Wtf, I thought the Jeremy Scott Forums were a draw? Really wanted the black ones but my size 10 sold out right at 9am :smh:

In 1996 Biggie Was Scheduled To Do A Photoshoot With Shawn Mortensen. During That Shoot Biggie Took Interest In Shawn’s Jacket (Which Just So Happened To Be A BAPE Jacket) And Asked If He Could Wear It For A Shot. The Jacket Wasn’t Big Enough To Actually Fit Biggie, So He Had Thrown It Over His Shoulders Instead Of Attempting To Squeeze Into It. Afterwards Biggie Had Asked Shawn Who Designed The Jacket Because He Really Liked It And Wanted One For Himself. Shawn Then Explained That It Was A BAPE Jacket Designed By His Friend Nigo In Japan. After Obtaining His Contact From Shawn, Biggie Had His Team Reach Out To Nigo To Purchase Some BAPE. Nigo Was So Excited To Have Biggie In His Products That He Offered To Make Custom 1 Of 1 Pieces For Him Due To The Biggest Size That BAPE Produced At The Time Being Xtra Large (Which Was Too Small For Biggie). Unfortunately By The Time The Custom Pieces Were Ready And Shipped To New York, Biggie Had Passed Away And Was Unable To Receive Them.

Damn.
 
I really thought that the Adidas Top Ten Hi ESPN shoes would be more popular than they are.

...guess the look just doesn’t do it for most people.
