Nice Kicks: Do you notice a difference in the shoe culture at the different places you are stationed?
SGT Fullwood: In Korea, the sneaker scene is ridiculous, and it’s pure over there. In Germany,? Jordans aren’t popular. I went to a German shoe store in 2010 and grabbed the Air Jordan 9/14 CDP for approximately $126.
Nice Kicks: Approximately, how many shoes do you own?
SGT Fullwood: About 100 pairs.
Nice Kicks: Which shoe is your holy grail?
SGT Fullwood: My holy grail is the Maroon VIs. It’s the best colorway to never retro.
Nice Kicks: Which shoe do you consider the most prized of your collection?
SGT Fullwood: Galaxy Foams. I went to a raffle and my two friends got them, but I didn’t. When I got home, another one of my friends told me to come get some shoes, and behold it was the Galaxy Foams. His response was, ‘You owe me lunch.’
Nice Kicks: How has being in the military helped/hurt your shoe collecting?
SGT Fullwood: Being in the military is the only reason I have all of my kicks.
