The bell rang for Round 2 of the DXC NYC yesterday at Club Show in Times Square. With over 10 vendor tables, the DXC brought out many of Sneaker Culture's familiar faces. Vendor tables included SBWear, HeatSlingers, Kicksclusive, Palis Clothing, CantStopTheKicks, SneakTip, Sneaker Spot, Akademiks, and several personal collectors looking to shed some extra heat. As the vendors were busy setting up inside, the line outside grew larger and larger. Once the door's to the Club opened, the floor was immediately flooded with people looking to trade, sell, and buy sneakers ranging from Paris SBs, to SBTG x Adidas Superstars, to Mork and Mindy SBs, to Laser IVs, to much more. Ed Lover, Power 105.1 Radio Personality and well known Sneaker Collector, also visited the event, selling a pair of "Invisible Woman" Air Force 1s and picking up a pair of Air Force 1 Low "Zincs".
As the Dominican Day Parade continued to rage outside, the DXC NYC continued to stay busy throughout the day with kix flying around the room at rapid speed. If you missed this round of the DXC NYC, Round 3 is already set for this October.

MaZe is the founder of KixandtheCity.com. He has been rocking fresh sneakers since his teenage years in the early 90's. Now, his collection tallies somewhere near 500 pairs and includes everything from GRs, to QSs, to TZs, to 1 of 1s, to PEs, to Friends and Familys, and anything, and everything in between. His favorite sneaker of all time is the Air Jordan VIII. Beyond loving the physical sneaker, MaZe loves the culture behind it. When MaZe is not in front of the PC working on KATC, he's probably copping kix and making moves.

I LOVE SHOES!!!!!
As a female, it was a disappointing event!! Some nice kicks for the dudes but nothing to sweat
Id carry womans shoes if they made some heat- NEWS FLASH -- they dont.
the majority of the designers are male. if u know any of them, tell them to give some love to the fems.-NEWS FLASH- i got $$ to burn otherwise i'll start designing my own kicks
Make the kicks then, they will probably be wack. Like some Fapes or Clear Jordan 7's
LOL. Not a wack bone in my body. I will always be fresh til death.Tell me where your store is & i'll see if you got heat. I bet the sneaker show @ Avalon NYC on Fri the 13th was wack. I passed by & saw all these peeps waiting on line for what? What a waste of time!
Hella dunks im lovin it!
yo when is the next event???is there any in the summer???
