Oh, oh – if Shawn Kemp didn’t turn into an overweight crack-head, the Reebok Kamikaze would be go-crazy on Ebay.

I knew I was addicted to sneakers when I found myself renting a 12 x 12 storage room (climate controlled, of course) to store my neverending accumulation of sneakers in. I had to create a legend to show where each pair is located. Floor to ceiling being about full in that one, I’m as I type, contemplating a second 12 x 12. Sick? U b the judge.

And we would be remiss if we also didn’t celebrate the fact that Dominique “the Human Highlight Film” Wilkins once had a signature line of Brooks, which I believe a certain “Viper” also once owned.

If Dominique had won that infamous Dunk contest between him and Mike in ‘88, who knows? Maybe they’d be constantly reissuing ‘88 Brooks “Dominiques” instead of Jordan IIIs….

Or maybe not.

Great Piece!

I really like how you used “words” to get “inside” the mind of a sneakerpimp…

I feel obligated, however, to mention Etonics (the “forgotten” sneakers) and how they’ve never gotten enough credit in sneaker history. They were way ahead of their time technology-wise, used forward-thinking materials and unveiled a slew of brilliant designs that appealed to both 1. Math nerds and 2. Rockers/Metalheads.
