if I recall correctly the OGs had black toeguards) completely covered in inconsiste

#damndaniel I don’t know who ‘Daniel’ is, but I’ve seen his name scribbled on countless Nike production samples, including this pair of @Nike #newmara . I was under the impression ‘GTM’ meant ‘Good To

(3/3) And this is the last pic of the Royal 1s that I’ll post illustrating my point. This is one of the more inconsistent pairs I’ve come across. The right shoe with that #baggy leather and the left s

(2/3) The texture of the leather doesn’t look too inconsistent on this pair...it actually looks similar. The left shoe has more consistent horizontal line creasing while the right shoe has more horizo

(1/3) The Jordan 1 Royal retro from 2017 was an interesting shoe. I saw a few pairs and noticed something strange...It appeared that the leather on the toe box of one of the shoes was far more ‘plasti

With all this concord hype...first the armless Jumpman I posted a few days ago...but why does this Jumpman look like he’s wearing a backwards Kangol? For some reason I can’t tag the OP (@project1of1)

The first time #nike mashed this Air Max 97 with the Air Max Plus sole they called it the ‘one time only’ pack. And any time @nike calls something a ‘one time only’ shoe I’m tricked into buying it 🤦‍♂

And the green pair of the Jumpman Z...the glue stains are a bit more consistent on the green pairs I saw. I should have checked the “Made In” factory tag. I’m interested in figuring out which @nike fa

So this @shoepalace by my apartment is housed in an old community Bank or credit union. Normally they have the vault locked up (and you can look in through the bars), but the other day they were clean

Took a lil trip to the @shoepalace in my neighborhood and took a look at those Jordan Jumpman Zs (the zipper 14 knockoffs) and was confronted with sloppy glue stains around each and every 'tooth'. I'm

Amongst other things...$55 Flea Market pickups. Not eem sure of the name or nickname. Teaching the kids about gerrymandering today...Kinda chilly out but glad it's not raining.

No, sorry. This is not an "8/10". This sole is as good as dead. #whatareyoutalkingabout Question for my OG collectors - do you prefer to own the OGs with unwearable or completely crumbled soles? Or wo

This is my #wdywt for Thursday - the first time I've ever been able to bring my dog to work...ever. He was a nervous wreck but the kids loved him. I think he helped some of the kids focus, too. Anyway

Pretty significant heel drag on this pair of Air Max 95 sneakerboots...I loved this colorway - I wish I understood standard gait so I could comprehend how something like this happens...I'm constantly

The dreaded 'ankle crease' on that same pair of Oly 6s...that same strange staining pattern around the 'pump' holes. How would you grade a flaw like this?

Heart broken. 💔 What would y'all call this damage? Name that shoe!
