Trendspotting: What’s The Next Big Colorway?
Over the last few years, there have been lots of colorways that have had their moment in the sneaker industry. A sick shoe comes out, everyone falls in love with the color, and from there all kinds of models of different sneakers from different brands start getting pumped out in that colorway. The first example that comes to mind is the South Beach LeBron colorway, with the most recent being the all-red inspired by the Nike Air Yeezy 2.
Although both of those are dope colorways, one could argue that they are becoming somewhat played out. It seems that there have been endless all-red sneaker releases over these last few months, and it may very well be time to move on to the next “hot colorway” if you will.

Summer Style: Potential Trends
With summer here in full effect, it’s time to switch up your wardrobes. The hoodies and beanies go in the closet, and the tanks and shorts come out. There are a few different things that I think will be “in” if you will this summer, and I thought I’d give everyone a little head start on the competition!
Sweatshorts:Â Everyone loves wearing cargos and basketball shorts in the summer, but I think lots of people will migrate towards sweatshorts this summer as a comfy alternative. There are dope Staple sweatshorts available locally at Studiiyo23!

Starting Five: Garvey John
Today, we take a look at the sneakers in rotation for our good friend (and KicksOneTwo creative director Jahmade‘s little brother) Garvey. Everything from SB’s to Flyknit round out a diverse selection of kicks. Check it out!
1. Nike Dunk SB “Mahogany Hemp”
I’m a big fan of Nike SB’s, and you can’t go wrong with any hemp dunk. The mahogany swoosh and the gum midsole seal the deal for me on these.
2 Nike Dunk SB High “Thrashin”
Dunks based off of something are crazy to me, and this movie-inspired pair is one of my favorites. I love the multicolor swoosh too.

Looking Back On Soundset
This last Sunday, the KicksOneTwo staff was in attendance at the annual Soundset Festival. Just like every year, it was a crazy day filled with memorable performances from various dope artists. We thought we’d share our opinions on our favorite performances, as well as throw up a few pictures of the artists (we’ve got one of everyone on this recap except for Snow) by our good friend Adam DeGross.
We had to stop by the Fifth Element tent for Snow’s set. The crowd was very responsive to tracks such as “Good Nights and Bad Mornings”, and she brought a fresh and different type of energy to her performance.

Kick Pic: May 29th
Normally you’re not going to see kick pics on back-to back days, but we thought you’d enjoy an occasional double-up. Here’s Ross rocking the Jordan 1 “Barons”.
