SOLE COLLECTOR: Sneakers

It was the one day we had marked on our calendar from the start of the Road Trip -- the wedding of our good friend and fellow writer Brandon Mattox.

There's nothing like some southern hospitality, as we met up with a group of sneaker collectors at their New Hope International Church just south of Atlanta. What better way to hang out for the night than by playing some ball.

When you're in NYC for an extended period of time, it's impossible not to check out Soho and the many spots abound. Nothing like a nice slow Saturday spent unwinding with some swiping of the plastic.

Phil and Justin at Made To Order in Philly sure know how to host a crowd. With UNDRCRWN and Sole Collector in the house, Made To Order provided drinks, music and a great environment for the sneaker fiend in all of us.

We decided to test the forum members again with just a few hours notice -- and sure enough a group of ten got together for a Pier shoot.

Here's a quick look at a day spent working on the upcoming half PUMA issue inside the Boston Design Center. Captured some great photos and stories.

When Steve's running late...everyone loses. Except Boston parking. It gets you every time.

The start of the 2008 Road Trip got off on a bad note the first day - 2nd day it smoothed out.

You might have heard of Sole Collector's legendary trips like the one that covered ALL 50 States! In the 50 state trip we met up with one sneakerhead in each state. This time is a little different - this time we are taking our time and will spend more time meeting more people in each city we stop at.
