What's your flavor, tell me what's your flavor (shouts to Craig David, lol)? Since football OTAs are starting across the country we thought it would be fun to show some love to the cleat side of the shoe industry. Our focus will be on Colt's great, Marvin Harrison, whom rocked some insane PEs in his playing days. He lead...
Everyone wishes they had a 'plug' to their favorite shoe brands... "I gotta boy at Adidas that keeps me laced." "Oh these, got these from my guy at Jordan Brand." "S/O to the connect, bless up." Having an inner channel straight to your favorite shoes is a privilege not many know. A super exclusive group of people (or...
Too often in this country do male sports fans discredit women's sporting leagues. Tennis, golf, and volleyball attract spectators without much effort mostly due to their historical credibility.

When I can't fall asleep at night, I don't count sheep. I count the top-10 samples in Nike Basketball history that'd want in my collection. No joke, I literally do this when restless. Typically, 4-5 of my dream samples are LeBrons, more specifically, LeBron VII's. The Jason Petrie design has a devout following for it's classic elements like...
2010 saw the release of (arguably) Kobe's finest signature shoe, the Zoom Kobe VI. Their weight, cut, support, detailing and traction were designed by Eric Avar with Kobe's aggressive play-style in mind. Like any shoe Nike developed and refined their ideas which ultimately lead to the Kobe VI we've known and loved. For today's Sample Sunday take a...
I was having a cup of coffee at Deadstock Coffee (check them out here) in Portland, OR this weekend and found something quite unique. The shop's walls are littered with various shoes from different brands and eras. As I drank, an odd pair of Hyperdunks caught my eye and I thought... WHAT ARE THOSE!!?! The upper is a...
♪He is just an icon living ♪♫... in Los Angles ... and it's sweet being the local Nike sponsored university. The icon is Kobe Bryant (not Jayden Smith) and that lucky school is USC. For over a decade the Trojans of USC have been lacing up Kobe signature basketball shoes. Recently they've been relegated to less eye catching, but serviceable, TB (team bank...
