KICKS/HI NEWSLETTER (1/25).

|x| What’s good, fam! Who do you have for the Superbowl? I am personally calling the G-men in a nail biter. Either way this is going to be a really entertaining game…not as entertaining as if Jay Cutler hadn’t got hurt midseason…da Bears, fam! DA BEARS!

HUF x HAROSHI x DLX COLLECTION – SATURDAY (1/28) RELEASE:

HUF teamed up with DLX distribution (spitfire wheels, real skateboards, etc) and Japanese artist extraordinaire, Haroshi, to produce sculptures of a dog’s bust, fire hydrant, 1000% skateboard wheel & and a fully functioning electric guitar OUT OF OLD SKATEBOARD DECKS! I don’t know if you can wrap your brain around that because I almost couldn’t fathom it myself, AND I SAW THE EXHIBIT IN PERSON! I really wish I caught the ollie contest over the fire hydrant, but being able to appreciate the works first hand was really amazing. Thanks again to Keith, Sweets, Naotake, Scott, Anne and the entire HUF + LA fam for a great event.

To commemorate the event, HUF and DLX has put together a collection of shoes, tees and gear – as you shall see here:

HUF Hufnagel Pro Model in concrete grey perf suede/suede upper. The outsole is a clear cupsole with the interlocking wood pattern HUF “H”s underneath. The interlocking wood pattern HUF “H” is also repeated – printed on the insole. There a drawing of the fire hydrant embroidered on the heel, and a HUF x HAROSHI tag on the tongue. I really like the Hufnagel Pro Model shoe. Its super comfortable and all the kids that I know that have skated them have really liked the shoe as a skate shoe.

HUF x HAROSHI 5-panel cap.

HUF x HAROSHI snapback cap.

HUF x HAROSHI box logo tee.

HUF x HAROSHI x REAL logo tee. Huf is one of the OG team riders so this tee is really awesome to me!

HUF x HAROSHI x ZIP ZINGER logo tee. I wish we got the skateboards, but this shirt will do…

HUF x HAROSHI x SPITFIRE baseball tee. THIS IS MY ISH RIGHT HERE!

HUF x HAROSHI x SPITFIRE pullover hoodie.

Only 15 retailers WORLDWIDE were offered this collection, and KICKS/HI is one of the select few! What an honor!
All pictured HUF x HAROSHI products will be available for purchase in the shop this Saturday (1/28) & via phone order on remaining items beginning, Monday (1/30): 808.941.9191.

NIKE BASKETBALL – LEBRON 9 “COOL GREY”:

Lebron 9 “cool grey” is a great colorway. You almost cannot mess up with a “cool grey” colorway – unless you are wearing all grey clothes because then you just end up looking like a statue….not a good look. But yeah, Lebron 9 still has so much energy around it because of the strong QS releases. This has been a blueprint on how to launch a new, non-retro silhouette without over saturating it…yet. Haha. Nike hasn’t had the best track record in the “keeping colorways to a minimum” department. Lebron also hasn’t had the best track record in the “holding his team down in the 4th quarter” department either, though. JUST SAYIN! This is coming from a Lebron supporter since his entrance to the league…
Available in the shop + phone orders accepted: 808.941.9191

NIKE BASKETBALL – KOBE VII:

The non-Supreme Kobe VIIs don’t come with the extra ankle support insoles. I think people got confused that all the new VIIs would be like the Supremes, but the GR VIIs will be as pictured with no extras. This black/white colorway is fresh to death, though! THANK YOU BASED GOD FOR ABANDONING THE SCALES ON ZE UPPER! No thank you to David Stern for blocking that CP3 trade to the Lakers, and no thank you to the Lakers for trading away Lamar. Those both hurt. AND I’M A DIEHARD BULLS FAN!
Available in the shop + phone orders accepted: 808.941.9191

SB Janoski low.
