YouTube sensation Jimi Jackson doing another Australian tour, but this time around it will be MASSIVE! Last time Jimi Jackson was in Australia was in 2017 for his “Mama We Made It” tour. Since then alot has happened to our boy Jimi. Now his a father of two beautiful children, son Cairo and daughter Zaria to his beautiful partner Lana. It’s been a sharp learning curve for our boy to adjust with the family lifestyle.

It’s More Than Just Sneakers Adelaide 2019 Recap

0

First stop of the “It’s More Than Just Sneakers” Australian Lifestyle Tour 2019 was Adelaide, the City of Churches. We’ve held our event in Adelaide for the third time and it keeps growing every year. We are so blessed to the amount of community support we receive when we hold our event in the city of Adelaide.

Here is some feedback from our friends about our event:

Anna Mindis @annabanana – “I thought the event this year was bigger than last year and there was always people walking around checking out all the vendors. The layout of the event was amazing and worked great for both vendors and the public. The music as always is everyone’s delight, venue supplied drinks and food which all together the day was really good.”

Kenny Ng @_mello.k – “There were some good deals on the day and the DJ’s were a nice touch. The bar really helps people to hang around with mates for a few beers.”

Anton Porter @antonporter – “I really enjoyed the day, it’s about getting the Adelaide street wear and sneaker community together. The venue is perfect, drinks and food available, city central easily accessible, what more can you want. Can’t wait until next year.”

Disney and FOX Merger Official. Deal Worth Over $71 Billion

0

It’s been over a year since rumors of Disney looking at acquiring 20th Century FOX. Finally the day has come to officially close the deal worth over $71 Billion to acquire one of the most influential entertainment houses to bring us so much enjoyment over the years.

Now Disney has a heavier arsenal to attach to the ever growing world of entertainment they already own. What does this mean for some of the major money makers for FOX such as Avatar, The Simpsons, Die Hard, Alien just to name a few. 

Will this mean reboots? The effects of the change may not be evident for years to come but a very exciting change to see what comes of it. 

What we are most excited about are the additions of the X-Men, Fantastic Four, and of course Deadpool back with its Marvel family. We have seen what Marvel entertainment and Disney have done so far but the sky’s the limit with what they can do with these great landmark additions.

Think about this for a second.

Disney now has Pixar, Marvel and Lucasfilm and with the addition of FOX. Let that sink in.

Pac Heat 16

0

This past weekend ushered in Pac Heat 16 – Aotearoa’s longest running sneaker and lifestyle event.

Little Easy played host to the largest turnout to date, decimating all prior numbers for attendees, exhibitors, buyers, and sellers.

All ages and tastes were catered for within the sneaker community, and with the addition of vintage clothing, hype tings, and lifestyle collectibles added into the mix – demand was at a high and the cash exchange was flowing.

On feet flexing was at max level throughout the day with rare and hyped pairs being rocked which was super dope to see.

At wrap up there were ear to ear smiles by everyone who attended with the resonating question being asked as to when the next event was scheduled for?

Good times for all involved, and the wrap up of another successful event for the history books! If you missed out on this event – we’ll be doing it all again in August 2019.

Make sure you follow these accounts on Instagram for details as they come to hand @pac.heat @solemerchants @solecentralnz

Massive shout outs to those that made the day what it was: The Pac Heat Crew, Sole Merchants, Sole Central NZ and Little Easy.

Special thank you @DTxDT

The Kicks Stand’s Weekly Hit List #6

0

“I missed out on the original release of the 25th Anniversary Koi. And with the insane rising prices of the OGs, I had to acquire this pair when the opportunity arose.
Despite the squished heel counter, I love the color blocking and the alternate AFew/ Beams branding on each pair. The fish scale detail on the tiger stripes is a final nice touch.”
