These Overkill x New Balance "Berlin Wall" 577 pack kicks are
fresh, but why won't 'heads see kicks like this in the USA? Is it
because 'heads in Germany appreciate sneakers such as these more than
cats in the USA?

These sneakers will be released on December 16, 2009 at Overkill
Berlin. http://bit.ly/4mNUdj

OSD Presents: "Just Blame Chad" The Sneaker World's 1st Official Sketch Comedy Show!

Finally, the sneaker world gets it's own OFFICIAL sketch comedy show thanks to the good folks at OSD. In partnership with 2-time emmy award winning production company A Milien Pictures Group "Just Blame Chad!" came to life. We took you behind the scenes in previous post right here on the OSD Blog, and now after a wild screening party on October 3rd in Brooklyn NYC, the show officially premiered on Wednesday, October 14th @ 11:30 PM EST on OSD TV. You will be amazed at what 1 Snuggie, a piece of twine, some baby powder, a camping tent, 2 fake gold chains, and 2 invisible dog leashes can turn into when a camera is rolling (LOL).

Special shout out to Geoff, Esco, and Damani of Flight Club NY, and to Chip Fu to showing folks who masters the flow! "Young Rappers Need Teachin!"

So just in case you missed the screening party, and the premiere you can now peep the episode RIGHT HERE!

Love it, Hate it either way let us know. Hit us up and let us know how you feel.

WALK GOOD!

Kicks: Nike Air Trainer 1

Whenever a new sneaker is released I go through a couple thought
processes: (1) Do I like the shoes?; (2) What are the technical
features of the shoes?, and (3) Are the shoes worth the retail price?

Well, when I saw the Nike Air Trainer 1s, in the classic grey, black
and green colorway, I said these shoes are "Fresh".

I almost ordered a pair from Eastbay because I knew better than to
search in vain for a pair in my 'hood, in my size 14.

So, on my recent trip to Beaverton, it paid off that I was patient and
I was able to pick-up these bad boys at the employee store.

Having worn them a couple times, I have to say that not only do the
Air Trainer 1s look "Fresh", but they are some of the most comfortable
sneakers, I've bought in a long time, fresh-out-the-box.

The sneakers are lightweight and the placement of the Flywire is just
enoughto let you know that it's there to keep the foot from over-
pronating.

The Free-outsole makes for a great fit and works with your foot,
rather than some sneakers which seem to fight your feet and force them
into submission.

Suffice to say, I'm now hunting for the classic-colorway in a size
14.

As we say on OSD, the hunt continues and, as always, Walk GOOD!
