    Don't know if any of you are sneaker heads like myself, but I just found these super fresh remakes of some old school waffle nikes.......

    Seems weird to me to have the insole all designed up like that. Unless you're in the habit of taking out the insoles of your shoes, you'd never see Paul bunyan Portland sign, etc.

    It's a sneaker culture thing. Any type of special edition kicks have cool artwork inside as well as outside.

    I have like 5 friends who work for Nike, and they spend the majority of the money they make on Nike products, mostly shoes. Pretty good business plan with that employee store. I don't understand the fascination with shoes, but my friends do get the dopest ones.

    I don't understand it either, but I used to be big in it til the wife and kids came along....... now if one of my Nike or adidas peeps don't hook me up, I stay away.

    Do you prefer Nike over Adidas? My friends won't even wear a single adidas product, even if that means no Blazers gear.

    Doesn't matter to me, but if I like it I'll wear it. My collection is probably 70% Nike, 25% Adidas and then some ransoms like Puma or converse. Here's just a few..... ImageUploadedByTapatalk1366328432.036120.jpg

    I prefer Nike design over Adidas (though there's exceptions). But, I think Adidas is more comfortable.

    I really regret not getting the Adidas Crazy 1 Rose City Edition. They were down to like 110 bucks too.

    I had a pair of the Sheed Patent leather carolinas, but I gave them away to one of the guys in Blazer Fans LA. A bit tight on me (size 12)

    Kobes are nice, but I’d never wear them. Because Kobe.
