Editor’s note: SFU goes in from the land down under once again. DJ Pinky brings us his adventures as a sneaker fiend visiting Melbourne to satisfy his soul in his quest for rubber soles.

Ah, it’s Saturday morning (I DJ’d the club last night and got home @ 6am) and I woke up to my son whispering to me to wake up… So it’s 11am and I got stuff all sleep and my fiance(who is 20 odd weeks pregnent with our daughter) had a restless night as she does every night, but cos she love me and understands my obsession for sneakers we headed up to Melbourne to the Niketown factory sale. Turns out there was a sale on top of a sale and a massive line like they were lining up for concert tickets.

So we waited in line and found out they had 40% off the already reduced sale price…HOLY SHIT!. (explains the line) We only had to line up for like 15 min or so which was not bad, we got into the “NIKE MAD HOUSE” and went straight to the kicks and yeah I picked up a couple of pairs, but these ones are the best I think, they’re AF1 supreme max air, the colourway is crazy cool, fluro with the grey/chrome and they have some printing on the inner sole(AF1-25, AF1-20, 5-AF1)

So a couple of weeks after that trip up to NIKETOWN we headed up to Melbourne again for a birthday lunch and I had heard that Niketown was having a sale (40% again) on their back wall kicks (the stock that there is only a couple of pairs left or weird sizes and shit) and I remembered from last time I was there that there were a couple of of pairs I wanted so I had to go check them out…

Aahhh this time I found one pair on the back wall and one pair on the samples shelf. I got this sweet pair of Dunks – Year of the pig, pink on pink on pink (pink is punk) for $70AUS and also these Sky force Mid’s (i dubbed them silver surfers) from the sample shelf they were $40AUS…
