nike air troupes




so i've just come back from backpacking around europe for four months. that place has ALOT of really cool sneakers. when i was in amsterdam i made friends with some fellow german sneakerheads whose house i stayed at in bonn(near cologne - home of haribo candy and beethoven!). they told me there was a sneaker outlet nearby that has super cheap stuff. i had my eye on these nike air troupes already when i was in cologne, i saw them in a shop on sale for 52 euros. i saw the same pair in this sneaker outlet for only 30 euros and was soooo overjoyed.

this outlet is pretty cool, but are fairly limited in sizes and you have to search through alot of crap to get to the good stuff. but it's really fun going through all the stacks of shoeboxes that they have - each box has a different pair of sneakers:D these air troupes are pretty crazy, and i think the eyelet at the back of the heel is being used more and more by nike. love love love this pair, i was pretty obsessed with the galaxy print and was fucking stoked to find the print on a sneaker! the laces they came with were black but i changed them to to purple to match the collar. if you are ever in germany, hit up römerstr. 49 in 53111 bonn.
