Message from the EZLN regarding recent gossip and rumours. Full text below:

P.S. THAT WARNS. – We were already going to tell you what this whole thing is about, but reading, seeing and listening to the string of atrocities that the «specialists» in everything and knowledgeable in nothing say and write (about supposed withdrawals, dismantlements, advances of organized crime and «returns to the past” – Coletos had to be the majority -), we decided rather to let them continue burping.

With their deep analysis and well-founded research, the zapatologists state: “an example of the Zapatista defeat is the loss of indigenous identity: young indigenous people already wear cowboy boots, instead of walking barefoot or in huaraches. And they get ready to flirt, new pants and shirt – or ironed! -, instead of wearing blanket pants and buying their wives according to indigenous uses and customs. And they ride motorcycles, instead of carrying their women coletas bosses on their backs. The only thing left is for young indigenous women to wear pants or, what a horror!, play soccer and drive vehicles, instead of serving the coleta ladies. They even dare to dance cumbias and ska instead of Bolonchon, and sing rap and hiphop instead of psalms and odes to the landowners. And, as another sign of the loss of their indigenous identity, they even pretend the absurdity of being subcommanders, commanders, and women commanders! And pretend to govern themselves. And they don’t ask permission to be however they want to be. And they travel and get to know other lands. And they work and earn their pay without a ‘tienda de raya’. And they do not have them in concentration camps, like in Gaza, so that they do not pick up “Sinaloa” ideas, that is, foreign ones – because the mayo-yoreme in Sinaloa, are all about narcocorridos, my man –. Because of Zapatismo, we anthropologists will no longer have any jobs. What a shame. And all because they did not follow the revolutionary vanguard of the proletariat or MORENA, same thing. A serious mistake of Zapatismo not to obey us. Because today, the indigenous people no longer look down when you bump into them. They look at you with irreverence, with defiance, with rage, as if we were the intruders and not them, as if we were the criminals and not them. Before, only the Zapatistas did that, now any ‘Chamulita’ stands up to you. And, as Marxism-Leninism-Stalinism-Maoism-Trotskyism-all-isms say, any indigenous person who is not like the anthropology manual says is a narco.”

We know for sure that, later, when the full meaning of this stage is known, they will have the minimum of honesty to say and publish: “We do not have the slightest idea of what they did, what they do or what they will do. The best thing would have been to ask the Zapatistas and not the anti-Zapatistas.” Or are they not honest?

Tell those “journalists” that it is always better, although more uncomfortable and not profitable, to interview the actors, not the spectators, ‘villa melones’ and lazy paramilitaries. Investigative journalism is a professional job that often requires risks and discomfort. But, don’t worry, we understand that everyone looks for a living the best way they can.

So, as a greeting to the “zapatologists”, we continue with these P.S. made with love:

P.S. OF THE CAPTAINTY OF PUERTO DE MONTAÑA. – We had prepared a series of clever phrases to make fun of the political class as a whole (government and opposition), but now we think that there is no point, since each flock has its shepherd or each shepherd has its flock. Or does someone naively believe that the matter is between two shepherdesses?

Our silence in these years was not, nor is, a sign of respect or endorsement of anything, but rather that we strive to see further and seek what everyone, men, women and ‘otroas’, is looking for: a way out of the nightmare. While you learn, from subsequent writings, what we have been doing, perhaps you will understand that our attention has been elsewhere.

But we understand that more than one suffers from what we Zapatistas call a “theoretical torticollis” which is caused by looking up, too much, and affects good judgment, common sense, decency and honesty – in addition to being addictive and creating chronic dependency. We understand the limitations of your horizons of analysis. One thing is the desk, the academy, the journalistic column, the commissioned report, the government position, the revolutionary coffee gossip or social networks, and another thing is reality.

The latter not only does not pay, but it also charges very expensively. Shakira has already said it: ‘la realidad factura’ (reality costs), and it does not include VAT. Sorry.

We will not make firewood out of the fallen trees up there. Reality, that implacable fool, will do its thing and the last splinters will be those that organized crime takes from the “cobro de piso” in the proposals of each of them.

