And it’s off to Hawaii! Stayed at work until 7:30pm finishing up everything before going on vacation. Why is it so much work making sure everything is in order before you can leave? Oh well, I’ll be drinking mai-tai’s on the beach. Brad, this one’s for you!
Only 4 days to go. Two working days. Gotta start packing soon.
Only 5 more days before I’m soaking in the sun and working on my tan.
This Is The Twenty
Will You Be The One?
After spending a day in the Air Jordan XX, I would have to say it has immediately secured its place as one of my favorite
Jordans
of all time. Not only does it look amazing with the patent leather, laser etching, and ankle strap, but the overall feel is fantastic. There is also a brand new cushioning system, something they call IPS. Independent Podular Suspension. No longer just an air unit in the heel and forefoot, but 10 individual pods of varying density on each shoe. It makes for a very interesting ride, pretty damn comfy. Based on looks and feel, this shoe is definitely in the top 5 of all time.
1. Jordan XIII (my first pair and most comfortable)
2. Jordan XVI (love the cushioning)
3. Jordan XI (first patent leather
Jordan
, a classic)
4. Jordan XX (looks great, feels great)
5. Jordan XII (the Playoffs are one of the best colorways ever)

I think Brand Jordan should just have a direct link to my bank account. This weekend was the release of not one but two colorways of the Air Jordan XX. The first one announced was Stealth/Black and there was no doubt I was getting a pair. Then came the supposedly "limited" White/Black colorway. When I saw pictures of those, I had to have those as well. $350 for two pairs of shoes, on the same day. Damn.
And that’s not all. My buddy at Niketown told me they can get 40% off of NikeiD shoes, but only for the week the XX’s dropped. Couldn’t pass up that offer so I got a pair of 2K5’s for $90, in Cal colors of course.
Three pairs of shoes in one day, I think that’s a first for me. Almost made it four in two days. Went to Sheik’s and they had the Air Zoom Generation (LeBron’s first shoe) in white/red. I have the samples of those in a size 9 but the 8.5’s would fit me better. This was their last pair and it was marked down to $44, what a deal. I was debating a lot, I didn’t need them but they were so cheap. But when the guy brought out the box, it was shredded and that pretty much ended that right there.
The countdown to Hawaii has begun. 7 more days until I’m chilling on the white sand beaches of Hawaii. Swimming with sea turtles, dolphins, and all kinds colorful fish. No more rain, hello 83 degree weather.
7 DAYS!!!!!!!!
Aloha!
