Still not enough? Well, if your dad cooks the kicks and cops the heat then he must have shoes to flex. So of course, the jeans need to represent the ‘fit, and Hollister has just the right jeans to gift – the Epic Flex Dad Jean. I kid you not.

With these, your dad can definitely flex the Kyrie 6 Unite the World. But to up the epic-ness, these jeans would pair better with the Travis Scott Air Force 1 releasing on November 16, 2019. On that morning, you gotta hope you see one of these on your SNKRS app.

Then those Epic Flex jeans would live up to its name.

Can you see it the beauty in their product page? If I had a sneaker bot and wanted to cop the in-demand Air Force 1 Low Off-White Black White, what keywords would I tell my bot to look out for? Maybe, your keywords would look something like this “off white air force 1 black.”

Guess what? Feature Sneaker Boutique (or is it really Nike) read your mind and played tricks with this interesting-looking Air Force 1 Utility Mid sneaker. Yes, it’s an AF1 and the name of the colorway is Off White/Black/White and with a price tag of $165 (close to the legit Off White AF1 retailing for $160), most bots would be convinced they found one of The Ten and would have gone into action, buying any and all sizes automatically, hoping to make exorbitant resell profit.

And this shoe did sell out on Feature Sneaker Boutique so this bot-tricking scenario may have been successful. This shoe is still readily available at Norstrom for comparison purposes.

Back in 2007, I thought that would be my AF1 breakout year with the focus on the Round Mound of Rebound, Charles Barkley. But I never pulled the trigger.

Most recently, the Year of the Dragon AF1 caught my eye. Its design is clean and simple and ethnic. But then I learned this was a Quickstrike, not a general release. That means waiting in line for the hopes of getting a pair. And did I mention the $200 price tag?

So I passed on the AF1 YotD, but a funny thing happened. I came across the new AF1 Camo (as in camouflage). Available in black or an olive green “cargo khaki,” the images of these AF1s stuck with me. The colors are still somewhat muted but that camo pattern is unmistakable. I couldn’t get these out of my head. Even better, they’re a general release, costing half of the Year of the Dragons. So I got them.

And wow, they don’t disappoint. The cargo khaki colorway is greener than they look on Nike’s site but in a good way. There’s definitely some character with these kicks, and I am pleasantly surprised.
