Love the 89s.

 

Theo I got a mate who fucks hard with Sauconys, I'm liking them more and more. I also tried some Asics on the other day, shit was COMFY.

 

Yeah Sauconys made a mark back in the day and is a classic shoe -- it just didn't get the shine it deserved. I remember a lot of girls wore Sauconys too.

 

They're doing a lot of collabos now and being creative, and using high-quality materials. The suede on those Neapolitan Sauconys is the best suede I've ever felt on a shoe. Like from a suede leather jacket. Some people might not be into them because they don't have the hype, but ultimately I check for quality and style, not just "does it have a Swoosh or Jumpman logo."

 

Asics are cool too. I have one pair; the "Kill Bills":

If you look closely; the midsole has little red "blood" droplets on it.

hah! those snow beach ones are great.

i love creative drops like that.

 

Word I like the collabs... Packer Shoes always seems to deliver on the collabs.

 

From what I hear from people who own that shoe, it feels like the jacket. The yellow feels like the outside of the jacket and the red inner-lining is a fleece material like on the jacket...

These are the only two shoes I'm checking for this month... and I'll be done buying I think for the rest of the year.

i picked up my first pair of penguins. (waylon - light brown, lighter than shown here). they're expensive, which made me wild apprehensive, but ... holy shit. these are comfortable ... and i get props from all the pale girls with liberal arts degrees.

the air max TAVAS look dope but so fragile ... i can't wait for the nike free trend to go away.

yea the green glow tavas looked nice but I just can't get with that free trend either.

 

Anyone ever customised any kicks?

Gave it a blast today on an old pair of AF1s I had knocking around, still need to touch up a few places and do the tongues but quite happy.

Sauconys inspired by Raekwon's Ralph Lauren "Snow Beach" pullover from the 'Can It All Be So Simple' video in the 90s.

 

Designed by Packer Shoes & Just Blaze

People don't pay attention to releases unless the shoe has a Swoosh or a Jumpman on it. Herd mentality. Which is good because that means it's easier for the rest of us to cop the other brands, and at reasonable prices even when resold. I got a lot of dope rare kicks from Reebok, Asics, and Saucony at affordable prices.
