Vans California 2010 Fall/Winter Era Wingtip

The California Era sees a few more pairs of its popular wingtip model released for the summer. This drop features black, navy and dark grey colorways, with a suede upper, metal eyelets, and a red pinstripe atop a white vulcanized sole. Being that the shoes are not a vault release, they might only be available at select California Vans stockists.

Air Max 95s "Slate" & "Comet"

Continuing along the path of precision, Nike Sportswear plans to release these "Slate" (blue) and "Comet" (red) colorways of the Air Max 95 for the the spring/summer footwear collection. Once again, nice, clean, simple for the warmer months...I must say there have been quality releases this year across the board, as long as you keep your eye open for something nice, it shouldn't be hard to find something to match your style. Remember, simple is key, loud, crazy over the top designs tend to fade out and lose popularity but a "classic" will always be viewed as just that, a classic.

BBC Spring 2010 Footwear Collection

For the most part, I was NEVER a fan of any of the shoes BBC/Ice Cream put out before, they offered no creativity, LOUD colors and little to NO originality in the design...these 2, their deck shoe and chukka, on the other hand, fit the mold of their usually abstract yet classic designs that have become a staple in modern streetwear circles. See for yourself and give me YOUR opinion.

Another shoe for me to fall in love with....







I present to you the Onitsuka Tiger Vickka, another simple design. As I grow older, I can honestly say my style has changed. I like my clothes/shoes simpler, not so many busy designs, purchases are now made out of functionality as opposed to just increasing quantity to show off to my peers. This basic design by Onitsuka, a Japanese sub-brand to the well-known sports brand Asics is addition I'd love to add to my collection. Knowing most "sneakerheads", they dont pay shoes any mind if they're not any of the MAJORS...but in my eyes, you can't call yourself an aficionado, connoisseur or anything of the like if you do not pay attention to it all and create your own unique style. Thats just my two cents.......

EVERYBODY should have a pair of Jack Purcells

commonly a prep-style staple that can be found @ stores such as J. Crew, Banana Republic and the Gap, Jack Purcells were the brain-child of its namesake originally designed for to provide more protection and support on badminton courts. Converse then bought the rights to the shoes in the 70's. This collaboration was done by Ian Ginoza, the owner/creator of prestigious St. Alfred boutique out of Chicago for Converse RED line, which helps in AIDS support all over the world.

I got my Chukkas in a BODEGA

BODEGA, a sneaker boutique from outta Boston, which I've been told actually resembles a cornerstone bodega...in conjunction with the retailer Realtree, created what i deem to be this classic version of the chukka...from the earthtones, to the gold eyelets the attention to detail is simply supreme...
