On White Jordans and Keeping Them Clean

Filed under: Jordan, Nike — Maciej Matyjas @ 17:21 2010/03/03
Nice banter with the gentleman in these Jordans, he learned the dangers of white shoes at warehouse parties one fate full New Years Eve. [Reaally??] Now he is very touch and go about bringing the white shoes out of the box, unless we are talking about some Vans.

Personally, I have taken the somewhat extraordinary measure of never wearing white shoes on Fridays. It is kinda like the old Catholic tradition of not eating red meat on Fridays (hence all the Fish specials) or that no white shoes after Labor Day thing. Fridays tend to be random and spontaneous as well as really messy in the UK.

Anyways, these are Air Jordan Flight 45s and they are buttery in various color ways.

Spotted these on a tourist in the tube, they remind me of a low Blazer with a Vans Old School toe cap. The reptilian look is gonna be big next year.

Like the Pony and the Jordan XXII footwear, this couple knows what sneakers to wear.

Justin says, “A Future Knick!” about 30 times during the All Star Game and Emma says, “Woo hoo finally famous in the land of No Bobos”

Some Franken-Nikes

Nike likes mashups and so do we; how many sneakers can you spot in these two mixeroos? In no particular order:
  • Air Flight 89 Sole
  • 2k5 Huarache toe
  • reference to the Air Flight Lite in the vent holes
  • heel style from the elusive Air Force V (still looking for a low pair of these)

Girly Jordan V

The fives are a top three Jordan, all time. The grey base makes that girlish pink really pop.

Red AF25s, Red Nets, Red China

At the Knicks\Nets game, or should I say Nets\Knicks game, I managed to sit next to a nice fellow who had traveled from China to cheer for Yi (and Nate Robinson (but we wont go into that)) and spend New Years in New York. It was cool, he had good energy and was knowledgeable about lots of stuff including sneakers.

Gabriel Dishaw’s “Junk Dunks” are sculptures of totemic Nike Airs made out of consumer garbage.

“Junk Dunk (Left)” (Thanks, Gareth!)

What caught my eye was the little dip/squiggle just after the first lace hole.
