Chris Brown Shares Sneaker Concepts For Custom Yeezys & Jordans

It should come as a surprise to absolutely nobody that Chris Brown is one of the biggest sneakerheads in the game. In the past, he’s shown off his car garage, which features a couple of flashy Lamborghinis surrounded by shelves of rare sneakers.

The number of kicks that Chris has stashed away is undetermined but his passion for footwear goes unmatched.

In addition to scoring on some of the most sought-after pairs of Air Jordans, Nikes, and more, Breezy has also sketched out his own custom pairs of shoes, which were unfortunately never given the green light. However, he felt as though he could no longer keep his designs to himself, sharing them on Instagram overnight.

“I figured I’d show u guys MY CONCEPTS for the Jordan’s I would’ve loved to create,” wrote Chris. “Just remember…. BRICK WALLS ARE PENETRABLE. EASY BREEZY’s, the GOATS, VIPER 3s.”

The first pair in the gallery are the Easy Breezys, which use the Nike Air Yeezy as a silhouette. The kicks are black, orange, and ice blue, placing the Black Pyramid logo on the back and featuring glow in the dark soles.

Then, we move on to The Goats, which superimposes an image of Michael Jordan on the toebox and side.

The Viper 3’s are Chris’ take on the Air Jordan 3, using yellow suede and a pixelated swoosh logo on the side.

Finally, the artist showed off his take on the Air Jordan 5, which has a 3M upper, light grey suede, and a translucent sole.

Clearly, Chris Brown has some great designs in his head for footwear. Do you think he should pursue a partnership with Nike or Jordan to try and get some of these manufactured and sold globally?

Kyle Ashen’s sun-drenched recollection with new release “That Local Girl”

Kyle Ashen’s latest release, “That Local Girl,” is a gorgeous trip down memory lane, a country single that explores that golden glow of memory, like flipping through old photographs touched by salt air and summer sunlight. It’s warm, cinematic, and deeply relatable, a song about the kind of love story that never quite goes away, even as time moves on.

“That Local Girl” is filled with imagery that quickly takes the listener into a world they can walk right into. You got a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl on a boardwalk street by the ocean, a souped-up truck driving through town, neon lights reflecting off the ocean breeze, and the electric innocence of young love burning in the background.

But under all that cutesy trapping is something more than that, longing. Some people, some places that leave permanent marks on Kyle Ashen and us know that. What’s so brilliant about this song is that it marries those two ideas, making love and hometown memory feel beautifully inseparable. Sometimes you miss a person. And with that person, you miss an entire version of life. “That Local Girl” is more than a country love song from Kyle Ashen. He is a living postcard from the past, sun-faded, bittersweet, and glowing with feeling. A reminder that summers pass by, but some memories stay with us forever.
