How do you translate Sneaker Freaker into German?

SNEAKERFREAKER How do you translate Sneaker Freaker into German?

That’s tough, right? But don’t worry, you don’t have to do so anymore, because there is a German version of Sneaker Freaker about to highlight the German sneaker scene. The site went online yesterday and the first mag will be dropping in two weeks on Dec, 16th. To prepare everyone for the hustle that is necessary to be one of the first to get it they made this dope video. :)

In Frankfurt the mag will be availble at the good guys from AZITA. See you there.
And all the best to the Sneaker Freaker team.

From Berlin With Love, wa! (Part 1)

Tachchen.

So I arrived in Berlin after having no sleep the night before, because we had to celebrate our first win of the season, and went with Simon, who now lives in Berlin, diiiiiirectly on the Touristenverarsche-Tour and to the Kurt Krömer Benefizgala in the evening.

On Monday, we made our way downtown again, but this time to check out some stores.

Down the street, we spotted the BBB Headquaters right next to the adidas Originals store. I’m actually also thinking about going to the next BBB in January. We’ll see…

Next stop was STAB, where you have a good sneaker-to-clothing ratio in my eyes.

That’s the front. Unfortunately, it was already dark.

The atmosphere in the store was cool and very laid-back, so you can feel really comfortable there.

You can also get some Japanese magazines there, while I got myself a new Stüssy beanie. And no, they don’t make ‘Gas-/Wasserinstallationen’, if some krayzie person on the street should tell you that LOL.

Simon also found this book called ‘Take Ivy’ that contains photographs of men and their clothes shot on the Ivy campuses. It was originally published in Japan in 1965 and started the “Ivy Style” fashion among students in Tokyo. And as Simon told me not much has changed on the campuses fashionwise in all those years. And if somebody should know about that, it’s him, but I won’t drop the H-bomb now. :)

AZITA & LASER MAGAZINE.

After Chrishimself made me aware of the fact, that some NIKE Dunks High, that I was thinking about buying for a long time, are being sold during AZITA‘s sale (even in my size!!! US12!), I drove there yesterday to get them. In typical Frankfurt colors!!!

On their web store I also found some interesting magazines, but mostly the Preview Issue of reed pages intrigued me. From the AZITA store, you just have to walk around the corner and you’ll find LASER MAGAZINE. Hopefully, they’ll get also the real issues, as there are so many interesting things already in this Preview Issue. Also, some things, I already planned to blog about, so that means, you’ll get even more quality posts now. :-)
