 nike fragment design sock darts : 2nd most comfortable shoe i've own after flyknit chukka. too bad they stop making fyknit chukkas

thank you for the gary payton full court assist to shawn kemp alley oop to these atlantic gel sights clarence. 

i don't know why i bought these jordan oreo 4s, but i did.

impulse buys then follow by remorse buys are the worstt

these shoe trees are a necessary accessory to your shoes, no doubt about that

already in use

no words needed as this is just a repost.

end of year kicks and bonus

it has been a while since i last post about shoes. due to the business of student teaching last quarter, i did not have the time to blog about anything. with that being said, school is over and i'm going to go full force on blogging instead of random social media crap such as instagram / twitter / facebook. i feel that blogging is (just a bit) more intimate and in depth.

so let's begin and get back to where i left off months go.

first off:

bodega x asics gel lyte v "get wet" pack

this release was fairly easy to get. initially i did not care about them, but they continue to grow on me...

pusha t x adidas eqt "king push"

adidas execute this pair of shoe with extreme high quality materials. the color is very subtle and the comfort on these are top notch. notice all kinds of different materials on these? that's right!

these are probably the best adidas shoe that i've seen this year.

nike flyknit racer

these are, by far, the most comfortable shoes i've worn. but, sadly, i have to let them go..

why am i letting them go? because they're too colorful for a grown man to wear. 

nike air jordan 11 "legend blue"

what's so speical about these? really?

concepts x new balance 997 "rose" 

new balance 997 made a good come back this year. initially the author's collection consist of 2 997 that have the best quality shoes i've seen. then concepts collaborate with new balance to make this pair. the detail and quality on these are amazing. 3m tongue and heel tab with croc prints is ...l enough said. then, really subtle "pink" suede color to complement the grey/ white.

nike air jordan 13 "bred"

not gonna go into much about these..

nike air jordan 6 "infrared"

as far as i know, these are the first pair (retro-ed like 5 times already) that mj wear to win his first ring. is that the only fact that gets people are hyped up on these? or they're simply good? 

i don't know..

new balance 997's

so i'm selling my nike flyknit racers right now. these are the shoes that i'm currently wearing. they aren't as light and comfortable as the racers, but they provide a solid support and they feel very comfortable. to top it off, these are made in the u.s.a. and they have amazing quality materials on them.

after christmas / before new year bonus.

till next time.

happy new year & God bless you.

christmas present for mama

it's that time of the year again, when the majority of the population in the us of a are busy hustling and bustling with buying stuffs. i didn't buy much and i didnt have time (and money) to buy much. besides, it's kind of crazy driving around places during this kind of season. on december 22, 2014, it marks the 34th anniversary of my parents marriage together. andy and i spent alot of time thinking and arguing what to buy for them, but we ended up betting nothing at all. during dinner, dad pray and thank God for the gift, which are his children. upon hearing his thankful prayer, i realized alot.

on this christmas, i bought a few stuffs for friends and family. but one of my favorite present to give is this pair of air jordan 11 legend blues for mom.

don't forget, the real reason of christmas is Christ coming to earth and save all of us.

gift, family, and all that matter are secondary

enjoy your christmas and happy new year.

june kicks

By far, June is the busiest month of the year. Father's day, Graduations, tight schedule of work, and obviously a massive amount of shoes coming out. I don't know what is it about June, but a lot of these shoes just happen to be released in June. Some of these pictures are from May, which I didn't put into last's month's entry. Some are old but were acquired this month. Enough with the chit-chats. Enjoy the pictures.

may kicks

It's May already and time seems to be flying faster than ever before. The weather fluctuates from 70 to 105 degrees almost 3 times in the past 2 weeks. But getting some more kicks doesn't hurt at all, ha. A couple of these (Jordan 1 AJKO and Nike SB x Diamond Supply Co) were bought a while ago, but still I'd like to include them here. Out of these 5, my favorite here is the Nike Air Max 90 Atmos Duck Camo. The colors and execution is top notch.

(edit) may 24: i added picture of roonie fieg x asics gel lyte v "volcano" and extra butter ny x saucony
