See this content in the original post

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

Dre: My current rotation includes a little bit of everything. From New Balance 997S,  air max 90’s, and a few Jordan’s, and a pair of Saucony and Asics here and there.

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

Dre: The last pair I unds’d were the New Balance 997S pink and grey. I’d say that’s probably the most comfortable sneaker in my current rotation. That extended ENCAP Reveal midsole is on point. 

Question 3: What’s your fave sneaker you currently own? 

Dre: I’d have to say my NB1 New Balance 992. The inspiration behind that one came from my hometown baseball team the ‘Baltimore Orioles’ and the colorblocking from the AJ1 SBB. That black, orange, and cream suede is on point! 

Question 4: What’s your must have grail? 

Dre: hahaha this was an easy one. Union Air Jordan 1 black toe. I struck out on every raffle, bid, and on SNKRS app. 

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

Dre: I grew up in the 80’s and 90’s so all the old sneaker ads basketball games, eastbay & footlocker catalogues and you can’t forget tv shows like Seinfeld, fresh prince, Martin and the Wayan’s brothers. 

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

Dre: I actually used to be a Dj. I started out when I was in 3rd grade and never looked back. The only reason I stopped at the time was because of college and I never really got back in to it. 

Question 7: What do you do for a living? 

Dre: I am a service rep for a Mercedes Benz dealership. I’ve been in the business for about 16 years now and I really enjoy what I do. So much that I was recognized by MBUSA and had the chance to visit the headquarters and tour parts of Europe as a thank you for my performance. A few times. 

Question 8: Where can people find you on social media ? YT, Snapchat, IG etc. 

Dre: IG: @dregoppy and here on Twitter @soleguru
