Last night, Chi McBride was a surprise guest on the sneaker radio show OSD (Obsessive Sneaker Disorder) where he dropped some news that was an even bigger surprise.
Mark Smith, seasoned designer, 1/3rd of H-T-M, and the man behind the "laser beam" at Nike will be joining forces with Jordan Brand as the new Global Creative Director of JB. Many Jordan heads have questioned the direction that the brand has been heading in the past few years, but look for things to change. Times are getting interesting in Beaverton and it will be nice to see what direction Mark Smith leads Jordan Brand in.
I know that there are a lot of people who have been critical of Gentry recently. Soon you will have a new name to curse when things don't goyour way. I am excited to see where Mark Smith takes the brand.
Edit: Got my Mark's mixed up...Mark Parker, current CEO, is the M in HTM
