    Foams and Buckets...what up bros? Just watched your Kobe dedication vid and now this one. Love you guys and you're in my prayers. I've always had a love/hate thing with Kobe (on court, lol) but as soon as I'd heard what happened my heart dropped man. Like I lost family or a close friend. Just like Aaliyah and Nipsey Hussle...it didn't make a damn bit of sense.
    Foamer, you spoke a lot of truth on that dedication vid and can definitely feel how genuinely you guys' feel about Kobe. The fact that you're non-monetizing that vid is EVERYTHING. Nothing but love for you guys man. Be blessed and please stay this real forever #mambaforever...
    Oh! I've loved a few of Kobe entries over the years and definitely bought em. I had a black/graphite pair of the 2005 Hyperdunks. Had them shits forever and played hoops em a lot. Never fell apart.
    I now have a pair of signature 5s purple/black/graphite that were gifted and a pair of 11s (promo sample...light blue/white)
    But...my favorite pair to date that I bought and sold (like u did) was the OG Kobe AD (blue/infrared/yellow)...the ones that we first saw Demar Derozan playing in.
    Others I've recently come to love...Kobe 6s thru 10s...Any variation of colorway

And during everything every now and then would search around online for my size and finally i bought them after now being able to afford them later in life. And the very next day the crash happened, it’s weird somehow shoes are a point of commonality for all of us. Best and prayers and love up for Vino and all who were aboard the plane that day. ♥️

    The year where my love for sneakers started was way back 2011. The sneaker that started it all for me was the Hyperdunk 2011. They were minimal and have a “budget” model feel in them but I’ve always loved it! I used to play in them and now, it is my basis on choosing a perfect performance sneaker. The sneaker that I’ve been hunting for a very long time was the Hyperdunk 2011 Galaxy! I still don’t have them up to this date but those were just to fire for me. Those were my ultimate dream sneakers! 🔥🔥🔥

    Foamie...Let me give you a little background, I bought a pair of Grinches off StockX last year and wore them twice (once in New Orleans and once at home in Philly) and the sole started to separate at the front. I damn near cried cause I paid a stack for them. Took them to a repair shop and got them fixed but I'll never wear them again. Two months later I was like fuck it and bought another pair from Stadium Goods and they seem to be holding up much better. I guess it's just luck and the fact that the shoe is damn near 10 years old. I love em to death and I'm like you...I WEAR MY SHIT!!! I can really appreciate somebody like you who does the same. PEACE

    I’ve been thinking about copping a pair of Air Jordan 29’s off Stock X to hoop in based off your recommendation but I’ve been hesitant.
