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...

EXHALE / RECAP.

It's always nice to sit back, and reflect on what's been going on in the past few weeks/months. It's important to pat yourself on the back every once in a while...

CUT & PASTE:

A really well made video...peep it.

"A little more than a year ago, Cool Hunting sponsored Cut & Paste, the first design competition to square designers against each other in a live tournament-style battle. From the initial sold-out event in NYC, Cut & Paste has grown into a nationwide tour with stops in four cities featuring local designers and judges in each spot. For episode 55, CH joined the party that kicked-off their national series at a Brooklyn warehouse-turned-club to document eight of the best young New York designers duking it out on stage. The video captures the three high-energy rounds, a lively 1200-person audience and an unexpected turn. You'll have to watch to find out which of CH's crew stepped in last-minute to replace a judge who was sick."

Working on really cool projects is definitely a ton of fun and very rewarding. But the one downfall is that you sign these NDA's which prevent you from speaking about them. Its the hardest thing to do...trying to keep quiet on the dope shit. Well, 2 things Staple has been working hard on all summer has dropped recently and it's nice to be finally be able to exhale on these and share them with the world. Enjoy.

I can hardly see anything fantastic coming out of 15 min rounds ... all details are pretty much spared.
