Jeff Staple är inte bara en duktig designer visar det sig, han har även en tävlings instinkt då han lobbar hårt på sin hemsida varför Pigons ska vinna mot den hel vita Air Force 1an i Final Four tuneringen vi skrev om tidigare. Här har ni Jeff’s tio bästa anledningar till varför man ska rösta på SB Dunken han designa. Kolla in hans egna hemsida för att se vad för annat skönt han har på gång. För att läsa listan här är det bara att klicka på fortsätt läs.
10. History. No sneaker has ever been on the front page of a major NYC newspaper except for the Pigeon. Not before. Not since. Period.
9. Best resell value: Average $2000.00+ for the Pigeons vs regular MRSP for the AF1s.
8. Pigeons (if you can find a pair) last a lot longer than the white on white AF1s which get dirty in the first 10 mins of wearing.
7. Comfort. I know the AF1s look good…but c’mon, Nike SB Dunks are infinitely more comfortable. And if you think AF1s are more comfortable than Nike SBs, I suggest you try German Wooden Clogs…you might find them even more comfy!
6. Degree of difficulty. Look at who AF1 had to beat to get to the Final Four and who Pigeon had to overcome. Out-dueling De La’s, Heinekens, Futura x Unkle’s, 2 Supreme’s, SBTG and the Tiffany’s is no easy feat!
5. The AF1 has been out for over 25 years now and no one felt it was necessary to do a “Sneaker Tourney” in all that time. You could reason that the shoes in the Dunk Division were what spawned this entire phenomenon known as “sneaker culture”.
4. There’s bird poop INSIDE our shoe. No joke! Luck forever!
3. Scarcity: 150 Pigeons were made versus 150 bajillion AF1s.
2. If you’ve owned, traded, touched, or even SEEN the Pigeons in real life, you are a certified Sneaker Connoisseur. Louie, the crackhead on the corner has AF1s.
1. This is an NCAA inspired tournament. Shouldn’t the finals really be Air Jordan vs a shoe called THE DUNK?!?
