How long have you been collecting sneakers and how many do you have? Since 07 and a little over 100 pairs.
Top five sneakers of all-time: In no particular order: The AJ1, The Air Yeezy, Unkle Dunkle Dunk, Foamposite One, and Nike Flom dunk.
What sneaker started you collecting shoes? 2007 Valentines Day Nike Vandal
What is the next shoe you plan to grab? The Kobe Barcelona (if that’s even remotely possible without being charged raped prices SMH)
What is your favorite sneaker in your closet? Right now, the Swizz Beatz Kamikaze.
If you had to pick one shoe to represent your military branch, what would it be and why? The AF1. Simply because the shoe itself is so iconic and what better way to represent the AF than with a pair of AF1s.
What is the worst part of trying to collect shoes and serve at the same time? For me the hardest part would definitely be getting deployed while a hot new release is about to drop.
Do/did you ever try to work sneakers into your military-assigned attire? Of course. The Gortex camo jackets were always the best to rock with some fly kicks.
What?s the best part of being in the Armed Forces? Seeing the world and the friends that you end up making
Since you?ve been all around the world, what?s your favorite sneaker store? I would have to say Sole Boutique in San Antonio.
If you could design a sneaker dedicated to you particular branch, what shoe would you use and how would you create it (colors, materials)? I would go with the Jordan XX3. I’d incorporate a digitized camo pattern of the current uniforms, but in a Navy and Carolina blue colorway. The AF symbol emblazoned on the tongue and of course the finest leathers and suede to complete the look.
Do you have any memorable shoe-related stories? Just recently drove to Houston to pick up the Swizz Beatz Kamikaze and was lucky enough to b the last person in line and get the last pair ever made.
