Kickin it in Red

To mark the 5th anniversary of the Sully Wong SWJ Series, the brand is launching the SWJ 5 MID. The new model follows on the original boxer boot design of the SWJ, which took inspiration from one of the most prolific champion boxer of his time, Jack Johnson. Hence the J in the SWJ titling. The updated silhouette on the SWJ5 feels more modern – sleeker (losing the top cap and heel cap). The model comes in white, black and red.  Go for the red. If you haven’t figured it out by now, through reading this blog or by seeing every fashion forward hip hop artist wearing them –  every man should own a pair of red sneakers. This is the upgraded premium version. Available mid February, but make sure you buy yours before they sell out (and they will). $279

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
