We're BACK back after a long break, but we're making up for it by calling in the cavalry with our first guest in several months! We're joined this week by Jonathan Kim, who's experience with sneaker-related PR makes for some interesting conversation. Before diving into that we discuss Virgil's activity on a friend of the show's Instagram post, and review some recent pick-ups after our three-week hiatus. To close the show, Jon drops some gems about what brands will look for when dishing out brand deals, some do's and don'ts when it comes to trying to get seeded, and some of the coolest things he was apart of as part of the Foot Locker Canada team.

The crew is back and we've got another super fun episode for you all this week! We're kicking things off by getting back to our regularly scheduled programming during the fire round, and following it up with a discussion about Nike's 2021 Q1 earnings report. Next, we reminisce way back to our school days and talk about our favourite test formats. Finally, we put our doctor hats on, and prescribe sneakers to people in some hypothetical scenarios.

The. Gang. Is. Back! Yes that's right, back like we never left, the crew is here on our ones (threes?) to bring y'all another banger of an episode. First off, we start by discussion what sneakers look better in person, and after that we cover a team favourite - auction news! Then we move on to a semi-inappropriate discussion about which colour would smell the best, if colours had smells, and read off some DM's from the listeners about the pack vs. set vs. collection debate. Finally, we close things out with an updated 'sode on the state of women's exclusive sneakers. We look at where we've come from, where we are now, and where they need to go.

The squad is back and apparently on 1/3 of the group is familiar with televised darts. Once we all get on the same page with dart references, we jump into a fire round about underrated Air Maxes, before covering news about Jordan Brand's newest signing - who doesn't really feel all that new. Our main discussion sees one of our more heated debates ever; as we try to dissect what's a pack, what's a collection, and what's a set... Spoiler alert - we still have no idea.

The gang is back for another episode featuring only us. We're slowing getting the crew back in one place, but in true Canada Got Sole fashion, we forgot to make sure we all had microphones; which lead to some interesting seating arrangements. Once we get situated, we begin to run over a range of topics including the Trophy Room x Jordan Brand saga, some of our favourite things about the Fall season approaching, and do our (now weekly) roof rack check-in. Finally, we discuss brands being unable to keep their own product release dates, and what could be done to fix that. Are release dates a thing of the past? Could pre-orders make a come back?

A mid-week drop usually means something special, and this week we're bringing you a follow-up interview with the GM of StockX Canada, and fellow sneakerdad - Jimmy OffShore. Alvin gets the scoop on how business has been going since officially opening shop in Canada ten short months ago, as well as some insight on how Canadian Sneakerheads like to spend their money.

Summer vacation is over (again) and we're back with another episode featuring the gang and the gang only! We missed y'all, but we're a little rusty, so bare with us! We kick it off with a talk about some summer hits, followed by news of one of the NFL's biggest stars getting his own signature sneaker. After that we rap about using dark mode on our mobile devices, and close the episode catching up! We all had a busy couple weeks, so we share our news, pick-ups, and stories - as well as look forward to what we want to wear as autumn approaches.

*Warning. We're grumpy old sneaker heads, don't take this personally*
We are back again! Summer vacations are coming fast and furious, and we did nothing last year, so you can't really blame us for wanting to take some weeks off and spend some time outside, right? Anyways, we've got lots to catch up on, including some huge news about an acquisition by Foot Locker Corp., as well as an NSR question that has us realizing just how un-athletic we really are. There's a reason we invited Uncle Scott on the program, and that's cause we're letting our grumpy old sneaker head-isms shine through, and talking about our sneaker pet peeves that make us feel cranky and washed up. Will Alvin swear more or less than 15 times? Will Sean's heart rate pass 200 bpm? Listen in to find out!

It had been too long since we were joined by our unofficial fourth member, so we hit our homie's line and Phil is here! Although he never needs a reason to stop by, this wasn't an accident; as we wanted our resident basketball expert to come thru and talk NBA Finals and signature sneakers with us. We cover everything from championship meal choices, to favourite fruits, before we dive into famous (and infamous) sneaker legacies. Does winning a 'chip help with a shoe's legacy? Which signature athlete us up next? Who's the greatest signature athlete without a ring?

After another week off for summer vacation, the team is back with a banger of an episode! We are finally joined by our homie, Luke - better known as Coffee and Kicks - who we've been trying to get on the show for a hot minute. With Luke in tow, we run over a busy couple weeks of pick-ups, as well as show love to a local athlete who just secured the bag with Jordan Brand. Luke is our first guest in over a month, so it was refreshing to play a round of 21 Guestions before learning more about his sneaker story during his Soleography. We close the show with a chat about his sneaker interests, his highly curated Instagram, and find out what makes a good coffee.
