Stalley<\/strong> has shoes, perhaps too many to chose. In this installment of Pick Your Kick<\/em>, our July Guest Editor shares his preferences on popular silos and colorways, both new and old alike. What are his takes on some of the recent sneaker debates and age-old questions? Read on to get Stalley’s say and his kick preferences.<\/p>\n

Air Jordan 5 “Grape” vs. Air Jordan 5 “Black Grape”<\/h2>\n

Kick Pick:<\/strong> Air Jordan 5 “Grape”<\/p>\n

Stalley:<\/strong> “Woah, putting the pressure on me! (Laughs<\/em>) I’ve got to go with the classics, the white ones. Just a classic colorway, crispy. Even though I love the black ones, I’ve got to go with the whites.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Air Jordan 1 Black\/Red vs. Air Jordan 1 Black\/Royal<\/h2>\n

Kick Pick:<\/strong> Black\/Red<\/p>\n

Stalley:<\/strong> “Black and red. Classics, all day. You know, that’s one of my favorite shoes. I love that shoe beat up. I used to wear that shoe when I worked at ALIFE. I wore that shoe everyday for probably two to three months straight just because I love the way that shoe looks when it’s broken in. I know a lot of people like their shoes crispy, but there’s a few shoes that I like worn or kind of beat up. That Jordan 1 is amazing. Even to skate in that shoe. If you skateboard, I think that’s the best shoe to skate in.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nike LeBron 9 vs. Nike LeBron X<\/h2>\n

Kick Pick:<\/strong> Nike LeBron 9<\/p>\n

Stalley:<\/strong> “The 9s. I think the 9 is much better than the X. I like a few of the Xs, but I didn’t like as many Xs as I did the 9s. I would say the ‘Taxis’ and the ‘Black History Months’ are my favorites.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nike LeBron 8 “South Beach” vs. Nike LeBron 9 Elite “South Beach”<\/h2>\n

Kick Pick:<\/strong> Nike LeBron 9 Elite “South Beach”<\/p>\n

Stalley:<\/strong> “I like the 9, I like the 9 Elite.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Converse Chuck Taylor vs. Converse Pro Leather<\/h2>\n

Kick Pick:<\/strong> Converse Chuck Taylor<\/p>\n

Stalley:<\/strong> “Chuck Taylors all day. That’s one of my favorite shoes of all time, it’s just a classic shoe. I really like the Skate CONS. The Skate CONS look better as I look down on my foot because the regular Chucks are narrow.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
