New Pickup: St Alfred x Asics
These kicks are hot! Buttery suede in dark blue and light grey covers the entire upper of the shoe. Three pairs of laces come with these bad boys; cream, dark blue, and white. the Midsole is the same creamy color that the 2nd set of laces resemble. The outsole is a nice gum colored tone. The lining of the shoe is a really nice white high grain soft leather. The insole seems like memory foams just out of pure comfort. Great high quality asics collaboration, They did it again.
Nike Raising Prices again?
I have two ideas about the rising cost of shoes. Many people now a days resell shoes and I think Nike is trying to maximise there profit by increasing their price to about what the resell value is. Another is that everyone has been starting to check out different brands in the shoe game, this is a direct result of Nike's price increase. In the end I think its gonna be a good thing because this allows new companies to target the market and make the game more competitive this will always result in better scenarios for consumers.
New Pick Up: Nike Foamposite Pro PRM LE
These foams are a nasty pickup. They are your regular foamposite pro with a few differences, gum like sole, obviously new print on the foam, and a new price tag. The idea for a gum colored sole was a great idea by Nike, one of the main factors in foams losing value is because they lose their ice and become yellow very quickly. These new gum soles eliminate that problem. The new print on the foams is a army camouflage print hence the name. The print is pretty nice, in my opinion much better than the camo foams that released earlier this year. And lastly the new price tag, it seems like the rising cost of nike shoes will never stop. Every single month we get a new ridiculous price, they gotta stop.
New Pickup: New Balance 574 x Ball and Buck
These shoes are straight fire! They are my favorite shoe in my entire collection so far. The majority of the shoe is dressed in premium quality buttery suede. 3m surrounds the New Balance N on the side of this sneaker. Camo print convers the toe and high midsole. A brite soulful orange covers the back top of the shoe. With the shoe comes a real life .50 caliber bullet box to show the relation of ball and buck and firearms. Another addition is a small gold plaque with which the collaborators have inscribed, "New Balance x Ball and Buck" with your lucky number out of 178. My pair is number 14 and I was very glad to get my hands on this sweet collaboration.
