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 likes to group their performance-oriented running kicks into segments such as “Supportive Comfort”. The Lunartempo falls under “Fast-Paced Comfort” due to the soft Lunarlon cushioning, Flymesh upper (like the Zoom Elite 8) and basic waffle sole.

Penny Hardaway sported this blacked-out Nike Air Max Penny All-Star for the 1996 all star game, helping the Eastern conference to a win. These have Penny line’s details such as the crackle on the swoosh, the Cent logo in the back and Penny’s signature on the insole

The Nike KD VII Flight came out alongside a pair of Lebrons and Kobes along with some clothing as part of a “Flight Pack”. Nike’s website claims that the red and grey colorway is based off of Kevin Durant’s ability to control a game.

Looking very similar to the “Emerald” colorway of the OG Air Force 180 hightops, these Nike Air Command Force Hyper Jade definitely bring the old school “huge bball kick” vibe.
