Jordan x Mars Blackmon

These are really the shoes that started it all for a lot of cats out there. The classic Air Jordan Nike. These shoes came out in 1989 and were priced at $110. I needed a Nintendo more than I needed these shoes at the time, but the Spike Lee/Mars Blackmon commercials definitely had me convinced I would have been the coolest kid at my school and the best basketball player if I had a pair of Jordan Fours.





These shoes are incredibly difficult to find in the classic Chicago Bulls colors, but there are many different varieties and editions available as Nike allows designers to get ahold of them and put their own twist on a legendary set of shoes.

Spud Webb Dunk Contest 1986

It was 1986. I was 8 years old. And this is when I knew that anything was possible.

When the chips are down, and the world has got you by the throat, just watch this one minute and twenty nine second video and realize that if you believe, you can achieve...

(Don't sleep on the cameo by Jordan. He can't believe it either.)

Reebok Court Victory Pump Michael Chang...

Reebok is celebrating the 20th anniversary of their greatest sneaker of all-time, the Reebok Pump. One of my favorite styles of these shoes was the Michael Chang "Tennis Ball" pump. The pump on the tongue of the sneaker was made of the same material as a fuzzy, green tennis ball. The color scheme was disgusting.





Would I wear these today? Probably not. But if I was creating a list of dream shoes to own, this would without a doubt be in my top ten.



Who is Michael Chang? Not really sure. I think he had a hot start to his career, but fizzled out in the end. But the Changer will always be remembered for being at the right place, at the right time, with the right management and being on board with the correct shoe...

The Hundreds clothing company....

The Hundreds is a clothing company coming out of California. Their logos and graphics have always caught my eye. They have these incredible old school style script-cursive hats that remind me of the good old days.

Yes. That is a Lakers mesh snapback hat.





They also have this cute little bomb logo that I really like. It's easy on the eyes. It reminds me of some old school Nintendo, Super Mario Brothers 3 to be exact. The bomb seems like a distant cousin to the bullet from those games.

Check out this New Era hat from these guys.






This t-shirt design is based off the Heaven's Gate cult back in the 90s. This cult all killed themselves so they could catch a spaceship flying past Earth. Cults are cool. This logo is cool. The t-shirt is cool. And peep out the tiny bomb on the back. This is part of their Winter collection, so if you get this shirt, you will be cool. Pick up a shirt here. You're welcome. More posts to come from this clothing company.
