The Air Max 1 Corduroy 'Baltic Blue' is a nice shoe...it's just not for me. Review and lace swap!
The Air Max 1 Corduroy 'Baltic Blue' released in the United States for $160 on March 17. Despite never loving corduroy sneakers I decided to give this shoe a chance. Objectively, this is a nice shoe with good materials and attempts something different. Subjectively, this shoe isn't for me.

The Air Jordan 12 A Ma Maniere 'White Burgundy' is nice in photos...but even better in person.
The A Ma Maniere Air Jordan 12 'White and Burgundy' is the second shoe from A Ma Maniere's most recent collaboration with Jordan Brand. They dropped on March 2nd for $225 and just like the Black and Burgundy pair, these are even better in hand.

The Air Jordan 23 'Year of the Rabbit' is my FAVORITE SNEAKER of 2023 so far.
The Air Jordan 23 'Year of the Rabbit' was part of Nike and Jordan brand's 2023 Lunar New Year collection, however, it never released in the United States. Luckily I have family across the world and they were able to come through for me.

The Air Jordan 1 Low 'Lucky Green' is a nice colorway...but I didn't need them.
The Air Jordan 1 Low Lucky Green went way under the radar. I didn't see them release on Nike.com or SNKRS but happened to see them release on Finishline on March 8th for $110.

The Air Max 1 'Shima Shima' is a great addition to a classic collection...and they're just sitting.
The Air Max 1 'Shima Shima' released on March 10 for $160 and it adds to the Shima Shima pack that first dropped in 2003. When images of these shoes came out, I really thought they'd quickly sell out but I was wrong.

The Nike Dunk Low 'Valentines Day' is hard to resist. In depth review and on feet!
The Nike Dunk Low 'Valentines Day' is part of Nike's 2023 Valentines collection (yes I know I'm late). I was able to grab these on a restock after taking yet another L on SNKRS.
I'm not a huge fan of Nike Dunks but when a colorway looks this good, I couldn't say no.

Can the Foamposite 'Dream A World Tech Grey' revive the popularity of an icon?
The Nike Air Foamposite One 'Dream A World Tech Grey' released in select retailers on February 24 for $250 and then on the SNKRS app on March 3rd. Foamposites were one of the most hyped shoes in the sneaker world but their popularity has significantly declined in recent years (exactly what true Foamposite fans want).
Will the latest iteration in 2023 spur a revival in popularity for these iconic sneakers?
The 'Air Jordan 12 A Ma Maniere' was supposed to let me down...It didn't.
The Air Jordan 12 A Ma Maniere 'Black Burgundy' is one of two Jordan 12s in their most recent Jordan collaboration.

A shoe that flew UNDER the radar - the Air Jordan 2 'Craft'. In depth review!
The Air Jordan 2 'Craft' released on January 26th for $175 but did you know about it? This shoe had a weird staggered release despite Jordan Brand clearly wanting the Jordan 2 to be more popular.
Check out my in depth review of the colorway, materials, quality, sizing and comfort. And my new 'Sole Score' that gives every shoe I review a final score based on five metrics. On feet footage included!

The Nike Clot Cortez PUSHES the boundaries of sneaker design.
The Nike Clot Cortez ('Clotez') dropped on February 9th for $150 and went largely under the radar. Clot has always infused Asian inspiration into their sneaker collaborations and this time, the Cortez is inspired by martial arts and the concept of yin and yang.
Clot's clearly pushing the envelope and boundaries on what's possible in sneakers by giving us three shoes in one. Watch more for an in depth review, size and comfort, and find out what I love and don't love about this shoe.
The Nike Air Trainer 1 'Valentines Day' deserves MORE RESPECT!
The Air Trainer 1 changed the sneaker industry but it never gets the hype and respect it deserves. Take a look at any Travis Scott x Air Trainer 1 collaboration and you'll see them at or below retail, very unusual for a Travis Scott collab. The Valentines Day Nike Air Trainer 1 dropped on February 7 and is still sitting on Nike.com, it definitely deserves more love!
The ICONIC Air Jordan 13 'Playoffs' makes a long awaited return.
The Air Jordan 13 'Playoff' is another icon made famous by Michael Jordan's performance in the 1998 playoffs. They are set to release on February 18th during NBA All Star Weekend for $210. Luckily I was able to get these during a shock drop on SNKRS on February 4th.

Air Jordan 5 'Aqua' looks more like another colorway. In depth review!
The Air Jordan 5 'Aqua' is a brand new colorway for the Jordan 5 but inspired by the OG Air Jordan 8 'Aqua'. However, they remind me a lot more of the Air Jordan 5 'Hornets' Chris Paul Player Exclusives from when the Hornets were in New Orleans. These released on February 4th for $200, find out what I think about them!
