Air Jordan 1 High - “School Daze”
The affiliation between Air Jordan and Spike Lee opened a new chapter this month by paying tribute to the 1988 collegiate classic, “School Daze“. The film served as the main inspiration behind the two latest inductees to the Air Jordan 1 legacy and arrives well-timed with school season about to start.

The Jordan 1 High Strap takes it’s colorway from the originally movie poster. Apparel pieces that highlight the film’s fraternal and university theme are available as well.
Remember the Step Team scene where Gamma Phi Gamma ripped it?! Well for those aspiring to join “Half-Pint” in his pledge, the Air Jordan 1 High is re-visited and made up of the butteriest of leathers, and sports an o.g. colorway (black/shadow grey), that goes hand-in-hand with the outfits of the brothers G-Phi-G!



**For the female Gamma Rays out there (with good and bad hair) the black/shadow grey Jordan 1 High’s are also available in kids sizes 3.5 to 7.**

4 commentsNike Terminator Premium “Selvage Denim”
Since we clearly killed it with the pics of the Blazer Hi Premium “Selvage Denim” (No link again Kanye!?), we had to give our love for selvage another shot with the release of the “Selvage Denim” version of the Terminator.
This time Evan’s “Selvage Warrior” brother Alex sports his own RRL, in an antique white denim pair. Even without the original samples that sported rivets, these are true blue classy.


you see the stacks??

Air Max 95 - o.g. sort of, either way they’re hard.

No commentsNike Sharalaid “Fresh Air” Remix
With the amount of ballers (literal) that come through here, we figured we’d give you guys something new to sink your teeth into. A combination of Nike’s classic Air Raid and a modern court marvel called the Sharkley, the result of this remix is a “Fresh Air” version of the Sharkalaid.



The heel tab looks like “they model for Kaws”…

1 commentNike Blazer Hi Premium ND “Selvage”
Amongst denim connoisseur’s, selvage is the epitome of strength, quality, and endurance, particularly when it comes to breaking in a pair of jeans over the course of a year from ‘raw’ to ‘distressed’. This type of process is personal and the results vary based on how one wears their jeans. It is especially popular amongst those who study and collect vintage Americana. There is nothing like breaking in a new pair of raw selvage, whether your wearing your A.P.C. New Standards, Pure Blue Japan, 3Sixteen, or in my case RRL. Taking this theme of quality to another level, Nike has dressed it’s classic Blazer silhouette in premium ‘Selvage’ denim. Featuring stitching that resembles clean inseams, and premium leather much like the rear belt patches on various selvage denim, this shoe is right up any denim aficionado’s alley.
Hopefully as I wear these, I can achieve results similar to those on my own selvage denim jeans. Also, look out for the Nike Terminator version, which we will be receiving sometime soon.

Doooo Youuu Knowww Selllvaggggeeeee???

No comments10 Deep Fall: Proud to be a Problem
Straight up - 10 Deep is very problematic, and the Fall line boldly points this out with dominance. These days things are all about fake handshakes, false friendships, and artificial alliance…especially promoted by silly web-based social communities. Everything and everyone are somehow “all good”. I can’t get down like that, and at EB we’re the types that embrace being a catalyst of societal mutation and advancement…and of course shaking things up in an already safety-clingy retail climate. It’s these type of recurring themes that 10 Deep continues to tell, and that we continue to proudly identify with. Proud to be a problem!
Proud Problem Crew Neck - it’s that simple. Beautiful eggplant color - additional patch embroidery not shown.
Bad Seed Crew Neck - the ultimate neck breaking ode to society’s most notorious miscreants.
Tough Luck Buttondown - the top piece of the line, this micro-check gingham woven button down is the look for Fall.
LVP - the Least Value Players repped by the darkhorse king - Underdog!
Seeking - this 10 Deep homerun nod to the sole searchers is back!
Better Luck Next Time - what better way to exemplify the back statement with “Raging Bull” Jake LaMotta on the front getting his face re-arranged.
