Sneakerhead Spotlight: Jae AKA @Klown_PrinceTV
Question 1: What’s in your current sneaker rotation?
Jae: Don't really have "rotations" anymore just more what I feel like rockin' (usually seasonal, but varies). But for this week (my Halloween trip) its: AF1 Halloween (2021 Black Glow in Dark), Halloween 2022 Starfish Dunks, Mummy SB Dunks, Night of Mischief SB Dunks, Halloween 2021 Dunks, Bodega Dunk, Halloween AirMax 97 Slime, Custom "by you" Joker Dunk, Ginger 14's and lastly Chris Lundy Olive Dunk from 2003.
Question 2: What's the last pair you UNDS'd?
Jae: By the time this goes out, it will finally (after a LONG wait) be SB Mummy Dunks.
Question 3: What is your fave sneaker you currently own?
Jae: This is a difficult question because I love all my sneakers for different reasons. However, I'd probably say its a tie between my Mummy SB Dunks and my Night of Mischief just because I'm finally unDSing them in Salem, Mass for Halloween 2022 which is my 13th year wedding anniversary - That means a great deal to me, so it'll be those 2.
Question 4: What is your must-have grail?
Jae: Honestly, I have most of my "grails" but my "unattainable" grails, simply because I refuse to drop the money required, would be the Freddy Krueger SB Dunks and the AirMags, working version.
Question 5: What got you started in the sneaker game?
Jae: I think like a lot of people. I grew up watching and loving MJ (Jordan). Kids were wearing Jordans and I wanted to also. But I think I really fell in love with sneakers as I got a little older and realized the art behind the sneakers. As I have a background in art, just what something as simple as sneakers (how you wear/lace them, what you wear) can tell you about someone. You can learn so much about a person simply by what shoes they own/wear and how they do so. It's pretty awesome really.
Question 6: What's something that most people don't know about you?
Jae: Honestly, I don't know I'm a pretty open book. I suppose that I have a background in art/design in various mediums along with art history. I've worked in everything from Tattoos to Design to Paint. But thats not really what I do anymore.
Question 7 (optional): What do you do for a living?
Jae: Imma Klown? lol. I do/have done a lot. If you were to say current, professionally I'm in IT. However since I have a background in art, I still dabble in design amongst a few others things whenever I can carve out a bit of time for it. I also moon light as a streamer when I have time.
Question 8: Where can people follow you on social media? YT, Snapchat, IG etc
Jae: Mostly my social media is actually here on Twitter "@Klown_PrinceTV". IG: is "klown_kopz" When I do stream, I stream on Trovo; Klown Prince; Warning: If you do decide to stop by sometime my streaming is NOT safe for children... Rated R... at best, (also wouldn't recommend if you don't have a darker sense of humor.)
