With the sneaker game developing year by year, and with the new generation creating a different sort of demand, stores are having to keep up with differing trends.

I recently had a chance to speak with Kohei (one of the man people behind Foot-Patrol) about all things limited and pressure of running a store. Take a look at what’s going on, the futures live!

Dopefiend has conducted an interview with the newly opened Alife in Vancouver.
“After months of speculation, rumour and hearsay, alife finally opened up their second store late September 2005 in Vancouver, British Columbia, in the heart of Gastown. But why Vancouver? It didn’t seem like an obvious choice…perhaps it was the Olympics? The whole west coast thing? Turns out, it was a very deliberate move by one of the sharpest streetwear design teams working today. We had a ton of other questions to ask, so we spoke to Nate Sabine of alife Canada and Nubile Distribution to clear up all the rumours surrounding North America’s hottest new boutique.”
