Sneaker Heads Go Crazy

Sneaker Heads Go Crazy We have the well-respected Padded Room shoe shop owner and sneaker head, Bo in the studio. Many of us know the pairs that we wanted, finally got, or just missed out on. They are tied to our fondest or most devastating memories. In this episode, we discuss the business of selling deadstock, rare footwear, pricing integrity, and service. And to be honest, you have Jordans to thank for the good hygiene habits of your favorite middle school boy coming of age. Show some respect.   Listen in as we discuss:                                         Gang culture influencing the rules of footwear (15:50) When drink spills happen to fresh pairs (18:45) What's your Grail?
