Muhahahaha!



Not into costumes? It's cool...just get a pair of Halloween inspired kicks from sneakerhead.com. Nike Dunks and Nike blazers have these pair that give you enough to get into the Halloween parties, without jeopardizing your cool factor.

Sneaker Lessons

So do you argue with people over which new shoe releases look better, and basically give a persuasive speech on why you chose the colorway you did for a particular sneaker? You can end all that non-sense and shut people up by saying that you're obviously right because you have a college credited course to back you up!How cool would that be??? Well the pic you're looking at is a picture of (from left to right) Elliot Curtis, Octavio Lubrano, and Jesse Chorng. The two on the end are the creators of Sneakerology 101 for Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA , and Lubrano is the designer behind the ever-so popular Air Jordan 6 Rings. Sneakerology 101 is a college credited course which explores the history of sneakers and they appeal. Curtis and Chorng created the course for Canegie Mellon University from the pure love of sneakers and wanting others to go deeper into the design and logic behind them.

Recently Lubrano paid the Sneakerologists a visit and was a guest speaker during the course. (Ha! I can see half of you addicts trying to register as we speak!). Through Chorng's blog he gave a very brief summary of Octavio's lecture:

"For the most part, he talked about the legacy and design philosophies behind Jordan. Being such a high end performance shoe, Jordans have a really unique process from concept to manufacturing and involve a tight knit team dedicated to upholding Michael Jordan's high standards of what he personally believes an athletic shoe should be."

Chorng and Curtis have both fulfilled sought after internships with Vice Magazine and Reebok, which I'm sure opens the door for their most studious scholars to network their way to sole heaven.

Can't go another day without the class??? Click here
