Leaving that issue aside, a lot of the ads in the 1970s used everyday athletes as models, which would have given them a relatable vibe to the average amateur athlete. Based in Melbourne, Woody is recognized worldwide for his encyclopedic knowledge, inimitable writing style, and steadfast role as an authentic ambassador for all things sneakers. SOLED OUT isn’t just a tribute to the evolution of athletic footwear, it’s also long overdue props for the army of creatives that laid the groundwork for a multi-billion dollar business. Most of the book spotlights ads from the ’70s to 2000, save for a handful of original Converse Chuck Taylor All Star ads from the ’30s.

Battle lines are frequently drawn, then crossed, in a flurry of visual machismo, quixotic scientific claims and endless sledging.

We do not have any information about the company SOLED OUT (WHITLEY BAY) LIMITED being in liquidation. Painstakingly assembled across more than a decade, SOLED OUT is an epic 720-page compendium of nearly 900 vintage adverts sourced from the golden age of sneakers. The Air Force 25 is one of the highlight sneakers of the year and this sneaker just keeps getting better and better. Adidas have many projects and releases for this year and here are some of sneakers that they have recently released.The smack-talk reached a crescendo in the 1990s when ASICS and Reebok traded barbs with Nike in a battle royale that included classics like ‘Just Doing It Doesn’t Do It’ and ‘Pump Up and Air Out’.

One of the most anticipated releases from Jordan Brand this year is definitely the Air Jordan III and with the success of the Pure and Black Cat Jordan IV last year, they are putting the same magic on the Jordan III. All the Air Force 25 that are part of this collection will become available at 255 Elizabeth Street beginning February 10th. There will be tons of sneaker fans at this event, so for those that plan on heading there, be prepared and bring out the heat for this special occasion.In these pages you can find the Nike ad featuring Ronald Reagan; a pair of Reeboks endorsed by Sigourney Weaver’s character, Ellen Ripley, from Alien; the Vans shoes aimed at ‘elite’ breakdancers; the early, digital Adidas shoe that could be connected up to a floppy disc drive; as well as celebrity appearances from MC Hammer, Michael Jackson and Paula Abdul. Read this book and you’ll learn that the last time Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars were worn by an NBA player was in the 1979-80 season; that Nike's 'Just Do It' slogan was the work of their long-standing advertising partners, Wieden+Kennedy; and that, in a world of heavy branding, some odd anomalies remain – such as the Japanese sneaker company ASICS simultaneously using both its old Onitsuka Tiger identity and its newer, current ASICS branding (which is an acronym for the Latin motto 'anima sana in corpore sano' or 'healthy soul in a healthy body').
