Air Jordan Bred
The Air Jordan's Bred releases have received a lot of publicity in both the fashion and sneaker communities as well as the general news and media. So just like that cheesy situation that arises between peers... I'll tell you the bad news first.Sneaker Killings
Usually this blog tends to take a light-hearted approach to things, however this is one subject I will approach with utter seriousness. People are being killed for their sneaks. Now many people have said "I'd kill for those" I myself have said it about the Nike x Staple Design Navigation pack. But I wouldn't some people have gone far enough to actually take another humans life for shoes. Most recently and notably was the killing of Joshua Wood which has been reported to be for his "Air Jordan XI "Bred"s. I may be underplaying the seriousness of this but somebodies life is not worth a pair of $185 sneaks that are by far not the nicest of the "Breds" (personally I feel the IV's) and the fact they will most likely be available on eBay in a few weeks. What I'm getting at is that there are shoes that are worth much more.
I do not want 2013 to be remembered as the year of the Sneaker Killings. So please, while i think it is important to take fashion and sneaks seriously. Life and death is a whole other level.
Bred Itself
"Bred" is a clever way of making a standard black and red colourway sell, because its not like the majority of Jordan's don't already have black or red in the colourway. I doubt this is due to a lack of ideas in the Jordan HQ. Considering the latest Thunder/Lightning releases have actually restored my faith in the brand and the future of street/sportswear in itself. But while people seem to go crazy for Breds it doesn't excuse the fact this colourway was existed since 1999 when NikeID was originally launched. Seriously: black body with touches of white/grey and a red sole and red details and you have made yourself a pair of Breds... simply enough. surely?
