The summer of 2008 , Nike along with DJ Clark Kent (God's favorite DJ and Founder of A.T.F Addicted To Fresh) collabarated  and released the 112 Pack. It was a pack desingned together but sold seperatley of 3 classic Nike sneakers. The Air Force 1 low released in 1982, The Nike Air Trainer 1 released in 1987, and The Nike Air Max 1 released in 1987. These shoes were sought after by many sneaker collectors and enthusiasts. The use of a grey 3M reflector, elephant print (made famous by The Nike Air Jordan 3), black and neon yellow color first seen on The Nike Air Max 95. These colors were put together perfectly. Now fast forward summer 2009 and two more sneakers have been added to the 112 collection. The Nike Air Force 25 released in 2007 and the widely popular Nike Hyperdunk released in 2008. They both keep in tune with the same colors from the 2008 pack. The original pack was released in the United States but the new pack is rumored to be a Asia exclusive. This is a definite must have to your current shoe collection. Thank you to theshoegame.com for the images.

Respect.


When someone you love becomes a memory , the memory becomes a treasure.



This being my first post, I see fit to pay my respects to Mr. Michael Joseph Jackson. I must say I am writing this with a heavy heart. My blog is dedicated to the "Modern" man and what is 
revelant to him. Be it in clothing, sports, technology or music this blogs main purpose is to keep you the reader in tune with what is the standard in every day mans life. The highest standard in music was and is and will always be Mr. Jackson! Icon is word seldom used but in his case it fits perfect. Listen, any man that can make grown men and women cry.......need I say more? 

1982......

I was 7 years old and life was great! Young and free without a care in the world and my soundtrack to my life was the Thriller album. Saturday mornings were the best, Frosted Flakes in my bowl, Superfriends on the tv and M.J. on the record player. I can remember me and my mother dancing to that album for hours! That was a very special time in my life that I go to from time to time just to relax and ease my mind. M.J. was a big part of my life and many others at that time. You see for my family and others his music was a release from the everyday hassel.  That being said I just want to thank M.J. for his gift and talent that he shared with the world. You entertained us and gave us your best and all you asked from us was just to listen and to look and understand what was around us and to help make a change in the world for the better. You will be missed Michael.
