While I haven’t fully embraced Adidas runners yet, I still pick up shoes from the brand. My most recent acquisition are these Adidas Busenitz Scarlet White, which stood out to me based on price and colorway.

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:

Mismatched kicks? Normally I’d associate that with a kid’s shoe, but the Vans Era Pro 50th Anniversary accomplishes it in a more “adult” way.

I used to have other pairs of Stan Smiths, but wound up selling them. When I saw these Adidas Stan Smith Ys (as in Yohji Yamamoto’s Y’s), I had to cop.

If you know Nike trainers, you probably know about the Hot Lava ATCII. When it comes to non-OG colorways though, the Air Tech Challenge II Kumquat is my personal favorite.

I’ve reviewed one other pair of 580s on this channel. It’s not my favorite NB model, but colorways like the New Balance 580 Neon Pack keep me checking.

I’m probably dooming this blog post to no readers as I’m not sure anyone else is checking for these. Regardless, these Vans Authentics Hamptons caught my eye and since they can be had for cheap, why not?
