 Today, we're going to be going over five things that I love and hate about her not being a sneakerhead. And we're going to go over five things that I love and hate about him being a sneakerhead. Alright, I'm going to let you go first. Go ahead. Uh-oh. Okay, we're starting with the bad. She got the- You're going to start with the bad? Okay. Alright, let's go. The way that you take 40 million years in the shoe stores, and I have to sit there and act like I'm interested, even though I want to leave five minutes in. Okay, to my defense, I'm always looking for something for you too. True, true, but you know. It's like a part of my job, you know? I got to go in, I got to inspect the space, I got to talk to the manager, I got to do the networking, get everything done. You just still don't like it. No. Like when we're not filming. Yeah, because I mean, even the Seattle trip we took recently, I'm not kidding. When I say this, we went to like 10 different sneaker stores within a 48-hour period. And I just, I mean, at that point, like I can't- I feel you. You know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah. Okay, I feel that. So like when we're filming, it's cool, but like we're just out, and I'm in a new city, or in a city I haven't been into. I'm just like boom, boom, boom, hit the stars. I don't have anything to do for filming, I'm usually the one behind the camera. Right, right, okay, okay. I got you, I got you, all right. Well, that's, I think that's acceptable. Hopefully I can speed up my process. I got my notes too. So we're starting with bad. First thing that I hate or we call, this is, we got this inspiration from the ick challenge from TikTok. So the first thing that I hate or my ick was no longer is because I made sure we got rid of them. The black Harachis that you used to have. I had them in the house for maybe a month and he threw them away without even asking me. Without even asking me, they were like my favorite go-to gym shoes and I like- And then what happened? Like to go with everything? What happened though? I said, I'm throwing them away. Then he got me on Deprestos. I hooked up with some Prestos. I got you multiple colors. I did some for you. I got you right. And you was wearing those every single day. You still rock them. You got hella colors. So not only did I throw them away, I made sure I backed it up and I hooked you up. I'd let you try out Ultra Boost, all the other models as well. True, true. You put me onto a lot of shoes. You know what I'm saying? That's all I'm saying. So I mean if, you know, it's cool. I feel like we good. I'm gonna still take that one too. I'm not mad at that. Let's go. What you got? You got something good or bad to say. You know, we're supposed to do five good and five bad. I'm going with bad. Okay. The way that you look at a new pair of shoes, you look so enamored at a new pair of shoes. And sometimes I feel like, damn, does he look at me like that? I feel like, I don't know. You might love the shoes more than me sometimes. No, that is not the case. That is not the case. I just love sneakers too. And I love the intricacies of the sneaker and all this stuff. So that's a ick. I gotta start looking at shoes in private. It's gonna be like, okay. So, all right. Okay. Let me get my, let me just hold my list right here. Since we're going with bads, we're going to still rock with the bads for now. Okay. A ick that I have, it just pieces me off every time. You say, oh, we're rushing. We're late. And then I'm like, all right, cool. And you're like, make me an outfit. And I'm like, all right, cool. So I make you an outfit. And then I put together like three different options. I give you shoes for every outfit, multiple sneakers to go with them, the different fits. I give you like a dress up, a casual, they all the different styles. I put them all together. And then you just go back to your neutral gray Jordan one loves. Look, they're the most comfortable and universal shoe there is. So what is up with that? No, sometimes you do pick the fit though. Sometimes I pick the fit. Or you might tweak it a little bit or add an accessory. But I feel like, so I can't say I feel like you don't like the style of the fits. I think it's just sometimes you got to alter it for your mood. That's what I always say. Like it's hard for me because I don't know what I want to wear until like I'm ready to walk out the door. