New Year, New Wishes

December 30, 2008 by hunter.

Time to wake up from your food coma, take out the Christmas tree, and look ahead to the new year. You might not have gotten exactly what you wanted this year (still no two front teeth), but there is another, brand-spanking new year right around the corner. So what is on my wish list for 2009, you ask? Well…

Nike Marty McFly’s
And not the weak, close-but-no-cigar Nike Hyperdunks. I’m talking the real-deal, straight outta Back to the Future 2 McFly’s. Hell, even a fan was able to make a McFly better than Nike’s release. Now I was gonna tell you to log onto McFly2015 and sign their petition, but their site seems to have gone kaput. Well, while we wait for a true McFly release you can always pick up an authentic Delorean. Can you imagine stepping out of your shining Delorean with a fresh pair of McFly’s on your feet? Jumping Gigawatts!!!

So the legendary Nike Pigeon SB Dunks live on with the release of the New Balance Pigeons. And this time the release seems to have been riot-free! Awesome, but where’s my pair? It must’ve gotten lost in the mail (I forgive you this time, New Balance). If you missed out on the release (like me) you still have some hope in getting a pair…Hope that your several-hundred-dollar pair from eBay isn’t a total fake. That’s ok- I’ll just have to wait for the Puma Pigeons to release. That’s right, I am starting that rumor right now. Get on it, Puma! Your sneaker lineup is sorely lacking in the pigeon department!

World Peace
Ok, so technically it’s not a sneaker, but a little world peace would go a long way right now. Who knows- it might even inspire some awesome sneaker designs? And if world peace is too much to ask, then just send us some awesome 2009 sneaker releases.

Well, that’s what’s on my wishlist for 2009. Let me know what you’re wishing for- drop me an email. Have a terrific New Year’s Eve and stay safe- no spilling champagne on your sneakers!
