The Laser Blue are not the only OG retro AM90 I was after this year. The Nike Air Max 90 Infrared is the ultimate classic OG colorway of this model. We all knew it was coming, and it’s finally here! I’ve also reviewed the 2010 retro of this shoe.

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 Air Force 1 Flax Review
Similar to the AF1 Crafts, these right here are another premium Air Force 1 release! The Nike Air Force 1 Flax comes out pretty much every year in low, mid and high variations. To me, these are an unofficial send-up to the classic wheat Timberland boots.

The NY to Paris were my last pair of 1s, but I’m finally back in the 1s game with these Air Jordan 1 High OG Dark Mocha. The shoes get their name from the colorway and according to some resemble the Travis Scott Jordan 1 highs.
