Name: Derek Curry

Tell us a little about you and your position at the store
: I?m the nerd that started Politics. I have been into shoes for awhile now. Instead of putting on a suit and tie after I finished college, I decided to put everything into something I love doing.

What makes your store special? Customer service, knowledge of product, and we are the first sneaker boutique in Louisiana.

Shoe that got you hooked: Me and my mother camping out for the Black Jordan V?s.

Last pair you purchased: Nike Air Zoom Toki QS Rustic. I couldn?t pass on the nice leather. ?

Favorite pair you don?t own: Hmmm. I guess the cool grey Jordan 11?s

Amount of pairs you own: Around 250. I try to stay around that number. I sell or give away shoes that I?m not wearing or that I lost interest in.

Top three of all-time:

Nike Air Max 1

Nike Air max 90

Air Jordan III

Which upcoming release are you looking forward to?: Space Jam Jordan?s. I had to say it, sorry (Editor’s note: The “Space Jam” Air Jordan 11s have obviously released since this interview).

If you weren?t a Shop Owner you would be: Somewhere on Wall Street hating my life.

One reason why shoes matter: How else are you going to get where you are going?

One reason you love shoes: It?s my art.

One thing that you dislike about the shoe game: HYPE! Just buy what you like.
