Now I am not a sneak freak by any stretch of the imagination. I am far more likely to gravitate towards my favorite pair of chloe platforms or salivate over a new pair of louboutins…but deep down I am completely and totally enthralled by sneaker culture.What is it about sneakers?

First of all they seem to be the common denominator in our society. Who doesn’t wear or hasn’t worn at some point of their life, that favorite pair of Chuck Taylors? And then there is the exact opposite force working in their favor-the element of personalization and potential for uniqueness that you can’t get in your favorite designer duds.

Thousands of people embark on sneaker conventions. Passionate for that pair of SB Dunks with that perfect day-glo yellow swoosh, or limited edition ANYTHINGS. The consummate “cool kids” footwear choice. So cool that you don’t have to try. You just ARE. Sneakers will tell your story.

Oh to join the cool kids…
