No!

Russell Simmons is a complete and utter WHORE for his Phat Pharm clothing and shoes.  He doesn't go to RESTAURANTS without bringing some of his own bling to spread around and advertise to the staff, the other patrons, people he passes by on the street, etc.

The man would not be seen wearing or delivering Nikes to anyone's doorstep, let alone paying to have a giant Nike delivered (although given the cat scale it could just be a regular human-sized Nike).

It should have been a Phat Pharm shoe. Onstad fucked up.


Apparently Simmons hates Nike, so it doesn't seem that unreasonable that he'd send one to Ray. I know that Onstad probably wasn't aware of this fact, but I guess it still kind of works anyhow. Also, Simmons doesn't care about who murdered Jam Master Jay.

I fear my reaction to this strip was "Meh."  Admittedly, any Achewood is better than no Achewood, but this one just didn't do much for me.  It would have been great as a breather in a stretch of outstanding strips, though.

I think it would have been funnier with Philippe.  As excited as he has been about shoes lately, he would have heard the THUMP, opened the door and just happily burst out, "Hooray!  Christmas in August!"

He would have then lept into the shoe and held the laces like he was driving it.  "BREEEP!  Officer Philippe!  Come in!  A person who was smoking did not stamp out the cigarette butt!  We need you right away!  BREEP!  This is Officer Philippe!  No tears, I'm on my way!"  

He then would have tugged back on the laces.  "SHOE ON!"
