Description
This is a sneaker podcast featuring Anthony Levine, longtime collector and former Sneaker Youtuber. I love sneakers from all brands and created this podcast to share my pickups, thoughts on upcoming releases and sneaker related news, and what pairs I plan on getting. When I have sneaker lifestyle tips I will feature those as well.

There's been some online discourse crowning 2025 as a possible best year for sneakers. I give my thoughts on this, and then its onto the upcoming pairs! Thanks as always for listening AFS Squad!

This episode is a follow up to a previous episode which had implied how much money you could have for other things if you cut back on buying kicks. However, don't let this approach kill your enjoyment of sneakers! Also I dip into my reachbacks a bit to see if anything hit sales. Thanks as always for listening AFS Squad!

In this episode we talk about how kicks that are not going to sell out are mostly the ones I want, and if I should risk waiting on them to go on sale. Except of course the ones that are clearly limited. Plus the new kicks coming out! Thanks as always for listening AFS Squad!

This is a happy episode, as so many thing that were happening that I'd kind of fallen off of are back in full swing!

I feel like it wasn't too many episodes ago to where I was like "I don't see a need for me to own Foams given my current style". Yet here we are, I'm back with Coppers and a pair of Royals on the way and scheming on some Black Volts while I'm at it. I guess... never say never? Also I talk a bit about using Goat and StockX to see demand on a sneaker. Thanks as always for listening AFS Squad!
