Dude Is In Love

And it’s not with the Martian above. Although… Lil Wayne does seem to share a love with Dude. That’s right, Dude’s in love with the Nike Vintage Blazer. Highs. Suede. If I told you how many pairs he now owns you’d label him a glutton. So do that privately. For now, peep what’s keeping his heart and his feet warm:

We're All For Functionality

But what the heck is this? A pocket on the back of the hi-top? Yes, we know we just said "heck" - who still says that? - but look at the bigger picture here. Yeah that luminous yellow one!



Raf Simons is a men's fashion brand that is loved by the "fashion-forward" folks like Kanye and Diddy. And while we understand that people follow what these celebrities wear closely, why exactly would someone want these Astronaut Pocket Sneakers? Even the black ones don't pass.

But maybe these green and grey (don't hate on us because we don't work for Dulux) ones might... Hm.





If you were paid to rock these sneakers (and look like the guy wearing the pretty black Yohji Yamamoto jacket above who was snapped in Tokyo). And maybe given a day off from the nine-to-five too - with a bag of Mr Sweet Jelly Beans thrown into the mix, would you wear these? And if you would, what exactly would you put in the pocket

Yo, Jury!

For their 2010 Spring/Summer (which is fashion speak for "ask Milli what that means"), Dior Homme brought out a carazy hi-top sneaker. We guess the simplistic nature of the almost Timb-like shoe coupled with the fact that it comes in four colourways is an attraction. We also like the fact that they have a very Yohji Yamamoto vibe about them.



But are you guys feeling those laces? And what about that zip in the back? When is too much just that: too much? Or is this what it means to wear haute couture? Again, ask Milli! Hehehehe. theblagg is kinda feeling these but we're not sure we'd spend Jelly Beans money on them. Not even if we found knock offs at Campus Square. What say you jury (yes, all ten of you)?

Chuck Taylor or Chuck Failure

If you are theblagg la familia then you are probably aware of the love we have for Chuck Taylor (especially cut-off Chucks with skate shoe laces. FIRE!). So this post might come as a shock because we are very "unsure" of the direction Converse is taking our dearly beloved Chuck. See for yourself.

We love the leather, but wasup with the velcro strap yo?? NOT BLAGGER!!


We love everything in black...Guess its true what they say huh "There's always an exception".

We will probably love the cut-off or low-top version but the high-top is a bit of a disappointment. Your Thoughts?
