Episode 43: End of a Sneaker Era

In this episode, I cover Lost and Found 1s being backdoored and their plummeting resell price, more fallout from Kanye West deal and it's short term and long term effects on the industry. I also give my thoughts on the state of collaborators and sneaker storytelling, how we're at the end of a sneaker era, but a dawning of a new one. A shit ton of topics, so hope you enjoy.
