Hi there! Welcome. I am back with a new video. It’s been a few years since I’ve uploaded. I fell out of filming videos after I started working a full time job. Due to the pandemic, I began working from home and now that we are into a brand new year, I thought I would use this time being at home to start creating videos again as well as updating this blog.
For my first video of 2021, I put together a recap of the sneakers I copped in 2020.
Ever since middle school, I've discovered a whole new culture for sneakers. It was the time when I became more conscious of how I looked and what I wore. I was envious of the kids that had cool kicks. It was always an admiration as I could not afford to buy and collect any. I remember I saved some money to purchase my first pair of cool Nikes, which were a pair of low top light blue and white Nike Dunks. They were my favorite shoes and I wore them almost everyday. I also had hand me down Jordan's, but never my own new pairs. Now that I make my own money, I can finally purchase the sneakers that I loved and wanted.
2020 had so much incredible sneaker releases. I attempted to get as much as I could (because I deserve it and need to cheer myself up due to these COVID times). Although I took more L's than W's, I was able to get 8 pairs of sneakers:
UNC to CHI 1's - Such a dope shoe. I wasn't sure about the colorway at first since the blue and red are so different, but after receiving it in hand, it's so clean.
Flint 13's - One of my holy grails. Loved these since middle school and was so excited and determined to get these when they released in 2020. And success! I was able to cop these. A must have in my collection.
Tie Dye 1's - Love the 1's silhouette, love tie dye and love these colors. Tie dye 1's are my favorites in a shoe so, this is one of my favorites for the year.
Fire Red 4's - A lucky shock drop cop. A pair that is essential to the 4's collection. I remember when these came out when I was in middle school, and so many kids rocked these and yes, I was super jealous lol. Now, I finally have a pair! woot. Better late than never :)
Jubilee 11's - Such a clean pair of shoes. I couldn't go to sleep one night and was searching what shoes to get next and I stumbled upon these on Foot Locker. Luckily, they were still available in my size. At first, I passed on these through SNKRS, but it might have been fate to cop these. I'm really glad I did. I love me some 11's.
Nike Blazer Low '77 - Nike Blazers were my thing in high school. When I figured I needed new low top shoes, I had to get these! A perfect pair to throw on whenever. Easy to put on and comfy too.
Nike Dunk Low Disrupt - More low tops shoes for me to throw on. I thought these were pretty cool. And more dunks are coming out these days so time to up my dunks game.
Fire Red Denim 3's - I felt like I needed more shoes for my 2020 collection. I was feeling ambitious in getting another pair before the year ends and I found these were available in my size on Foot Locker. I had to cop them quick. I haven't had any 3's yet, so these are pretty sick.
Be sure to check out my video for some close up shots of the sneakers.
I hope in 2021, I’ll be able to collect more sneakers! Let’s get these dubs!
Thank you for visiting :)
