Got a sneaker wish?

Anyone have a sneaker related wish they'd like granted?

For me i'd love to see a New Balance factory in Australia. That'd be a dream. Local jobs, local materials. We'd then have Made in USA, Made in UK, and Made in AUS NB.

The first model to see 'Made in AUS' i'd have ...would be a retro of the M530.

I'd also have prices of sneakers in line with US/UK, so we could shop locally more often. And then as we bought more, we would receive more amounts of limited releases. And more often.

I want more sneakers than I could bother to count for a price that wont require me to win the lotto, but I guess that's "the game" for you...

@CHOPS, I'd rather they made them more like they did in '86...

my wish would be for re-issues rather than retros, make em exactly like they did originally...

really like Wils wish. that would be awesome.

mine - just release more of the fkn things. I don't give a shit what's limited or exclusive, or if a million people have a pair. I like what I like- make them more attainable

I wish that puma released a new-tech running silhouette worth buying,
hmm  faas is a step in the right direction at least

NB made in aus would be epic, sadly it is surely an impossibility sad

I'll second that, Australian Nike ID would be awesome.

More sneaker spots in Canberra and a decent Nike SB account would also be great.

Re: Got a sneaker wish?

base II is a mad wish!

Don't we(the minority) wish they did an early bird edition when releasing re-issue jordans(where the early, smaller quantities would have the NIKE AIR eidtions- right down to the box) and those who waits for the actual release gets the jordan brand releases. Just saying(sick of seeing crumbling gems everywhere)
