A lot of people in today's culture don't really have a true love for what they are doing. They buy and wear items for a variety of reasons, I've posted this stuff before.
Every once in a while a story comes along that shows what TRUE sneaker collecting is.
I never knew this guy, I wish I had.

Busy, busy, busy....
I haven't posted anything in a while because I've been busy on a couple different "projects".
The first is a 1/32 scale A6M2 Zero model from Tamiya. If you know me, you know that my other passion in life is model building.
I built models as a kid and started again as an adult to help relieve stress from work. I've gotten pretty decent at it. I've been considering starting a blog about scale models.
The second "project" I've been working on is finding a job. I've sold off most of my collection and I'm ready to start the new one. Only problem is there ain't no money for sneakers.
That sucks!!!
The models I work on I've been sitting on for a number of years, so I don't have to buy anything. I made enough to get buy from selling the old collection. But now, I'm getting bored. My bedroom is almost completely empty, there are almost no sneakers anywhere.
I know it might sound like a stupid reason to go back to work, but I do have other reasons.
Bob, I still owe you $40, I haven't forgotten.
Seems to be a fulltime job looking for a fulltime job now a days. I wish I could get paid for it.

WOW....
I don't usually do this, but I had to post this-
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270604754422&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT
They are not PE's. Nike made most of their shoes in half sizes up to 13.5 back then and you could regularly get them at most retail stores. Penny wore a size 14.
This is a GREAT old school find. Unfortunately, I can't afford them right now. If I could I would end up with them. I hope someone that is reading this ends up with them.
One of the few shoes I'd like to see retroed some day.
