#1 What’s the origin of your passion for sneakers and when was it born?
Honestly I don't remember the exact moment in which I fall for sneakers, but probably it happened when I get my first money thanks to my first job (house painter) that helped me to realize my dreams. I remember for sure that the first sneaker I bought with my own money was a white leather Nike Cortez as the one Mitch wore in Paid in Full.
#2 What’s your favorite sneaker brand?
I will always admire Visvim aka Nakamura, but I have to mention Nike, adidas and thinking about my youth also Reebok, in my garage I still have my beloved Allen Iverson's I3.
#3 What’s your dream sneaker? Imagine you can create the perfect collaboration.
If I only had decision-making power: adidas x Nike.
#4 What’s your favorite emergent sneaker brand?
Ian Connor / revenge x storm.
