As far as scandals go, the one brewing over at The Whittaker group is by far the most interesting as James Whitner has been named in a $32 Million Reselling Allegation. While he is currently not the person under arrest his brands Social Status and A Ma Maniere have been roped into this allegation as a supposed vehicle for money laundering. It will be interesting to see how this case develops and if any of their partners/supporters react to this.
Joe Freshgood's may have come through with a 90th minute screamer of an entry for shoe of the year with the 1998 Pack inspired by the movie 'Belly' which came out in 1998. And Iconix have just acquired a majority stake in Hoodrich founded by Birmingham based Jay Williams in a reported '8-9 figure deal'. Bolu, Eman and Michael also give their opinion on the recently released New Balance x Patta 991 v2's and if there was a head to head between JFG's 1998 x New Balance pack and Samuel Ross's ACW x Nike TN's who would win?

Welcome to today's episode of TheStockroom!
Today we're discussing developments within the footwear and fashion space as Puma have turned to ASAP Rocky to be the Creative Director of Puma x F1. We also spoke about branding within the sports space and how players like Folarin Balogun and Erling Haaland are being used as totems in a similar manner to David Beckham.
We also spoke about Farfetch's recent acquisition of Yoox Net A Porter and how that was allowed despite it looking like Farfetch attempting to monopolise the Department Store market.
Finally, we concluded with Nike suing New Balance and Skechers with the claims that they are allegedly using Nike's already established flyknit technology to develop some of their silhouettes. As this case is still in it's early phases it will be interesting to see how this develops over time.

Welcome to Episode 59 of TheStockroom Podcast featuring SNKRS Live's very own, Will Stowe!
We had the opportunity to sit and discuss Will's rise through the ranks at Nike and how he carved out his own lane at the company during the pandemic as he established himself as key conversationalist within the trainer scene hosting conversations with the likes of Tinker Hatfield, Matthew Williams, Samuel Ross, Clint 419 and Gabriel Moses just to name a few. And more importantly why these conversations are important to the industry.
We also spoke on the recent Nike SNKRS showcase which showed an array of general releases and shoes coming from the vault being released in 2024. With the rise of leaks and how they have affected roll-outs, it seems that Nike are taking matters into their own hands and releasing info on their terms!
We also discuss colour designers, Will's most important Nike shoe in his collection and some of his stylistic inspirations and shoes he enjoyed growing up.

Welcome to Episode 58 of TheStockroom Podcast featuring Grime OG and a friend of the show Manga St Hilare.
We spoke to Manga about his journey into Grime and how he ended up joining Roll Deep and how grime and the culture surrounding it influenced his sound and his sense of fashion as well as some funny stories along the way! We also delved into some of the shoes that stood out to him growing up and how he got into building his trainer collection.
Community is central to grime and you can see that through their boiler room sets and live shows. Off the back of this idea of community and engagement, we discussed the importance of relatable and thoughtful merch when it comes to artists and why so many artists miss the mark.
