Same boot, new guts!
Everyone knows that I am the most loyal wheat Timberland boot wearer this side of the 90s. Doesn’t matter what trends come and go, if Jay Z publicly denounces them or if Kanye dresses them in high fashion making them “trendy” — I have always had a fresh pair(s)(ssss) ready to go.
My favorite boot has received an upgrade in the form of anti-fatigue technology which makes for a more comfortable boot.
Classic and now more comfortable. Win/Win.

Much love to Team Epiphany and Timberland for the love.
W-W-W-W-W-World Premier!!!
It’s always camouflage season and this Nike Air Force Bespoke is confirmation of that! Made from a pair of Woodland pattern BDU shorts and features a black micro perf leather lining, wax laces and an ever so classic gum out sole. You already know how I feel about camo and believe me, I don’t usually covet another man’s shoes… but DAMN.
Designed by the 5 Star General of the ATF Crew. Yeah that guy!
So when my guy Aaron LaCrate isn’t DJing, producing for Jim Jones or running his brand MIlkcrake Athletics, he is designing ill Nike Air Force 1 Bespokes at 21 Mercer in NYC.
The combo of brown canvas and infared is classic and street ready — another banger.
PS– no they are NOT available to the public so stop asking him!!!

Pleasant surprise.
My Nike Air Force One bespoke landed on Complex Magazine’s The Best 25 Bespoke Nike Air Force 1s list with the likes of sneaker royalty Dj Clark Kent, Mayor, Bun B and my brother from the UK, Gary Warnett.
Amazing honor.
PS — Not Gucci inspired.

I was at Agenda in San Diego a couple years back when I met these 2 Detroit boys– Rick and Ro. It started as the normal “dope shop”, “good stuff”, “blah blah blah” and all that non sense courtesy babble you have with people at trade shows. We stayed in touch and it has become a real friendship — those 2 dudes from Detroit are now my brothers.
Rick and I talk everyday about design, family and life. When I talk to Rick I can hear the passion for design and success. He has a drive and will to grow that is contagious. He keeps me on my toes and reminds me why we do this.
I remember picking up those Burn Rubber guys at the airport in Boston to bring them over to New Balance. Rick had every detail of the shoe covered — model, color and material. While I talked shit and distracted everyone, Rick slid in and created one of the best New Balance collaborations in recent history. An amazing shoe from an amazing brand and shop.
To my brothers— the first “one” is special but may your last “one” always be the your best “one”. I’m am looking forward to your next best “one”!
