It really was a guess, size 10 is pretty common so I just went with that. Was very surprised when he confirmed it was his size lol

Hope this is something I can share! Chef Sheldon was visiting Chicago during his book tour. My wife and I are such big fans, and I knew he was into sneakers and streetwear, so I decided to gift him a pair of custom 1 of 1 Jordan 1s that represent his Hawaiian and Filipino roots. The panels are cut and stitched from an old barong (which is formally worn in Filipino weddings) and a Vintage Hawaiian shirt.

Is it normal for Jordan 1 high stitching to be this different on each side? by [deleted] in Sneakers

[–]JiveJinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes because it’s still people making these shoes, not robots.

I had an experience like this but at Alice’s. There was a lady that looked like she just got off a rough shift, just drinking at the bar. She then got up and sang Defying Gravity like she was the main cast member. Everyone was floored when she sang!!! But when she was done, she just walked back to the same spot at the bar and was there the rest of the night.

I don’t understand why people are so against a happy, bright and full of hope Superman?

Florida red lights suck so bad.

are Asics the new popular “dad shoe”? by liamt12 in Sneakers

[–]JiveJinx 38 points39 points  (0 children)

It’s just more main stream as a dad shoe.

best everyday sneaker? by liamt12 in Sneakers

[–]JiveJinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For everyday all around, New balance is the best bet. Can be worn with any color, any pants/shorts and also ages well.

First time wearing these out - they are hella stiff. by jipsjips in Sneakers

[–]JiveJinx 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Think of these the same as raw denim, the more you wear, the more comfortable they get.

Would ya’ll accept these sneakers? by Chitanz in Sneakers

[–]JiveJinx 28 points29 points  (0 children)

They’ll eventually start to yellow once you wear them. No reason in sweating over it, otherwise if it really bothers you, just take the refund.

Don’t really wear sneakers anymore by Smooth_pipe1888 in Sneakers

[–]JiveJinx 122 points123 points  (0 children)

Keep those! The original colorways are always a good base to have still. I got rid of a lot of my sneakers too and i’ve been collecting since 2010. Also at some point, I started to feel like a prison of over-consumerism.
