“We’re going to hold your hand along the way, and hopefully, you can see how crazy this sneaker culture really is.”
In the first episode of "Knot Another Sneaker Podcast" from the Emerald Podcast Network, Emerald Engagement Editor Jake Willard and Julian Ossias discuss automatic lacing basketball shoes, the trend of exclusive styles for University of Oregon athletic teams and their own backgrounds with sneaker culture.
