To Darrin Hudson: AF1/HK.

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...

AF1/HK.

I decided at the last min to hop over to HK to celebrate more AF1 madness. Thanks to EDC and Florence/Nike for hooking everything up on the quickness. The HK event was a smaller affair than NY or Beijing. Bobbito and DJ Tommy played for a couple of hours so that was definitely cool. They also flew in some B-boys from Japan to perform. It was interesting to see each region's take on the AF1 XXV celebration. I'm glad to be home again...even if its only for 1 week.
