Sneaker Friends ’08 Takes Over Atlanta

On a typically busy night in Atlanta last week, Greg Street and his Sneaker Friends '08 event at the Fabulous Fox Theatre found itself in direct competition with a Lil Wayne show only a few blocks away. Its safe to say that most ATLiens prefer Ice Creams over Lollipops.

The sneaker heads were definitely in the house as both local retailers like Laced Up and national brands like Puma put their best foot forward to bring attention to Atlanta's much slept-on sneaker culture. Check out a gang of photos from the event after the jump.

    So if I buy a limited pair of sneakers and I don’t wear them and then bring them to a show like this, that makes me cool? I didn’t know it was so easy. I’m moving to Atlanta.
