True to Size

Hello? Anyone there? After some technical difficulty, looks like we got the episode to upload! Thank goodness because y'all are in for a treat. This week we discuss everything from bagels to barbecuing to Kyrie Irving; and literally everything in between. We get some very cool news from our friends out in London, and close things out by playing a couple rounds of Would You Rather.

The gang is back and we brought a homie along. This week we're joined by friend of the show and talented designer; Nate Flip - creator of Vectored Soles. Before we dive deep with Nate, we get to take part in one of our favourite past times - talking about sneaker lawsuits. We also listen to Joel talk about one of the most.... unique? sneakers we've ever seen. Nate then goes through a round of 21 Guestions before giving us his sneaker life story, and telling us what got him into design.

A couple weeks of some happenings had us missing the pod, but we are back and we are loaded with chats. The double fire round tradition continues, and after we get through them we cover some tragic news in This Week In Kicks. We discuss our nerdy sides in NSR, and round it out with a convo about diversity. Collabs seem to be getting predictable and bland; do we need more variety in collaborators and the pairs we see given the collab treatment?

Wow.. 200 episodes. We didn't even think we'd ever hit 100 episodes, so we certainly never thought we'd make it all the way to 200! We can't thank everyone enough who's been messing with us from the jump. The shares, the messages, and of course the downloads - we appreciate it all!

Where do we even begin with this episode..? This week we start things off with a little discussion about one of the GOATS - this Nike Roshe - as the iconic silhouette turns 10 this year. After that we follow with news of the conclusion from the never-ending Nike and Vanessa Bryant saga. Then we move to some recent pick-ups, with another big one checked-off the list by Joel. We close the episode with a discussion about independent sneaker brands, and where we think they fit into modern sneaker culture. Why don't we see them come around very often, and why don't they seem to last?

We're back and Merry Air Max Day!  Not only is this episode dropping on Saturday morning, it's also every sneakerhead's favourite unofficial holiday! We missed y'all like crazy, but like we said; we're getting older, so we need load management to keep our legs fresh for the playoffs. This week we start it out with a ridiculous Fire Round question that's right up our alley, and run the remainder of the episode with Maximum Air in mind! From our first pairs, to some commentary about this year's Air Max Month releases, we cover it all!

Class is in session and we're back with another banger of an episode. Our boy Doon wasn't able to make it this week, but he sent us his well wishes, so we did our best to find a replacement for the OG. This week's guest comes to you live all the way from balmy Utah - teacher, shooter, father, and advocate for non-Ikea shelving - Mister Andy Dutton. After our usual segments, we speak to Andy about what it's like being the teacher at school with the cool shoes and a mild Instagram fame. He gives us a rundown of what got him into photography, and we close it out with a brief convo about the dad life and the sneaker life intertwining.

After our own all-star break, we're back! It's easy to tell that we missed a week, because the laughs are prevalent and the childish banter is consistent for the duration of the episode. We kick it off with a hypothetical question about Nike becoming their own resell platform, and in lieu of any news, we then talk about our favourite women's releases of all time in honour of International Women's Month. To wrap it all up, we talk about door shoes. Which shoes do we leave at the door, what shoes might we want to start leaving at the door, and what pair would be at the door if we lived in different cites around the world?

We're baaaaaack; and not only us this time, but we're joined by our first guest in a hot minute! Our boy Robert, aka Stricks, joins us all the way from Dallas, Texas; to talk kicks, and give us all of the yees and haws. This week we cover Jordan Brand taking over the Super Bowl half time show yet again, have the wildest NSR convo ever, and then jump into things with Robert. We run through a round of 21 Guestions, before getting into what got him into sneakers in the first place. Then we have a discussion about photography - what life is like as a freelance photographer, the differences between shooting food and sneakers, and the game of winning the Instagram algorithm.

No it's not our birthday but we are celebrating a milestone, and that's us reaching 100,000 downloads! We're not super into the analytics about what we do, because we do it for the love and fun; but that's a big number and that's pretty cool. Thanks to everyone who rocks with us on a week-to-week basis; we can't wait to bring you more goofy sneaker content for 100,00 more downloads! 

As for this week's episode, we start it off with a fire round question that creates some interesting names for sneakers, and then we break down the numbers now that the Louis Vuitton x Nike x OffWhite Air Force One auctions have ended. Then, we discuss some of our favourite series' to binge during the cold cold winter, before closing it out with a convo about funky shoes. Jeremy Scott, Kerwin Frost, Sean Wothersoon - we show them all some love!
