"Mars" IV Re-release on Pick Your Shoes
If you didn’t already know, the Jordan IV is right at the top of my list of favorite shoes of all time. So, when I heard that Pick Your Shoes was going to be re-releasing the “Mars” IV’s this Saturday, I was excited to say the least. I even put all my Black Friday pickups on hold in anticipation of snagging another pair of Mars’ for around retail, or so I thought. I...

Quality Time: Thanksgiving Special
I am officially in the last few weeks of my college life. It’s crunch time. And although it’s exciting, it’s also very hectic, and finding time to enjoy a nice homecooked meal has been tough lately. So, when the time is available, I try to take advantage of it. Take the time to prepare something delicious, sit down with someone special, and enjoy the quality of the time...

Nike SB Dunk Low "Yellow Curb"
You may have noticed that I try really hard not to add to the hype of certain shoes by posting up the same detailed pictures you’ve seen on 10 other sites, but I had to do a post for these Dunk’s. These are definitely one of my favorite SB releases of the year. The elephant print adds just enough to the shoe so it’s not the typical colorblocking, and the Midnight...

Cap'n Crunch's Crunch Berries Retro
I recently picked these up at the market, I don’t even really like Cap’n Crunch, but I had to have them. It made me realize how good marketing is universal, whether it’s for cereal or sneakers. Companies have been using the concept of “Retro” products for years. They’re appealing because they can remind us of our childhood or make us feel like we’re a...

Lotus of Siam, Las Vegas
Pad Thai
Lotus of Siam is one of the most popular Thai food spots in town, and has even been called “the single best Thai restaurant in North America” by Gourmet Magazine. Needless to say, I had to put this title to the test.
I’ve been on the hunt for quality Thai food in Las Vegas since I got here, and most places have come up short. Lotus of Siam was great compared to...

Rise & Shine: A Steak and Egg Place, Las Vegas
The Complete 16oz. Porterhouse T-Bone Steak Breakfast
Steak and eggs go together like Carne Asada and Fries. And similarly, I could eat them during anytime of the day too. I’m sure that most would agree that there are few things more satisfying than a good steak, throw some eggs into the mix and you have a match made in heaven. For anyone that appreciates a good steak and eggs, the...

Shoe Review: Nike LunarFly+ Breathe
Words and Image by CAPTAIN CRUNCH.
Spotted these at Finishline, the colorway really did it for me, so I went ahead and grabbed the last pair at the store. The “Lunar” sole on these has easily made these the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever owned. Looking forward to picking up more. Actually went on a field trip to UCLA in these, two laps around the campus and my feet were...

Album Review: Kid Cudi - Man On The Moon 2: The...
Chances are if you liked the A Kid Named Cudi Mixtape and Man On The Moon:The End of Day, you’re going to buy this album regardless, but if you’re still on the fence about Cudi, or just want a good feel of the new album, continue reading for the full review.
The album is not really anything new for Cudi. You can expect the same signature Emo-Hip-Hop style and content from his first...

Nike Air Max 1 - Medium Grey
(via sole collector)
While most people are going crazy over the Air Max 1’s with the “Wallabee” sole, I’ve been patiently waiting for these to drop. Somewhat reminiscent to the Air Max 1 “Corks” I have stashed away somewhere, these have to be one of my favorites of the newer AM1 releases. Grey suede, gum sole, and a variation of the typical mesh that I...

California Shabu-Shabu, Costa Mesa
Anyone that has eaten Shabu Shabu before knows that there are a few key requirements that make a good Shabu Shabu place. One is the quality of the meat. You NEVER want to eat at a place with sketchy meat. Another is the portion size for the price you pay. There’s nothing worse than getting less than what you pay for. And the last and most important component to good Shabu Shabu is the...
