Militarized Zone

I have not been the biggest fan of Brand Jordan's retro quality lately, but I had to pull the trigger on some new Military AJ 4s...

The shape & color of the 2012 retro is on point, but my only complaint is the fit. 

I am normally a sz 10 in most Jordan retros, but the IIIs & IVs seem to run huge. 

I had a pair of the 2006 retro and a sz 10 fit just right; I am swimming in these size 10s...

Many people who purchased Obsidian XIIs this past weekend complained of the same thing.  My sz 13 buddy fit into a sz 11.5 pair!

In addition to the goofy timings of release date launches now, are we at a point now where we have to actually try these on before buying em?!?

Supa Dupa Joke

Move over Ashton Kutcher!

Word to my dude Jake for punking every sneaker message board and sneaker news site with the above image.  He led everyone to believe his above photo was a sample of an upcoming Danny Supa Nike SB Retro; instead, it was a custom job even with a custom "Feng Tay" sample tag.

Punk'd!

Steeling The Show

One of my all-time favorite New Balance sneakers is the NB1300.  To me its one of the most versatile sneakers for everyday use. 

You can wear these for a night out or a day trip, even do a light workout in the gym in them.  A timeless classic.

 

 

A "Made In The USA" model, this "Steel Blue" colorway features a premium sueded nubuck and light blue mesh.

 

Whether you are a sneakerhead or just an average Joe, this is a must in any shoe rotation...

Let The Hype Begin!

Yeezy 2 madness starts this week with the black/pink & pure platinum colorways dropping Saturday.  It's only Monday morning and there are 7 'heads in line already at House of Hoops State Street!
