In this feature we bring you images, info and opinions on some products that you can find in stores right now. Unless we think that something's totally fucking stupid and we feel like we really have to tell you about how stupid it is, nothing that appears here will ever get a bad review. In short: this is the best stuff.

  Adidas Tim O'Connor
 
 

Did you listen to the Mumble Minutes podcast interview that we did with our pal Timmy? The one where he talks about his dogs, not doing acid, Ryan Sheckler, actually shitting in his pants while in China and his pro model Adidas shoe that was coming out back in January? Well, as we were working on that interview we thought to get the wheels in motion to get a pair of that shoe that he was talking about, that they did that big roast to-do of him at ASR as a debut for, so that we could feature them in a Buyers Blips when they released. As a nice little tie-in to the podcast. You know, like good little journalists might do.

Well, it's almost May now and if I was a little more up front like Tim I might be calling somebody out for dropping the ball and delaying this feature almost beyond the point that it's even relevant anymore. But I'm not. So I won't.

I'll just tell you that I really like these kicks and the jacket/sweatshirt thing that matches them. I'll tell you that Tim is a righteous dude and that it's cool to see him getting a shoe so he can feed those dogs of his (they're named No Comment and Diesel in case you didn't listen to the aforementioned podcast). I'll also tell you that one holiday season when Tim lived in California I went to his house on Christmas day and his now-wife had got him a t-shirt made that said FREELANCE GYNECOLOGIST on it and that I took a photo of him wearing it and smiling, just so you know that when he said that thing about dipping his dingaling in a bucket of bleach in his podcast, he never did that, because a freelance gynecologist would never do something like that, because they are required to have a firm grasp not only on the femal anatomy, but also the male. So you know.
