I think everyone had a "Darrin Hudson" in their lives. Darrin Hudson was in my high school, back in Marlboro, NJ. You know, that person that you had to one-up all the time. Didn't matter what it was: Gear, hair, grades, sports, whatever...it was ON. Well for Darrin and I...it was kicks. Plain and simple. Oddly enough, in a school with over 1000 kids, me and him were the only 2 really into sneakers back then. This is my blog dedicated to Darrin. This is to tell Darrin that I'm still out there, and if he wants to battle, here it is son!! Bring it!! I've since lost touch with Darrin, but thanks to him, you all get to check out the kicks I have amassed over the years. So it is here, that I will archive every pair of shoes I own. It’ll include detailed photos, a grading system, a little tidbit behind each one and every single one will be available for purchase. (Simply POST A COMMENT with your offer). Some other little goodies sprinkled throughout also. Even if I updated a different shoe every week, it would take me about 3 years to complete this project. So sit back and enjoy! The project begins January 1st, 2006...

Last week, Reed Space hosted a special preview of the Staple Fall/Winter 2008 Collection. This is stuff coming out in September-November 2008, so it's a very early advance showing of what we have coming out. Hence this event was open to close friends and fam. It was a great success and people seemed to really like the new stuff. It was especially fun for me. Every person I greeted was dope in their own right and it dawned on me at some point in the middle of the night that this was a pretty sick gathering of heads. Thanks to everyone involved that made the night possible. I'm looking forward to doing this again in the future.
先週、Reed SpaceでStaple2008年秋冬コレクションの特別プレビュー会を開きました。これらは2008年9月から11月に出る商品でかなり先立ったプレビューだったので友人や家族のみが招待されました。イベントは大成功でみんな新しい商品をとても気に入ってくれました。僕にとっては特別楽しかったです。挨拶した一人ひとりがそれぞれ魅力のある方ばかりで、途中でこれはかなりすごい集まりだということに気づきました。このイベントを成功に導いてくれた人たちみんなに感謝です。またこのような事をやっていきたいです。

That's quite the set of friends I must say...

Btw, Ana is a cutie. It's good to know my contact for the Staple Committee is attractive. Lol.
