INSIDE THE SNEAKERHEAD: DJ WICH
_en DJ Wich a.k.a. Golden Touch is one of the most legendary Czech DJs and producers whether on the local scale or beyond. He is also known as one of the Masters of Air and his love for the Air bubble is very well documented. After building his beautiful house in the past few years, he dedicated one room to one of his passions - collecting sneakers. Tom was kind enough to show us his infamous sneaker room with custom made shelves and a rich collection of Nike sneakers of all kinds. He told me that some of his favorite types to collect are Air Jordan 1 Retro models in all alternatives, shapes and colors or the Off-White collection which is still releasing here and there. The biggest love, however, remains towards the visible Air and the biggest part of his collection consists of Air Max sneakers. From a really old beater to the newest additions or Nike iD adaptations, itβs all there. From the look at his kicks you can tell the man is keeping them all in order and well organized and clean. With this quantity, itβs quite admirable to be honest which I know a thing or two about as Iβm also a member of the 300+ club. In terms of other highlights of his collection, we can also find an original pair of Air Yeezy which is valued somewhere around 3K USD these days. Also, some time ago we focused on one of the rarest sneakers in his collection which is the Nike Air Max 1 βMasterβ in the white family and friends colorway.Β
Another great part of his house and passions is his music studio with a 3000+ pcs vinyl collection which is amazing and the atmosphere in the room resembles a Hollywood movie. :) Of course, you can find his best friend Bublina (Bubble) running around the instruments and helping to compose some new bangers. And yes, we are talking about the cat. So, all in all, Iβm really thankful that Tom welcomed us in his home, revealed a bit of his privacy and shared his great passion for the stuff we all admire on a daily basis.

_sk DJ Wich a.k.a. Golden Touch je jedenΓ½m z najlegendΓ‘rnejΕ‘Γch ΔeskΓ½ch DJov a producentov, ktorΓ½ pΓ΄sobΓ na naΕ‘ej scΓ©ne ale aj za jej hranicami. Je tieΕΎ znΓ‘my ako jeden z Δlenov skupiny Masters of Air a jeho lΓ‘ska k "vzduchovej bubline" je veΔΎmi znΓ‘ma. Po tom ako za poslednΓ½ch pΓ‘r rokov dokonΔil svoj ΓΊΕΎastnΓ½ domov, dedikoval miestnosΕ₯ jednej zo svojich najvΓ€ΔΕ‘Γch vΓ‘Ε‘nΓ - zbieraniu tenisiek. Tom bol natoΔΎko otvorenΓ½ a dobrΓ½, ΕΎe nΓ‘m ukΓ‘zal tento skvost obklopenΓ½ na mieru spravenΓ½mi policami, ktorΓ© sΓΊ zaplavenΓ© stovkami tenisiek Nike vΕ‘etkΓ½ch druhov a farieb. Povedal mi, ΕΎe niektorΓ© z jeho najobΔΎΓΊbenejΕ‘Γch tΓ©m v zbieranΓ tenisiek sΓΊ napr. Air Jordan 1 Retro vo vΕ‘etkΓ½ch farbΓ‘ch a formΓ‘ch ale aj kolekcia Virgila Abloha, ktorΓΊ postupne zbiera a rozΕ‘iruje. NajvΓ€ΔΕ‘ou lΓ‘skou vΕ‘ak pochopiteΔΎne ostΓ‘vajΓΊ tenisky s viditeΔΎnΓ½m vzduchom a najvΓ€ΔΕ‘ou ΔasΕ₯ou jeho zbierky sa tΓ½m pΓ‘dom stΓ‘vajΓΊ tenisky Air Max. Od najstarΕ‘Γch vynosenΓ½ch kusov aΕΎ po najnovΕ‘ie adaptΓ‘cie Nike iD, dalo sa tam nΓ‘jsΕ₯ naozaj ΔokoΔΎvek. Pri pohΔΎade na jeho botnΓk si Δlovek hneΔ vΕ‘imne poriadok, organizovanosΕ₯ a Δistotu tenisiek v Εom. Pri tak veΔΎkom poΔte je to pre mΕa naozaj obdivuhodnΓ© nakoΔΎko sΓ‘m patrΓm do klubu 300+ podobne ako TomΓ‘Ε‘. Δo sa tΓ½ka ostatnΓ½ch highlightov, stojΓ za spomenutie originΓ‘lny pΓ‘r Nike Air Yeezy, ktorΓ©ho cena sa v dneΕ‘nej dobe pohybuje okolo tritisΓc dolΓ‘rov. Tak isto v zΓ‘plave tenisiek nΓ‘jdeme aj jeden ultimΓ‘tne unikΓ‘tny kus a to Nike Air Max 1 'Master' v bielej farbe, ktorΓ‘ bola venovanΓ‘ len priateΔΎom a rodine pri prΓleΕΎitosti oslΓ‘v spomenutΓ©ho dokumentu, ktorΓ©ho bol sΓΊΔasΕ₯ou.
ΔalΕ‘ou zaujΓmavou ΔasΕ₯ou jeho prΓbytku je hudobnΓ© Ε‘tΓΊdio, v ktorom je zbierka pribliΕΎne 3000 kusov vinylov. KeΔ nΓ‘s pozval do tejto miestnosti, pripadal som si ako v Hollywoodskom filme :) Samozrejme keΔ Δlovek zaΔne skΓΊmaΕ₯ nΓ‘stroje okolo seba je dosΕ₯ pravdepodobnΓ©, ΕΎe narazΓ na Tomovu najlepΕ‘iu kamarΓ‘tku Bublinu (maΔku, pomenovanΓΊ podΔΎa hΓ‘dajte Δoho), ktorΓ‘ pomΓ‘ha skladaΕ₯ novΓ© bangre. Tak teda koniec koncov ostΓ‘vam TomΓ‘Ε‘ovi veΔΎmi vΔaΔnΓ½, ΕΎe nΓ‘s pohostil vo svojom domove a zdieΔΎal s nami kus jeho sΓΊkromia a vΓ‘Ε‘nΓ, ktorΓ½m sa uΕΎ dlhΓ© roky nepretrΕΎite venuje a rozvΓja stΓ‘le Δalej.
