What’s good, fam! It’s your boy Sykes back at it again with another KYW thread. Good news! We’ve got an interview coming on Monday with Sole Retreiver! We talk about the basics of raffles, how they work and what makes a raffle “good.” I think you’ll find a lot of useful stuff out of this.
I want to do more interviews/one-on-one’s with KYW in 2022 so I can bring you all more of the information about the game from experts you seek.
So I’d like to know from y’all who the folks out there you’d like to see me chat with in the coming year? I have my list of folks made already, but I want to know from you who you want to see come through. Maybe we’ll even do some Twitter Spaces in the near future?
Let me know your thoughts, fam! Hope you’re having a fantastic week.
So, not exactly experts per se, but I think it would be cool if you did interviews with fellow sneakerheads? Just normal people, doing some Q&A and showing off their favorites? I think that would be fun
Would be good to know what's going on inside the brands right now. We all have speculation, but how do some of them feel about Bots/Resell Culture, Supply Chain Issues, Price Increases, Talent Leaving, the Sneakerv3rse, etc. Always interested in old heads vs newbies entering the Culture as well to understood how things are evolving.
Chris from WearTesters and Jacques Slade!
I'd love this! I'm going to reach out.
adrian crawford
YES. Fantastic Idea.
Definitely would love to see Chris and Jacques - maybe Mache or someone like him designing their own limited run stuff?
Always a fan of listening to Tiffany Beers. Second Chris, Jacques and Russ. Might be fun to flip it around on someone like Brendan Dunne.
I know the newsletter is kinda industry focused but PJ Tucker would be pretty cool, maybe give him a guest spot on Thursday's shoe round-up
Would absolutely love to holler at PJ! That'd be a fantastic convo.
Love the Spaces idea. DP from SoleSavy would be great. Seth Fowler would be fun to talk about his $20 sneaker collection series.
Love these!
🔥
Talk to the Head of SNKRS. Ask them to explain SNKR pass and their plans for bot mitigation?
Whew this is a good one lol. I think we'd have a great convo but I'm not sure if they'd be down to do it now.

Maybe some readers you think? That might be a pretty fun idea.
Russ!
Definitely on my short list but, also, I'd really just have to give him the floor. That might actually be better as a guest column/edition.

I've reached out and tried to have this conversation w Nike specifically buuuuuut they're not really into it lol. I'll keep trying though.
Elizabeth Semmelhack! I know she'd be down too!
Already on the short list!
Infamouskayce definitely
