OSD-Ep176-The Money Show

Ep176-OSD-The Money Show (Yes, sneakers are discussed) (5/11/2011)

In Episode 176, the Crew discusses the impact that price increases in cotton, fuel and other raw materials and how it affects the cost of sneakers and many of the other products that we buy.  While OSD is not an “economics” talk show, we do discuss this topic because we have already begun to see that companies such as Adidas, Nike, Reebok, Puma, Saucony and Asics have increased their prices for their sneakers.  And, the kicker is we can expect prices to increase in the coming months.

New, fresh and funnier than ever, Episode 3 of Just Blame Chad hit the ‘Net yesterday and you can watch it on SneakerTube.

Also, you heard this on Ep.175, last week, the date for the Summer 2011 H-Town Sneaker Summit event is Sunday, July 31, 2011.

Registration for the OSD Class “Sneakers, their impact on lifestyles, culture and people of the 21st century” beginning on June 25, 2011, in New York City is still OPEN.  The 8-week course is for anyone that has OSD, and isn’t afraid to bare their sole.  More information about the class and how to register can be found here.
