These Lance Armstrong inspired sneakers on the cover above are dope.
There's magazines and then there's magazines for the aficionado, that's comprehensive and full of detail for the like minded individuals like City and Myself. I must say I was impressed with Issue 15 of Sneaker Freaker. I didn't put the issue down all night. In between commercials of Law & Order on USA, I looked at dope kicks and read some cool commentary. There's few magazines that I take time to read like that (GQ, Antenna, occasional Sole Collectors, Frank 151-Chapter 36, oohh Nudies and I'm not talking bout the jeans...lol I really enjoyed the artwork) But back to Sneaker Freaker the High resolution pictures were great, there's so many different flavors It's like the Baskin Robbins of Kicks, If your a true sneaker head your bound to find something you will gladly rock, I know I found several pieces in this one issue. I always loved 991s by New Balance when I seen the color way in here, I said to myself I got to have 'em. I also took pleasure of reading about the Luxury kicks in here as well, no not the Nike Air Yeezy's although I wouldn't mind a pair in the collection of never rocked. Yeah there's certain kicks that I own and don't wear cause I Love 'em so much. I developed a pretty sick habit, but It's normal to sneaker people. During my tenure at Footlocker years ago, If there was a shoe that I really was big on I would purchase two pairs one to wear and the other to remain Deadstock. But back to the Lux kicks, I Love Louis Vuitton products. From there bags to card holders. The sneakers That Kanye West worked on with Marc Jacobs are awesome, you just got to see them, The 'Mr. Hudson', The Jasper', and 'the Don' I really like the all red color to them. The Gucci kicks are cool too, The Nike's inspired by them are definitely one's that a lot of people would want to pick up. The piece about Mache "The Poughkeepsie painter" was pretty cool too. I know the recession is kicking are butts for some of us, you just got the make the best of It. Bad things don't last forever. Soon we'll all be able to buy sneakers with Force/ like Air again. Don't mind me I'm a DJ, not a rapper. Even If you don't have the purchasing power to get what you want just picking up issues of Sneaker Freaker will keep you vigilant on the Sneaker game. Until your ready to do your thing. Be sure to grab the latest copy.
