Tell us about yourself.

“My name is Ashley and I am an 28 year old full-time beauty and lifestyle content creator and influencer based in New York City. So pretty much I do a lot of campaigns and just create content for social media consumption.”

How long have you been a sneaker lover?

“I’ve been a sneaker lover since elementary/junior high school. I’ve grown up on Nike Air Force 1s and Reebok Classics but I think when I got my first pair of Chicago 2s that’s when I really fell in love.”

Do you remember your introduction to the sneaker game?

“Faintly. I have stories. My parents would tell me when it was time for me to get new sneakers as a teeny tiny tot I would always go in and go for the Reebok Classics.”

What is your favorite pair of sneakers?

“My favorite pair of sneakers? Hmm. That’s very hard because I feel like silhouettes really get me but I think if I had to spend my last dollar it would be the Chicago 2s.”

What are you wearing now?

“I am wearing all Nike. I’m wearing a black Nike bodysuit, a pair of white Nike sportswear shorts, Stance socks that are David Bowie edition and the 2019 270 Reacts.”

What is your favorite sneaker colorway?

“I think my favorite sneaker colorway is definitely red, white and black.”

If you could collaborate with any sneaker brand, who would you collaborate with and why?

“I would definitely collaborate with Nike. I feel like at this point its just a given for me. I love how Nike just continues to push the culture forward, the styles they come out with, the textures that they’re merging together, and just the way that everything looks. Even some of the things that are items we might’ve seen in the past they always find a way to bring a new modern updated twist to it.”

What do you think the sneaker game is missing?

“I think the sneaker game is missing a lot more women. I feel like we are getting more into it now but I feel like it is a lot harder for women to get noticed versus men. I definitely think that’s one of the main things we’re currently missing.”
