Become a ‘Sneaker Hero’ like the great Adam Smith!
It used to be that just footballers, runners and other sportsmen were keen on the different types of sneakers available, but nowadays you just can't keep up with being a fashionista unless you are sporting a pair of your favourite sneakers, and your choice becomes part of your personality.
The craze for personalised sneakers has now bred a new class of 'Sneaker Heroes" who have been inspired by a certain Adam Smith, an office worker who was made into a viral legend on Youtube when he gave up his job by refusing to leave his Jordan sneakers at home. You just have to watch it here and you will immediately become a convert. Adam is the original real Sneaker Hero!
This has led to a spate of copycat sneaker heroes who are trying to emulate Adam Smith by making their own videos, and has inspired various examples of 'Sneaker Art' and even 'Neon Sneaker Signs'. All created as tributes to Adam's sacrifice for his sneakers.
The famous Sneaker Shop Footlocker have even created a dedicated website called It's a Sneaker Thing where everyone who loves their sneakers can post their contribution to the ever-growing Footlocker Sneaker Movement!
There have been some absolutely brilliant artistic entries, but my absolute favourite is the video of the priest who interrupts a wedding ceremony to clean his sneakers. Have you got the bottle to do something like that?
I have been racking my brains to think of an original idea to get added to the www.itsasneakerthing.eu website, but I think that if my readers had a look at the website and then came back with some ideas for me then we could make an entry of the best suggestion!
You could also get some inspiration by becoming a fan of the Facebook pages of Adam Smith himself or the Footlocker movement, and by visiting these pages you can get an idea of exactly how big this Sneaker Movement has become!
And remember, it doesn't matter which type of sneaker you prefer, you can pay homage to your favourite on the Footlocker website and show your mates just how dedicated you are to your chosen footwear….
