Inside Anton Krupicka’s Gear Shed

[@anthonyshearer2657]

You all realize that shoes are the most essential tools of his trade, right? And why pay for a large place when you live most of your life outside in the mountains of the world? I think you've got your priorities straight, Tony.

[@archaic100]

he barely ever runs. he has killed his body with his reckless approach to training.

[@gimmegimmeineedineed]

@@archaic100 woopsy, this didn’t age well

[@user-xn2hf9re8r]

so tidy given amount of gear in that space - congrats my man

[@TounInTheHole]

What do you need a big appartment for, if you spend 80 % of your time outside? If you ran for 20 years and could have your shoes for free, I think that over the years you would collect about the same amount.

[@cameronfrancey1718]

I thought for a minute there that he was going to open the microwave oven and show more shoes :)

[@desiortega9878]

My dream apartment!

[@derekcernak4655]

for the people remarking about this being too many shoes... first, it is his job. pack everything in your office into your bedroom and see how that goes. but a general rule of thumb, even though la sportiva's last a LONG time, is to put no more than 300 miles on a pair of shoes, before they become bad for your body to wear. there are ultra runners who run 300 miles per WEEK... so actually, he has less shoes than i thought he would have

[@danielsnell1843]

I’m not sure ultra runners make much money to be honest. They are the surfers of the mountains dude! I don’t think he’s about the $$$ and more about the great outdoors.

[@faithfulrunner9313]

WOW. I wonder how many shoes he has in all

[@travroy]

Someone get this man a Bubba Gump hat

[@veganathleteforlife5993]

So many shitty comments hah this video rules!

[@TrackForField]

Anyone remember this. In the Saucony commercial in 2011 last night? That heel striking was painful to watch

[@HermesWings333]

Heel striking isnt really that bad depends on the pace you're going. Gradually most runners whether realizing it or not tend to move up on their midfoot the most ideal place to land according to most studies is actually outside the heel and up through the edge and pushing off from your second toe. Anything else really leads to damage.

[@travis_hampton]

Soles4Souls collects gently used shoes for distribution in other countries.

[@margaretblake5051]

How do you make money?

[@JMalikZ]

outdoor companies sponsor him and he also helps them in designing shoes and all by giving feedback.

[@fvelame]

As he makes money with the sponsors, if you purchase a shoe of his brand you also helps him to get one more shoe...ok, he already has too much.

[@audreyv8247]

😊

[@sobek]

shit and I thought I had a lot of shoes

[@_vidoza]

People are really mad at a runner for having manu shoes, like being mad at a climber for having many carabiners😂

[@webermariusz]

That must be a smelly apartment...

[@mellonmarshall]

But why so many shoes???

[@Soulsurver]

he gets them for free ;)

[@JMalikZ]

he is a sponsored athlete and he has to test all the shoes.

[@archaic100]

he doesn't test squat.. his running career is over. he's been injured for over 2-3 years now.

[@kearress7350]

Shoe overkill...

[@ruski024]

Kearress no such thing

[@njaneardude]

Dude, really, donate the shoes.

[@markgrenier6787]

Sad

[@MrSmboss]

So explain to me how this lifestyle represents simple living?

[@tndrunning3328]

Matt Bos Because all he does is sleep, eat and run/cycle/ski. Simple

[@MrSmboss]

and yet he owns enough gear for 10 lifetimes.

[@MrSmboss]

@TND Running

[@ezraflores596]

Matt Bos because he's sponsored.. that's where all that gear came from. It is a simple life.

[@lucievec6683]

Why so many shoes or better why is the "living area" so tiny?

[@user-xn2hf9re8r]

I guess he only crashes there as he's out all the time.

[@lucievec6683]

Yeah. I suppose so. I think he lives elsewhere

[@DeniM-cv2ro]

I thought he's meant to be a minimalist ? 🤔

[@marh.2522]

wtf
