Bobbito Garcia. The name is synonymous with our culture, not just sneaker culture, but culture as a whole. An Author, Journalist, TV Show Host, Radio Show Host, Photographer, Professional Basketball Player, Editor-in-Chief, Video Game Voice, Designer, Actor, and more, Bobbito Garcia's fingerprints are permanently imprinted on our generation. Though he has recently been propelled even further into the Sneaker Spotlight, Bobbito Garcia is a living legend whose life has effected our own for decades.
With three Nike Air Force 1 Lows already released under the Kool Bob Love x Nike collaboration, and with 4 more Kool Bob Love AF1 Highs set to release very soon, MaZe sat down with Bobbito to explore his pivotal position in Sneaker History. In part one of this multi part Video Feature, Bobbito speaks in depth on his "Confessions of a Sneaker Addict" article in The Source, his seminal book "Where'd You Get Those", and, the origin of his intense passion for sneakers.

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.
