Its gotta be the Shoes

For those of you that know me and for the ones that don't. I LOVE SNEAKERS!! Some may call it an obsession but I like to think of it as a hobby. Not the type of hobby that you infest your life with the same item, let it collect dust in your room/house and can only touch it with white gloves. This one actually gets put into use and allows me to express myself in different ways. I remember going with my parents to wait in line for the latest Jordans. As time went on, so did my interest in other brands. I think that having my own money and means of transportation helped, but thats a whole other story. It used to be Nike or nothing, but brands like Vans, Converse, DC, Creative Recreation, New Balance the list can go on and on, started experimenting with materials and colors. They opened up a whole new playing field, allowing themselves to emerge from the shadow of the corporate giant NIKE had become. Do I still go out and buy what interest me? Yes... I'm I doing it because its popularity is rising faster than a teenager popping some Viagra? No... I do it because its what I like. The materials, colors and stories behind the fabrication of these sneakers just seem to amaze me. Some people like flowers others like coins, everyone has the right to enjoy what gauges there interest. Hate or Love it.. I think its here to stay. Enjoy!!
