Long before this site existed, I was already promoting sneaker stores worldwide through niketalk.com by posting photos, compiling city sneaker guides plus store updates here and overseas. One of the spots I always visit whenever I'm in Hong Kong is my buddy Billy's store Da Hood. What started out as a lone store in Causeway Bay and my favorite on Chatham Road soon branched out into several shops on Fa Yuen St. (Sneaker Street) and one in Shanghai, China. He's even opened his own adidas, Converse and Vans stores in Mongkok. To say that he has set-up the framework for the sneaker scene in Hong Kong is an accurate description of what he has done in the past 10 years.

On Tuesday, he will turn it up a notch again by hosting Supra and its skate team for an autograph signing at Da Hood (102 Fa Yuen St.) plus a team demo and game of skate competition at Mei Foo Skate Park on Wednesday. (Mei Foo Station by the Tsuen Wan Line)
