Keeping SNEAKER-HEADS in the know and discussing sneakers as stories and appreciating the detail in which they are made. Sneakers and Vinyl have something in common- they are time capsules to a moment and we are the travelers.

KEY AND JAY, DEEMING THEMSELVES THE “CRATE DIGGERS CLUB,” IN COLLEGE BY BONDING OVER A SHARED love OF vinyl record collecting as a memior or musical biography that describes every time point in life. Almost like a photo album. When WE pass over, the records wil till be spinning. They will still be in those moments-moments that remind people of a time period. Reminding people where they were-like a time machine for authentic listening experience and audiophiles. Hearing all of the crisp mistakes unedited;-music in its purest form-not perfect.

A reminder that no one is perfect and it is okay.
