Best of 2009: DJ Clark Kent's Top 10 Sneakers

Best of 2009: DJ Clark Kent's Top 10 Sneakers

BEST_SNEAKERS_AIRJORDAN-TRUEBLUEIII

#4: Air Jordan III "True Blue"
CK SAYS: "I think I was happiest about these re-releasing because I didn't want to wear my originals. I love the True Blues, best off color Jordan ever. I'm a black/white/red Jordan guy, but when I saw these, I had to get them. The weird thing is, in London, you can find these on closeout. Crazy, but that's just the cultural difference I guess. But these shoes are special and you have to treat them with respect. I have a shirt made to rock with these: it reads: 'All night I perform like Mike' in the 'True Blue' colorway. Right under the words it has the whole victory verse."

    Solid list. Surprised VIIs were that high and no Max Griffeys...but good reasoning. You GOTTA replace the pic of those yellowed ass Space Jams though...

    It's true that the picture of his dunks don't do it justice, the leather on them are of beautiful quality, soft to the touch and the 3x dry material is awesome and gives the shoe a good stiffness, not commonly found on other shoes.

    Solid Top 10 choices. Reading the commentary from Mr. Kent hurt my brain...

    Buns. The True Blues were the best on this list. Parra AM1's and clot AF1's were definitely solid and should've been ranked higher. However, the un-gucci's listed before the gucci sb's, or even at all(shameless self promo)is pretty weak. The alife Dunk Hi's, which weren't listed, came out first, used better material and had sticky gum outsoles. Busted.

    This was a good list. i'm surprised the 2009 was that high tho. And Clark, how come my Wet Floor Sign's aren't up here?? I guess they were #11.

    Show us a picture of the shirt DJCK! True Blues are one of the sickest pair of J's next to the infrared 6's and the space jams

    CK list has the best list thus far in my opinion. I don't understand why the griffeys aren't up here. 2 OG Colorways released. i thought that sneaker had potential to even be the best of 09'.
