Shoe Laces / Laceswap Recommendations Missed out on the Yeezy Zebras? If like me, luck wasn't with you during the raffles, you could probably ease your heartache with the EQT Adv Support Zebras. This has got to be the best discovery I have made this year so far. While I have bought a few EQTs, none has come close in terms of comfort and fit. No luck yet with the Boost version of the EQT (93/17) but the EQT Adv Support is my favorite pair of kicks so far. A plus would be the eye-catching colorways that have hit the...

Recommended lace length for EQT ADV Support PK 91/16 So I just got myself a pair of EQT ADV Support 91/16 Zebra and I am surprised at just how comfortable this pair of shoes is. The fitting is tight, equally tight as the Ultra Boost but overall, this feels more comfortable than the Ultra Boost. Definitely going to be copping more of this silhouette. I also noticed that there is a number of searches on Google that leads to my website on what is the recommended lace length on the EQT. So the stock lace length on the EQT is...

ADIDAS Ultra Boost Customisation with MIADIDAS coming soon It has been a long time coming but it finally seems like ADIDAS will allow us to customise our own pair of Ultra Boost. From the teaser pictures served to us, the amount of customisation available might not be that much. ADIDAS has been able to keep up our interest in the Ultra Boost silhouette by continually introducing tens (even hundreds?) of colorways in the past 1-2 years. From the pictures, you can customise the heel cage based on 3 colors, black, white and navy blue. I am not sure if the...

Shoe Laces / Laceswap Recommendations Another Ultra Boost black colorway will be released this coming May, this time with Bronze Boosts. Who saw this coming? We have seen recently that ADIDAS is experimenting with colored Boosts and there will definitely be more to come in 2017. I won't be surprised to see a Gold Boost soon, considering we already have the Silver Pack. For the shoelaces, sadly I don't have any Bronze tipped laces and as such, I recommend to stick to the stock laces, or if it gets dirty, we also have an all black replacement shoe laces for...

Shoe Laces / Laceswap Recommendations Though ADIDAS was the biggest brand of 2016 and is poised to be the leading brand again in 2017, one might wonder if they are finally running out of ideas for the NMD? The latest NMD R2 Hong Kong Pack, though in a color I truly love (Black and White) is one of the ugliest I  have seen so far. The shape just looks truly off. We see reflective touches on the stripes and laces. One thing to take note of is the diagonal stripes on the back of the midsoles. Good change you feel?...

Shoe Laces / Laceswap Recommendations Aligning yourself with a side on any contentious or politically charged topics such as LGBTQ is probably going to be a bad move but ADIDAS definitely does not give a F**K. By releasing a "Pride" colorway, they are definitely sending a message out there that they are in full support of the Pride movement. The "Pride" colorway sees a Black and White Ultra Boost 3.0 silhouette, with the symbolic "Pride" multicolor paint detailing on the white heel cage and finished off with a white Boost midsole. It is not as loud as "Kolor" but a...

ENAMEL / LAPEL SNEAKER PINS : YEEZY BOOST 350 MOONROCK GREY We admit, all the Yeezy Boost V1 colours are so versatile that we cannot decide if we should go for black, white or the moonrock grey. But since we are all sneaker heads here, it simply cannot hurt to have more than one. The Yeezy Boost 350 Moonrock Grey could be one of the universal style and look ever.  We don't mean that the other colours aren't as good, but when you couple the sneaker with different outfits, it gives off a different type of vibe. Black on black versus black...

ENAMEL / LAPEL SNEAKER PINS : YEEZY BOOST 750 BLACK It has been awhile since anyone has mentioned Yeezy Boost 750 Black. Not sure how many of you out there are still loving this pair of sneakers but we sure fell in love with it at that point in time. Since it's a Thursday today, let's have a #throwbackthursday post.  Debuting back in 2015, it was the very first sneaker released by Adidas, designed by Kanye West. It features a full suede upper, dynamic mid-foot strap, full zipper till the back heel, perforated vamp and best of them all, a Boost...

Shoe Laces / Laceswap Recommendations  ADIDAS just released an all new NMD Triple Black and most of us didn't know about it. Released to almost little or no fan-fare, nonetheless these are fire and already available on the resell market. If you look at patterns on the upper, it almost looks like a velvety corduroy material. These also comes with a colored black Boost, which should attract a number of interested buyers. Black Boost always sells. One interesting thing to note is the laces. Past NMDs have always gone for flat lace but in the picture, it looks like they...

ENAMEL / LAPEL SNEAKER PINS : PLAY ALL STAR 70 LOW SNEAKER WHITE Minimal and chic, that is how we would describe the COMME des GARÇONS PLAY x Converse Chuck Taylor All Star '70 sneaker. While many of us are still going gaga over the latest hype of the OFFICE x Converse Holiday Nude collection, let's take some time to give the PLAY sneaker some love too.  Whenever we think about white sneakers, it always bring us back to the days of school - white shoes and everything smart. But we are glad that the iconic peekaboo heart makes it stand out and yet...

Shoe Laces / Laceswap Recommendations While doing some research on this pair to get a background of its design, the comments section rather than the article itself gleaned more information. A majority of the comments seems to think that this is pair of shit. Don't confuse this with the pair of "Japan Boost" that was released in Feb 2016, that pair had the Jap letterings on the front brick and had a blacked out Boost midsole. The shoe laces though, needs a change. Slickieslaces have recently introduced a brand new set of custom laces that will fit this pair of...

ENAMEL / LAPEL SNEAKER PINS : PLAY ALL STAR 70 HIGH SNEAKER BLACK Fans of luxury kicks, let's rejoice and embrace another collaboration between COMME des GARÇONS PLAY and Converse. If you have yet to hear of the latest news, word is that both brands are continuing their relationship with another premium rework of the Chuck Taylor All Star '70 sneaker. However, this time round, the sneaker boast a polka dot design.  Polka dots can be a love-hate relationship sometimes. But if you are still a fanatic, it might be tough to cop your hands on a pair of these. The iconic...
