Jet Setting: Vacation Recap
Just before the holidays, I set out for a quick trip to escape this Winter weather and head towards warmer climates. Coincidentally, I spent a lot of time in airports, and for some people this may be an inconvenience, but I found a Food With Sole way to make the best out of it. The following is a quick photo recap of my vacation (just the important stuff). Enjoy!

Redman - Pancake & Syrup Mixtape
With artists cranking out Mixtapes as often as new dance moves, it’s easy for some to get overlooked. This Redman mixtape actually released on Dec. 2, but I only recently had a chance to give it a listen. Pancake & Syrup is a clear reminder of how Redman has stayed in the game for so long. CONSISTENCY. By no means is he the deepest MC, but you can’t deny that he’s good at...

Nike SB Eric Koston 1 Teaser
I’ve always been a basketball player, and I never got into skateboarding as a kid, but I’ve always admired it from afar. And Eric Koston has always been at the top of my list of skaters to watch, so I was excited to say the least when he signed with Nike SB. With the release of his first signature model with Nike SB coming later this year, Koston has began to drop some sneak peaks of...

Stewarts Coffee Shop, Anaheim CA
I love finding hidden gems like this in each city I visit. Much thanks to Neil for introducing me to this place. Stewart’s is home to possibly the best breakfast deals outside of Vegas. But it’s not only the great deals that amazes me, it’s the quality of the food for the price you pay. If you enjoy a good hearty breakfast but don’t want to break your bank, this is the...

Finals Weak
If you’re in college, or have ever been in college, I’m sure the picture above may seem eerily familiar. The piles of cluttered books and papers strewn across your floor, mixed with old laundry and your week’s sneaker rotation. Thoughts of upcoming Jordan release dates clouded in your mind alongside forgotten math equations. You know the feeling, it’s finals week.

Downgrade: The Other Side Of The Hybrid
A while back, I did a post highlighting a few of Nike’s recent upgraded classics and my appreciation for them. However, there’s the other side of the hybrid. Like an evil twin brother, hybrids like this are the complete opposite of what I described in my previous post. Adding an autoclave sole to the Air Trainer SC II, and removing the strap has absolutely no performance benefit. I...

Kaizen Sushi, Las Vegas
It’s almost sad to say that I only discovered Kaizen Sushi this year. Which is even more sad considering that it’s down the street from school and in the same plaza as Undefeated. I COULD have been eating here for years! But I guess it’s better late than never.
If you couldn’t tell from my ranting, I have come to really enjoy this place. Not only is their sushi on...

Reebok Pump Omni Lite "MA-1" Available Now
There has been A LOT of MA-1, or Military inspired, sneaker releases lately, but this one has definitely been over looked. Both colorways are solid, but how can you go wrong with an all black upper and white midsole. The ripstop material, orange lining and accents are all pretty standard with MA-1 inspired shoes. Both colorways are available now on PYS for $99.99.

Dave White - "Cheeseburger"
Although Dave White may be better known for his paintings of sneakers, he has recently ventured into a genre that is close to our hearts here at Food With Sole. This “Cheeseburger” painting is his first of a series of iconic food inspired paintings. It was recently featured at the launch of “Project On Creativity” at the New Museum of Contemporary Art in New York. Hit...
