Question 1: What’s in your current sneaker rotation?

Tristan: My collection runs pretty deep, but my recent heavy rotation has been the Yeezy 700 V2 Vanta, Yeezy 500 Blush, Yeezy DST BT Salt, white Continental 80’s, and my custom UltraBoost 19’s. 

Question 2: What’s the last pair you UNDS’d?

Tristan: My last pair of sneakers I UNDS’d were the triple red Pharrell HU Solar Glides.

Question 3: What is your favorite sneaker you currently own?

Tristan: My favorite sneaker that I currently own is the Yeezy 700 V2 Vanta. The 700 is by far my favorite sneaker silhouette, and the all black goes with everything! 

Question 4: What is your must have grail?:

Tristan: My must have grail is any of the three UltraBoost samples that Action Bronson put together. I love the Real Tree camo design he used, and they look amazing in pictures, but unfortunately I think he is the only man who has them in possession.

Question 5: What got you started in the sneaker game?

Tristan: My obsession with sneakers all started back when I was in 7th Grade. I was super into Rob & Big so naturally anything DC put out with Rob Dyrdek’s name attached to it I had to have. I started taking my sneaker collection more serious in high school and at that time Nike basketball was my thing. I loved the stuff LeBron, Kobe, and KD were putting out and that’s also when I started working so every paycheck I earned went right into sneakers. Fast forward a few years later and my love for Nike was soon overshadowed by adidas, mostly due to Boost and Kanye. 

Question 6: What’s something that most people don’t know about you?:

Tristan: I’m normally an open book and I’m pretty vocal about most things, but I’d say something that most people don’t know about me is that I’m super big into home architecture and interior design. I’d say this has become something I’m starting to love more and more as I enter my young adult life, there is just something so visually pleasing about a well designed home or space; interior or exterior wise. I think it’s a great form of art.

Question 7: What do you do for a living?

Tristan: I am currently an adidas Field Marketing Agent for Archrival, and also one of nine agents in a new internship program through Archrival and adidas that has me working specifically on footwear tech and marketing for my fellow agents. I absolutely love what I do right now, but my end goal is being a part of the adidas Originals footwear design or marketing team at headquarters in Portland, Oregon in the next few years. 

Question 8: Where can people follow you on social media?

Tristan: You can follow me on Twitter at: @TristanBlair22 and my Instagram:  _tristanblair22_ 

I tend to post a lot of adidas footwear content on my Instagram, while Twitter is just more of funny content but again feel free, I’ll gladly follow you back!
