Met some cool dudes from San Diego last night through @wendellvans at Imperial Ice Bar and was given this hat. I'm more of a fitted guy but I love the attention to detail on this snapback (and all of their hats). Big shouts to Jeff, Omar and to Premier Fits! Visit the official site HERE for your cut & sew headwear needs. They also accept orders for custom hats!

Not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6, not 7... I don't remember how many times Lebron James aka King James has appeared on the cover of Slam but this issue is worth picking up even if you're not a Miami Heat fan. Just look at the local content line-up! Plus my half page ad is in there somewhere. Use a magnifying glass and let me know who you see. :)

My Simi Valley connect Justine aka Superbrat arrived yesterday and will be in town for 9 days. Last time I saw her was in 2009 so I was stoked to kick it with her! Maybe I'll finally get to link up with her "sister" KC? Or not. Even if I'm this sexy.

DON'T BE FOOLED

Has this what it has come to? A FAKE niketalk group with a FAKE niketalk logo? Whoever is behind this needs to stop. You have no right to represent the group at any event, especially one that's CLEARLY for profit. Even if you ask permission from the NT staff (which includes me), we will never approve of this because the ORIGINAL site donates its proceeds to charity and doesn't pocket a single penny. (full list of donations HERE)

I get it. You have a facebook account (who doesn't?) and one day decided to start a secret group using the NT name. Over time you amassed thousand of likes/followers. You know what? That still doesn't give you the right to use NT (even if you are a registered member). I have shoes of different brands and promote a few stores on this site but you don't see me acting like I own these brands/stores, do you? Having 8,632 members doesn't make your group legitimate. It only means that you fooled that many people into thinking that what you represent is the real NT when it is NOT. What you're doing is worse than wearing fake sneakers. It is not only unacceptable but also fraudulent and illegal.

In addition, SNEAK PEEK is a store that will be opening soon at Shangri-La Plaza Mall (been in the works since last year). It is owned by a big company run by very powerful and influential people. If you want to avoid any legal issues, I suggest you change the name of your event with the quickness. (and please remove the hideous fake NT logo from your poster)

Don't take this entry the wrong way. I am for the growth of the local sneaker scene but please do it the right way. Not this.

Oh, and niketalk can file a cease and desist order. It's something we'd rather avoid but will do just to protect the NT name.

INFLUENCE THIS

Crazy how 3 people stood in line for the Flower Power release even before the flyer was posted online Saturday night. By the time I left Ronac at 1:30 am, there were already around 30 heads ready to spend the night at The Deck just to get a chance to cop a pair of "Floral" Nike Zoom Stefan Janoski.

Now I am no stranger to crazy we Legendary drops as I have been covering such events for the store ever since Nike SB was officially launched locally 4 years ago BUT I didn't expect to see this. More than a hundred people in line before 2pm (around 300 throughout the day) on a Sunday with temperatures soaring into high 30's. (Celsius, brah)

Record breaking and truly legendary. That's all because of awesome guys (and gals) like you, the BEST customers EVER.

Another dope Air Jordan retro + colorway with the OG treatment drops tomorrow at Titan. Classic green and gold colorway (paying homage to MJ dropping 63 points against Larry Bird and the Celtics in 1986) plus the Nike Air label on the tongue with no Jumpman on the back. Worth copping? Yes? Definitely a yes! Even if you're not a Celtic fan. :)
