Sneaker Heaven

I'm a bit of a shoe fanatic. Clarification. Make that a sneaker fanatic. Some may call them tennis shoes. Or if you are a 13 year old, I think the "politically correct" term is kicks


So I was browsing through the magazine section at B & N and I came upon a magazine which was literally made for me...


Yes, that is correct
An entire magazine dedicated to the beloved sneaker.

As I was looking through various archives and links to this bodaciously rad site, I came upon this webpage.

First, I'm not exactly sure I would pay quite that much for a pair of custom made kicks. Maybe that doesn't make me quite the fanatic I thought I was...and then my fears were confirmed when I scrolled down and saw this picture:

and read this text....

dedicated showroom and 500

Yes, as in 500 pairs of sneakers. 

Say what? It makes my collection of sneakers look pretty small.

I guess I have a little work to do in terms of catching up to this guy....

In the words of the little engine that could....
"I think I can, I think I can, I think I can"
