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...

OTHER COMMENTS (その他): I'm actually only 90% sure I got these at a Niketown. The price tag on the box ($90.00) looks like a Niketown tag, but I can't actually recall getting them there. Ah well...that's what happens in your elderly years. According to sneaker lore, there was a legendary day where Tinker Hatfield went into the gym with his usual duffel bag of assorted shoes: A running shoe, a basketball shoe, and a tennis shoe. Then it hit him. Couldn't he create a shoe that was made to handle all those activities? You know, something that could be utilized for cross training. He went back to Nike and pitched the idea. They hated it. Why would Nike want people to stop buying 3 pairs of shoes and just buy one that could do them all? Luckily, Tinker didn't listen. (it's easier to ask for forgiveness than permission.) And lucky for Bo Jackson, Nike's biggest multi-sport athlete, he had something to rock when he said "Bo Knows." In retrospect, the entire collection of Bo Jackson endorsed Cross Training shoes were WAY ahead of their time. These 2004 retros of the 1991 originals were a must have for any true sneakerhead.
