So it seems, Boston and it’s crappy referees have had a dandy ol’ time with our divine and majestic Knicks.  Yeah, welcome to MSG bitches.  Anyway, the Jordan brand is soon to release “player exclusive”, whatever the fuck player exclusive means, Jordan Spizikes.  Don’t know how much, but let’s hope for Jordan’s sake they release these suckers for the public soon or our buddies on Canal Street will do it for them instead.  Go New York go New York go.

The color, the texture, everything is so cool and smooth about these suckers.  Maybe.  Maybe, it could be a really good picture. Maybe.  Or maybe Timberland is coming out with some really classy shit now.  I guess no more clomping and stomping all over the place with my lumberjack-ish and bullet-proof boots, stepping on some cute girl’s manicured toes and totally killing my chances of ever hooking up with her before, as I administer my half-ass first aide (aka bug the fuck out, call 311 by mistake, and use my booger napkin as a band-aide) on her tendon dangling toe, we’ll see.  Suckers are out Fall 2011.  Yeah we’ll see.

So Givenchy says they’re hiking sneakers, I say, where the fuck are you hiking?  Hiking at Bergdorf Goodman, or on Broadway, or at any other “not really hiking or nature related at all” location?  Looking at these beauts, and probably after paying what you’re going to pay,  I would stick to those mentioned locations.  Anyway, fuck hiking.  These smooth bad boys look comfortable to chill with and still avoid virgin wizard gamer look.  The key to life is balance, balance of comfort so you don’t have to walk around with blisters from your patent leather tap shoes and not looking like a slob loser.  Balance.  Plus, the quality of the build definitely is apparent.  But don’t kid yourself, be real,  you’re spending a shit-load of dough to seem like you understand good quality, but really bought it to impress that cute chick working at Starbucks with your ability to pay for her 8 year undergrad “pre-law”, then”pre-med”, and now “pre-Starbucks” education.  Whatever works.

Look at these suckers that Alden made for Leffot.  I’m really starting to get into shoes.  Perfect shit.

Pretty fucking shoes.  Easily “rock-able” with many casual and professional pieces, not all, but a not-so-bad amount.   Time has come for us to release our piece of shit and beat down Kenneth Coles into the wilderness and start rocking some real-man shit.  Now we can start hanging out with some grown-up sexy broads and not those sloppy ass super-senior at F.I.T. skeezers.  Suckers cost 445 beans, USD beans.

Fuck yeah, sick ass sneakers at Revive MI .  Such a classy ass mix of brogue and sneaker.  So perfect.  The burgundy and white color combo, so perfect.  Now if your desire is to impress the bobble-head in the apartment across from you, flip flops should suffice, BUT if your desire is not to look like a gamer slob or an analyst square cornball AND impress that cute publist chick with the nice toned up butt who loves wearing spandex pants everywhere and anywhere you see her, then buy these bad boys.  Suckers cost 400 bones, whatever deal with it.

Huge ass fan of the casual look.  Huge.  But, just because things are all casual, it doesn’t mean it’s time to rock you smelly ass ketchup covered Syracuse Orangemen sweatshirt.  Getting laid, smelling and looking like shit, just don’t work nor ever happen. Now, it’s cool and fun to talk about sports all night with the homies, it’s not fun going home alone and playing with your own nuttsack while you were surrounded by roving sexy fawns and their cock-blocking wild bison bodyguards.  Solution – Balmain Fall 2011.  Military high boots, sick.  Jackets, sick.  Jeans, can be replaced.  Scarfs, sick.  Sweater, sick.  I’m sold.

Not a typical Common Projects type of shoe, whatever.  But not typical doesn’t necessarily mean garbage or shit.  Nice color combo, comfortable as fuck, slightly pricey at 380 USD, but overall chill ass sneaker.  Though one thing that must go is that bullshit ass elastic band thing in front,  no questions, must go.  It gives off a hint of “i’m retarded and can’t tie a shoe, so I must use fucking an elastic band so my shoe doesn’t fall off”, yeah elastic band, must go.   Overall, cool shit, very cool shit.
