When we arrived to work to day we were in for a surprise. There are already 5 people camping outside of the store to get the ?uestlove AF1's on Saturday. Two of the people even drove from San Antonio, TX. to get the first spot in line. The rest of the campers range from Houston to our home town of Lafayette. Grab a chair and come get in line! (oh yea that's a love seat in the front. haha)

P.S. We will give anyone in line a saved spot from 8pm to 6am Friday to go to the Curren$y show tonight.

Fly Society x Politics  Party is going down Thursday August 14th at Grant Street. Tickets avalible at the door. You already know how it will go down.

We sent DJ Gaudin out to San Fran. for a month to skate. I guess he's doing something out there becuase he was on Thrashers website today. Check out the video here.

Damn.. we all remember sitting down at the computer on July 18.. just coming in from sweating balls outside.. only to log into hypebeast to do our daily sneaker info thing.. to see the flyer of the ?uestlove Air Force 1.. Not thinking much about it.. just another AF1 right?.. HELL NO.. 5 days later they hit us with the pic.. and FUCK.. def one of the dopest AF1's done in a very long time (Huf AF1 still has my heart).. so if this AF1 release couldn�ft get any better.. Hypebeast releases a lil' more info about a "goldtoe" version only to release 25 in the mix of the so told "300" ?uestlove's total.. The lucky 25 that snag a goldtoe pair also get the regular pair.. and a free trip to The Roots show.. def the coolest shit Nike has done for a shoe release.. Politics is taking care of everyone that couldn't make the release is N.Y. and LA.. Aug 16.. doors open at 11.. 1st come 1st serve so a camp out is a must, 12 pair total, and you know I'm getting mine.. if you see me.. come say whats up.. and if you want to be lazy.. and wanna ebay a pair.. expect to pay about $700 to $1,000 for a regular pair.. and a nice smooth $2,500 for a goldtoe pair..

These are limited to get here quick. These are the same glasses that Jay Z has been rocking for the past 4 months. Can't stop the crooks

Fear and Loathing in New Orleans

The next Air Force 1 that’s part of the larger 1World Air Force 1 Influencer Pack will be a Nike and ?uestlove (The Roots) collaboration. One of the most talented musicians in the world was selected by Nike to be a part of this 1World Air Force 1 collaboration series of Air Force 1’s and the drummer has come up with a pretty crazy mixture of materials and colors. These shoes will be available at Politics on August 16th. These will be sure to sell out considering we will only get 12 pair and there isn't any other store from Houston to Atlanta that will get these.

Also check with us on August 8th for the olympics dunk pack. Accommodating the 2008 Olympics, Nike will release a special series of Dunks to represent each color on the Olympic Rings.

You can catch Curren$y live here in Lafayette, LA next month at the legedary Grant St. Dancehall. Mixtape # 4. Where the fuck are ya’ll ?? The truth is Spitta and the album shouldn’t be too far away. Fresh off a good look in XXL, one of the hottest indie MCs in the game. Peep the mixtape and as always hearing is believing. SPITTA !!!
