So when someone says, “This guy is an Icon, brand, or a legend,” not many people can be on the end of that sentence. I know one that could, Spike Lee!

He has influenced pop culture so much and even NYC as a whole. Valentine’s day is a special day for some, but this night was even more special. It was the “Ol School Sneaker Jam 15!”

From movers and shakers to some sick DJ skills, this event embodies how music, film, fashion and sports coincide perfectly with each other. As you walk through the door, you are welcomed by amazing paraphernalia from the legendary Spike Lee. Spike has worked with the best in his career. From Michael Jordan to Michael Jackson, don’t forget Kobe Bryant and Denzel! Despite all of that, this event was about the sneakers! Some call them Jordans others call them Jays. Our favorite were the XX3 Jordans. Also, we were working with one of our favorite spirit brands Avion!! #paleomargaritas!!

OK lets focus.

I am a Niche Parent & Network Influencer and served as an on-site social media correspondent at #SneakerJam15. Thanks to Pernod Ricard for sponsoring today’s message.”

This event took place in Brooklyn. The All-Star weekend featured events in different parts of New York City. I had the pleasure of meeting Robert E. Cornegy Jr. a city councilman the chairperson of the committee for small business. I asked him if he liked the weekend being spread out in two different Burroughs. He loves it. He said” I get to be a 7 foot ambassador for Brooklyn”. “This event brings awareness to small business (that otherwise would not get the publicity they are getting )now.” “Small business will earn from this weekend. We are not just what people see on tv. We have doctors, lawyers, and entrepreneurs.”

Yes He Does!!

We got to catch up with the artist Albe Back and asked him how he liked the event. “I love this event. I didn’t get to really experience All-Star weekend when it was here last time, but now its amazing.” When asked what can young adults do to be successful in arts and music he responded by saying “CREATE!” He kept saying create. He feels being creative is more than just saying you are its about being creative.

Walking around the event we were able to interact with more types of Iconic Jordan Brand shoes. We kept coming back to the Classic XX3. We love them. Nike sought out to make the best basketball shoe inspired by the game’s best player. I think they accomplished that goal. The shoes aren’t the same look and feel of normal Jordans, but their quality screams Jordan.

Game or no Game?

Well as Spike moved everyone to the back where he told us the Real party was, I stopped by the Avion bar to get a drink. I am a very picky drinker and I tend to follow paleo guidelines with my daily life. The great thing about Tequila its not that bad on the paleo diet. So I got some fresh lime and lemon juice and had it shaken with ice and Avion. It tasted amazing. As I took the first sip, one of my favorite songs came on: Gin and juice by Snoop Dogg. With the likes of Christina Milian and Gary Payton hanging out with Spike Lee the Ol School Sneaker Jam party was a success.
