Sneakerhead Spotlight: Nate AKA @n8frost
Question 1: What’s in your current sneaker rotation?
Nate: This week I’ve rocked Yeezy 350 V2 Zyon, Air Jordan 14 DMP, Nike By You AM90, Yeezy 350 V2 Light, Yeezy 700 Waverunner, Air Jordan 1 Chameleon, and Yeezy 350 V2 Beluga RF.
Question 2: What's the last pair you UNDS'd?
Nate: The last shoe I UnDS’d was the Sneaker Room x Kyrie Irving Mom “Air and Earth”. Absolutely loved the design of the shoe. Like the owner of Sneaker Room and Kyrie, I lost my mother as well. That visible name tag on the back to write her name on them was really special to me.
Question 3: What is your fave sneaker you currently own?
Nate: Man that’s a super tough question. Can I make some distinguishments?
Air Jordan: Doernbecher 9
Nike Basketball: Kobe 7 Prelude
Other Nike: Air Max 90 “By You”
Adidas: Yeezy 700 Waverunner
I’m not even sold on that list but that’s what I’ll say for now.
Question 4: What is your must-have grail?
Nate: This is really another tough question. My must own shoe that’s obtainable without lottery money was the Air Jordan 7 “Bin Premio”. I love how funky that shoe is. But if I could have just one shoe no matter the cost, I’d want the “What the Doernbecher” Air Jordan 1. The way they integrated all of the past Doernbecher Jordan models’ details into it is nothing short of amazing.
Question 5: What got you started in the sneaker game?
Nate: It’s not going to sound glamorous, but it was the dope boys in my neighborhood. You always knew who had the money by who had the whitest pair of Forces. And starting from there, you had to have every flavor for every outfit that wasn’t a plain white tee.
Question 6: What's something that most people don't know about you?
Nate: I am super introverted. I do well in crowds and tend to be well liked across different populations, but I actually love being alone and have a lot of social anxiety despite how easily it seems that I get on in new places.
Question 7 (optional): What do you do for a living?
Nate: For a living I plan and manage different types of projects
Question 8: Where can people follow you on social media? YT, Snapchat, IG etc
Nate: Twitter and IG is @n8frost. They can catch me on the Take Breakers Twitter Space Monday’s at 8PM and on the Sample Size space once we return as well. I’m giving out personalized coffins all year!
Also I want to add that my favorite color is gold and to remind y’all the Atlanta Braves are the World Series Champions 🏆 of Baseball ⚾️
