We recently saw a post on Sneaker Fairy’s Facebook page of these amazing looking tribute sneakers to the late great Phife Dawg of A Tribe Called Quest. FETTi D’Bias AKA Sneaker Fairy took photos of the custom kicks at the Tribe Called Quest mural in Queens which is located on the back of Nu Clear Dry Cleaners on Linden Boulevard and 192nd Street where the group filmed portions of their 1991 video for “Check The Rhime.”
“IT’S #ThrowbackThursday!
WHEN Phife Dawg OF A Tribe Called Quest PASSED EARLIER THIS YEAR, I WANTED TO MAKE A SPECIAL PAIR IN HIS HONOR..USING AN ALL BLACK/GUM SOLE New Balance 574, I ADDED THE ICONIC Low End Theory STRIPING TO THE UPPER ALONG WITH THE INFAMOUS CHANT “You on point Phife..All the time Tip” TO THE FRONT TOE AREA & BACK HEEL CREATING THIS BEAUTIFUL PAIR” Sneakerfairy.com
