I think everyone had a "Darrin Hudson" in their lives. Darrin Hudson was in my high school, back in Marlboro, NJ. You know, that person that you had to one-up all the time. Didn't matter what it was: Gear, hair, grades, sports, whatever...it was ON. Well for Darrin and I...it was kicks. Plain and simple. Oddly enough, in a school with over 1000 kids, me and him were the only 2 really into sneakers back then. This is my blog dedicated to Darrin. This is to tell Darrin that I'm still out there, and if he wants to battle, here it is son!! Bring it!! I've since lost touch with Darrin, but thanks to him, you all get to check out the kicks I have amassed over the years. So it is here, that I will archive every pair of shoes I own. It’ll include detailed photos, a grading system, a little tidbit behind each one and every single one will be available for purchase. (Simply POST A COMMENT with your offer). Some other little goodies sprinkled throughout also. Even if I updated a different shoe every week, it would take me about 3 years to complete this project. So sit back and enjoy! The project begins January 1st, 2006...

WOOSTER COLLECTIVE.

The Wooster Collective was founded in 2001. This site is dedicated to showcasing and celebrating ephemeral art placed on streets in cities around the world. The founders are Marc and Sara...two of the coolest people on earth. True patrons and supporters of the arts. They recently held a salon in their office. A get together for art collectors, gallery owners, artists and fans. Special guest speakers included Kostas Seremetis, Christa Carr of Taschen Books and Matt Barber of Paper Monster. The crowd was intimate, intelligent and cool. I'm looking forward to the next one!
The Wooster Collectiveは2001年に創設されました。このサイトは世界中の都市で見かける短命なストリートアートを集めて展示しています。創設者はMarcとSara。。。地球上で最もヤバイ人たちの中の2人。アート界の真のパトロンとサポーター。彼らは最近オフィスで、サロンを開きました。アートコレクター、ギャラリー経営者、アーティスト、ファンなどの集いでした。スペシャルゲストスピーカーは、Kostas Seremetisさん、Taschen Books のChrista CarrさんとPaper MonsterのMatt Barberさん。集まった人たちは皆親しく、聡明でカッコイイ方ばかりでした。次も楽しみです!
