    The thing that stands out to me with the Clark x Adidas collab is that its two shoe manufacturers coming together and not just a collab with another fashion brand. That is something pretty rare imo, imagine if Nike would collab with Timberland and put the Timb sole on an AJ1.

    • @frankchan5547
      @frankchan5547 Год назад

      But adidas is sports and sneakers, Clarks is casual and dress shoes, so maybe not do usual. Clarks is a very conservative brand too

      @@frankchan5547 Adidas started as a Shoe company and later added apparel. Thats why i dont see a collab between nike and Louis Vuitton or Adidas and Gucci as a collaboration between two shoe companies, even tho gucci and LV produce shoes.

    Welty’s hot take on big bubble air max 95s is spot on. You guys are asleep - JLP for the amount you rock 95s you should be completely aware that that bubble has been disintegrating since the switch in like 2004 - it’s really bad - look at where the air bag used to sit - look at where it sits now. It’s disappearing like marty mcfly.
