DJ Khaled’s Sneaker Closet

If your wildest dream is to spend a night in DJ Khaled’s sneaker closet…congratulations, you can now book a night thanks to his new collab with Airbnb. I get it sort of, DJ Khaled has a Jordan partnership, he has a lot of sneakers and a nice room to store them in 👏

That being said, I don't think it's SUCH a nice sneaker storage room that I'd spend the money to sleep a night in there. I understand why Khaled did the partnership, and I don't fault Airbnb for trying something outside of the box, but frankly I don't really know who the target demographic for this collab is...

Also I can't help but wonder, will the replica closet be featuring a matching collection of replicas? Like if the whole point is to spend the evening surrounded by Khaled’s “legendary” collection, are they going to ship all the shoes out of Khaled's Miami estate and place them in a replica closet? I mean, that sounds like an extremely expensive endeavor that I doubt Khaled would be down for 😬

So, I'm guessing the shoes in the Airbnb are somehow replacements. On the bright side, the rental is only $11 a night (a nod to Khaled’s shoe size). The booking went live yesterday at 2PM - I personally didn't enter, did you?

Orange Lobster Release Date

After much fanfare and leaked photos, the Orange Lobsters are dropping at Concepts this coming Friday, December 2nd. The OG lobsters dropped back in 2008, and since then we’ve gotten a blue pair, a yellow pair, a purple pair and most recently a green pair 🦞

Back in the day I really wanted the red pair and I never got them. They’re worth thousands of dollars now, kind of a bummer. The other pairs have been extremely limited and all command a hefty resale fee. I expect the same will be true about these Orange Lobsters unfortunately 😏

If you take an L on the Concepts drop you can also try again on the SNKRS app a few days later. But if yesterday's CPFM drop and the Lost & Found SNKRS release are any indication, I won't have much luck on that platform either 🤕
