Beautiful Nightmare: Elephant In The Room (2nd Sketch)
Our Friends at Beautiful Nightmare give us a second glimpse of The Elephant In the Room. Check out the beginning phase HERE .
E + R = O
Event + Response = Outcome
E: You cannot do anything to change the event, it is going to happen and you have zero control after it happens.
R: The (Re)Action to the event, and you have 100% control.
O: Again you have 100% Control and the ability to create options.
Thus when a reoccurring event takes place, you now have the experience to manipulate (not control) & prepare for E.
If I lost you, see you this Weekend.....
Buy, Sell, & Trade for 2 days: Adidas Originals comes back to Washington, DC this weekend.

Dark Pine Foamposite One Sole
Once again, people are concerned with Nike using a blue tint on the rubber outsole of their sneakers. Nike does this to reduce yellowing of the sole but many people don't favor the way it looks on the shoe. There is a picture below of one shoe with alot of internet buzz and hype, which is the
Dark Pine Foamposite One. This is a picture of the sole provided by Kickkspott.

HYPE
18-Wale-The Hype-MF via @Eatmykicks
Music inspired after seeing the Yeezy 2 swarm the web.
(An Example of Hype..probably photoshop)
HYPE- 1)To Stimulate, excite, or agitate; 2) To create interest in by flamboyant or dramatic methods; promote or publicize showily; 3) to intensify advertising, promotion, publicity by ingenious or questionable claims, methods; 4) To Trick, Hoopla, Swindle, deception.
At the end of the day we all contribute to the hype from your consumer, blogger, reseller, corporation, retailer, entertainer, etc. It's in the foundation of business/commerce; in order to sell a product it needs to be marketed/promoted. So why do we make a big deal out of "HypeBeast"? Last time I checked it was an online mag HypeBeast.com . But the term HypeBeast carries a negative vibe to it. (no relation to the website).
HypeBeast- " A person that collects clothing, shoes, and accessories for the sole purpose of impressing." - Urban Dictionary
If this definition is correct and you are worrying about impressing someone based on your material things; take the time out to evaluate your priorities. Enjoy life and everything in it, once it's over so are your materials.
Take the Hype for what it is..Promotion. Don't Feed into the Drama and let it define who you are.
Be Yourself, stay Focus.... Eat What You Like.

Air Jordan X (10) Comeback?
Originally set to release with the 10/13 CDP pack, the Air Jordan 10 Chicago is set to release January 2012. This could definitely mark a comeback of the Air Jordan 10 in 2012, along with the Air Jordan 4. This is definitely a nice colorway, the full-grained leather eyestay also hits hard. How do you guys feel about these releasing?

Nike Foamposite Pro "Dark Pine"
The world has received more pictures of the Dark Pine foams from kicks-lab.com !
This is one of the smoothest colorways Nike has produced in my opinion, it's very low-key. Nike has also been using the blue outsole lately to slow, or reduce yellowing and aging of the sole. I don't really favor the look of the blue outsole on this particular shoe, but the color is still a great look. How do you feel about these? Leave us a little feedback.

JORDAN QUAI 54
This shoe releases July 2 at House of HOOPS. This shoe features a white tumbled leather on its upper, a black bottom with silver and green accents. A green glass sole, tongue, and lace locks make this a very unique shoe, and a limited release. I personally think this is a unique shoe that will sell out immediately, but leave comments and let me know how you feel about them.

A Brief History Lesson
I posed a simple question on Twitter about two days ago, I was hoping to giveaway a pair of Pewter Foamposites & some Beautiful Nightmare apparel for anyone who was willing to answer the question correctly. No one Answered; So lets go back in time, Review, Answer, & Conclude:
"@Eatmykicks
Who can tell me the names & the significant link between Adidas & Puma?
8 Apr via Seesmic for Android"--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"@Eatmykicks
Who can tell me the names & the significant link between Adidas & Puma?
8 Apr via Seesmic for Android"--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Iconic Three Stripe logo was trademarked by the founder Adolf "Adi" Dassler on August 8, 1949.
Rudolf Dassler is the founder of PUMA, which was officially registered on October 1, 1948.
__________________________________________________________
CONCLUSION
See anything in Common? Maybe Dassler? Why Yes, the two founders of PUMA and Adidas are two brothers. Before they separated they both were owners of "Gebrüder Dassler Schuhfabrik" in 1924.
AND NOW WE KNOW THE CONNECTION BETWEEN ADIDAS & PUMA. IF YOU REALLY HAVE A PASSION FOR ANYTHING IN LIFE (ONE OF MY PASSIONS IS FOOTWEAR) KNOW THE HISTORY. YOU WILL BE SURPRISED ON WHAT YOU FIND.
NEXT TIME I ASK A QUESTION ON TWITTER...ANSWER @EATMYKICKS LOL!!
Nike Air Max 1
Browsing around sneaker news I came across these Air Max's, funny thing is I never paid too much attention to them the first go around. The more I keep seeing them, the more I start to like em. Maybe it's the red sole and the off set brown Suede upper. Not sure honestly, but these Air Max's will get a chance if I ever find them. What you think?
