After the Nike BHM event, I headed over to Succezz Boutique, Downtown Chicago's Premier Sneaker and Apparel Shops, to check out the On The Daily Comic Launch and AJ Retro 2 "25th Anniversary" Release Party. Although the OTD Comic is very new on the scene, I am already an uber fan, what could be better than a comic strip about SNEAKERHEADS from the city of WIND??? Nothing I tell you, NOTHING. The amazing team behind the drawings consist of Solo RM (pictured with me above) and St!zo - both lovers of sneaker culture and terrific artists. It was wonderful meeting them and I hope to interview the duo in the near future. Be sure to check the OTD site every Monday for a new comic!
Succezz was also the place to be for the Anniversary Air Jordan Retro 2 release. The white/silver 3M retro 2 is one of many primarly white based AJ models being dropped this year to commemorate the 25th year since MJ entered the NBA and completely REVOLUTIONIZED the game of basketball - likewise for the sneaker industry. The drinks and food were flowing and the fellas were definitely lining up to cop a pair, I only wish they were available in GS sizes. I was, however, able to cop the Air Jordan Vivid Pink Spiz'ikes GS which are set to drop next week, SCORE! The night was slamming and I had an awesome time! Check out pics after the jump!
