My Kind of Town

At long last...the elusive "Chicago" Jordan X! This bad boy dodged me in 1995...now I'm elated to have this retro.

Free Your Mind

Retailers are starting to unveil some "+" colorways of the Huarache Free BBall & runner...but its strictly OG colorways for me...


These take me back to 1992...


...and these remind me of C-Webb & Juwan Howard!


If you're snagging, the runners run small and the basketball ones run big...

All Star Trio

Durant...Kobe...Bron

Bringing Leather Back...

My favorite Asics shoe of the moment -- the Ronnie Fieg "Leatherback" Gel Lyte III...


Quality materials, timeless colorway and the comfort of an Asics runner...a winner!


At first I hated the split tongue, but you really don't notice it and it adds character...


Remember to go a half size up when buying a GL 3!

Yes!

Best news I have heard all day...Dave White x Air Jordan 1 releasing in February!

These > Cement 4s

Sweet Home, Chicago

Did you get your pair this morning?

Sparty On

With Michigan State headed to Ann Arbor tonight to face Michigan, its only appropriate we show you the Kevin Durant "Sparty" KD 4...


OK...I coined the nickname, but wouldn't Draymond Green & Keith Appling look sharp in these? Go Spartans!

Run...away?

Some hits from the Free Run 1 (5.0) are seen on the upper...


...nice spring/summer colorway...


...speed lacing a nice touch...


But...


...what the!? The Free sole flares out like THAT!? Yuck!!

Closer, Actually

For all the hate the white/cement AJ 4 retro has been getting recently, its actually closer in detail to the original...


The main complaint is that people think the 99 Retro is closer to the OG, but the tiny splatter paint on this year's retro is actually closer...


There is still no denying the 2012's retro won't touch the 1999 retro's quality.


My pairs of white & black Cement 4s from 1999 have stood the test of time...


Also, here is one more idea done to some AJ 3 retros for those that are willing to carve up a pair of the 2012 to look like OGs...

Best Year of Jordan Retros EVER?

I came across this pic recently...shows a mini-collage of all the Jordan retros dropping this year. I am not sure why the Air Jordan 12 "Taxi" is on there, unless the artist knows something I don't know.

Nonetheless, lots of nice stuff. It all starts next week with the Air Jordan 10 "Chicago".

Red Dawn

Not only did the Miami Heat lose last night in LA to the Clippers for their first-back-to-back losses of the season, but LeBron unveiled a new colorway of the LJ 9. Not sure if its an iD, but its simple & clean...

Slam City

With Chris Paul playing for the Clippers, LA has been called "Lob City" lately. But let's be honest -- it's Blake Griffin's team. Here's a peek at the shoe he's currently playing in...the Nike Hyperdunk 2011 PE (Blake Griffin edition)...





The only difference between the pair released and the one he is wearing is a red outsole...

Weezy In The Yeezy

Two days ago Lil Wayne was spotted wearing the Nike Yeezy courtside at a Hawks/Heat game. With the Yeezy 2 coming in just two months, lets take a closer look at the best colorway of the Yeezy 1...the Net/Net.








Bonus pic...Hova in the Yeezy 2...

These > XMas Cheetahs

The Kobe 7 Supreme "YOTD" up close and personal. These things crush that Christmas QS....

Dragon Ball Z

You've seen the China make-up for the LBJ 9...


Now get ready for the KD4 to be done up in a similar colorway...


and for the AJ 2012, AF1, and Kobe 7 to be given "Year Of The Dragon" treatment...


Release date unknown for the whole pack. Stay tuned.
