KICKS & SNARE
The Deadstock Sneaker Buy/Sell/Trade Party
-----------------------------------------------------
Presented by FAMILY TREE
+Sponsored by: IRIS, Deadly Design, SKAM, MORE Creative, Mixtape Massacre & Xixgon International.
-----------------------------------------------------
We’ve got mad love for sneakers and mad love for music!
This event is dedicated to the people who feel the same way.
-----------------------------------------------------
Sneakers and music have been intertwined since the beginning…
More prominent in the early 80s, the ‘Golden Era’ gave birth to a new sound which went hand in hand with distinctive style and fresh sneakers:
from Run DMC to Adidas, Boogie Down Productions to Air Jordan’s, etc.
The tradition still continues on today: from De La Soul to their own Dunk SB’s, Yeezy to Yeezy’s…
No wonder why we’ve got a fix for Kicks and Snare.

FAMILY TREE BUY/SELL/TRADE SUGGESTIONS:
1. Buyers beware. If the deal is too good to be true, it probably is!
2. Exchange contact information to better verify the legitimacy of the transaction
3. Proof of purchase, authenticity and identity helps to avoid product confusion
4. Check for references of the seller. While there still is no guarantee, established sellers/traders will normally have good feedback from satisfied customers
5. Do your research and make sure you know what you are purchasing. Attempt to get all the relevant information such as conditions/usage of the product, other things that are included with the purchase of the primary product or service, and copies of the receipt or warranty cards.
6. Inspect the shoes carefully.
7. Plan how to store, secure, and transport shoes sold, bought, or traded for at this event
8. Sellers: we suggest that you create and print product lists with details and pricing for buyers
9. Receipts or records of transactions are advised but are the mutual responsibility of both buyer and seller.
10. Add integrity, honour, and credibility to our local scene. Have fun and stay for the party!
