We rallied up our top 2 Sneakerheads here at Glue Store HQ and found out what kicks make them tick! We asked them the do's, dont's and musthaves of the sneaker collecting business and the pair that got away.
PART I
Name? Mr Zaccery Davies
Role at Glue store? I buy shoes. I'm the Sports and Lifestyle Footwear Buyer.
How many pairs of Sneakers do you own? Unknown.. too many to count I always feel like I need more.
What is your favourite pair? My all time favourite pair would have to be my pair of Asics Gel Lyte III x Sneaker Freaker Alvin Purples (OG Release of course). I usually take these with me on any trips away or holidays I go on.
What do you look for in a pair of Sneakers or what makes a good pair? Shape first and foremost and the way it looks on. Then of course the materials and what it's made of, I love a good suede. Lastly the colour pop, nothing too much but enough to say something.
3 pairs of Sneakers everybody should own? A classic white cup sole, a traditional Retro Runner style (OG Silhouette) and something new, lightweight and sleek that has a tech feel.
Top 3 Sneakers from our latest collection? The Asics GLV Black/Tan - it's a classic colour way's easy and wearable. The Reebok Ventilator - these kicks feel so smooth on. The Adidas Campus x Nigo - enough said.
What pair of Sneakers are you wearing right now? A pair of red Puma Suedes. Yeezy taught me.
The one pair that got away? Umm one? Tough Q. I don’t think I can answer that.. There has been a few Collaborations that I have missed out on but I guess that makes it half the fun.
