No matter what you were rocking…Nike, Puma, NB, Reebok, Vans, Converse, Bape, Clot, Supreme, NBHD, Visvim, etc…we love all of you with as much love as we can give back!!!

All those who came out to have a good time last night…you guys (and gals) rock!!!!! We keep reiterating, but it’s the darn honest truth, Sole Obsession could never happen without the massive outpouring and support of those who still believe we still have and can have a sneaker and street scene of our own.

It was amazing to see the number of people who came to hang out, have a few beers and check out the display…extremely heartening and this makes us want to carry on doing what we do. What we saw was greatly encouraging for the local scene and we hope it will grow and grow.
