Sizeeleven.com | Erik Börjesson Letting Go Of His Sneakers

Erik Börjesson, co-founder of SNS and avid sneaker collector, is letting go of a huge amount of his personal sneaker collection.
As he states on Sizeeleven.com he has been collecting sneakers for 16 years now. Since the numbers of pairs went past 600 he decided to let go of many of them.

Eriks size is size 11. That is the reason why the sneakers for sale are US size 10.5 to 11.
At the moment about 400 pairs of Adidas, Nikes, Jordans, NBs, Reeboks, Pumas and other brands can be found online. Rumors have it that Erik still has about 300 more pairs that he will put up in the near future.

If you wear around size 11 and are on the lookout for some hard to find kicks you better be quick and check out the Sizeeleven.com rather soon than later.

Adidas & Puma end 60 year Feud with Football Match

Adidas & Puma end 60 year Feud with Football

If you know about the history of adidas and Puma you are undoubtably aware of the feud between Adolf Dassler and Rudolf Dassler. In the 1920’s the two brothers created a company producing athletic footwear, however just after the end of the Second World War the company was dissolved.

In 1948, Adi Dassler set up adidas and Rudolf Dassler set up Puma in the Bavarian town of Herzogenaurach. The rivalry extended to the entire town based on employment.

Sadly the two brothers never reconciled their differences. However, the two companies they started are making peace with a friendly football match between the two companies in Herzogenaurach, where the rivalry is still alive. The event marks the first time the two companies have ever collaborated in their 60 year existence.

The match is set for tomorrow the 21st of September.

Today, neither side of the Dassler family plays a major role in either brand with Puma owned by French luxury conglomerate PPR and adidas is a publicly traded company with a diverse ownership.
