Someone in the DMs recommended this @nytimes article to me and it took me a few days to take a look, but it was worth it. I was trying to figure out exactly what was going on (it's long). The goal of

Y'all ever find yourself confused by these releases?
I heard 'Air Max 2013' and my mind couldn't even bring to light the actual silhouette. Then I heard 'stussy' and I had to look it up.
I NEVER c

Instead of just parroting what everyone says about new releases…ima just start showing you the deals I been finding lately. Ain’t no need to spend a bunch of money on shoes everyone tells you you shou

I know this isn't the first, nor is it the offensive, but this whole notion of 'pre-distressed' rides a really fine line 🤣
That stuff that @balenciaga did earlier...with those trashed whatever-the-fu

I know I asked about laces the other day (week) and I’m still getting comments on that post…
So I decided to work on my own lace job.

The first time going to one of these shows can be overwhelming...the first one I went to was in like 2010 in DC and it was good IMO...but...every one I went to after that just reminded me of the first

Recent thrift pickup…
As a reminder - you don’t have to keep up with the blogs. There are plenty of dope ass shoes out there for hella cheapppppp

And so you gotta ask yourself...
What is the hype all for? Is it for myself? or is it for someone else?
I get, literally, nothing from seeing the vast majority of these collections...I see no value

A lot of it seems to be about signaling.
I fall prey to it sometimes, too. I think I see things about a week before most other people (who talk about them) see them. So I either swoop in about a wee

So I subscribe to this newsletter called @fatherly and it's basically just short-ish articles giving advice or whatever about what it's like to be a father. I don't spend too much time on it, but ever

#NBAOneDay Subset #3: ‘(W)NBA One Day’
I approached @sneakerdave with the idea of a card set and we talked for a few minutes before agreeing upon an idea…I was transfixed by his collection of 90’s a

The thing is...if you're like *really* into something, the sensationalism probably doesn't get to you.
You probably pay attention to your section of what it is, and that's what it is to you.

I'm really just curious...how many of y'all enter these 'raffles'?
The whole 'sign up for a raffle so you get a chance to buy something' concept is so foreign to

Speaking of size 17/18 shoes...the pair on the left came across my 'authentication desk' and they were a size 17.5...low and behold, the ONLY other pair in the world (for sale) appears to ALSO be a si
Sep 11, 2022
Yeah...I copped these back in 2013 or so for $9.99 from my local Marshall's. Figured I could get that much back on eBay. Think it took me nearly a year to sell them and I only got like $29.99 for them

Saw this 'cash out' on Twitter the other day and thought...'man...I wish I could rid of 50+ pairs in one transaction'
I dunno...what do y'all think of a trade like this? 50+ pairs of newer hype for

What would it take for you to get rid of your whole collection?
What would it take for you to scale back to just 5 pairs?
I think about this often. I wish I had the willpower to appreciate without

Yeah, I've gotten carried away with a pair from time to time...but...these ain't it, chief.

So this whole 'flippy floppy' thing, brought about by @virgilabloh and the whole 'ten' thing, always looked like a pain in the ass to me. Like it just looked like something I couldn't wear, especially

Yea...I would never...
BUT. I do, sometimes, feel like lacing shoes can be an art...
It's so dumb and it's so ridiculous but that's kind of what makes some things interesting.

The more I see Huaraches - the more I'm convinced this is one of the TIMELESS silhouettes by Nike. There is no big, gaudy swoosh *anywhere* on the shoe and it just *works* in thous
