Ok everybody. I’ve just got back from Paris and have reviews of most of the important sneaker spots of this amazing city.
Let me start with my comment on the sneaker culture: they love Air Maxes and everyone and their mothers wear AM’s. Unfortunately, just like in the US, the fakes have reached this continent as well but instead of Air Jordans it’s mostly Air Maxes. Most people who wear them don’t care or know about it. Sad, but true.
Now the happy part, the review. Besides checking out the obvious toursist atractions (eg. Eiffel Tower, The Louvre, The Versailes, Notre Dame etc.). As an official Hype Beast I had to check the local spots for sneakers!!
