A glimpse into the lives of sneaker heads at UNC

Posted Feb 27, 2019
UNC defensive end Tomon Fox credited the desire “to be like Mike” for getting him involved in sneaker culture. Fox started his sneaker collection back as a freshman in high school. From there, his collection expanded to more than 40 pairs of sneakers and over 20 pairs of Jordans. Fox also has a pair of shoes that have a resale value that's over $2,500. (Daily Tar Heel)
