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...

SHOPPING ASS'T.

This weekend, I took my friend Miguel around town cuz he wanted me to help him look for some kicks. It's rare for me to get out and explore New York (oddly enough) and it always amazes me how much the city changes in such little amounts of time. New shops, closed shops, new restaurants, bars, hotels...it's overwhelming. So we headed to Classic Kicks where he copped some womens AF1s on sale. Pink Ice bottom with white and brown uppers. Nothing like getting some womens kicks to make your steez super unique. From there we stopped by to Nike's 255 Studio and made some Air Max 1s. I think he went with the '95 colorway but added an elephant print to spice it up. Then we headed over to Stussy where he got some gear as well. The only thing I picked up was a Swiss Army blazer/windbreaker jacket joint. Swiss Army...one of the most slept on brands. Please keep on sleeping people...so it never ever gets played out. Thanks.

Joli helping us out at the design pod. She's a cutie even when she picks her nose....awww.....



Security about to bust my ass and take away my camera for shooting in the studio. See that girl next to him? She was in one my classes I guest lectured for at Parsons School of Design. Strange small world.



And you thought they just do knives.

Swiss Army is such an excellent brand. Just helped a friend find a particular watch he was looking for. I like the quality under the radar brands with no hype or (hottest right now)like swiss army. Quality and the product speaks for itself.When you make a purchase you know you gonna have it for years.