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, that's true. So but it's still an ick though. Because I'm like, you just see me putting this all together. And then you just go on. Sometimes I do feel bad. Go with a whole different fit. I'll look at it and I'll be like, wow, look at all these. He like puts me together like three or four fits and like, I just feel like, you know, I'm not really, I'm not really feeling it. But you have to, she has chosen fits before. So it's not like it's all the time I'm getting rejected. But when I do, all right, what we got? We got a, you still going with bad? You got something good to say? Did you write anything good? Yeah, I did. But I think I'm just going to keep doing that. All right, give me some more bad. What you got? All right. The way that you'll push me or the dog out of the way for close to your shoes. Cause sometimes I'll be wearing some shoes that's like a hell of expensive. And when we first got together, she didn't even realize like what it meant to her stepping on my shoes. Yeah. And so for the people out there, you know, like if you have family members, typically those are the people that step on, your family and friends step on your shoes more than strangers do just cause you're really close to them. And because of that, oops, oops, oops. And I'm like, I don't have oops for a white suede, expensive ass sneaker. I don't got time for that. So I'm always like, ah, ah, ah, ah. When the dog comes around, especially I'm like, ah, ah, ah. And our dog is so little and he doesn't understand. So he's loving you. You know what he did? I was so pissed. It was just, so it was like raining and snowing hella hard here, but he was covered just soaking wet. You know, his fur is like, and he's wet. He waits till he comes all the way up here. He goes right there and he shakes off. I'm like, bro, I got all these expensive ass shoes on the ground. You can see the water splatter on the containers. And I'm like, bro, are you serious? Like what are the odds you could have done this anywhere in the house? You had to come right here next to my orange lobsters and my ones and my suede. I'm like, bro, what? So yeah, I'm always step farming. Yeah, I don't do it as aggressive. I'm just like, but it's like a reflex of yours from playing football. She knows that too. There's that. And like I, because I love you, I'm like all up underneath you. Especially like when we're first together, I was like, I want to breathe your air. And then I'm like, back up. You go step on my shoes. But I feel like I've gotten better about it. Yeah. And it's like, I don't do it as much either with my like wide receiver releases and stuff. Like when I'm walking by you and I'm coming around the corner and stuff. Like I don't do it as much. I used to like all the time like, like hand fighting and doing all the stuff. So I'm giving her the move. But that's yeah, I don't do that as much anymore. That was a ick. Okay. What was that your second one or your third one? That was your third one. That was my third one. Oh yeah. Here we go. When you wear Nike socks with them damn Yeezy slides or, because you can see it says like dry feet on the front sticking out the toe. And I'm like, bruh, are you serious right now? Well, I'm gonna say this. Um, we have a bin of socks and we have a bin of socks. We don't have anything that's not Nike or Jordan in there. We got like some, except for fuzzy socks. Yeah. But there's a couple other brands that I'm starting to introduce to our rotation. But we definitely only had, I used to have like some Adidas socks back at the other house, but I just got rid of all that stuff because I was like, the Nike socks feel the best. So I just wear those. Plus if I'm wearing Adidas and I got Nike socks on, nine times out of 10, it's like a higher cut where you can't see the solution. The pants is covering it. So I was like, it's whatever. Yeah. But yeah, that's, that was my mind. So I don't really have a lot of options. Yeah. You know, so I feel like we should probably get some like blank, like whatever. No, no, no. Remember, that's what happened. I told you to just wear the supreme socks. Remember? Yeah, but then they disappeared. I haven't seen them. All the packs? I just bought some more. How is this possible? That's another ink. We could talk about that one in a later. That's not sneaker related. My socks be disappearing all the time. And it ain't the dryer or the washer because I'll be doing the laundry. Another ink. All right. So I got something good to say. Wait, is it my x or yours? Because that was mine, right? That was yours. All right, go ahead. You just did three x. Where's the good stuff? You want me to do a good one? Yeah, come on. All right, all right. I'll do it. You, knowing the history behind almost every shoe, I think it, I'm sure your audience also, you know, agrees with that. I feel like it gives so much more meaning to what you're doing. And the reason why like sneaker heads love sneakers, you know, because I had no clue. I thought shoes were just shoes. And then you're like, oh no, like this Jordan represents this period of