Im not even mad. God has a bigger plan and I know this is bigger than anything that we loss. What happen to George Floyd should have never happen. Praying for better days for all of us and especially for the black community. They need our support more than ever.
We’ve been hit in the past, we just never put it out there. Insurance gave us 20% of what we really loss. So if y’all keep doing this thinking insurance will cover everything. You’re wrong. Picture losing $1 million and insurance ends up giving you $200K after 6 months.
trust me, I was face to face with these looters at 3AM and they weren’t doing all this stuff for the right reasons. I pray no one else gets hurt and makes it back home to their families 🙏🏽
Marcus Jordan met at a hotel everyday for 3-4 days with known resellers: Benjamin Kickz, Zadeh Kicks, and Sheikh’s Closet, loading vans full with pairs of Trophy Room x Nike Air Jordan 1 Highs that he sold to them for $1,250-$1,500 dollars a pair.

We were one of the first shops to take our kobes off the wall and stopped all sales. We closed ALL of our shops the day of Kobes passing. He meant so much to everyone who works at the shops. In no way are we profiting from a man we love, respect and appreciate so much.
Nipsey came into our shop 8 years ago. We gave him a RIF “Good People hoodie and when we asked if we can get a pic of him out front, he put our hoodie on and said “let’s do it”. He even rocked it in a music video. He genuinely loved helping people 😔
You showed the world that the biggest holes and the biggest bumps in life never stopped you but only made you stronger. You made people believe they can dig deeper to keep going and become great!

China quarantined for 5 weeks straight with only 1 person leaving in a day for essentials. Coronavirus plummeted after that, now they are all back to normal over there!
people would always tell me, stop posting this, stop posting that, post it on your personal. Keep it professional. In my head, we didn't get to being in biz for 18 years by being professional, we did it by keeping it real smh
I flew out to the motherland for the first time 2 months before RIF opened in 2006 to bury my pops. That's 16 hours away in 🇵🇭. My dream was to open a shoe store there so I can visit him a couple times a year. I open that shoe 5 years ago and I get to visit him 3x a year 🙏🏾
met a guy at RIF who had dreams of becoming a pro boxer, didn’t have enough $ for training camp/nutrition, so asked if we would front it all and would pay us back 100% after he won. Paid us back every single time and even fought for the belt

when they said "just focus on selling shoes", stop wasting your time making this or that. Cats will put you in a box and tell you your limits. That's when you double down and go all in
