Gourmet Footwear Wants to Give You a Pair of Kicks, Seriously (Enter & Win!) Posted by Ru Porter on 06/18/13 | Filed under Style, Contests, Sneakers, Gourmet

I wouldn’t be a legit sneaker writer if I couldn’t lace my readers with fresh gear every now and again, so to celebrate Young Jeezy’s latest endeavor with Gourmet Footwear – an independent lifestyle company out of Los Angeles, I’m giving away two pairs of kicks to some lucky sneakerheads in the Refined Hype community!

It’s no secret that the Snowman has a shoe fetish (the Atlanta-based artist spoke candidly about owning close to 9000 pairs of sneakers with SneakerWatch.com last year), so this new endorsement shouldn’t come as a surprise to many. The recently signed creative brand and marketing partnership includes exclusive co-branded digital content, social media initiatives, and creative involvement from Jeezy, by creating a platform to blend the very distinct worlds of footwear, fashion, and music to provide a comprehensive lifestyle experience that both Gourmet and Mr. Jenkins have incorporated into their individual brands.



While there isn’t any info regarding Jay’s personal designs for Gourmet Footwear, it’s clear that they have quite a few stand-out items in their 2013 Summer Collection. The line features about four different silhouettes -- from low-tops to mid-tops – constructed in various materials such as alligator skin (my favorite), full-grain Italian cactus leather and suede. So whether you’re searching for a performance model, or some casual streetwear for your next excursion, the good people at Gourmet Footwear have something that will suit your personal tastes.



To enter the exclusive contest, just follow these two simple steps:

1) Follow @GourmetFootwear.
2) leave a comment below stating your favorite pair of Gourmet shoes (past or present), and why you deserve to win along with your Twitter name.

Two winners will be chosen on Friday, June 28, and given a promo code, which will be used to order 1 pair of kicks of your choice at GourmetFootwear.com. Good luck!

Nathan Update: Y'all realize Ru just hooked up RefinedHype Nation with a free pair of dope sneakers, right? Yeah, it's kind of a big deal. Salute that woman.