his career. And like, you know, this crazy thing that he did or like this record he broke, whatever it might be. So I feel like that's a good thing. And it's taught me a lot. And I'm sure it's taught your people a lot. Okay. All right. So I'll give you a good one. The, it was my second on this, but there's no particular order. Honestly, it was just the second they got wrote down. But it was that you're trying to learn. So some people could just not learn. And they just be like, oh yeah, that's cool. And then just like not know nothing. But you're like trying to learn the stuff. And you're trying to like know what it is. And you'll be like walking by and be like, are those the whatever it is? And that's the colorway. And they're like, yeah, you got it. So like, you always be like kind of testing yourself with me and stuff. So I think that's a good thing too. Okay. I like that one. I like that one. You know what I'm saying? You're stepping your game up. I like it. I like it. Okay, back to the X. Oh my God. We did one good thing. You're going to run out. You're not going to have fun saying good things. Oh, just back to back. The way you wake me up at 6.59 AM, no matter what. To answer the sneakers. I won't even have my eyeballs peeled open at all. We'll be like, just come on. Just like, just open it. No. All right. First off, it was like a year when we did that. And then I was like, okay, I'm going to be more selective. I'm going to respect your eyelids. You know what I'm saying? But now I do like the hottest drops that I know I need more entries in. And the ones that you're like, oh, that's justifiable. Or something that you may not even know of that's like, we're trying to get that for you. And you're like, oh, I didn't know it was coming out. So then it was like, oh, we still wake up for it. So now in current time, especially over the past year, it's been more of like very selective. Like we see the Travis Scott's and the Orange Lobsters in the most recent releases like that. And a lot of some found stuff like that makes sense. And don't get me wrong. I know you have a really good feeling when you hit on the dope releases because you've gotten me off whites, off white forces, off white dunks, Travis Scott, fragments, fear of God. Like you've hidden on some really good stuff as well for me. And then when you hit, you're like, ah, yeah, you know. So I mean, you can call it an ink. I know you hate it in the moment, but deep down you love it. Yeah, it does feel good to get like those special ones that people don't usually hit on. Yeah, yeah, no, it's actually crazy because the people that care the least are the ones that hit you guys is just what it is. But luckily I have it already auto set to size 13. So as soon as she enters, it's a size 13 entry for me. Doubling down, like I told you guys in Methods, we already know, we talk about that in the Hobby to Hustle program, but either way, okay, I can deal with that ink. You know what I'm saying? I think I can deal with these eggs. I feel like, you know, I can work on it. Maybe I can cut back a little bit less on certain things, but you know, the stiff arm still might come every now and then and the, but I get it. Okay, okay. Um, oh, okay. So this is an ink that I have, I'm working on. Like I said, I'm working on all these things. Okay. I need to work on this ink that I have for you. Okay. Is that you always want to be like wearing matching shoes. I'm like, come on. I love it. And you have been better about it lately because like, well, when you're on the same frequency, on the same vibe with somebody and you spend so much time with them, you naturally just end up kind of like matching or like, you know, doing certain things, your movements, things like that. There's been times, there's been so many times where we'll be in separate rooms getting dressed and he'll come in and wearing like a variation of the same outfit that I'm wearing. My closet is in a different, it's a room. So yeah, but I'll come in from my closet and she'll be in another room and then we'll be like, it should be like, what? And I'm like, it was, we didn't even plan it. So there'll be times like that. And there's been a couple of times where I'm like, all right, let's do this. Like this look good together. But yeah, it used to be like, ick, ick, ick. I was like, not dealing with it. I didn't want to have nothing to do with it. I know, but still I'm like, I feel like if it was for like, you know, a dope like photo shoot or something like that, where it's like, oh, we put this like fire, like retro fit together or did some classic. Every day, every day life. But I'm like, damn, just going to the store, like matching. Yeah, just then like, okay, think about, you know, when we have a family and