Wale x Sneaker Bistro Event

Wale x Sneaker Bistro EventMany of you have been envious (you won’t admit but you have) of DC rapper Wale lately seeing that he’s been rocking the “Copper” Nike Foamposite three months before it releases. Well, if you are in the New York area on Monday, you may get the chance to see him wearing these sneakers up, close and personal.

With that said, Wale will be making an in-store appearance at Sneaker Bistro on Monday, November 9th, 2009 at 7PM EST. Attendees will have to pay $15 to get into this event; yet it will be well worth the money. The aforementioned $15 will give you the chance to meet Wale and receive an autographed copy of his album dubbed Attention Deficit. You will also be automatically entered into a drawing to win a DJ Hero package. Click here to view the flyer in its entirety.
