Houston Sports Rapp

I’m not sure I could ever drive myself to actually wear a pair of Supra Skytops, but nonetheless they have some sort of market value apparently.  If I were to rock any Supras, I’d go with the new “Thunder”, not coincidentally designed by Jim Greco (formerly on VANS).  Here are your Skytops, and Vaders, a Suprano…along with a nice lil Supra x Deathwish  “Thunder” colabo  for this fine Holiday season…..

Reach for the SKY!!

The Thunder

anyone who knows anything about anything knows that Supreme has been puttin it down with Vans for quite sometime now, and together they have created many works of shear beauty.  Anyone that knows anything about me knows I lay it down for Vans…soooooo….did you really think I wouldn’t get this up?  Behold, your Fall/Winter Supreme/Vans collabo.   Although these are really dope, I’m really kinda tired of the checker and houndstooth thing, and don’t the reds and yellows remind you too much of Summer?  These def don’t scream “Winter” to me, but as with anything Supreme puts their name on, these will go fast and they’re probably already sold out.  Ebayers, get your shop on.  I’m just upset that there was no Sk8 Hi in this pack, but I’ll get over it I suppose, if I can score this buttery yellow Sk8 Lo, or do I really want the reds?????

while we here in Houston celebrate the coming of our two months of cool weather, the rest of the country actually celebrates this thing called “seasons”….that’s right….they actually have four separate temperaments per year….I know…crazy right?  Anyhow, I’m going to attempt to bring you some of the better lines and releases in the skateboarding shoe industry in the upcoming weeks….seeing as how Fall and Winter/Holiday releases and colorways are notoriously effing awesome. First up, we have Adidas…..

Since we were cut short by the Oklahoma ass whoopin at the hands of the fighting mormons, the show was unfortunately not all that great, but we did have this epic interview with Ben Baller brought to us by Kadoma of The H-town Sneaker Summit. If you know anything about the sneaker game, you know this guy. 1/3 of the infamous “Air Mack” sneaker collector crew…which includes DJ Homicide, the late DJ AM, and himself. Originally a DJ, he hustled his way through the record industry ranks, and on into the jewelry business, building business bridges the whole way. He joined us for a few minutes from Miami to talk about his good friend, the late DJ AM (Adam Goldstein).
