What and when did you get into sneaker collecting?

I got into the sneaker game when I was about 11-12 years old. It was DIPSET & my cousins who worked in a sneaker boutique (CNCPTS) .

What was the first pair in your collection and what made you get that pair?

The first pair of sneakers for me was the Gary Payton "Glove". It was given to me by my uncle. At the time I just started understanding "name brands sneakers and stuff.

What makes your sneaker collection unique?

It's a mix of a lot of dope brands. I value distinguished pairs over anything. And staples in each sneaker brand. I just enjoy getting what I really like & sneakers I know I'll be able to create some very dope outfits with.

Hype or history and why?

History every-time cause longevity is important. I've never been a fan of "hot pocket" fashion. I'm the type of person to go with originals most of the time unless I'm really impressed by a new silhouette with distinguishing colorways.

What is your grail sneaker and why?

Air Max 95 Atmos Animal. I remember 12+ years ago when it originally came out & I couldn't afford them. It always stuck in the back of my mind. That sneaker is me. Very versatile & goes with a lot.

What was the best release of last year and why?

I'm gonna have to go with Air Jordan OW 5 without question. Such a timeless silhouette & the 3% Virgil additions made it even more dope. Yellow sole is just amazing.

What was your last pickup?

Air Max 95 "De Lo Mio"

What release are you looking forward to the most this year and why?

Really looking forward to the Medium Curry Nike Air Dunk Lows. Such a beautiful sneaker to get a lot of use from. Can't go wrong with neutral colors.

What brands would you like to see collab this year?

BAPE & Carhartt collab would be fire.
