The first of many shoes to be showcased in Sneaker Freaker on behalf of UK's new online concept store, Sole Heaven is the Onitsuka Tiger Ultimate 81, a simple lightweight dog. The Ultimate style was used mainly for running before the brand discovered if they threw a few popping colourways to their designs, it would quickly catch on to become one of the most worn casual shoes on the block. And who can go past the White/Lemon/Sea Blue dopeness of this 81!
The concept of SoleHeaven.com was conceived on the streets of NYC after they discovered that the choice of sneakers available in the U.S. is absolutely "mouth watering" compared to that in the U.K. With this motivation, they decided to give the British public more of the footwear that they love!
At present the following brands are stocked: Puma, Nike, Gravis, Adidas, Boxfresh, Onitsuka Tiger. The current product is mostly unavailable in the UK when it comes to online retailers and whilst they will be stocking general release they also plan to include hard to come by stock in the near future.
SH will also be introducing you to several of the top customizers in the U.K. These talented individuals will be showcasing their work and answering a few questions about what's going on in the world of customs. Be sure to check out their video podcasts showcasing this work alongside product reviews.
