The Random Connections To People Through The Nostalgia Of Sneakers.
A few weeks back, I wore the Black/Metallic Jordan V’s to work. Keep in mind that I work in an industry where sneaker enthusiasts are few and far between. In fact, @StacksJohnson might be the only other one cut from the same “Eat Good. Stay Fresh.” cloth. But while in the office, a random, older co-worker approached me with wide eyes and said, “Hey, I know what shoes those are! I had the purple and teal ones when I was a kid!” And we had a long conversation about the history of the V’s and Michael Jordan. Crazy. I would never have thought this person could comprehend my love for sneakers, but for that brief moment, for that particular sneaker, he understood. Times like that remind me of why I love sneakers. The nostalgia. The people. The history. The relationships.
Why do you?
Eat Good. Stay Fresh.
