Chronicle of sneakers of the 70s and 80s. "Before Nike controlled nearly half of the global sneaker market" and "before yuppies started wearing sneakers with their suits to walk to and from work," sneaker culture was the province of "sneaker fiends" and ball players, Garcia says in an interview. There are hundreds of pictures of sneakers, reprints of classic sneaker ads, and pictures of people playing basketball in sneakers. Garcia shares color combinations, nicknames, relevant athlete endorsements and input from fans on each sneaker's pros and cons. Hip Hop and sneakers have gone hand and hand from the beginning, this book is a must have for all sneaker fiends.
