Welcome back to the Podcast

Description:
We’re back with a loaded episode covering everything from premium sneaker drops to outrageous designs and budget-friendly finds. Whether you're a die-hard collector or just getting into the game, this episode is stacked with insights, hot takes, and must-know info from the sneaker world.

👟 Here’s what’s inside:

00:00 – Intro
We kick things off with a laid-back intro, catching up on sneaker culture, what’s been going on behind the scenes, and setting the stage for a packed show.

49:08 – Sneaker Showcase
Our panel spotlights some of the week’s most talked-about sneakers. We break down what’s worth the hype, what’s overrated, and what you might’ve missed while scrolling.

56:49 – Nigel Sylvester Jordan 1
A deep dive into Nigel Sylvester’s Jordan 1 collab — the wear-and-tear aesthetic, storytelling, and how it flipped expectations when it first dropped. We also revisit how it’s aged in the resale market and cultural relevance.

1:03:35 – Levi’s x Jordan Release
Denim meets legacy. We examine how Levi’s and Jordan Brand teamed up to create a textured, raw take on a streetwear staple. Is this collab timeless or a miss? We break it down.

1:20:06 – Kaws Jordan Sneaker
Kaws is back — or is he? We unpack the rumors, official releases, and the art-meets-function design of the latest Kaws x Jordan sneaker. How does it compare to past collabs? And is the hype justified?

1:28:55 – MSCHF "King Solomon"
The most controversial drop of the week. MSCHF’s “King Solomon” artifact blends biblical references with absurd design. Is it genius, disrespectful, or just clever marketing? We go in.

1:39:35 – Discount Topics
Let’s talk deals. With the market cooling, we spotlight where you can find steals, how to shop smarter, and why even some grails are going for way less than retail.

1:46:00 – Outro
Final thoughts, listener shoutouts, and a sneak peek at what’s coming in the next episode.

Welcome to the Podcast

We kick off today's episode with the drama surrounding the Shoe Surgeon. Things heat up as 2JayKicks accuses him of fraud and shady business practices—allegations that may be linked to the current chaos at Urban Necessities.

Next, we dive into the Shoe Surgeon’s legal settlement with Nike. Dominic is now required to pay an undisclosed fee and adhere to specific conditions, including using only authentic Nike sneakers and halting mass production of Nike-based customs.

Then it’s on to Fat Joe and the $20 million lawsuit that’s rocking his UP NYC sneaker business. We unpack the implications and what it could mean for the brand.

We also take a look at A Ma Maniére's upcoming drops—two new sneakers from the "Every Summer Tells a Story" collection: a Nike Air Max 95 and an Air Force 1. This is just the beginning of what looks like a major collaboration.

In investment news, Dwyane Wade and D’Angelo Russell are throwing their support behind Kicks Crew, not just as investors but as brand ambassadors. Wade brings his Way of Wade brand, while Russell adds his creative edge. Big moves ahead for this global sneaker marketplace.

In our final Quick Strike segment, we talk about Nike’s decision to unlock the Kobe Vault. We share our thoughts on how Nike should handle this legendary line going forward.

And as always, we wrap up with Sneaker Court of Public Opinion and some Discount Topics you won’t want to miss.

Welcome to the Podcast

Back at it this week and it seems like so are Jordan Brand as they tap into the high end fashion trends by introducing a triple deck'er thick sole Mule. Coming with glossy black leather, this seems like Jordan Brand actually want to step into the high end fashion industry.

Rumors have emerged that Travis might have a new Travis Scott High in 2026. The irony being that a sample mock up of a reverse mocha was leaked last week. We discuss what we would like to see.

Seems like Edison Chan is changing and developing original silhouettes. This seems to be a new take to Adidas over the last recent years and it seems to be that Edison wants to make his mark within the brand.

Sean Double U by Sean Wotherspoon with Zellerfeld and the RCVRY Slide by Joe Freshgood's company Every Now and then with New Balance is in big question this week. Are they inspirations of silhouettes to bring competition or is it a Big Bite on whats already out there. We talk about it.

Our final quick strike this week is all about the Zion Williamson Jordan 1 Stash Naruto sample that almost released. Should this come out and why have they surfaced now. Well we take a deep dive and investigate further.

We finish the podcast with Sneaker Court of Public Opinion and some Discount Topics.
