First off a little background info on me… my name is Joey Abboud, I’m 23 years old and I’m a 4th year Film Student in Canada - so besides reppin PUMA all day I’m actually working on films and developping my filmmaking skills…
I grew up rocking PUMA kicks, I got my first pair when I was 8 bro!!! And since I grew up with Italians all my Italians friends rock’d PUMAS….and all their friends rock’d PUMAS and so on…. So I grew up in this underground movement of kids expressing their kicks!!! I remember seeing this 11 year old kid coming to school in his PUMA Suedes HiTops and had customized his laces, they were a different color and they were wider and fatter then regular laces
- and that really caught my attention…. After that I started collecting PUMA kicks like a fien…. It became addictive every pay check I’d get from working @ a Coffee shop I’d spend it on getting the latest PUMA kicks!!! When I was 16 I had around 30 different kicks and it just grew from there. Now I have well over 80 PUMA kicks and it’s still an addiction!!! But it’s a form of street expression!!!
Over year ago I had prolly the brightest idea ever and that was to create a interactive PUMA Lifestyle community for PUMA enthusiats. Because I knew there was a demand for it, I mean before PUMATALK, PUMA Heads would go online on any sneaker site and talk about PUMA & random kicks, there wasn’t a dedicated site just to talk about PUMA kicks!
PumaTalk has a bunch of benefiting features for members and guest, your Forum is dope filled with mad relevant information and we monitor it like crazy to ensure accuracy and relevancy from our members contributing to the Brand.
Moreover we educate our members/guests on the Brand we also give tips how to spots fake kicks online and to stay way from them!

We also will launch our Official PUMA Blog by the end of the weekend (sunday) if you want to see how it will look like here’s the address:

Skets-Story was founded last year; by a couple of friends, to show to the French sneaker community how a French forum can provide real good news and infos about a lot of brands like Nike, Adidas and other!
In spite of some French hype forums, our main passion is the Nike Air Max Plus.You cannot find best infos and news about those sneakers elsewhere. Our main goal is to provide a lot of pics and stories about Air Max’s models, Air Max Plus’s and others.
We’ve got the best Air Max Plus’s collectors, best infos about this model which is very popular in France and we wait for you to improve this!

Operated by Sneakerheads across the globe, MyShoeLife.com gives its members the autonomy to create, manage, and share their individual pages to everyone in the community.
In just a couple of months, the site has grown exponentially, and has become the haven for shoe collectors and lovers everywhere. The site is out to prove that one does not even have to own a single pair of shoes to be a sneakerhead. Instead, one just has to have the interest and love for shoes, which is, what ultimately fuels the growth our sub-culture, known as the “Sneaker-game”.
Stop by, create an account; check out the thousands of pictures that have already been posted; make a new friend or two; and just have fun with it. It’s our shoes…it’s our life.

(thx for the review Matthieu)
This forum is the meeting point of all french sneakerheads wether in France or living abroad. Much too often all the exclusives were left to the foreign, mostly american and asian forums and blogs, sneakers.fr is our chance to get a piece of the cake. The atmosphere on the forum is like no other I have experienced and is greatly responsible for my daily dose of good mood.
(thx for the review Sebastian)
We got some more reviews but they all say the same. Great forum and community for real sneaker addicts. France represent!
Sneaker and France? Don’t miss out on the sneakers.fr website. France and especially Paris has one of the most active sneaker movements in europe and this is their place online.
Some words from BBHewee:
This French website opened in early 2005, to satisfy the growing demands of French sneakerheads for their own sneaker community. It was created by longtime Niketalk member Aircharlo, with the help of CTers Mohamed and myself, BBHewee. What started small became soon a larger website, with news, blogs, videos, and obviously the re-designed forum. But towards the end of the year, an even larger website will open with archives, and other new ideas. Our notoriety grows, our collaborations with brands and stores are expanding, with events at Colette, and hopefully more to come. We get some exclusive info so it’s always worth a visit!
Comment from us:
We received a lot of reviews for this site. Fresh sneaker portal with loyal visitors and a lot of unique content. Time to learn French!
Sneakerplay is the beautiful sister, brother and mum of myspace. Built and designed strictly for sneakerheads it is one of the best places to connect, talk about sneakers or show your collections. They have innovative features like a battle system for sneakers and are one of our favorite sites out there.
Sneakerplay is the culture’s first social network. It is a next-generation social software designed specifically for style conscious and creative individuals—a place where sneaker enthusiasts can connect with friends, meet like minded individuals and express their unique styles.
Members are able to create profiles, showcase their latest kicks in the gallery, read their favorite blogs with SP’s Aggregator and there is also a pretty cool battle feature for the competitive types. As you know the battle is a universal feature within our culture whether it’s in the domains of art (graffiti), music (bboy’ing) or sports. Sneakerplay’s innovative battle system allows you to view, comment and rate ongoing battles.
The site is elegant in its simplicity and design; reminiscent of a fresh clean pair of white kicks! Look out for dope new features and remember Sneakerplay – All Day!!
