Thoughts on The Adidas Yeezy 3

If you’ve been within five feet of a computer sometime in the last day, you’ve already seen the news blasted at you from seemingly every site on the internet. Yes, it’s happened. Yeezy season just might be upon us (if it ever ended in the first place).

As you already know, supposedly the first images of the hotly-discussed Adidas Yeezy 3 have surfaced. IBN Jasper, Kanye’s longtime barber and friend uploaded six different pictures of the Yeezy 3 on his Instagram, and threw the sneaker and hip-hop world into a frenzy. People have been speculating what the shoes would look like ever since Kanye left Nike to join forces with the 3 Stripes, and now the speculation can finally come to an end. If you’ve been cut off from pop culture for the last 24 hours, here’s a snap of the shoe so you can see for yourself. read more

Top 5 Sneaker Releases This Weekend

After yesterday’s quick expedition into the world of fashion, we’re back to the kicks, and it’s a busy weekend (including today) with several releases! Here’s the top 5 in my opinion, in order.

5. Neighborhood x Adidas Consortium Superstar

The folks at Neighborhood and Adidas Consortium came together to put a little spin on the classic Superstar. A black reptile-style leather adorns the upper with white accents and the Neighborhood logo embossed in white on the heel.

4. Asics Gel Lyte V “Army Green/Tweed” read more

Subjective Style

At some point in your life, someone who might have been older and wiser than you has most likely told you that there are certain things that you shouldn’t discuss. In that list of things, the person who might have been older and wiser than you most likely included politics, religion, and sports. Those can all be somewhat taboo subjects. People have strong feelings about all three of those topics, and they can lead to some heated arguments.

Another topic that falls in with that group just might be style. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not in the slightest way saying you shouldn’t discuss style with someone who may have a different perspective on it than you do. As a matter of fact, I never agreed with these “older and wiser” folks because I found it very enjoyable to discuss all the topics listed in that first paragraph that were supposed to be off-limits. read more

Fuck, That’s Delicious

I’ll let you know off top: This doesn’t have anything at all to do with sneakers. However, it’s the middle of the week and you could likely use some entertainment to help you get through hump day.

If you’re an avid watcher of the wonderful Fuck That’s Delicious web series like I am, then there’s a pretty good chance you’ve already seen this. If not, you’re in for a treat. Like Action Bronson? Like food? Then this is right up your alley. Sit back, relax, and enjoy. Hopefully this makes your Wednesday go by a bit quicker. read more

You’ve Gotta See The New Episode Of Sneak Peek

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. read more
