One of the OGz in the online (street) culture space is back in a big way. Don't call it a come back ...they've been here before - we're looking forward to seeing the great content from the evil monkey pick up from where they left off. Check out EvilMonito.com which to me is the anti-thesis of hype blogs. Keep thinking!

here is the newest update photo from air-randy.com the " AIR JORDAN SPIZ'IKE - COOL GREY - EUROPE 2008 LIMITED RELEASE " which everybody is waiting for !!!

My first pair of Jays OG Grapes. I didnt want them I wanted Ninja Turtle joints. This is relavent because my Dad bought them instead of the TMNT joints. He passed away on April 11, he always made sure I was fresh. He was my best friend. He started this sneaker addiction 19 years ago. I love him, I miss him. And I need to stay fly because he dreesed better than me. He was actually the best dressed person I knew. He wore stuff we never even heared of. he liked to wear stuff that everyone couldnt afford or even knew exsisted. I copped him the 18.5 in the white leather colorway. he rocked em a few times and eventually gave em back to me to add to the massive collection. I tried to get him to cop a couple of jays but he would say "If they dont cost more than $300 I aint wearing it" he was so fly. needless to say I coped the grapes when they retoed they still DS now that he is gone its gonna be even harder to rock em. Love You Dad.

this weekend the vault will be cracked and the heat will be going up.

here is the newest update photo from air-randy.com the " AIR JORDAN RETRO 6 OLYMPIC SIX RING COLORWAY 2008 LIMITED RELEASE " which everybody is waiting for !!!

So I picked up the Piet Mondrian's today, and I have to let you know that they're a pretty darn cool shoe. While they're not nearly as loud as some of the recent releases (Skate or Dies!, 720's, Feel Goods, Buellers), it's their simplicity that sets them apart from recent releases.

The Thrashin' was also made available today, but seeing as I'm not a huge fan of highs and I think they're a little too loud for my tastes, I went with JUST the Piets. The shoe is composed of canvas and nubuck, with red, yellow, and blue paneling to represent the artwork of Mr. Mondrian himself. The shoe comes with a spare bag of white laces, and black laces on out of the box.

The Piet is a quickstrike for the month of May, which means there aren't going to be TOO many, although if you try you'll be able to get your hands on a pair. I'd suggest getting some sooner rather than later, as it's a release that's worth your time and money.

Just my two cents...

And check my gallery for detailed pics.

want them to be one of a kind...?
Sent me a post and i'll hook you up!
More info 2 come...

PREVIEW:

something from the Nike Kitchen Portland.

The latest collabo from Mita-Hectic-New Balance, which came out just a couple of days ago in Japan.

We had plenty of models(this being 10th or 11th...) but this sure looks great.





I'm still thinking about getting the other color....if they ever come out on Yahoo Japan auctions ('bay for us)

So far the best kicks of the year for me.
This one killed it and my girl loved it, too! (and mother-in-law)

Yea, I said it.

A lot of people, especially around Sneakerplay, ISS, and NikeTalk have an affection for Jordans that I don't quite understand. Now before I get jumped on and flamed, let me elaborate.

I understand the impact that the Jordan I had on shoe culture. It's the single most important shoe ever created, and for a multitude of reasons. Without the Air Jordan, I wouldn't be posting this blog on a website called 'sneakerplay', you wouldn't have your collection of Jordans, SB's, or ALIFE's, and I'm willing to be that Nike wouldn't be where they are today.

Of course the Jordan brand sneaker has become an annual release in Nike's lineup, and has an offshoot of their own. There have been 23 releases of the official Jordan shoe, but countless, and I do mean countless variations.

Now that I've established my knowledge on the shoe, and let you all know I understand how important Jordan's are to Nike and the shoe culture in general, let me let you all know my personal feelings.

Jordans are overrated, over hyped, and in general over appreciated.

There are a select few Jordans that I like (III's, XI's, XII's, and XXIII's), but every other release can go to hell in a hand basket. Why? Because tools camp out to re purchase a shoe that's been released for a third time now. We have the original release (which if you're collecting more power to you), the retro's (eh), and now the packs that everyone goes ga-ga over. There's really no way for me to say this delicately, so I'm forced to be blunt.

Don't think I'm trying to hurt your feelings, but please, know that these are my true thoughts...

The Jordan brand is making each and every one of you fools. You're constantly buying re released sneakers at marked up prices, waiting in line for them, and creating little to no exclusivity when it comes to shoe collectors. Part of the reason people collect Jordans is because there are only a certain number of releases they can collect. There are 23 signature shoes, and regardless of if you bought the original or retro, you're being screwed over with 'packs'. In all honesty, the Jordan brand is laughing in their castle made of cash while you shell out $400 for a pack of two shoes, and in some cases... a pair of god damn jeans. You're all fools for buying 'New Love/Old Loves'. You all look like assclowns when you buy a pair of shoes with jeans packed in, and show little to no willpower each and every time you line up for a shoe that's on its third release.

Buy the originals. Stop encouraging re-releases, and quit padding Michael Jordan's pockets with retarded amounts of cash because you get two shoes in one box, and even then... you're paying more than retail.

I laugh at each and every Jordan release, and can't wait until the 'These kids are retarded/Will collect my feces in a box' pack to come out.

You'll probably pay $350 for that one too.

Well, I was helping my parents with cleaning up the garage., It was a reall mess. A complete chaos!!

In a box with old pictures and cd's I found an old pair of Nikies. I totally forgot the shoes. But when I saw the shoes, I remembered.

I bought this pair from a friend of mine in 1998. The model is from 1995. I tried to look up for some info about the shoe. But I can't find anything..

Maybe here's someone, who can help me out??

It's an Air Max '95 High / Basketball ??

Upcoming drops for the fellas, but this time- more drops for the ladies.
