Watched Randall Park and Ali Wong in Netflix’s Always Be My Maybe and now Hello Peril’s song, Tennis Ball (aka Bounce Back), is stuck in my head. Bounce back!

Transformers and Ghostbusters
Combine “Who you gonna call?” and “Autobots, roll out!” to get this collaboration. Yes, $150 for this toy on the NTWRK app, but it already sold out.
Yeezy Boost Names
I never really thought much about the colorway names of recent Yeezy Boost releases, but really their names are interesting. Take the upcoming Tephra 700 model releasing this week. What’s a tephra? When a volcano erupts it will sometimes eject material such as rock fragments into the atmosphere. This material is known as tephra. Source. […]
Warning: May Contain Adult Content
That’s right. According to Tumblr’s Community Guidelines, some of my posts may contain “adult content” and is therefore blocked. Oddly, these posts are simply cross posts from Instagram. So watch the video below depicting potential adult content. I guess that Bruce Lee figurine is a little too correct and those Nike Manoa boots are too […]
ResExp: Coppingkicks Notes
Just some notes about #coppingkicks before I forget: The rush before a drop. The frustration of site issues, crashes, lag, etc. The hope of a successful checkout. The devastation of getting the L. Hope renewed during a restock. Devastated one or two more times or perhaps, salvation. The disappointment when the price of that W […]
ResExp: Coppingkicks Mood
Okay, really, it’s not that bad. But right now, my #coppingkicks mood is like this: I missed out on most hyped releases, but again, just gotta keep things in perspective. Although they are just shoes, I wouldn’t have minded a pair or two (hint, hint Travis Scott).
I Got No Cactus Plant
Do you see a common theme going on here? No FoG. No Jacks. No Jordan Pop. No Mars Yard Overshoe. No Cactus Jacks (again). No donuts. So of course, following this trend, when the Nike collaboration with Cactus Plant Flea Market dropped this morning, I got another no.
I Do Have a Cactus Jack Jordan
So I’m still bummed about missing out on the Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 for the third time. But I can take some solace in knowing that I actually do own a Cactus Jack labeled Air Jordan. This is the lowkey pair but probably the most performance-based model via the Air Jordan 33. Still though, […]
Donut Denied
Let’s just say this day has been a rough one. All in all, it’s just another Saturday but from a copping kicks standpoint, I got donuts. Nada. Zilch. So what better way to commemorate this than by eating some donuts. But you know what kind of day this has been right? Of course, there were […]
A Morning of Stress
Bottom line: I didn’t get a pair of the Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 that released on Nike SNKRS. I was there, and I was ready with three phones and three accounts. But I got hit with error after error just trying to navigate the purchasing process. Apple Pay didn’t register. I think I mistyped […]
Shipping Is How Much?!?
Living in Hawaii, you have to accept a few things. One of these is the higher cost of shipping items to the aina. Take, for example, this Funko Pop of his Airness, Michael Jordan. Although now reduced in price from $12.50 to $9.00, the shipping cost is truly cost prohibitive. Yes, you’re seeing that right. […]
I Wasn’t the One, Overshoe Edition
I also was not the one who supposedly got the last size 9 of the Nike + Tom Sachs Mars Yard (Overshoe) High Tops from Mr. Porter.
