Stealth III's


What's good fam? Today I'm going to be talking about the Stealth Air Jordan III's. If you didn't know these are dropping tomorrow, September 3rd. This is a brand new colorway of the Air Jordan III and not a lot of people are feeling them. We haven't seen too many new colorways in the Jordan III's, the most recent being the Doerenbecher and the BHM's. But I think the new colorway is dope.

My Thoughts on a Watermelon Yeezy 2


     If you're a sneakerhead and you don't live under a rock, you would know that Kanye West debuted a new colorway of the Yeezy 2's at the 2011 VMA's. But before I get into this post, let me ask you, who told you this was going to happen?! Why don't you guys peep my last post before this where it talks about how Kanye will be doing a surprise performance with Jay-Z and he will be rocking Yeezy 2's. Haha, but seriously you guys should stick with me, who else knew that was going to happen?

When to Expect the YEEZY 2


     The hype on the Air Yeezy 2 has been building since Kanye West first debuted the shoe in Kobe's Black Mamba Video. Since the Mamba video we have seen Kanye rocking the Yeezy 2's at Coachella, in Paris, and we saw them in the Watch the Throne documentary. But tonight might be the first time we get a good solid look at the Yeezy 2.

Hypebeast?

     Hypebeast is a term that is very loosely thrown around and usually used very incorrectly. Hype is usually associated with more high end, limited items. Things such as Louis Vuitton, Supreme, Nike SB (Quickstrike's), Yeezy's, Ambush Pow Chains, Snapbacks (Ti$a), along with many other things are considered "hyped" products. I personally think that people who label others as hypebeasts are either jealous or hypebeasts themselves.

Being a "YoungGun" and a Young Sneakerhead

  
     If you guys don't know I was just featured in TheSneakerGuru's latest blog post of "Young Guns." I've been looking up to Guru for a while now, ever since I stumbled upon his page on twitter. Really cool dude. I was fortunate enough to meet him last May at Sneakercon, and I saw his infamous Yellow Lobsters.

Being Different



     What's good fam? Today I'm going to be talking about the whole sneaker youtube community. That shit is getting SO played out. So Sneakgeekz started it all a couple years back. He did reviews on Jordans. Right after him, a few others emerged such as Franalations, Stickie213, JumpmanBostic, etc. I would consider myself in the third wave of YouTube reviewers. The first was Sneakgeekz. Then the people who have been in it for a little while such as Fran and the people I just listed, and then there's me.

Questioning the Authenticity of Early Release Pairs

     As of lately there has been a lot of drama going on in the sneaker world. The reason behind all this drama is early release pairs. With the Concord XI's reretroing in Dec 2011, the overseas sites have began selling their early release pairs. If you don't know the whole low down on the B-Grade/ Fake scheme I will try my best to explain it to you below.
