Hopes were high for the Nike Dunk High SB Send Help 2 after the success of the black box Send Help release. Unfortunately for Nike and designer Todd Bratrud, these weren’t nearly as popular as expected and went on heavy discount everywhere. However, sometimes the shoes that are not a big splash initially wind up going for big bucks later – life is all about irony!

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 released a shield pack with a few different models in it for winter 2014. Obviously, I had to grab the Nike Dunk High SB Shield – although it was worth it to wait until they hit outlets. Frankly I’m surprised these didn’t sell better seeing as the shoe itself is extremely dope.
