Twitpic Recap: Jim Jones’ Summer Sneakers
This summer’s been big for rappers and sneakers. Fabolous got his own Reeboks and Fat Joe got whatever brand his “Recession” sneakers are dropping on. But no one has really gone in (at least on twitter) like Jim Jones has.
When we talked to Capo recently, he said he was going to rock a new pair of sneakers every day of the summer, and post a photo of them on his Twitter using Twitpic. Although he hasn’t been 100 percent consistent, his sporadic kick posts have Jimmy slowly approaching 1 million followers (he’s currently at 996,387). Since it would be a pain in the balls for you to search for all of Jimmy’s kicks, including the ones where he was “too high to remember to attach the picture,” we decided to compile all of his “Splash Pics” into one handy post. Check his fresh and his hilarious commentary from the twits after the jump….

Jim Jones has good taste. No need to hate on his style. I am 27 and i still rock New Era Baseball caps too. I actually collect them in accordance with my sneakers and outfit just like Jim. Lal and Mag should stop the hating….

AndreSwagassi August 26, 2009 at 9:11 pm

“jimmy you better learn how to talk to me”
mictyson59 August 26, 2009 at 10:36 pm
man what has this thing of ours come too. im hearin if they from the mall u shouldnt cop. whats wrong wit fitteds. this is the reason im puttin more money into vintage whips instead of kicks. if place of purchase and price is all that matter, then lets all go out and buy nothin but lanvins, ysl, and LV’s. dope is dope. after this mean november, im out of da shoe biz. yall can have it. suckas
ang xiao August 26, 2009 at 10:42 pm
wow, so many wonderful sneakers. i love the first one
AndreSwagassi August 26, 2009 at 10:44 pm
jimmy, you need to splash some water on your face & think about what you’re wearing
JUMPMAN17 August 27, 2009 at 3:04 am
yo jim jones kick games proppa but the thing is alot of them jointz came out a grip ago so he had plenty of time 2 accumulate all them shoes you kno but not hatin or anythin they tight i got like 5 or 8 pairs that he has
Neves O. Elbuod August 27, 2009 at 3:33 am
Jim got taste fasho…(all white Huarache Supreme Air Force Ones, Jordan Fusion IV’s -white/grey & blk/red, and Griffey’s with the matching hats i thought i was the only one that was that picky about my shit matching to the “T”) nothing but Nikes, thats whats up!
air max all day August 27, 2009 at 5:48 am
If you got an aston martin who cares what shoes you wear.
Drew August 27, 2009 at 8:42 am
I give him props for matchin up the kicks but to be honest I wouldn’t get fresh w/ a lot of them kicks. the true flights, uptempos, and fusions would never be on ma feet. However, NY niggaz go hard w/ Shox so I see y he had so many.. another thing.. y should he hurt his bank account by trynna cop the most exclusive expensive kicks?? half of these rappers get them handed to them. I’m glad Jim stayed humble and bought kicks that was actually out there, he was jus showin u how he killed them so hats off to him
foamposites-0r-die, lk rlly August 27, 2009 at 10:09 am
ewww, ima neva understand that new york style, its kinda silly, like half his shoes were like nike shox, shoe for running track, and those jordan fusion shits be lookn ard, but not all ovem, only thing i fuck wit jimmy is da halfcents and acourse u need sum nike airs, but where was the nike acg blk on blk, newby 992s, and 993s, and foamposite, look into it
Yung D August 27, 2009 at 12:27 pm
Nike shox is too fuckin ugly
john_boii August 27, 2009 at 1:53 pm
ay quit hatin on jimmy he doin in big to be frm new york nut here in atl i does it dha best!!!
bigg will August 27, 2009 at 3:05 pm
I fuk wit jim jones but nike shox. Come on man. U no better than that. That was the only wack kicks. The rest u can pass wit.
B-Boy August 27, 2009 at 8:24 pm
Jim gets a pass for the half-cents and some not all the Shox but i can feel him on some of them because those are like laz-boys for yah feet SSSOOOOOOOOOO comfortable but…fitted game is destroyed i seen most but still hot CWs
Frankie August 28, 2009 at 6:33 am
jimmy created swag, most of u mother fuckers coulnd’t get dressed with him in the mornings lol!
Incogni August 28, 2009 at 1:04 pm
Alot of his kicks and fitteds are fresh. I fuck with the Griffey Max’s and the OG Jordans. But Nike Shox and True Religions are stupid wack. Only greasy Middle Eastern/Asian club monkeys with mad hair gel rock Nike Shox w/True Religions. His style is aight at best. If I had dough like he has, I would be mad fresher than him.
rayfrred August 28, 2009 at 3:41 pm
His sneakers were lame. NOne of them were exclusive straight foot locker everyday ish shop at flight club since you ballin
the hats were serious and the jeans
Ill hurt your collection jim jones
splash or my like a trikle
DUKE August 29, 2009 at 1:19 pm

Levi Jr August 29, 2009 at 2:43 pm
Jimmy knows how to dress. i like his collection. pretty dope. lovin those 7’s and 12’s.
SUPERDUPER August 29, 2009 at 2:55 pm
WHO IN THE HELL WEARS FORCES ANYMORE??? and FUZIONS, they are like the ugly step children of J’s. Jimmy is super wack, like……. shox….. really
kevin August 30, 2009 at 8:21 am
Matching every color of your shoes to your hats and shirts doesn’t automatically make you fresh. Tone it down Jim, throw on some neutral colors cause it looks like your trying to hard. Sublety is the key. Some of the shoes were good, but shox are unforgivable. Ha ha jk.
dasone September 1, 2009 at 4:48 am
yo most ya niggas sound corny, ya sound like homo ass fashion police, fuckouta hea fam, niggas drinkin Haterade and eatin Hatechamacallit’s, cuz a cat is 30 he cant match fitteds and kicks? seriously, nigga if you hip hop you hip hop you dont stop dressin a certain way! like there is some invisible time line when you need to stop being hip hop, corny, and he rocks kicks he likes he aint no hypebeast, like there is some rule if you rock fusions or shox you aint official! who determines if something is played out??? AF1’s played out??? please nigga neva that, uptowns aint neva goin out! the person wearing the shit determines when something goes out of style not you Hatin ass wack niggas, that dont even rock your kicks the right way, STOP HATIN, STEP YA SHIT UP
eisfresh September 1, 2009 at 9:20 pm
i dont like dude’s music like that. in fact i think his personality is shitty also at times. but u cant front on his splash
Sneakrhed September 2, 2009 at 2:06 pm

mell September 4, 2009 at 3:51 am
damn im lookin at the comments and there are so many simply mind ppl out there it ridiculous fresh in fly are to different things when u break it down its clear to see that the mans a sneaker head and dont mind putting on nikes, Jordan, shox, what eva most u ppl out here buy dunks and all of a sudden is a sneaker head come on mannnnn give the man props where propz is due weather the sneakers old or not the man kick game is proper cuz he dont rock the sneakers u dont like that mean u got to hate on the man or cuz he look just as simple as half yall ppl out here and yall sneaker game is the same when he rap about all the money he got that me he aint got none cuz he aint got a pair of LV, Gucci’s… what stupid MF’s fail to realize when u become rich it dont matter if u living in a big home or a card board box what ever is comes out is for the general public that go’s for you, jim jones, your friend up the block, your moms and the dude that’s bangin her cause u get rich dont mean u cant wear what the public wear cause when u think about it u really dont have a choice cause he can afford LV don’t mean he has to blow his whole success on a man clothing that probably dont give two shits if he buys his clothes anyway but im pretty sure no one at the LV corporation buy or got a jim jones ablum
