You don't have to be a hip-hop head to know who DJ Clark Kent is. The Nike "112" collection? His idea. The "Black Friday" Air Force 1s from a couple years back? Yup. The "James Dean" LeBron 8s? Of course. And then there are his legendary One-A-Days. So with no further ado, check out DJ Clark Kent's Top 10 Sneakers of 2012. And always stay fresh.
10. Packer Shoes x Reebok Question
Clark says: "This is simple: Best-looking basketball shoe that Reebok has ever made. A very welcome retro. Plus A.I. was the TRUTH."
9. Nike Air Penny V
Clark says: "I gotta say, it's pretty challenging to make a NEW silhouette to represent a line that had a great run. Especially when the sneaker community loves Penny shoes. Nike Footwear Designer Marc Dolce KILLED it with these."
8. Bape x UNDFTD x adidas Consortium Pack
Clark says: "The colorway, materials, and quality... All dope. I'm sure in the 'Hype' world, the Bape x UNDFTD part matters, but to me... no!! A dope pack of shoes is a dope pack of shoes. These are them..
7. Frank The Butcher x New Balance "Liberty, Freedom & Justice" Pack
Clark says: "New Balance is releasing some great shoes, but, this is the BEST pack this year. It's a pure tragedy that these were not released. I never even looked at 1600s until I saw these in person. [Note to New Balance: PLEASE fix the situation and release these shoes. Or, sample up some size 13s.. For real!!]"
6. Nike KD IV "Galaxy"
Clark says: "DOPE SHOE... Insane colorway and details."
5. KicksHI x Converse All Star Chuck Taylor "Tiger Camo"
Clark says: "Last year KicksHI did WORK with their first tiger camo Chuck. I didn't think it could happen again, but, BOOM!! [Note: I always respected Chucks but last years KicksHI made me want to wear them. And, so it continues!!]"
4. Nike Air Foamposite One "Galaxy"
Clark says: "They were incredible to look at. They hype for these shoes caused widespread chaos. And all of this without a rapper attached to them. Hmmm."
3. Nike LeBron X
Clark says: "Design sick. Comfort dope. Colorways crazy. Exactly what the NBA's No. 1 guy deserves. Hey, Jason Petrie, another home run!! [Next year, Brand Jordan is going to have to do a better job for the new MVP: Carmelo Anthony.. I'm just sayin'.]"
2. Supreme x Nike Air Force 1
Clark says: "Supreme executed these shoes flawlessly. The perfect set of shoes, at the perfect moment. Just in time for the 30th birthday of the BEST sneaker ever created."
1. Nike Lunar Flyknit Trainer "HTM"
Clark says: "Most comfortable sneaker I have ever tried on. Perfect."
