Shine

----props to My Fam at Kicks/HI for always supporting the crew and always bringing that fresh shit to this little island of ours.

the infamous "Aloha Dunk" was given some dap on one of the 50 Best dunks of all time from Complex Magazine. It's a very good look!


12. Nike Dunk Low “Aloha” (Kicks Hawaii)
YEAR OF RELEASE: 2004
• "The Kicks/Hi Dunk was part of the Jesse Leyva early days (same w/the Wu-Tang and Pharrell Dunks), part of a shop series designed to build up the Nike brand amongst the cool kids. The Hawaiian-based retailer, and homie Ian Ginoza included design cues that were, as you can see, Hawaiian-inspired. In addition to having “ALOHA” on the heel, and “HAWAII” on the tounge, the middle of the upper features a Hawaiian-styled weave made out of bamboo called “Lauhala.”
