Sneaker News Blogs: Best of WDYWT – 2/14 – 2/20
February 20th, 2012 by John K. | 26 comments

It’s crazy to think that a single shoe like the Air Jordan IV White/Cement caused nationwide campouts and ‘maintenance’ for online sneaker stores, but that certainly wasn’t the case for all the popular and coveted sneaker releases of the last decade. Shoes listed in this week’s Best of WDYWT are certainly more prized, like the rare Parra x Air Max 1 Hyperstrike, the Air Jordan IV ‘Thunder’, and even older gems like the Nike Son Of Glove, but with the sneaker community growing by the day, these sneakers have become more and more priceless as they begin to age. Nobody knows what the sneaker horizon will be like in the next few years, but just know that the twenty listed here are certified gems. Check out this week’s Top 20 from Sneaker News Blogs: WDYWT and vote for your favorite of the bunch.


Nike Zoom Kobe VII ‘All-Star’ – Jon Hundreds – Los Angeles, CA

SBTG x Nike Dunk Low ‘UNKLE’ Customs – Tydro – Calgary, Canada

Nike Son of Glove – Flores – Dallas, TX

Air Jordan XV ‘Flint’ – Jose – Springfield, MA

Nike SB Dunk High ‘Marge’ – Tony Diamonds, CA







Son Of Gloves! <~~~~~~ #LiFe
The shoegamecrazy thunder 4s look fake. They look like they have suede wings instead of plastic. Just saying. Maybe its the angle of the camera plus lighting that throwing it off..
As aforementioned on my post: I don't do fakes buddy. Just bad camera work I guess. I'll do better the next time
like i said. probably just bad angle or bad lighting
Yeah. I saw the disclaimer but you already know how cats be trolling on here so I just wanted to clear the air before somebody else decided to say the same thing w/o your foresight of bad angle/lighting is all
cough drop sole swap is crazy!!!! got my vote. but im late as shit tho lol
Manila, Singapore?
its good to see someone from the dmv wearing actual heat...there are way too many hypebeasts out here.
lol they removed the AM1 :D
reebok workouts,why does it say manila,singapore?lol.l
too bad those AM1 Albert heijn are fakes. They should have a Parra sig on the right pair.
not necessarily but they should not be patent leather.. they have both with and without the Parra signature on the side..
Didn't even notice the patent leather. They will be removed! Sorry y'all.
Maaaaaaaaaaaaan those "ALBERT HENTJES / AMSTERDAM" Air maxes are SUPA FAKE!!!
AM1 Amsterdam are fake...
Oh wait, never mind..yea, those are fake. Patent leather toe, no parra signature. Tsk, tsk, tsk.
Shit, didn't even notice the patent leather. There are definitely a few legit sample pairs around the place without the Parra signature though.
How do you figure?
No they are not. There were 24 pairs with the Parra logo on them and a handful of sample pairs without them. What you're looking at is an even rarer version of what is already an incredibly rare hyperstrike release. They're definitely getting my vote this week.
Parra AM 1 Amsterdam all day!! Only a handful or less in the world. Rare!
I normally never post but, I've never seen those Amsterdams before! Good line up everyone.
wow alot of good kicks this week
marges, nerfs, cg 4's, unions, cherrywoods, silver foams, and the og 13's especially all lookin good...pretty good week if u ask me
birthdays take the cake!
Aha..... I see what you did there
Back to back weeks in top 20 for me but Dantet AKA Parts Guy, you got my vote man! Galaxy Lebrons are sick, waiting on my pair now!
