I’m not a big shoe guy. Mostly because I have sh*tty luck. I remember I got a pair of sweet blue high tops when I was 10 and thems sh*ts were ganked from my locker at the Y. I don’t know what it is about fly kicks that makes people lose their sh*t but it’s ridiculous. I’ve heard of thug life mugging / murdering people for their Air Jordans, but riots? Customers getting trampled to death over sneakers? Am I missing something? Anyway, we put together a gallery of (what I think are funny/wtf) Air Jordans pics that’ll either aid or abet the frenzy.

Streetwear and Urbanwear brands are hot these days, plain and simple. With hipsters at an all-time high and skateboarding as commercial as ever, the fashion scope is shifting. Shifting to a look, that is well, unique. Big time brands are taking note of these new trends, but hold the phone, dear reader. To find these brands and stores, a trip to the local mall won’t suffice. Unless, of course, you’re in the mood for some Jamba Juice, an Aunt Anne’s preztel, and highschoolers. But if you are on the hunt for “fly threads”, or “dope gear”, or “cool clothes” this list should give you a better idea of some unique brands and styles that are out there. Read more after the jump!
