The Air Jordan 11 Concord is the other original pair of XI’s I own. By original, I mean this pair actually came out in 1995-1996.

So, what’s the deal with the sneaker collection (Seinfeld Voice)? Right around 2008, I’d just lost a lot of weight and was in need of an entirely new wardrobe. I was in the process of buying newer, smaller clothes and the time came for a new pair of shoes. Rather than pick some ordinary pair like I normally would, I opted for a more interesting and unique looking pair. The response from others was so strong and positive that I decided to look more into the different kinds of cool sneakers and discovered that collecting sneakers is similar to collecting comics, baseball cards, or any other of the numerous hobbies I had when I was a kid! I’ve been into sneakers ever since – to the extent that I even got an article written about me in the paper! I’ve also been collector of the month in Solecollector Magazine (issue #47)!
I built up a lot of my collection looking for deals on slept-on pairs! I also post deals I find on this very site when I have time.
As for the photography aspect, check out any Sneaker related websites (there are many), and you will typically find posts filled with awesome, artsy footwear shots. I like learning about cameras and taking interesting shots, and it turns out there are actually sites online where you can get recognized for both your collection and photography skills at the same time! You can check out some of my most recent shots below. If you’re curious, I currently shoot with a Nikon D3100 (Amazon link) and mostly use a 50mm lens.
My eBay account is where I list my current sneakers available for sale (if I happen to be selling any).
Here are some quick links to different categories of sneakers:
Nike Zoom Tre AD McFly Review
I mostly cover retros on this blog, but Nike is still a performance footwear brand. The Nike Zoom Tre AD McFly is an example of one of Nike SB’s many attempts at creating a technical skate shoe.

A while back, I wrote a short article about the second version of these dunks. However, I completely forgot to do one on the original Nike Dunk High SB Send Help, which is funny because these are a far superior sneaker!

Saucony collab alert! These Saucony Grid 9000 Premier Street Sweets are based on street vendor candy. The elastic laces represent taffy and the color scheme represents the candy wrapper.

Since there’s now a 2015 retro of the Air Jordan VII Bordeaux, I figured it was time to pull out this 2011 version.

The Nike Air Force 1 White Silver “3M” is for me basically an upgrade over a pair of standard white on white uptowns. I’m not typically a fan of all white kicks, but I instantly wanted these when they dropped.