Some masturbate with the ‘mañanera’ (morning presidential conference). Others with destruction, deaths, murders, rapes, disappearances, hunger, war, diseases, pain and sorrow. None of them have a viable and serious political proposal, they just entertain… until they don’t anymore.

And, since we are talking about autoeroticism: given the choice between Bertha and Claudia, well, Wendy.

-*-

Okay, cheers and now what am I going to do with my costume to dance corridos tumbados? “Compa, que le parece esa gorra?”… What? That’s not the way it goes? Don’t I tell you? It is the loss of indigenous identity. I hope anthropologists arrive soon to save us.

From the mountains of the mexican southeast.

P.S. «CONTEXTUAL». – Televisa being Televisa and anthropologists being anthropologists:

Nike x Patta Running Team Collection

Nike and Patta join forces once again to introduce the Nike x Patta Running Team capsule, a fusion of style, performance, and inclusivity. More than just apparel and footwear, this collaboration embodies the spirit of camaraderie, culture, and achievement.

The collection reflects the unique identities of both Nike and Patta, blending performance running with elevated lifestyle pieces. It serves as a tribute to the shared pursuit of greatness and inspires runners of all ages and backgrounds to carve their place in the running community.

At its core, the Patta Running Team capsule celebrates diversity and encourages athletes with different backgrounds and aspirations to unite as one. Founded by Patta cofounder Edson Sabajo in Amsterdam in 2010, the team is driven by a passion for exploration, connection, and freedom. Running, they believe, transcends borders, offering a pathway to new experiences and connections.

The collection features an array of standout pieces, including leggings crafted from lenticular three-color material and a heavyweight wool and leather varsity jacket adorned with nods to Patta Running Team achievements. Track suits, race suits, tops, shorts, and a running vest round out the offerings, all designed with premium reflective graphics and the iconic Patta Panther running mascot.

The campaign is fronted by Nike runner Sifan Hassan, a two-time gold medalist for the Netherlands, symbolizing strength and resilience in the face of adversity.

A highlight of the collection is the updated Air Huarache hybrid sneaker, available in three colorways. Combining a classic Huarache Plus upper with a Pegasus sole, this sneaker features premium leather overlays, a mesh underlay with bootie construction, and a closure secured by nylon webbing. Each pair comes with a Patta custom towel, adding a touch of luxury to the packaging.

The Nike x Patta Running Team capsule will be available at patta.nl and in Patta stores starting April 26, with a wider release on SNKRS and in select Nike partner stores on May 2.

Jhoan Durán #CleatWatch, 2024 Edition

The tracker returns for a second straight year after a delayed start due to the oblique strain, because Duran is still nice to look at and his cleats are still fire. Post is updated with every appearance and I've been adding reference pictures as they become available. This has taken on the vibes of the orchestra on the Titanic but I am nothing if not committed to the bit.

(2023 edition here)

(All image credit once again to the Twins photography team on gettyimages)

Duran continues to use the same model cleat he's used his entire major league career, the Nike Alpha Huarache Elite 3 Mid, according to the very helpful website whatproswear.com. The Nike Huarache line is very popular among baseball players, and Duran in particular seems to prefer the mid-height model with its high ankle strap.

As I noted last year, players seem to use older or backup gear during spring training before switching to their new custom stuff when the season starts. Poring through photos from Duran's abbreviated spring training, I noticed the northwoods and DR flag cleats from last year, plus the red palm tree cleats seen above, which is probably a spring training-specific design.

4/30/24: Duran's road choice this year is an updated edition of his bicolor cleats but with the colors flipped, navy on the left and red on the right. We'll call them bicolor 2.0. Featuring "Durantula" written across both straps, his logo on the right ankle, his #59 on the left ankle, "God" written on the right toe, and the grayscale portrait on the left toe. He wears these with both the away navy and gray pinstripe uniforms.

The artist Duran works with posts some nice closeup pictures of the shoes themselves on Instagram, so that'll do for now in lieu of any good action shots.

