We're back! After a mini hiatus that wasn't really a hiatus, we are back to our regularly scheduled programming, and we have some great content to dive in to. We received a ton of messages in the last few weeks, so we spun a few of them and used them as bigger conversation pieces, we finally get to elaborate on a Thumbs up / Thumbs Down topic, and close out the episode with a discussion on fashion and sneaker trends.

First of all, thank you. This week we briefly recap the madness that was Shu-Haul 2, we talk about some of our favourite moments, and think about what's next for the event.
Following the recap, take a listen to the Sneaker Spectrum Panel Discussion from Shu-Haul; featuring CEO of Exclucity, Trent, Tong of Netmagnetism, your friends at Canada Got Sole and hosted by our dude Philly Sole Purpose. We dive deep into the current make-up of the sneaker game, and along the way cover the origins of our nicknames, the most we've paid for a shoe, and of course the dirty underworld of backdooring.

The crew has been hard at work preparing what will be our biggest venture to date; Shu-Haul 2, on July 27th. On this episode we break down every single little thing there is to know about the event; the merch, the perks of showing up, who else will be in the building - we cover it all. Before we get into that, we discuss the Toronto collector who spent a whopping one million dollars on sneakers, and what we'd use that money for instead. If you're coming to the event, remember... high five, low five, pull it away.

This week we are joined, once again, by friend of the show, and moderator of Shu-Haul's 'Sneaker Spectrum Panel Discussion', @SolePurpose. While we had him here, we thought there would be no better time to iron out the details of the panel; by discussing what we think we should talk about, what we think may be off limits, and how we think the whole thing will pan out. We also talk about Virgil's Instagram being hacked (so tragic), and we get into an in depth discussion about our favourite iced tea brands.

We have been anticipating reaching this episode number for about 67 weeks, and we had a lot of fun being immature while making as many inappropriate references as possible. Once we were through being nine-year-olds, we covered some Adidas news for a change, and did our best to fight back the tears as we cover this week's big story - Kawhi's departure from Toronto. In relation to the Raptors having to move on after losing their superstar, we speak about what next steps we'd like to see some of our favourite sneaker brands take moving forward. How we think they can stay relevant, how can they get to that next level, and what we'd like to see from them in the future.

This week we were joined by a very special guest, Trent - the founder and CEO of Canadian sneaker boutique, Exclucity. Hear the story of how Trent started his own sneaker store, what challenges he faces on a day-to-day basis, and how he sets his stores apart from the competition - and of course because we have a guest, that means the return of 21 Guestions.
Our friends at Exclucity were also kind enough to provide our listeners with a promo code to mark the collaborative episode, so be sure to use code CGS20 for 20% off on any regular priced items on shop.exclucitylife.com!

This week's episode of True to Size started on a sloppy note, and to be honest, that theme maintained itself through the entirely of the episode. We get a Fire Round question from a familiar face, and it inspired the main discussion this week. We got into the impact that our significant others have on our sneaker lives, if our wifey's are into the shoe game, and if we'd trust them to purchase us a shoe as a gift.

On this very special episode, we kick off the show by celebrating the 2019 NBA Champions - our Toronto Raptors. Staying on brand, we continue a very basketball-focused show with our friend Tim, who is one part semi-retired sneakerhead, one part basketball official. We talk hoops, his thoughts on officiating, and pick his brain about some common misconceptions about refereeing a basketball game. We then dive into his experiences with stepping away from the sneaker game - why he felt he had to take a step back, how he separated himself, and how it feels to liberate yourself of dozens of sneakers.

Since it's Father's Day weekend, we made this episode all about the daddies. Wether you're a sneaker dad, celebrating a father who taught you everything you know about kicks, or you're a single mother playing the part of both parents - this one is for you.
Of course, we kicked off the episode with some basketball banter before a couple of the biggest games in Toronto Raptors history, we recapped what you should know about Shu-Haul (so far), and concluded with some discussions about being a sneaker dad, what it'd be like to have a sneaker dad, and we got some tips from the fathers of CGS.

This week's episode of True to Size was absolutely packed with things to talk about; starting with a busy week of Toronto sneaker news, followed by a heavy week of happenings in our sneaker lives, and rounded out by some more details about Shu-Haul Two(Haul). We finished off the episode with a stroll down memory lane, and we told some of our favourite sneaker stories that make certain pairs all the more special to us.
