Nike Royal
Nice look from Nike looks to be a step into the realm of upscale sneakers. Keep ya eyes open for these. Good look for all you shoe connoisseurs out there
lance mountain blazer
A nice collab between skateboarder Lance Mountain and Nike SB. I dig the orange colorway especially for the autumn season. Love the swede and the white midsole, it really makes the shoe pop. Look for these in November.

Ruby Hornet - Swagger Like Chi
FR: RubyHornet
"Swagger Like Us" hit the internet a few weeks ago and has become a monster smash. Kanye West, Jay-Z, Lil' Wanye, and T.I. all delivered on the biggest posse cut in years, and the infectious beat has been tackled by emcees nationwide. Shortly after the track's release, I was able to get my hands on an instrumental, which I emailed to Mikkey Halsted, jokingly asking him to shout me out if he decided to go in on the beat. A few days later Really Doe came through the RH office and told us about his experience with the beat, and a futile attempt to land it for his American 2 Fresh debut. We pitched him the idea of jumping on the track with Mikkey and he was down. More importantly, the wheels were in motion. We quickly hit up Naledge, who was in town gearing up for Kidz In The Hall's tour with Murs, he was in as well and "Swagger Like Chi" finally had some legs. We enlisted GLC for the final slot, called Michael Kolar at SoundScape Studios and booked a recording session...
We weren't sure who was going to show up last week Wednesday. Our goal was not only to record a remix showcasing a wide range of Chicago emcees, but to actually get everyone together to record the track, something that has been talked about but not yet done. We knew Naledge would be there, as he can easily be found at SoundScape anytime he is in the Chi. Really Doe gave us a confirmation, and Mikkey Halsted provided his guarantee as well. In addition, Mikkey was bringing two new guests who heard about the idea and had to get down on the track, MarVo and Bump J. We welcomed both emcees, and by 8 PM on the first Wednesday in October all artists mentioned aboved were in the same room writing rhymes, sharing stories, having some drinks and making music. Chicago producers SC and Boogz both swung through the studio as well after learning about what was going on and feeling like they had to be there to see it.
