En 2002, Simon «Woody» Wood imaginait toutes sortes de stratagèmes pour obtenir des sneakers gratuites. Deux semaines plus tard, il était le fier patron de Sneaker Freaker, et sa vie en était changée à jamais. Depuis ses débuts de fanzine punk jusqu’au contenu léché de ses actuelles publications papier et en ligne, ce magazine farouchement indépendant a décrit et commenté toutes les collaborations, modèles sur mesure, éditions limitées, rééditions de modèles rétro, quickstrikes, hyperstrikes et tier zéro commercialisées ses 15 dernières années. Le but initial de Woody, que Sneaker Freaker soit «à la fois drôle et sérieux, chargé de sens et frivole», est pleinement atteint dans The Ultimate Sneaker Book. Avec plus de 650 pages saturées de connaissances expertes assorties d’observations irrévérencieuses et d’incroyables détails historiques, cette bible de la chaussure de sport détournée témoigne d’une minutie fervente et obsessionnelle qui frise la monomanie. Traversant 100 ans d’histoire, chaque chapitre présente joyeusement les tendances et évolutions de l’industrie de la sneaker. Air Max, Air Force, Adi Dassler, Converse, Kanye, Dapper Dan, Dee Brown, Michael Jordan et Yeezy — ainsi que des bijoux plus confidentiels comme les Troop, Airwalk et autres Vision Street Wear —, tous les modèles de légende sont décrits. Voici une source ultime de savoir. Gardez vos lacets libres!

Author(s): Simon Wood 672 Pages Art, Fashion & Accessories Description About the Book The first magazine of its kind, Sneaker Freaker has been at the forefront of the global sneaker scene for nearly two decades. With over 650 redesigned pages, fresh photography, immense historical detail, and otaku-level minutiae, this anthology combines the magazine's finest and content created exclusively for TASCHEN into one big celebration of sneakers. Book Synopsis Back in 2002, Simon "Woody" Wood was dreaming up schemes to get free sneakers. Two weeks later, he was the proud owner of Sneaker Freaker and his life was never the same. From its early roots as a punk-style fanzine to today's super-slick print and online operations, the fiercely independent publication has documented every collab, custom, limited edition, retro reissue, Quickstrike, Hyperstrike, and Tier Zero sneaker released over the last 15 years. Woody's original premise that Sneaker Freaker would be "funny and serious, meaningful and pointless at the same time" has certainly been vindicated in The Ultimate Sneaker Book. With more than 650 pages jam-packed with insider knowledge and his own irreverent observations, the insane historical detail and otaku-level minutiae is beyond obsessive. Traversing 100 years of history, each chapter paints a rollicking picture of the sneaker industry's evolution. Air Max, Air Force, Adi Dassler, Converse, Kanye, Dapper Dan, Dee Brown, Michael Jordan, and Yeezy--along with obscure treasures like Troop, Airwalk, and Vision Street Wear--are all exhaustively documented. This is a definitive source of knowledge. Keep your laces loose! Review Quotes "... a 650-page bible on all things in trainer culture."-- "Esquire" "...a must for crep lovers with space in their bookshelves and not enough space in their wardrobes."-- "VICE" "A coffee table classic for rubber sole obsessives."-- "The Guardian" "A 650-page tome that is filled with facts, observations and insider knowledge about a craze that doesn't appear to be subsiding anytime soon."-- "forbes.com" "The most definitive sneaker culture magazine on the planet!"-- "MTV"
