These will be released June 2nd for $250. Get your money up sneaker heads. Shout to @DamnnEricka rockin’ dat ItsBizkit Tank.

Posner is not your normal hip-hop artist.

The Air Jordan 12 Low is set to release in two colorways this year. Both the Air Jordan 12 Low Taxi and the Air Jordan 12 Low Black Patent are set to drop and while the former has a release date of April 9th we still dont know when the latter will.
While we wait on a the date to confirm it cant hurt to look at a few new images. The shoes are beautifully crafted and great for the ankle socks and shorts that the summer will bring. The way the Black patent leather and nubuck blend really creates an interesting tonality and sets this pair apart as a whole. With a date still pending you could always roll over to eBay and pay the markup if you want them bad enough.

Damn Joey, I remember that episode, but I’ve been doing it before that, right shoe only, before I leave the store.
