Back in 2002, Simon \u201cWoody\u201d Wood was dreaming up schemes to get free sneakers. Two weeks later, he was the proud owner of Sneaker Freaker and his life was never the same.<\/p>\n
From its early roots as a punk-style fanzine to today\u2019s super-slick print and online operations, the fiercely independent publication has documented every collab, custom, limited edition, retro reissue, Quickstrike, Hyperstrike, and Tier Zero sneaker released over the last 15 years.<\/p>\n
Woody\u2019s original premise that Sneaker Freaker would be \u201cfunny and serious, meaningful and pointless at the same time\u201d has certainly been vindicated in The Ultimate Sneaker Book. With more than 650 pages jam-packed with insider knowledge and his own irreverent observations, the insane historical detail and otaku-level minutiae is beyond obsessive.<\/p>\n
Traversing 100 years of history, each chapter paints a rollicking picture of the sneaker industry\u2019s evolution. Air Max, Air Force, Adi Dassler, Converse, Kanye, Dapper Dan, Dee Brown, Michael Jordan, and Yeezy\u2015along with obscure treasures like Troop, Airwalk, and Vision Street Wear\u2015are all exhaustively documented.<\/p>\n
