What do y'all think about the upcoming @off____white x @nike Air Force 1 mid? Material looks cool, main colors are simple enough, detail colors are ok (did it have to be pink and blue?), and I love

I know this is like the dumbest thing in the world, but I am an absolute SUCKER for some jewel swooshes. I can’t explain why, but for real, I just really like them. AF1’s, AM1’s, AM90’s, Cortez’…I eve

Bootleg alert!!! I’m starting to see a lot of these LV x AF1’s posted on Chinese social media and I think we’re gonna start seeing quite a few out here…The Empreinte leather pairs - the monotoned mono

My pickup of the week 😂 Pretty sure I sold a brand new pair of these on @whatnot a few months ago for $170 or so. I’ve been trying to get my hands on a pair of these for a long time…Rucker (Kobe) A

Not sure how many of you have been drooling over those LV AF1’s at Sotheby’s (s/o to @pgknows and @solesupreme giving us that up close look) but I stumbled across an article about them and my opinion

Screenshotted these a few days ago on FB…I believe the account was called ‘Goods and Services LA’… At first glance I’m more curious than anything… A deeper look and I’m usually like ‘eh does it work

Allow me to bless your feed with the ever-elusive SpongeBob AF1’s that came across my auth desk this morning. Patent leather upper with a wicked iteration of SpongeBob’s body. Siiiiick!!!

This is so weird. I don’t think it’s the first time @stockx and @nike have worked together on a release (pretty sure they did it with a Lebron model ~5 years ago)…but it is kind of weird. I know Nik

How y’all feel about the Fukijama AF1’s? Tbh when they unearthed the blue pair on ‘Entourage’ I had zero interest 😂 they look hella messy to me. This pair has become kinda mythical tho, with the @pg

I know this probably isn’t the inspiration, but the carbon fiber patterned strap on the Nike Pro Streak is the first thing I saw. Not sure how I feel about the colorway that leaked…but I like the st

That ‘fakes’ post from the other day (yeah, I know, yet another about fake shoes) made me think about the notion of a ‘grail’. Back in the day...maybe 2003, I had a list of 4 shoes on my grail lis

One thing I’ll never understand is how brand new dunks (AJ1’s, and sometimes AF1’s) come with pre-dirtied midsoles...and I’m not totally sure how to clean them. Shoes that have a white sock liner and

I know I said I was totally into the idea of backwards swooshes, but I dunno about this one... @travisscott x #airmax1 looks modified...why are there round panels? Colorways are kinda ‘meh’, too. I will reserve full judgement til they hit the streets but I’m not real excited with any of these. On a side note - how funny is it that Travis Scott is the dude who seems to be driving the AJ1, AJ4, Dunk Low and AF1 markets into the stratosphere? Is this going to result in the Travis effect hitting A
