Posters, stickers and stencils cluttered every street corner in NYC. The need for a New media Space gave birth to their sneaker mission. Dogs, Kicks, Grips, Sneaks or whatever you want to call them. As Kids they tossed their old sneakers (like everyone else) when they got new ones. It was a symbol of change and a way to represent the hood. In 1999 they started making Wooden Dogs to continue their childhood habits. Since then thousands have been silkscreened, hand cut, laced, tossed and documented in the quest to go all globe.
