Sneakers are the greatest thing on this earth! As of lately, sneaker culture has taken on a whole new identity. Trey Soles and I talk about our love for sneakers, the changes within the sneaker community, and the difficulties of being a woman in a male-dominated arena. We also talk about our favs and not so fav sneakers.
Trey Soles is a shoe-lover born and raised in Los Angeles. Be sure to follow her on Instagram. She provides real, honest reviews of her shoe purchases. She campaigns for Black women and the face that #blackgirlslovesneakerstoo!
It has been very difficult to continue this habit because of all the gatekeepers in sneaker culture. Representation definitely matters in the world of sneakers. I can appreciate that platforms, like Instagram, has brought more Black women across my timeline that share a similar obsession. The next step is to get more Black women in the design rooms. It is evident based off the design for women that there is a lack there.