Seen on: 4/30, 5/10, 5/17, 5/19, 5/22, 6/2, 6/8, 6/9, 6/21, 6/26, 6/28, 6/30, 7/8, 7/10, 7/13, 7/14, 7/31, 8/5, 8/15, 8/16, 8/18, 9/2, 9/5, 9/7, 9/17, 9/18, 9/20

(Detail on the bicolor 2.0 cleats)

5/3/24: My only complaint about Duran's original flamethrower cleats were that they weren't custom enough, and man did he deliver this year with the flamethrower 2.0. This year he wears them with the home white, home navy, and cream Twin Cities uniforms. The red-yellow flame gradient on the toes is back, as is the solid red heel, but the negative space in between is now black with white sparkles to represent the crowd's phone flashlights during his walkout entrance.

The really fun part is the velocities of his five fastest pitches from last year: "104.4mph" on the left heel, "104.5mph" and "104.8mph" on the right, and "104.6mph" on each ankle strap. Like, what a flex. I love it.

Seen on: 5/3, 5/4, 5/6, 5/8, 5/24, 5/25, 5/27, 5/28, 5/30, 6/12, 6/14*, 6/18, 6/19, 7/2, 7/23

(Detail on the flamethrower 2.0 cleats)

5/12/24: Custom Mother's Day cleats! Most players sport custom pink gear in addition to the modified caps each Mother's Day. Duran went with solid hot pink cleats with red and navy flower patterns, and six different women's names in light pink script on the heels and ankle straps. Wife, presumably mother, and other relatives and/or in-laws, probably?

That's all for now, though Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com literally just wrote a piece on the flamethrower 2.0 cleats, which motivated me to get this writeup out. He also mentions custom cleats for the City Connects (revealed June 10th, debuting June 14th, as announced by the Twins), which is 👀. More to come!

6/14/24: As I was hoping, Duran pitched on City Connect debut night, though he had his flamethrower 2.0 cleats here. Lots of Twins players had custom cleats tonight, including Correa, SWR, and Buxton, but probably not everyone's have come in yet.

6/16/24: Custom Father's Day cleats, paired with the City Connects. These are solid light blue with baseball-themed graphic patterns: baseballs, gloves, hot dogs, popcorn, and "Dad" with heart outlines. Like the Mother's Day cleats, there are seven men's names written on them, this time in white on the outer front part. Brother, presumably father, and other friends/relatives?

Duran's kids also threw out the first pitch to him in the most adorable ceremonial first pitch I've ever seen.

7/7/24: New cleats! I'll call these the cherry bomb cleats because they're all-red, there's fire, and it's that time of year. The white Nike logo across the ankle strap has flame effects, the white inside swoosh logo has a paint drip effect, and his #59 is in white on the heel. He's worn them with the cream Twin Cities alts, the home navy (warmed up but didn't enter the game), and now the home white, so they seem to be a straight replacement for the flamethrower 2.0's.

Seen on: 7/7, 7/24, 8/3, 8/9, 8/14, 8/24, 8/25, 8/27, 9/1, 9/11

7/20/24: We have the City Connect cleats! These dropped on Instagram on June 20th, a month before Duran actually pitched in another City Connect game. They're another entry in Duran's fashionable asymmetry collection, with a yellow base and a two-toned blue ankle strap and heel segment reminiscent of a sky-water horizon line.

The left cleat has two-toned blue flames rising along both sides, with "10,000 Lakes" in white on the outside. The right cleat has a detailed drawing of Goku in Super Saiyan Blue mode on the outside, because many baseball players are massive weebs. I mean, hey, Carlos Estevez already does the Kamehameha pose after every save, so why not Goku shoes for Duran.

Seen on: 7/20, 8/30

Bonus: Also recently dropped on Instagram are closeups of several of last year's cleats, including the first gen flamethrower and bicolor, as well as Mother's Day and Father's Day cleats that we did not see in a game last year.

            LOVE + FEAR TOUR: OLIMA & WESTWOOD

In the first chapter of our “Love + Fear” Tour fashion story, we looked at the impeccable designs LA-based Maggie Barry created for our girl’s fourth promotional tour. This time, we’re gonna take a look at the all the super fun corset costumes Marina wore!

