Today I am going to talk about my
latest hobby, that has driving me crazy this last 8 months, and feel very passionate
about it. Today I am going to about Sneakers-trainers and Sneakerhead culture.
Yes, there's people like me who collects sneakers, spend a lot of money on them
and think they are an important issue in this world. Everything started on April
I think, it was a rainy Sunday and I was walking through streets. I remember
the streets of Santiago flooded. I was wearing old and only pair of sneakers I
had. They were totally torn and wear away. I recall my foot totally soaked. It
was a cold day and the only purpose that trainers have (which is covering the
foot from the outdoor) was being clearly unsuccessful. The next week I went shopping.
Searching for a new pair of trainers. And it was there when the curse began. 
Joking aside. I
really think that trainers an important part of our life, we spend all most 2/3
of our day on our foot. The commodity of your shoes or trainers could affect
easily your daily mood. Besides "dressing your foot" has become
through the time an important matter for fashion. I like collecting sneakers
because I think they are the connection between fashion and common wear, I had
been collecting shoes and trainers for 7 month and I have collected a total of
8 pairs that I love with all my heart. The most precious are my beautiful
Adidas Ultra Boost Black. This are the trainers of the moment. I was crazy for
them and searched it in Santiago for a long time. Until I found them. This model
it isn't producing anymore so I could tell I got one of the last pairs in the
world. Although my passion for trainers,
collecting them is very hard. The prices for trainers are insane. When you
start it seem like 100 USD trainers are way too expensive. But when you start
knowing more about this matter, 100 USD is very cheap. Everything you want and
is on the hype will cost at least 200 USD. I am a architecture student who
doesn't work. The career is to absorbing to have a part-time job. So basically
I can't afford all the trainers I want.

Sneaker culture is
bigger than you could though. Reselling market moves a lot money you could even
imagine. 200 USD Jordans could easily cost 1000 USD at reselling. Millennials
are crazy for sneakers. Here is a ted talk video about sneakers
