We found via graffiti artist TooFly that our pals at Femalesneakerfiend are working on publishing “Girls Got Kicks,” a book featuring female sneaker lovers from around the globe. The book will feature a combination of shots by Amanda Lopez (who shot TooFly above) plus images sent in from collectors. Lopez and Lori Lobenstine, founder of FSF, were recently interviewed by Sneakerfreaker and Lobenstine had this to say about women who collect, “It’s pretty easy to like kicks if you’re a guy. But if you’re a girl with a sick collection you’re going to face-down some folks who really doubt you. So I love female sneaker fiends for that glint in their eye, that swagger in their step and the extra knowledge they have to have for when guys assume they don’t.” Yes, we agree! And on that note, were any of you remember our pre-HS days when we were known as Chickswithkicks??
