Throwback Thursday: Who is Johnny Kilroy?

Posted in Kicks, Throwback Thursday with tags , , , , , , , , , on September 15, 2011 by prolifik1

Man, I remember this back in the day as an 8th grader in junior high school. This was when MJ first retired so they made these Nike Johnny Kilroy commercials showing how he would go in disguise just so he can stay within the game.

MJ wasn’t the nicest of people in terms of attitude and what not, but you most definitely have to respect the passion he had for playing basketball. True love for the game!

Here’s a look back at one of the commericals for the Air Jordan IX.

iWant: Nike MAG (Debut Video)

Posted in Fashion, Kicks with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on September 8, 2011 by prolifik1

Here’s the official video introducing the official Nike Mag aka McFly’s.

1500 pairs were made and they’re all going to be auctioned off on eBay starting tonight with all net proceeds going directly to The Michael J. Fox Foundation.

Auction begins 8:30pm Pacific times and will run through September 18, 2011.

Ah, wish I had the funds to just bid whatever on theses so I could own a pair. The prices will be ridiculous once these auctions are over!

Could this be real? Could these finally be coming out?

Nike Mags aka McFly’s.

If true, this will get me out of the shoe game retirement, forreal!

Dope Chicks With Dope Kicks: XIII

Posted in Girls, Kicks with tags , , , , , , , on January 12, 2011 by prolifik1

Yeah, gotta love hipsters these days. I mean back in the day in the 80’s and 90’s it was quite rare to see chicks with any type of J’s.  Yeah, Jordans are played in my opinion since Jordan Brand is making a killing in retros, but the plus side to it all; females have become instant shoeheads (hypebeasts, hipisters, or whatever you want to call them!)

Classic Bulls jacket to accompany the AJ XIII retros… This doesn’t need a NSFW banner… lol

Umm Again? Black Cement Air Jordan III Retro

Posted in Kicks with tags , , , , , , , , , , on December 27, 2010 by prolifik1

Damn, what’s up with Jordan Brand? First they continue to give us modern day crappy signature shoes(See: Kicks Preview: Air Jordan 2011), now they’re going through old classics, re-retro’ing the hell out of them.

Once again, we’re going to be see the classic black/grey Cement III’s  which has been confirmed for the 2011 Holiday season, along with the re-re-re-retro of the Air Jordan XI Concords.

Man, real talk, I love these shoes to death, but Jordan Brand has been bringing us these classics with poor quality. The CDP III’s can’t compare to the retros I still have on ice from 2001. Not to mention the 01’s has the “Nike Air” on the back too.  I have a feeling these would be the same quality as the pair that came out not too long ago, if not, worse.

Oh well. I guess I can probably cop a pair to actually mess around with, like actually balling in them. Or wear them out to death without the worry of getting them scuffed.

Classic toy for the nostalgic Air Jordan fan brought to you by Uncle York.  This would go great with my Jordan III display!

Kicks Preview: Air Jordan 2011

Posted in Kicks with tags , , , , , , , , on December 13, 2010 by prolifik1

It’s that time again! Jordan Brand brings a new signature Jordan shoe for 2011. I certainly have mixed thoughts.  I wasn’t quite fond of the 2010’s.  I believe they should preserve the legacy and have stopped at the XX3’s.

Retros is where it’s at Nike/Jordan Brand!  I feel they should just concentrate on that.   This looks more of a Team Jordan shoe version of the XI’s.  Anyone tend to agree?

Cool to see one of my favorite shop/brands collab with one of my favorite theme parks/company.  Good to see Disney share their property licenses with some nicer brands such as UNDFTD and the Hundreds.

Now can we have some with Mickey on it?
