I think everyone had a "Darrin Hudson" in their lives. Darrin Hudson was in my high school, back in Marlboro, NJ. You know, that person that you had to one-up all the time. Didn't matter what it was: Gear, hair, grades, sports, whatever...it was ON. Well for Darrin and I...it was kicks. Plain and simple. Oddly enough, in a school with over 1000 kids, me and him were the only 2 really into sneakers back then. This is my blog dedicated to Darrin. This is to tell Darrin that I'm still out there, and if he wants to battle, here it is son!! Bring it!! I've since lost touch with Darrin, but thanks to him, you all get to check out the kicks I have amassed over the years. So it is here, that I will archive every pair of shoes I own. It’ll include detailed photos, a grading system, a little tidbit behind each one and every single one will be available for purchase. (Simply POST A COMMENT with your offer). Some other little goodies sprinkled throughout also. Even if I updated a different shoe every week, it would take me about 3 years to complete this project. So sit back and enjoy! The project begins January 1st, 2006...

YOU HEAR IT. FIRST.


Well if you're reading this blog...you surely won't hear it first from them, but MTV NEWS came in today and did an interview on me and the world of Staple Design. They've started some off-shoot of MTV NEWS called "MTV Chi" (rhymes with "tea"). It's based on Asian-American culture. It's on its own channel on DirecTV (too bad I have Time Warner). Anyway, it went well. I still find it very strange when people interview me and ask how, why or what I do. I never thought my job was newsworthy...it's just...work. I just bust my ass everyday and for some reason, people feel that is interesting. Not complaining...just find it amusing sometimes.

Hi,
Just been reading your blog! It was a very enjoyable read, nice one!

Just thought that I would drop you a note to say hi, I visited the store back in
April 05 and my parents visited in Sep 05 and said that they had a chat with you
guys and you also hooked me up with a load of stickers. Anyway, I just wanted
to say cheers.


Cheers
