nickengvall A couple weeks back I went to Sneaker Pimps in Hollywood. It was great to finally meet some of the people I talk with on Twitter in person. There was plenty of eye candy in the form of rare kicks, both being worn and on display. One that really caught my eye was this Air … Read more
Considering I am obsessed with sneakers and the San Francisco Giants, it’s probably no surprise to anyone that knows me or reads my blog, knows that I’m also obsessed with Brian Wilson.

Even though I’ve been slacking on my bloggin’ (at least here), New Balance has fulfilled that wish three times over now. After opening Experience Stores in both their home in Boston, and one in Washington DC, they’ve recently … Read more
Playing with the camera is one of my favorite things to do. I’ve been thinking about exactly what it is about it that is so intriguing to me. I think it’s because of the way I see things, and see things differently, and see things differently again. Perspective is everything. Yet with a camera, you … Read more