stuff. The little kids. The little kids, you match with the kids, you match with me. Grab that box, I'll grab it real quick. One day when we have kids, this, you see what I'm saying? I got the lost and founds like, but I kind of want them to be fly, you know, on their own. Like where I'm not wearing the shoes on the same day. So I kind of feel like it that way. More photo shoot or something like that. I get that. But like, you know what I'm saying? These lost and founds go crazy. I had to, I had to go after these. But yeah, okay. So that was a, that was the ick that you had. That was the ick that you had. That I had. Oh yeah, that's right. That was the ick that I had. Okay. What, what you got? You gotta say something good. You're going to run out of bad things. She's like, well, actually I added six icks and four good. I have six icks. All right, I'll let you get an extra one, but you got to give me something good. All right, let's see. You being a hustler, because I feel like that had a lot to do. Like you were doing a beforehand, but I think that you being a sneakerhead and you, you know, having your business and trading and like being like, you know, at all the releases, all those things. Like I feel like that experience kind of gave you more grit and it translates into other parts of your life. So I like that part. You like that? Yeah. Cause I think, I think that's a good quality trait to have. And then, you know, you teach me a lot of things and like, you know, how to apply that in my world. So. Yeah, I like that. Okay. I could deal with that. I like that one. I like that one. You know, we hustling, baby. We out here grinding, you know what I'm saying? Okay. Yeah. So I guess for that one, it's kind of what the second one was you trying to learn, but also the first one that I wrote down was she supports me in my addiction, no matter what the price of the sneakers are. So if it's a $2,000 shoe, a $10,000 shoe, a $20,000 shoe, a $400 pair of shoes, me doing a trade, whatever it is, she's never like, no, don't do that. Are you sure that's like, she'll literally just ask me like, okay, if you think that's a good idea and it all makes sense and I'll like explain it. I don't need to explain it to her, but I kind of explain it to her to running it and through my head as well on like the deals and stuff. So you always like support that. And then you like believe in it. And I know that you like trust in it. Like, oh yeah, you're going to make a good deal. And I explain it and you're like, yeah, this makes sense. So it gives me more reassurance behind it. Besides like just thinking about something about myself and like, oh, am I doing a good thing? I don't know. And then later be like, damn. So yeah, I like that. Cool. Cool. I'll do another good one. Okay. The fact that you can clean shoes to damn near dead stock. Perfection. Okay. Yeah. I like that. Because you know, you know me. That's going to lead into my next egg. We might as well just get into my egg now, because I was going to say something good, but she just will dirty her shoes up so quick. And I'm like, bro, like, I know she can clean them. I know that she could wear them and everything's cool, but she knows that I could clean them. So she will just like, just be out. Just like, I'm like, who's you curb stomping today? Like, what is going on? Like what just happened? And then there's certain shoes that's like, like I said, neutral gray ones, right? Like she loves that shoe. So I'm like, let's just get her another pair. But I'm like, she's going to tear up that second pair so quick. I already know it. She's not going to learn how to rock one, stock one type situation. So we just kind of have to learn. But it's definitely a ick because I'm like, especially when you wear the shoes and leave them dirty as hell, and don't say nothing to me and just be stacking them all up. And I'm like, why don't you tell me I could at least clean them? I'm talking about you got me out here wearing dirty shoes. You can't be doing that. You used to write your forces. Oh yeah, the forces, we don't play that. Her forces get beat. I don't even try to clean them. I'll just get her a fresh new icy pair every single time. Those are heavy in the rotation. So we always got fresh brand new pairs just stacked up, waiting for the next rock. But okay, yeah, that was one of my icks. Okay, that was my last ick. That was your last ick. Okay, so then I'm going to keep doing my icks. You're going to have to do nothing but good after that. Okay, this is kind of an ick, but it's more just funny to me because it just looks off because I'm so used to you not. When you wear any other shoes than Jordans, it's just like I like look at you and like your outfit or something and I just like something's