I picked these up on the 7th of this month but never had a picture of them till now;

"Stussy" Huarache light



For some reason flightclub had them for $200 but I picked these up on hypebeast forum for $85.00 shipped. I became a fan of the Huarache light after seeing both QS releases with the Jordan XI "bred" and "cool grey" colorway. There's really not much to say about this shoe other than the level of comfort and support you'd expect from a running shoe. I've been wearing them for the pass few days straight, it's RARE I do that with any shoe but I can't get over the over all look and feel of it. The color pops a little too much for my liking but I thought it would be ideal to pick them up as a work out shoe.

Lets talk about the new Mcfly (Back 2 The future) leaked pictures.

Before we do lets go back to the first round;



In 1989 the infatuation with the sneaker began. Since than there's been rumors about Nike releasing the shoe, petitions to get Nike to release the shoe, 309849023489230 custom sneakers.

The blue prints to the actual shoe and patten for the idea was leaked out on sneaker forums everywhere which started the uproar back up once again;



The ACTUAL prop from the movie hits ebay, the first time I saw the link the biding was at a cool $2,000 with a few days left on it. The winning bid was $5,300;




With all the hype that this fictional shoe has started though out the year one man decided to....not make it happen but make something very similar to it. His name; Kobe.

Nike and Kobe hit everyone with the 2015 Hyperdunk. The shoe sold out within minutes of being sold at UNDFTD LA and within hours or purchase the shoe hit many forums and ebay for a cool $1,000;



Hands down the BEST release of 2008.

Not the real deal but pretty damn close, huh? Well Nike went ahead with there skateboard line (Nike SB) and released yet another "Mcfly" inspired shoe. This time Nike decided to use their TRE AD model. For the inspiration the TRE AD fits in just right. Everyone jumped on the bandwagon and stopped talking shit on this model after this shoe released.



Shoes featured a glow in the dark swoosh and speckled midsole which turned a generally nice heather grey shoe into a neck breaker. Recently I was able to pick up a pair in a trade with a local head.

So whats next for this colorway? Is all the Mcfly inspired shoes done for? Not jsut yet.

Pictures surfaced the internet the pass week of a new "Mcfly" inspired shoe by Nike. The Nike Hypermax. pay no mind to the "tennis ball" Hypermax no the right. Although it IS a nice shoe that's another topic for another time.



The Marty McFly Nike Hypermax features a grey nylon upper accented with the same powder blue and pink accents found on the Hyperdunks and the Nike Air Mag’s in the Back To The Future movie. The Nike Swoosh and strap are finished in white, as well is the tongue which is made of mesh. The mid-sole is done in grey and includes the blue speckle pattern which many people have come to love on the McFly Hyperdunks.

Grow up

I'm 23 years old, what the fuck am I doing here? Where am I going? I NEED to have my business management degree in the by the time I'm 25 years old. I hate thinking about growing up but I hate knowing that I can do so much better....

ITT;

I should have others working for me instead of working for others

I hate this conversations about my life and where I'm going with it.




In other news;

I talked to my business partners and we're still on the look out for a venue.

Austin, they say?

while in Austin I've been getting number of buildings down 6th that were leasing but I noticed that with the smoking laws in Austin we'd need something with a patio which isn't the easiest thing to find.

So until then we're still looking in San Antonio. I have one place in mind thats in the heart of Broadway but it's been such a pain trying to set up a meeting with the owner of the building, even more so when he doesn't return phone calls.

So what about the Sin13 building?

$90,000 is way too much for that shit hole. If there were any way we could get it bumped down to $50,000 than we could start the paper work. Nick and I have already drawn out blue prints as to how we'd remodel the building.....

If no one buys it I'm sure SAC will buy the building to knock it down and use it a a parking lot.

I'm calling it.

jack of all trades

Updating my resume. You name it, I've done it.

In other news;

I knocked Justin the fuck out the other night. Think twice before name dropping.

Something fishy

Is in the air

I don't know about this but I think it's going to try and get in the way of a good thing I have going on.

Kill or be killed

I have a bad habit of befriending the cutthroats.

