It’s been a while since I posted something, and with it already being a year since I started Social Rec. and all it’s pieces, podcast, Youtube channel, social media pages, and this site, I figure let’s keep the momentum and write a piece worth reading.

My experience with the Tom Sachs/Nike Craft WearTesters program

Why Stance masks are a hit
I’ve been a big fan of Stance for the past 5 or so years. When I first heard of them I wasn’t too impressed with their work. They had designed these awkward looking socks with NBA players on them that were cartoonish, and I wasn’t really feeling the vibe with them. Eventually I found myselfContinue reading “Why Stance masks are a hit”
Unboxing the Harden Vol 5.
Watch the video below of an unboxing of the Harden Vol 5: When I got wind of this shoe releasing, I was excited!

Nike: Better is Temporary”
When I first heard about this book being releases, I was super excited. I didn’t truly know what all it entailed but it had to be important if it was being pre-ordered and it looked huge! When I saw the cover of it, that also caught my attention. I did a bit of research intoContinue reading “Nike: Better is Temporary””

Nike X Filip Pagowski NBA team shirts
This collaboration is a couple years old, though when it first released back in 2018, I missed out on buying the Dallas Mavericks shirt because it left the site or showed it as sold out when I checked for it one day. Low and behold two years later, the shirts, most of them, have poppedContinue reading “Nike X Filip Pagowski NBA team shirts”
Unboxing the Air Max 90 “Nordic”
When I first saw these kicks, I have to admit I did like them. My good friend recommend I get a pair, but I wasn’t super in love with them. Especially since they could only really be worn around Christmas time. So naturally, I passed. It wasn’t until about two weeks from Christmas 2020 thatContinue reading “Unboxing the Air Max 90 “Nordic””
Adidas X Toy Story Collaboration
This collaboration is a few years old, though one of my favorite collaborations. I’m a huge Pixar fan, and love Toy Story, part III being my favorite. I didn’t follow this collaboration closely, though I wish I did. I came across these two pairs Christmas 2019, as I was shopping for my children. My sonContinue reading “Adidas X Toy Story Collaboration”
Nike Adapt BB E.A.R.L
When I first head about this shoe dropping, I was ecstatic. I had missed the first release of the Nike Hyperadapt 1.0, the first self-lacing shoe based off of the sought after, Nike Air Mag. The price point of $700 was just too high for my budget. However, when Nike released a similar model builtContinue reading “Nike Adapt BB E.A.R.L”
