Nike Air Max 90 Current Premium x Ben Drury

As a fan of the AM90 Currents, I approve this latest design by Ben Drury. Done in various hues of blue and what looks to be a nice suede upper, comfort mixed with a touch class never hurt a soul.

“What Does Not Kill Me Makes Me Stronger…”

No closet can have too many blue oxford shirts. After that, the color spectrum branches out particular to the wearer, but gray would be another dominant color, or at least that’s how it plays out in my closet. STPL updates some of the basics with their Winter line, including this simple shirt...

Nike Trainer 1 Mid: Bo Knows

While the Trainer SC’s are getting a lot of attention (specifically the 34’s), these 2009 Trainer 1 Mid’s have my eye. Having seen the 34’s and knowing that leather is paper-thin, I’ll go with these 2009’s for durability & comfort.

Cop: Clarks Original Weaver

With or without the Wu’s prestigious cosign, I’ve remained a fan of Clarks Originals. I wear’em all, from Wallys to drivers all the way to a few from the UnStructured Series with the Un.Click being one of my go-to’s for work-wear. Looks like I’ll have a new one to add to...

Cop: Polo Cotton-Linen Flag Sweater

It’s not too often that I’ll even consider paying retail for anything Polo, mainly because anything off the beaten path will normally hit the sales rack, at least in this area. But when they bring back a classic design or line from years previous, my knee-jerk reaction is always to grab...

Cop: The KiD CuDi Concert Tee

Not sure what part of the game it is but now you can front like you went to the Hangover Tour, even if you didn’t. Or maybe you went but had one too many $7 beers and got too drunk/forgot to cop the shirt. Whatever. Anything for a buck baby! All money’s green, including yours.

Nike AM95 x JD Sports

The gradient grays mixed with a neon blue and wee bit of yellow. Don’t have a hookup across the pond? Better make a friend if you want these runners.

Jack Threads Headwear Sale

Since we were on the topic of headgear (||) the other day, this seems like a nice coincidence. By the time you read this, sizes will probably be wiped out but I wasn’t about to totally wipe out our posting schedule to accommodate the sale. However, if you’re familiar with how Jack Threads...

Marcus Jordan Won’t Wear Your Stinkin’ Adidas

They could not have possibly believed this kid was going to wear anything but Jordan or Nike. But they recruited him anyway (and probably lied assured him he could wear whatever he chose) and now they have a stink brewing at the University of Central Florida, as young Marcus Jordan will not take the...
