Sneaker Freaker Issue 46

The highlight of Issue 46 is a trio of collector features. Simply B brings the heat from Miami, while Brooklyn-born Chris Rosario flexes showcases his collection of big-game ballers from the late 90s. Nigo’s fruit-flavoured Air Force 1 knock-offs owned the streets of New York and Tokyo in the early 2000s and took the hype game right up to Nike. The BAPE STA bootleg battle segues perfectly into the legal dramas that have engulfed the scene this year as Nike looks to assert some control over John Geiger, Warren Lotas, KickRich and others.
