What sort of treasures does one amass after collecting sneakers for 25 years? The answers are in this video, which focuses on a French Air Jordan collector named Fabien.

A lot of the stuff that he shows off has been made less special in the years since its original release by retros–Jordans with the original "Nike Air" branding on them for example–but this is still a good history lesson. Beyond just the sneakers, Fabien's got an impressive stack of promo materials from back in the day that served up footwear eye candy in the pre-Internet world.

His collection goes beyond just retail releases to include one very special pair of original Jordan 5s made for Michael Jordan himself.