not right here. Like something's, something's off and it's just the shoes because I'm so used to seeing you and like just Jordans. Like Jordans always. So when I see you in something else, I'll be like, something's just not, something's just not right. But when I wear like, what? Like when I wear like my dress shoes or like different brands? Because I feel like my outfits that I wear with dress shoes, they're like outfits that go with dress shoes. So sometimes I'll put Jordans with them, depending on like if it's like a low OG one or something, that's kind of more neutral to go with it. But I feel like that stuff is like pretty standard with those type of fits. It's like the boots mostly. I'd be like looking like when you like, because you don't wear them very often, but like when you wear your, like Doc Martens and stuff, I just feel like, I don't know, something's just not sitting right with me. I don't know. But it's not like a full ick. It's just something that like I have to get used to. You're just like not used to seeing it, you wear them like once a year, twice a year. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I, I just feel like, Just pull out the Docs every now and then, you know what I'm saying? Throw in the rotation, you know what I'm saying? It's crazy because people, it's so funny. People think I have like all these brands of, or I have only Jordans and Nike's. No, you have others. But I have like almost 20 different brands of sneakers. Like it's crazy. I got all these random brands. Like I meet people that have their own brands and like people send me stuff and I might wear it every now and then. But yeah, obviously my dominant sneaker is gonna be Jordans. But yeah, I'm sure for her, she's probably like, and it's crazy because she sees me wear all this stuff and other people on the internet don't even know that I'd be wearing that other stuff. So I guess that's like a inside information for them to even know that I'd be wearing that type of stuff. So, okay, I'll deal with it. You know what I'm saying? I'm not sure if I'm gonna just like start wearing my Docs more often or anything for that. So you're gonna have to get used to it. Yeah, I'll just adjust. You don't even, it's kind of weird when you wear yours too though. Right, that's what I'm saying. Like when you wear your Docs, I'm like, it don't look bad. It doesn't look bad. It's just like, it's just different. Yeah, yeah. I feel you, I feel you on that one. Okay, I like that. All right, so one thing that I like is that you know what you like. Like there's no, it's not an ick, but it's interesting how you like all the expensive stuff without knowing the price. Which is very interesting. But she literally, I'm like, there were like 10 shoes sitting out. She's like, I like those. And I'm like, that's the most expensive one. She's like, for real? And I'm like, yeah. Look, I'm like that in all aspects of life. I don't mean to say that. And it's not even just shoes. It's not even just shoes. I just have an eye for like good stuff. Like I'll just be like, it could be anything. It's not even shoes. That's what's crazy. It could be anything. Like I'll be like, oh yeah, that one. It is what it is. But you do like what you like. And I know it makes it easier for me to get you stuff. Because I'm like, oh, she likes dunks. She likes Jordan 1 Lowe's. Some retros depending. Certain colors, different things like that. Like I get it. I like what you, I know what you like. You got a OG1 high. You got a good versatile collection. Bunch of different retro. I got a little collection now. You know what I'm saying? You're about like 50, 60 pair now. You know what I'm saying? That's crazy. I have never had that many shoes in my entire life. Yeah. Now she got a whole collection. We all have to show her a collection one day. Should we show them the collection? Or should we just build it up some more until you get like, maybe when you get like 100 pairs. 100. That's what I was thinking. All right. So when you get to, damn. Now we got to get her to 100. I mean, there's no rush. She be like, oh yeah, no, it's fine. You don't need to get those. And then I get them anyways. And then she be like rocking up soon as she get out. She like, ah, you know, I'm going to pull this fit real quick. Nah, but yeah. Was that a good thing? What were we talking about? Good things or bad things? I think that was a good thing. Yeah, I like, oh yeah, you like what you like. And I know I like what you like. Yeah. I like that you like what you like. Yeah. A good one. The way that you build a collection for our future kids. Yeah, yeah. You have a huge collection of baby shoes. And our kids are going to be the flies on the block no matter where we are. Samples, OGs, all the retros fly are just OG colorways. Yeah. OG models. Yeah. No, the collection is going to be fire. Yeah. For sure. 100%. 