Shoe culture is adored by sneakerheads, but what about young middle and high school kids who subscribe to its addictiveness? It’s no secret that shoes create a class system for minority groups in schools, but how does someone measure the effects of its place? In this podcast, Jeff Pearlstine, co-owner of Solespace, a shoe store in Downtown Oakland, and Justin Walton, a current high school student, discuss the ways in which shoes effect/ affected their life in the school environment. Hosted by Elena Ruiz and produced by Elisa Minoue.