Thrill Kill Kult played tonight at Rock Bottom. Really good for a short set.



Omar Salazar Nike SB Shoe Sample




"Nike SB blessed Paul Rodriguez with his own signature shoe and this year Stefan Janoski’s shoe will makes its debut. Up next to get their own Nike SB shoe is pro skater Omar Salazar. Here we have an early look at Omar’s upcoming shoe. Is that Flywire along the back panel? A simple sneaker that features “Omar Salazar” on the tongue.

We don’t have any info about when Omar’s kicks will drop, so stay tuned. Props to Chris Gomez for sending us the images".

via theshoegame.com


So let me start off by saying, REALLY? Like really? R U SRS NIKE SKATEBOARDING?

First off let me just say this shoe is a mess!

*Flywire? Cement print on skate shoes is out, flywire is in?

*Looks like a mid without the strap

*Looks like a mid with a blazer midsole

*The toe cap design looks like the same Nike used for the FC

*The Name on the tongue.....COME ON!!! As un original as this shoe is of course they'd go out and take the swagger jack the Jordan VI tongue for this shoe.

*I'm sure just like the Blazer model the shoe will widen after a few skate sessions

This shoe probably isn't as bad as the Janoski (skate wise). The Janoski model look more like a summer shoe that has NO ankle support what so ever. I'm not even sure how I feel about the P-Rod 3 model coming out in the next month or so. By the looks of it and as I was told the toe cap is too high and would probably need a lot of breaking into before any serious skating can be done in them

Nike SB should stop fucking around and just bring back the delta force model.

In other news;

Nick, Chris, and I have decided that we've ran out of clubs to promote at.

Only option;

Open up our own venue

This has been a dream of mine for a long time now. I have pretty much jotted down a list of everything needed in order to make this happen....the legal way.

Spots we've looked into;

The Sanctuary; Fuck you, Mark. RIP awesome venue, hello shitty goth club.

Used car dealership on Broadway; Interview on Tuesday.

Funtown; Found out Sergio's wife's relative owns the building. Place has the potential to became a great outdoor/indoor venue.

Sin 13 ($90,000)...Honestly now......$50,000 is PUSHING IT for that building.

IF AND I MEAN IF this were to happen I think I'd knock down the dj booth and reopen the room were it once was giving me enough room to extend the dance floor a good five feet. RIP THAT MOLDY ASS CARPET OUT! I can not stress over it any longer. I know for a fact that since that place was sin 13 the carpet has never been pulled out. Coolers! I can not take any club seriously that does not have either a walk in cooler or a cooler in the beer room to keep back up beer cold in case the bartenders start running out. I say that as a bar back.

So the question here is;

Will this be a night club or a music venue?

Both

It's pretty easy to run a successful venue if done properly. Most night clubs run their business Wed-Sat. It would be stupid to be closed Sun-Tues so why not? Unless; of course, you can afford to do so. Also Any show that would take place on a Wed-Sat would be finished by 9:30 SHARP with dance night starting at 10.

Nick, Chris, I have enough money to make this happen and as much as I'd love to jump into it I wouldn't want to have to follow in the steps of Sin 13. There's a place out there somewhere in this town.

When shit hits the fan

I'm never around when this happens. Maybe it's for the best.

Seaglow project/New pick ups

Been working on this seaglow job now for the pass 3 weeks. Since the weather's been bad I've been taking a break. As you can tell the shoe on the left has been undergoing treatment. Whats with the hand lotion? I use it for the leather or in this case the snake skin on the show. Leather like human skin dries. Whats good for dry skin? Lotion....unscented only! Try it sometime, it'll make your shoes gloss.

Union X Kaws tee



I don't care too much for the majority of what Kaws does but for $13.00 I couldn't pass up. Shirt was bought @ buffalo Exchange in Austin, Tx


Supra "grape" Cruizer



Nothing special here. I just loved the colorway of this shoe. Since the grape V is one of my favorite Jordan's I thought it would be nice to add to the collection. Wore the shoes pretty much out the store for a good eight hours and they did NOT crease.

I wont leave you hanging anymore, don't give up just yet.
