He started collecting sneakers 10 years ago when designer sneakers were launched and themed shoes with interesting or unique designs started popping up. He used to collect Nike SB’s, but has since ventured on to different styles and brands.

His most expensive pair is the Nike Mag Back to the Future self-lacing sneakers. It is one of the rarest shoes as only 89 pairs were made available and the sales were for a good cause.

Though he has hundreds of shoes, he shares that he buys shoes weekly, especially if there are ones that he likes or there are some that are very rare. He shares that he purchases his shoes online, but sometimes also goes abroad to find the ones he likes. At the moment, he is still on the lookout for a size 11 Jordan 4 Eminem Royal Blue.

To share his love for shoes, Bigboy usually holds exhibits for them where other sneakerheads can see one-of-a-kind pairs. He also has a YouTube channel where he unboxes shoes and gives a tour of his massive shoe and toy collections.

What sets Bigboy apart from other shoe collectors is that he really wears the shoes he collects. He says the experience of having them comes with actually wearing them.