100%. Okay. Speaking of fire, you always put fire face together with your shoes, but it's still a good thing though. But you be stealing my stuff sometimes. You be taking my clothes, my shirts, my hoodies, getting makeup on it. Even my expensive ass clothes. I try not to. She's like, oh, don't worry. I won't get anything on this. Next thing you know, the whole collar. I'm like, bruh, but it's okay though. It's all right. It's all right. It's just clothes. You do be pulling some fire face time at it. I still like it. I feel like it's hard to buy oversized things when you're not oversized. Yeah. So it's just easy for me to go in your closet and be like, okay, this fits a certain way. This doesn't fit a certain way. And so I can just browse through there and grab something. She literally goes shopping. It's like she's on a shopping spree in my closet all the time because again, like I said, my closet's like a whole room. So it's just like racks. And it's just like she's just walking through it. Boop, I'll take this, boop, I'll take that. Yeah. So yeah. Was that a good thing? Yeah, that was a good thing. I like that you pull out fire fits with the kicks. Okay. I got one thing left, I think. Yeah, I got one thing left. Let's see. I gotta check to see what I got. You got two Xs, or you got six Xs. Six Xs. The way you say you're going to cut down on your collection every year and it just grows. I can't even say nothing. He'll be like, oh yeah, I'm gonna cut it down to like 150 pair. And then all of a sudden it ends up at like over 300. No, over 500. Over 500 by the end of the year. And I'm like, how does that even happen? But I'm not really mad at it because I know what you're doing. It's crazy. And it's like holding like a stock. No, for real. I'm making the right decisions. I know what I'm doing. That's the thing. And if I get... You're not buying things just to buy them. Yeah, no. If I get good deals, I know what to do. But like accommodating for your collection is rough. Yeah. Definitely. Yeah. We'll figure it out. We'll be all right. Eventually I'll have a thousand pairs. So yeah, you have one more. Okay. Oh, my last... Or no, I got only got good. No, I got good. I just thought about what I got good. So last good thing I like is you wear kid sizes. Oh, okay. And because you wear kid sizes, it's so much more affordable to get certain sneakers. And it makes it a lot easier to hit up like shops if I don't get it for retail or whatever and still get a really good deal or through trades and different stuff like that. So if you had a bigger foot and you were like a smaller men's size and you was like an eight or a nine in men's or something, I'll be like struggling because I'm like now I'm paying my price for retail and then my price again for retail. So like every little bit like that is always I love it because I'm like, yes, you wear kid sizes. This is great. Like you're six youth. If anybody wants to send her a size six youth and any Jordans or dunks or forces, hit the PO boxes down below in the description. We'll get her laced up. We got to get her to 100 pairs of shoes. Yeah. Okay. So yeah, that's what I like that. I really do. Okay. So my last good thing is you looking fly and having good style because I feel like that does like your shoes are a huge part of your style and the way that you put fits together. You always start from shoes and then up. So I feel like it kind of inspires you and your style and I like your style. So okay, okay. That's sneaker head related. I like that. I like that. Yeah. It's a very interesting how the style game works. There's people that like follow the trends of all the stuff that goes on. And then there's just like me who's just like my stuff evolves a little bit, but I'm very like true to my style, very comfy. And I think that's the only reason why my style works for people that they see me because they're like, oh, they know, like anybody that knows me, they know, like, oh, that's DJ. Like that's his style. He's going to be chilling and have some fly on. He's going to be good. So I'm cool with that. I like that. I like that. Okay. So we got anything else for the people before we go? Check out Hobby to Hustle. Yes. And if you like this kind of content, if you like me being, you know, featured. Yeah, we can get you on a channel. We can get you on a channel. I'll be around. So. All right. Yeah. We'll come up with some more like series and some more Q and A's or whatever. I don't know. We'll think of something. Yeah. All right. We got to go. Okay. Peace. Bye. Yo, before you go, I just launched my sneaker head academy where we got everything on the inside.
