As the sneaker universe contracts and fans become clones who find safety in rocking the same sneakers and calling that style, in my mind there exists sneaker enthusiasts on an alternate plane who feel like fresh is a matter of having something other people haven’t seen and can’t name. On this plane, maybe two other people in the room are wearing the same pair, and when those two people catch a glimpse of each other, the subtle head nod is given and using telepathy, the words “I see you,” are heard. In some alternate universe “fresh” really means “Finding Rare and Equally Stylish Heads” and knowing that you won’t be laughed at for not wearing the “drop of the week”. Until that universe filters into our world, I’m delivering you shoes that are currently in stock that capture the color of the hottest shoe of the weekend.
