Now that you know what the OTC meeting is about, I want to show a bit more what is happening there.
Of course we all meet to share our passion and collections, exchange knowledge and enjoy each
other's company, but we also have a few activities taking place:
Each year every participant brings some vintage pieces they are willing to let go from their
collection and they are being raffled.
This year's raffle once again featured some incredible prizes, for example a pair of baby vintage
Carmines or an amazing OG Blue Ribbon Sports longsleeve which Nic kind ..read more

I prefer not to put all the pictures I shot into one post, as I feel it is devaluing the extreme heat
presented every year at the Nike OTC meeting.
Also I realized that many might not even know what the OTC meeting is actually about.
If you are serious about collecting vintage Nike then you probably got your hands on the Lightning
Nike Chronicle deluxe and/or Chronicle extra at some point and realized what incredibly precious
and meticulous works they are.
Now imagine all the collectors who are listed in them as 'Special Supporters' meet in one room and
bring som ..read more

Most of my readers probably know by now, that the annual OTC meeting in Tokyo is always a highlight in my
sneaker year and I try everything possible not to miss it.
Making it happen turned out to be a real challenge this year, but after hustling through I finally made
it to Japan again.
Words can't describe how happy I was to visit and see all my otaku friends, but my smile says it all.
Without further ado I of course want to share my pleasures with you, so feast your eyes on part 1
of this year's gathering which had the theme: Nike The Sting and al ..read more

When I created my F&F Conductor I had a list of people in mind who inspired me to get to this
point and to whom I wanted to pay tribute to and gift this special pair.
From close family members to international culture creators this list had a big influence on my
process and the final outcome.
Forever linked with Trefoil and sneaker history Jam Master Jay and @rundmc were an inspiration
since day one of my collaborations.
@kingdmc is one of the very few people, whom I had also seeded my Rivalry Hi SNEAKERQUEEN back in 2013.
So when @shakejmj  ..read more

Last week I celebrated my 42nd birthday by gifting my closest ones a pair of my Adidas x SneakerQueen F&F Conductor.
And when I say family&friends I really mean my core circle.
Because luckily all of my family members are also my closest confidants.
So of course my mum, my dad, my sister and their partners all came by to celebrate with me and my sneaker family.
Beinghunted was so kind to give me their gallery space for an afternoon, I baked some cake and bread, handed out my sneakers to a very exclusive little round and set up a sm ..read more

One of my favourite ideas for my F&F Conductor is the orange heel flex zone.
As a reference to the high-tech performance sports shoe the model debuted as, I assigned this little piece the texture and colour of a basketball.
Still can’t believe nobody ever thought of doing that, but I really love it.
Another detail is the two slogans I put on the inside of the tongue:
‚Don’t believe the hype‘ the famous public enemy song starts with „caught you lookin’ for the same thing
It’s a new thing, check out this I bring’
and is not only a great poetic introduction to my pair, but the sl ..read more

Today I can finally share what I have been working on for the past 2 years.
I tell you it wasn’t easy to keep my mouth shut.
Here‘s my dad in the adidas x SneakerQueen Conductor I created for my (sneaker) family and friends.
Only around 30pairs were produced and will be handed out to the people who are dearest to me and share my love for classic basketball silhouettes.
These are a symbol of gratitude for the community around me that I cherish so much and the people who where a big influence on my style and on becoming who I am today.
Since this is a family and fiends production I wanted to f ..read more
