Profile:<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Name:<\/strong> Kritikal
\nInstagram: @KRTNYC<\/a>
\n<\/strong>Started:<\/strong> 1998
\nSize:<\/strong> 10.5<\/p>\n

Collection Summary<\/strong><\/h3>\n

“My name is Kritikal, I started collecting sneakers around 1998. I’m a rap artist from Staten Island, NY, and also the co-owner of the clothing line Kush & Kicks. I own a variety of sneakers from LeBron’s to Jordan’s, KD’s, Louie Vuitton, Alexander McQueen, Pony, and even some customized Jordan’s with snake skin, courtesy of The Shoe Surgeon.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Most Rare Pair:<\/strong> Kanye West for Louis Vuitton Jasper’s (2009)<\/h3>\n

““Patchwork” Jasper’s<\/strong>. I love these sneakers. I worked hard to get my hands on these. They only come out on special occasions.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Collection Starter:<\/strong> Nike Air Max Pillar (1998)<\/h3>\n

“These weren’t actually my first pair. My first pair of kicks was the Jordan Jumpman Team Pros<\/strong> in black and red. The Air Max Pillar’s<\/strong> were probably my second pair of kicks, but the ones that got me hooked. These aren’t the originals from ’98, they’re the retros from 2012. It’s only right to pay homage.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Personal Favorite<\/strong> Nike Air Yeezy 2 NRG “Pure Platinum” (2012)<\/h3>\n

“Got these babies for box price. Won them in the 21 Mercer<\/strong> Twitter Raffle. My favorite sneakers, and my favorite bridge.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Most Frequent Wear:<\/strong> Air Jordan 3 “Black Cement” (2011)<\/h3>\n

“The Jordan 3<\/strong> is my favorite Air Jordan, no question. The “Black Cements”<\/strong> being my favorite of all the colorways. This pair has been all over the country.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Oldest Pair:<\/strong> Air Jordan 5 “Green Bean” (2006)<\/h3>\n

“I’m lucky to still have these! I lost all of my older stuff when my mother forgot to pay the rent on a storage unit. Someone got lucky. SMH. These bad boys are still in great condition.”<\/p>\n
