New York City Report Pt. 1

New York, New York, the big city of dreams, also the busiest city in the United States. Anyways enough about the city, lets talk about the shops! So I went into the city around noonish today, and I hit up R3con, Blades, Nort, Cliente, Bape, DQM, Transit, and a bunch of other stores. While at DQM I met two guys named Toru and Juls, he was a really cool guy and knew a lot about HYPEBEAST which I found very interesting! For dinner, I went to a place called Acme, they have the best burgers. If you plan on visiting New York, I suggest you visit all the stores I went to and more, and definitly check out Acme, their food and service is great!

Blades, which is located on Broadway and Bleeker, is a skateshop with cool staff. They have the latest products from Xlarge to Boxfresh. They also carry Nike SB. Big ups to Anthony!

DQM, a very interesting looking store. First time you go in, you’ll think it’s a butcher shop. Dave really knows what he’s doing. His new DQM shirts are set to come out soon! Check it out, its definitly a shop you need to visit!

Transit, a very universal store. On the top of this store they have LRG, and a bunch of other clothing brands. If you go downstairs they have a shoe section. It ranges from Nike, to Timberland. They had a really good sale too!

Acme’s food was really good for a reasonable price. Also they have the hottest hot sauce I’ve ever tasted. Just Check out Eff Fames face after he puts down a gulp!

And last but not least, our friend Toro. Not only did he know about HYPEBEAST, he knew who I was too! These guys were really big HYPEBEAST fans! We also had a little skate session which was also fun.

Defining Moments Pack Pictures!!

Defining Moments Pack Pictures!!

Pictures of the Defining Moments Pack have surfaced on In Style Shoes Forums. The Pack includes Air Jordan VI and Air Jordan XI in slightly altered colorways. Why have these shoes were chosen as defining moments kicks? Well Michael Jordan wore the Air Jordan VI when he won his first NBA championship (againts the lakers). And for the other shoe, he won his first NBA title after his return to NBA wearing the AJ XI (the fact, that elevens are the most popular Air Jordan of all time does help a little as well). The addition of gold color is to commemorate the championship staus of these shoes. These are rumored to drop around christmas season and retail for $295. This will be limited to “urban accounts” and will only be available in the US. Hey JB remember I’m size US 10.5. :) Click on thumbnails to see full images!! Discuss this topic in our Forum.
