Recent Pick-ups...



Like I stated earlier...in a year full of Nike Airs with nasty colorways, ugly faces on the side, stupid packs, boring regional releases.........must I go on!!! 2007 was the worst year of Nike Airs in a long time. Nike simply bombarded us with an endless supply of crappy airs ....that set the shoe back about 3 decades!!! Still there were a few...key word few...gems. Probably the best Nike air released was designed by a cat that knows something about the shoe, Bobbito Garcia. Not only did he design a couple of nice lows...but he was also the man behind the resurrection of the hi-top air. To make a long story short...the Nike air hi-top Bobbitos (red & blue) were just refreshing. Nike Air of the year...hands down. Nice basic colorway....gum sole...patent check!!! Piff!!! An old school shoe with old school appeal...done right in this era! Who needs a 17 colorways Sir Charles Barkley pack that consist of 16 bullshit airs!!! Nike learn from this...PLEASE!!!
Also...take note ladies & gentlemen. Hi-top airs should be worn unstrapped...ankles unchoked. Hang those straps to the rear & rock those Bobbitos right, ya'heard me!!!!
