- SASU Dunks w premium materials
- 3 colorways SASU show tees SA, H-Town, Dallas
- The most impressive size 13 collection ever!
- Lebron Display
- Wheaties Boxes
- PEs a plenty! Spurs! Cleats! Robinsons! etc.
- Fiesta Sneaker Display

Im sure there is more, but overall Great Event! I cant wait until next year!

Seriously though, it was great seein' all the new faces in addition to all the older heads holdin' it down. Thanks to everyone from far and wide whomade the pilgrimage (special shout out to electricbamboo who I've decided to take upon myself to nominate as an honorary South Texan-SHOOTS!

).

 

[jaijai84]

What can we say; SASU 08 was an overwhelming success. Big Up's to all the S.A. Fam who made this yearsshow possible; Fred, Art, Norm, Ucasta, Joesuf, Gabe and the rest of the crew who contributed there time and efforts. I would also like to thank all who madethe trip down for this years show. Jay aka ElectricBamboo thanks for making the long journey from your island paradise. Fahad of Motive 807 big up's forholding it down at the pre party and shutting it down with the crazy PE's. Big Up's to Deadstock, Brawnz and Kadoma, Ari (Nice pickups on the PE's)and everyone else who traveled from a far to show love at the show. With that said now on to the pic's.










I call this last picture "In the shadow of Greatness".......

 

[rvr10]

Great show guys. Glad i could make it.

 

[wesdenzel]

dope...man nice seein everyone!

 

[obiwonginobili]

Thanks Sneaks Up fam for making this happen-jai jai, Art, and Fred thanx for the drinks, Art thats the last time i chase a shot of tequila with a shot of jagerthat had my stomach twisted all weekend long. if i was acting weird on my way out of sneaks up it was cause i was so hungover and wasn't looking forward todriving back to laredo and i was dead tired. I had an awesome time at the pre-party and the show. I hadn't gotten that drunk in a while. I slept huggingthat tim duncan pe on sunday nite...for real. again thank you everyone from SA for making this happen and everyone from all over who came and made this showsuch a success. Cant wait for next year.

 

[kedabowl]

It was good to meet everyone this weekend!

The pre-party was awesome!

How long until Kixpo?

 

[ucasta]

heres the first round of pics from the Select party. Good to meet you Ignacio and Billy.

Pics from Saturday coming next...

 

[bwoodballa]

congrats on the great event and shout out to all my h-town supporters....

 

[t21d]

Decided to post and take pics of the participants rather than the shoes since the people MADE the show anyways.

 

[jaijai84]

Nice pic's Fred, getting very handy with the camera skills.....

 

[n2tha0]

hey guys check out the write up matt did on nice kicks......awesome

 

[nucleus one]

^^^What's with all the hate? The comments section is locked, so we can't even defend ourselves.
S'all good. This kid was probably one of the many that came by our table, pointed, ohhed and ahhed, snapped a pic, gave us daps, pounds, and hugs, butdidn't have the nuts to say $#!+ to my face. It's not like he didn't who was who, we all had DS tees.
JEFF aka ja2daedubblef, this is your personal invite to Dallas for KIXPO 2008, you get a display table for free, 10 free raffle tickets, passes to all pre- andpost parties/events, a KIXPO tee, and a Thug Boss callabo tee. All you gotta do is man-up, homie, and talk to me.

 

[n2tha0]

^^^^^^real talk!!!!thats whats up!

 

[xxdeadstockxx]

So I guess:

Frankenstein AF1's
Jordan DMP's
Shimizu Dunk SB's
Ghost Dunk SB's
Asia Exclusive Dunk Low Reflective
Air Max 90 Infrared's

all released last year. This was not even a snippet of our collection there are so many of us we brought 5 peair each.

Holla at us at Kixpo.

 

[n2tha0]

like matt said apparently some people have alot to still learn. Sneaks Up crew stands by deadstock for real....and for the record you could have just had thoseghost sbs on your table and thats it and STILL would have crushed it!!!!one love.....

 

[odomc1ty]

YO!
why the haters get 10 free tickets? that means the homies get like 20 then right???

-ARIS!

 

[electricbamboo]

Wow. I look like frankenstein in that pic, Jai Jai.

Just wanted to thank you all for a great show and hosting me in your lovely state of Texas. I just came from the doctor who told me I got some cold relatedinfection, so I will have to wait on posting more, but believe, I already miss texas, especially San Antonio already.

Much thanks to T21D for inviting me, and I hope to see lil Paulo and Gracie again, and thanks to everybody who brought me around to the great things about SanAntonio, like the southside, 09ers, Riverwalk, Goodtimes, and more. I am also very glad to meet Fahad at Motive, and I wish you and Manny at Select continuedsuccess.

Before I left for Texas, I was at a point where I thought after all these years, what good comes out of giving, if only the ones in it for themselves seem tosucceed? Thanks for proving to me, each and every one of you, for showing that giving is always good and the rewards come out in the long run.

Much respect to Aaron for the Southside tour and the education of fiesta (will try to do it my nephews on my birthday - I got some pinatas, salsa, and somecascarrones), Jai Jai - for the Malt House experience, Joesuf - Your tenacity at getting things done was impressive, Ant & Norm - Thanks for keeping theshow smooth, A.R.T. - That game was AWESOME, The Young Sneaks Up Crew - It was great meeting you Staci, Hector, and Natalie, Damien - I still like that NESShat, Gabe - Your art is super dope, Jason - Thanks for the margarita at the Taco Cabana, and the heads up on the state of sneaks, Ronnie - You the man, Josh& Daniel - I didn't forget you too, Aris - Man your shoes are always CLEAN, Info & Deadstock crew - Great meeting you guys, Brandon - Hopefully Ididn't get your name mixed up, but if you're the one who wanted to team up against some Rudos, then yup it's on, and Mike - good to meet you too,PR Mark - thanks for finding my El Drinko mask before it could never debut at the REBAR. Damn. So much names.

You know how much you guys made me enjoy San Antonio, especially the beautiful women there? I came back and, normally I have a BIG thing for them asian ladies,but your ladies have put a spell on me.

SHOOTS!

 

[M. Fresh]

Thanks for coming, I am still tripping out about the mask, it took me 30 minutes and talk with fred to realize it was you. You are welcomed back anytime

 

[spurfan21]

yeah you are welcomed back anytime electric bamboo even tho you forgot my name up there!^

ill be at kixpo with 20 free tickets.
