Foreword, introduction and afterword by Bobbito Garcia.

“The definitive book on the rise of sneaker fanaticism.” –Paper magazine

Twenty years after its first release, and a decade since the most recent edition, this timeless, definitive volume on sneaker culture is finally back in print. Lavishly illustrated and remarkably comprehensive, Where’d You Get Those? is an insider’s account that traces New York City’s sneaker culture back to its earliest days. Describing how a small and dedicated group of sneaker consumers in the 1970s and early ’80s proved instrumental in establishing current corporate giants such as Nike and Adidas, sneaker aficionado Bobbito Garcia writes with exactitude and affection.
Chronicling the rise of sneakers through the lean years of the ’60s, the bulk of the book examines nearly 400 sneakers released in the golden years of 1970–87, via information-packed entries for each model, including all color combinations available, nicknames of particular shoe models, relevant athlete endorsements, and running commentary and stories from a rogues’ gallery of fanatics who weigh in on the pros and cons of each sneaker. Through lifestyle chapters such as “Arts and Crafts” (which details the process of customizing sneakers) and “Thou Shalt Not” (“The No-Nos of New York Sneakers”), Where’d You Get Those? interrogates this enduring subculture from every angle. This 20th anniversary classic edition features the cover artwork from the first edition, as well as essays collected from the 10th anniversary edition.
New York City native Bobbito Garcia (born 1966) is a writer, DJ, photographer, filmmaker and basketball player. Often credited as the first sneaker journalist, Garcia penned his landmark Source article “Confessions of a Sneaker Addict” in 1990 and has been documenting the culture ever since.

Small ingredient list -- BIG taste!
Size: 3.8 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Sweet Potato, Ring
This snack is tasty, given its simple formula of sweet potatoes, turkey, coconut, and soy protein isolate. The bag arrived at the house, and the girls were instantly ready for the latest and newest snack. There were four treats total in my bag - one for each baby. The smallest one (20 lbs), ironically, disappeared her treat faster than her three larger siblings (40 lbs). The bigger dogs savored their treats with smelling, licking, tasting, and chomping with elation on these tasty new treats. These chewies satisfy your girls between meals, which I noticed by them not bugging me for food hours before dinner. These seemed to do the trick and hold them over. A great appetizer, in my opinion.

My dog absolutely loves these treats
Size: 3.8 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Sweet Potato, Ring
These turkey + sweet potato treats are a hit with my dog. Likes: - Good size. Substantial enough to be classified as a "special treat". - Good ingredients and nutrition. - Zero issues with digestion. - Arrived fresh and in great condition. - Good value. Dislikes: - Like most treats, they don't last that long. They are no bully stick--they go faster. Overall my dog loves these treats!

Natural healthy dog treats.
Size: 3.8 Ounce (Pack of 1), Style: Sweet Potato, Ring
Our dog loves these treats. They're also not filled with the junk like in other treats. These are one maybe 2 ingredients only. Better for our pup.
