You’ve Gotta See The New Episode Of Sneak Peek
If you’ve been watching Nice Kicks‘s popular series “Sneak Peek”, you probably haven’t been thrilled by the season as a whole, as some episodes have been less than inspired. You can only see so many customs and Jordans before you’re hankering for something new.
Fear not! The new episode harkens to the good old days of Sneak Peek, as the crew visits Phase2‘s house. Known for his crazy sample collection, he doesn’t let the viewer down. Check out the video below and there’s a good chance you’ll see some shoes you’ve never seen before.

Starting Five: Midas Thompson
For this edition of Starting Five, we bring you the five kicks in our good friend Midas Thompson’s rotation. With everything from Adidas to classic Jordan Brand Randy Moss trainers, there’s something for everyone here. Check it out!
1. Nike Hyperdunk “Aston Martin DB9”
I really like Aston Martin, and the execution on this shoe was flawless. It’s the exact same colorway as the car that Kobe jumped over in that infamous video. Super comfortable and made with premium materials.

Sneaker Nicknames: Are They Played Out?
If there’s one thing that sneakerheads love to a fault, it’s giving nicknames to shoes. From classic models to new releases, every shoe that comes out seems to have some sort of nickname nowadays.
There are classic and useful nicknames like “Bred” for any black/and red Jordan, or “Volt” for any neon yellow/green sneaker, but the usefulness of sneaker nicknames dries up somewhat quickly. In today’s sneakerhead world, it seems like there has to be some sort of nickname or deeper meaning for every single shoe that’s dropping every single weekend.

The Evolution Of Sneakers And One’s Personal Style
Let me start by saying this is a fun topic to discuss and muse upon. Sneakers and style are two of my very favorite things, and when you bring them together it just works, like peanut butter and jelly, or Shawn Carter and Kanye West. However, bringing them together can prove a challenge. You’ve gotta make sure your sneakers work with your outfit, and your outfit works with your sneakers. Let’s spend some time talking about personal style, and the sneaker choices that go along with it.

Is Wearing Fake Jordans OK?
You’ve most likely seen a few pairs in your life. It’s possible you’ve even worn a pair yourself. Maybe they were a crazy color scheme. Maybe they were see-through plastic. Maybe they had SpongeBob SquarePants on the side. If you haven’t guessed it by now, we’re talking about fake Jordans.
Yes, fake Jordans. The ones you buy from the guy with a bunch of pairs in the back of his truck. The ones you get on the websites that have several misspellings and offer outrageously low prices. But we’re not talking about the fake shoes themselves, we’re talking about if it’s OK to rock them or not.