We’re starting off strong with a custom set by OLIMA. The detailed corset top and matching silky shorts were custom-made by the Los Angeles-based costume designer in various colors and prints. The first one in plain teal!

All of Marina’s jewelry here is signed by Sylvia Toledano. She wore the Petite Candy hoops in gold brass with turquoise, turquoise verte, cornaline, yellow onyx, amethyst, died ruby and moonstone...

...the Fall/Winter 2019 Lee long necklace with multicolored stones which she wrapped twice around her neck...

...and the Byzantine cuff with green turquoise, dried ruby, turquoise, amethyst, cornaline, green onyx, tiger eye, yellow onyx, black onyx and calcedoine.

Her shoes, which match her co-ord perfectly, are Nike’s Air Max 1 Ultra Moire women’s sneakers in white leather and teal suede.

For many other tour dates, Marina opted for a pink version of the same ensemble! This one features some ruching along the sides of the corset and a subtle fringe trim along the hem of her shorts.

You should instantly recognize these stunners by now. These pink Jelly hoops belong to the “Loucite” collection of Alison Lou!

Our girl also added on some golden accessories from Lilith by Sita. First up, the Sita snake thin choker in brass.

Not to forget, her Sita gold-plated brass snake charm and chain belt!

Marina loves being comfortable on stage! So a pair of the Nike Huarache sneakers in full white completed the look.

The cutest corset ever is this white & blue silk one that features a printed photo of Marina’s two fur kittens Mavis and Jupiter! She also wore some high-waisted lace-up silk shorts.

For some other tour dates, Marina opted for this rich purple silk co-ord set with green paintbrush stroke-esque bits...

...which she matched with the Tuleste chartreuse marabou pom-pom dangle earrings.

For her show in Austin (TX), Marina debuted a white silk corset with coral & gold abstract jacquard front, and high-waisted mini skirt with two slits.

She accessorized with her beloved Chanel gold-tone metal diamond-shaped textured CC logo clip earrings…

...and the gold sunburst logo necklace, another vintage treasure from the French maison. Also, the aforementioned Lilith by Sita choker.

One of the most iconic looks from her tour is the Vivienne Westwood Spring/Summer 1988 “Pagan I” collection boned silk corset featuring the iconic pink teddy bear. 

Her billowy silk ruffle shorts are custom-made by OLIMA.

The second Vivienne Westwood silk corset comes from the Fall/Winter 1992 “Always on Camera” collection and features a collie print with 3D bow at the front. It was sourced at Paparazzi 2000 Vintage.

The legendary Nike Tech Fleece

The Nike tech fleece is a staple of sportswear. Its my personal favourite piece of clothing without a doubt. Its comfortable, flexible, made of great material and overall looks great in almost every colourway.

Since its release in 2013 the Nike Tech Fleece has taken over the sportswear industry. It's no surprise that athletes everywhere are wearing them and even football clubs are having their own custom editions made. I personally have 4 pairs of Nike Tech tracksuits and they are fit for just about any occasion any time any place (except for weddings and funerals of course). Let's take a look into some of them.

CHELSEA 2023 

I want to give a stage to the beauty that is the Chelsea 2023 Nike tech fleece. This is possibly the best tech fleece ever created. The colourway is perfect and matches perfectly with their Third Kit this season. This is a 10/10.

LIVERPOOL 2022

Another masterpiece in my collection, this liverpool tech fleece is simple but very VERY effective. The red logo and accents pop beautifully on the black! solid 9/10

JA MORANT

Ja Morant is the king of the tech fleece so I have to put him up here with the football clubs. Ja has worn just about every colourway of the Nike Tech and he pulls it off everytime. The fact that he was able to find shoes to go perfectly with the green and white combo in the Huarache Le 'Stussy's explains it all. Ja is a nike athlete and next up I want to see a Custom Ja Morant Tech Fleece. Nike, please JUST DO IT!!!
