K.R.E.A.M! My Perosnal Top 10






10. What the DUNK?



Probably every SB heads dream all the classic deadstocks combined into a pair of sneakers... if u got these CONGRATULATIONS!






9. Nike Air Foamposite One




I remember the OG's it was 7th, 8th, grade and little did i know these would be one of the most comfortable, light,original designs, on a basketball shoe(there all sneakers too me) that id ever own. Plus Penny Hardaway was that DUDE!





8. Air Jordan 4 "Mars Blackmon"
Mars Blackmon in paticular. First off Spike is KING of film and AIR JORDAN is KING of basketball the two together was MAGIC! 4's are hardbody comfortable,fly,the great color combo of black,red and white. IT MUST BE THE SHOES!

7. Nike Air Max 1 "Atmos"


These are those sneakers i dream about, this colorway is sooooooooo SICK! Moment of Silence for there sheer beauty. Kanye posted these on his blog like a year ago when it first started, gotta say I was up on these before him :-).




6.Nike Dunk SB "Tiffany"




These are so in my opinion these were the start of the dunk sb craze when u started hearing stories of people going to great lenghts to find SB's or paying outrageous amounts for sneakers. These go for anywhere from 500 to cool "G"... deadstock classics... A dude is the bonafide man if he rolls into a sneaker store rockin these or at a DunkXchange or simply walking down the block wit homies and passes another sneakerhead, what im saying is these are it when it comes to SB's .(let the debate begin)





5. Bape Roadsta (all Colorways)




If ever I do favorite designers Nigo is Top 3, if ever i do favorite labels then Bathing Ape has a good chance at taking top honors. The OG's (though DOPE) were to much of an Air Force 1 bite and they were bootleged like CRAZY!!! I love roadstas they are just FLY. I dont own a pair but i've tried them on froning like i was going to by them (NYC trip BusyWorks is like a whole nutha world) but im a FAN, plain colorways, crazy colorways, suede packs, patent packs WHUTEVA i fucks wit it!






4. Nike Blazer SB "Supreme"



Whenever Nike decides to throw the "Supreme" tag behind a sneaker it never fails. These are the smoothest leather EVER. There also like mids there not as high as regular blazers but certainly not as low as blazer lows. Love the black ones just as much but red is my favorite color the black laces are cool but they also come with red laces. Yes, Yes, Yes, that is a SNAKE skin nike check DOPE, I wish one day sneaker companies would GR all these so i could shit on people for regular store price(then agian the deadstocks i do have would be not so important, I just really want all these!)



3. Nike Air Max 95 Classic



U Already Know!!! These khaki shorts and a Tommy Hilfiger, or Polo, or Nautica jacket NUFF SAID.



2. Air Jordan 11






The sneaker people were literally killing each other over. These are so official let me take you all back for a second, Allen Iverson/Victor Page(Georgetown), Ray Allen(Uconn, He Got Game) 95'-96' title, the Space Jams, the space jam 11's, the Grey/Grey, the Black/Black, I even was feeling the lows that came out a couple years after in like White/Red and White/Columbia Blue. Anybody whos a sneaker head knows these if you dont your simply not a sneaker head. I remember when my old man took me to atleast 5 stores and both malls (Galleria, Northwest Plaza) and i wound up getting them from Martys on Washington( what u know about that) these literally changed my life. I knew i was the shit as apposed to thinking it !!! These are CRACK!













1. Air Jordan 3 Black/Red/Cement



The first time my feet fell in LOVE!!! These are like head on a sunday afternoon. Like Illmatic and a Ooo-Wop. Like the your first good pair of jeans. Like losing your Virginity (yea i said it) these are the end all be all of footwear, whenever somebody tals sneaker I instanly dead the conversation with Jordan 3's . The ones with the nike air on the back. The way that red tag use to hang perfectly on the left sneaker. The grey toungue and black laces. The CEMENT, CEMENT, CEMENT! These are ILL! 87'-88', slam-dunk title,all-star MVP, all defensive team. Tinker Hatfield you truly are a GENIUS!
