Sneaker Hunting Ain’t Dead!
Not that anyone said sneaker hunting was dead, but just so you don’t get it twisted, sneaker hunting ain’t dead! Just the other day my cousin and I went on a little sneaker hunt in Chevyboy land, but let’s just call it the “real country”.
We visited two small sneaker stores in Thomaston, GA, and picked up a few goodies. Their older stock wasn’t “vintage”, but they definitely had kicks on sale that would’ve never sat in Atlanta shops this long. Yes, I’ve found tons of heat throughout the south while fulfilling my sneaker destiny, but those of you that know about sneaker hunting are well aware that you don’t strike gold everytime. However, it’s been a while since the last time we hopped on the road, so I thought I’d share what the stores had to offer with the lovely TSG readers.
Check out the kicks that were relaxing on the sale racks after the jump. Oh yeah, consider this a “Sneaker Sale Report” as well because the Hot Lava Air Tech Challenge II’s were actually spotted at Hibbett Sports.
Feel free to to discuss the gems you’ve found while sneaker hunting.
