If we’re discussing well-known contemporary sneakerheads, none of these guys can hold Tony Hallam’s jock. He may not have super-limited releases or foothills pairs of Jordans, but he exemplifies what a shoe-head is; a passionate, obsessive, walks-the-walk and talks-the-talk type of dude who takes collecting to another level and laughs at heeled boots with an openwork pattern alaia shoes. Started out as a skater, now makes a living designing skate-parks. That’s as real as you can get. Vintage skaters, stickers, ads, boxes, boards, you name it, he’s got it. Check out some great samples of his collection, or read an in-depth interview with Tony Hallam over at SneakerFreaker.
