Whether it be must have sneaker books, artists, street art... Whatever sits good on a coffee table Very Happy

Not trainer related, but saw this book recently, pretty much sums up the evenings round mine . . . some of the parents on here might relate to it.

Yeah, we can definitely all relate, G. Werner Herzog did a reading at The New York Public Library a while back.

Nothing to do with being cool or trainers or anything really but if you like Star Wars, Dune and science fiction in general, get yourself a hold of the Night's Dawn trilogy (or 6 books for the modern, ADHD, reading yoot dem public) by Peter F Hamilton.
It's an immense book in both volume and profundity.
1.3 million words that will fly by!
