OG Sneaker Collector Explains Nike Foamposite Craze + Wale & Kevin Durant Stories

In episode 2 of "Show Me Your Sneaker Collection" TSG took a trip to the DMV (DC, Maryland, Virginia) to connect with an OG female collector who goes by SneakerfanDan. Danielle's love for sneakers & basketball runs deep and it shows in this episode.
PG County's own explains the DMV's connection to Nike Foamposites and she also tells stories about Kevin Durant missing a hyped Jordan release as well as Wale's passion for sneakers. SneakerfanDan also speaks on making a name for herself by doing sneaker customs which led to her working with several professional athletes.
All in all, episode 2 is full of great sneaker stories, passion and is highly relatable to the everyday sneakerhead or collector. Danielle's episode is refreshing because she drops a lot of knowledge and lives by the saying, "buy what you like".
Enjoy!

Its all about nostalgia for me

[@paul734]

I agree 100%. Alot of retro 90 kicks came out over the year and I've taken advantage of them being lowkey and on discount.

[@tavianmaalik]

Been watching this channel since I was at least 13 I’m 21

[@Queenofsole100]

PG Plaza had Ladies Footlocker, Athletes Foot, Kids Footlocker, and World Footlocker and I was in every single store every month in the 90s. I'm a female collector in the DMV too. I appreciate this episode.

[@AnthonyWilliams_83]

All I needed to see was those JKidd’s in black to know she’s a real one!! Salute to her!

[@MS-ly4oi]

Those was his second signature sneaker. I had those cause I couldn’t get the zoom ones!! Smh memories

[@moneymakingmitch]

When the OG foam foam dropped in 97 DC was the only place wearing those. Only NY sneaker guys that was on them was Mayor, and CKent. Also most people didn't wanna drop that 200 for them. Some people go by when Wale came in the scene and that was 10 after the original drop. So we always had the crown

[@PrNichole]

She’s so respected in the community. She knows the history... n is 🔥 but humble ❤️

[@leightonwhite1227]

I see her stuff on Instagram all the time. She turns dad sneakers or shoes that you wouldn’t expect into serious heat! 💪🏿

[@nabilclemons-el2499]

PG Plaza was dope back in the day. I brought my first pair of Jordans there a pair of bred 1's back in 2011 the last pair and they were my size, along with Jay-Z Blueprint

[@Queenofsole100]

Facts. I hit Sam Goody, Up Against the Wall, and World Foot Locker, every month in high school. Memories.

[@jdubb45]

[@eddiefresh76]

The shoe game Ny stop wearing foams cause there were bootlegging them crazy soon as the black market gets it we move on to something else asap... And no disrespect to D.C. or any other state but facts is facts...

[@DeathrowDC]

I got love for all the real sneakerheads still in the game. A lot of wannabes out here and they messed up the culture. I feel bad for the young kids who have a real love for shoes but have to grow up in this stupid resale era.

[@C0bbler_J0nes]

😂😂😂😂 New Yorkers putting foams over airforce 1😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
