For some, collecting skateboarding or SB sneakers is nothing more than a mere hobby. However, for Chris Robinson, the SB Collector, it is something more than that. Ever since he bought his first pair of Nike shoes when he was 14, his mind has been set on being a sneakers collector. Although it all started as a hobby stemming from his love for fashion, sneaker hunting and collecting are now indispensable in his life.
Aside from purchasing more sneakers to add to his growing collection, Robinson also uses the fortune he gets from his career to help others through charities and shoe drives. For instance, he donated more than $15,000 to the Michael J. Fox Parkinson s Foundation. Furthermore, he purchased a pair of What the Doernbecher Nike Dunk sneakers through an eBay charity auction, with the money benefiting Doernbecher Children s Hospital.
