TSB Podcast: EP.293 – Don’t Wear adidas Track Pants with Nikes or Jordans

Jun 1, 2021

In this episode of TSB, Caesar, Guru, and Dunks are joined by former co-host MJ and special guest co-host Mayor.

Mayor takes issue with some of the choices in our “Fab 5 Sneakers of the Week”. He REALLY finds fault with Caesar’s choice of the “Ugliest Sneaker of the Week”.

Everyone hates Jordan 1 Mids and Air Force 1 Mids. Just Mids in general.

Don’t wear Adidas track pants with Nikes or Jordans.

Mayor tells us why he’ll NEVER come back to Detroit.

Guru and Mayor give Caesar the fits over a pair of purple and iridescent Converse high tops he brought in-studio.

Mayor tells us the story behind the “Puerto Rican Flag” AF1 debacle from a few years ago.

Have resellers gone too far? Shoes made for those with disabilities, like the Nike Flyease Go, are being bought up and resold for $700+.

Rumor has it that Marcus Jordan has another Trophy Room X Air Jordan collab in the works. We had an interesting conversation about this one.

We reminisce on some of our Sneaker Con trips.

We’re later joined by artist, designer, and customizer Mache 275. We discuss the early days of sneaker customizing and how he turned that into a full time business. He tells us the TRUE story behind his “Ace Ventura” Ewing Athletics collab. And we also ask him what it was like to design his own sneaker, and how he’s become the official customizer of the WWE.

And finally, in This Week In Stupid, a woman is caught at an Atlanta airport trying to smuggle cocaine in the midsoles of sneakers.
