To Darrin Hudson: JEANIUS.

About Me

Name: jeffstaple

Location: New York, New York, United States

I think everyone had a "Darrin Hudson" in their lives. Darrin Hudson was in my high school, back in Marlboro, NJ. You know, that person that you had to one-up all the time. Didn't matter what it was: Gear, hair, grades, sports, whatever...it was ON. Well for Darrin and I...it was kicks. Plain and simple. Oddly enough, in a school with over 1000 kids, me and him were the only 2 really into sneakers back then. This is my blog dedicated to Darrin. This is to tell Darrin that I'm still out there, and if he wants to battle, here it is son!! Bring it!! I've since lost touch with Darrin, but thanks to him, you all get to check out the kicks I have amassed over the years. So it is here, that I will archive every pair of shoes I own. It’ll include detailed photos, a grading system, a little tidbit behind each one and every single one will be available for purchase. (Simply POST A COMMENT with your offer). Some other little goodies sprinkled throughout also. Even if I updated a different shoe every week, it would take me about 3 years to complete this project. So sit back and enjoy! The project begins January 1st, 2006...

JEANIUS.

Plans tonight called for dinner with Mike from Levi's Japan and a visit to the office to check out what goodies they were working on. They really have some amazing things being created out of there. Pretty much wipes Levi's US all over the floor. Keep an out for Levi's FLU. It's a new series focused on the idea of sports and denim. The concept that young people should be able to play sports anytime, anywhere. Even in their jeans. This pair he gave me which was endorsed with the futbol star, Nakata; features stretch denim, major articulation in the side seam, pocket flap and D-Rings for keeping your shit safe, and silicone gel appliques to keep traction of the ball (but for me, it works so my Blackberry doesn't slide off). Definitely THE most comfortable pair of jeans I have ever owned, hands down. A Tab Device exclusive.
