H-Town Sneaker Summit Summer '11

 

Rest In Peace Reggie E. Holloway

by Kadoma

Little Bro, I am so sorry to hear that you are gone and I am sad that I never got the chance to see you again to say goodbye. However I know that  you are in a better place, finally free and at peace, and it’s selfish of me to think that way. You are a real dude and people like you are few and far between. I remember you would always find the illest sneaker deals that would  leave us scratching our heads. I also remember that time you made every ones jaw drop at the Premium Goods anniversary party when you took home the  prize for best kicks in the house with your i.D. Air Forces! Way back when most folks didn’t even know you could make them! Most importantly I remember you were always there for me when ever I needed  your help and called upon you. You did everything in your power to help me and even comforted me at times when I was unsure of myself. Together we played a part in making and watching things happen for Houston and it’s fellow sneaker lovers that we never dreamed possible. I know that your going to be looking down and watching out for us as you always have. You will always be remembered as a part of our crew. We love you and miss you Reggie! May you rest in peace!

    My deepest condolences to the family for their loss….I did not know the young man personally. I work with his father who has always been a 1st class act in my eyes. Dad represents very well with his own collection of very nice sneakers….R.I.P

    Reggie was truly a respected member of the sneaker community. I bought many pairs from him over the years and it was a shock for me to read about his passing. My thoughts and wishes are with his family; he personifies the classiness we are strive to become and will be greatly missed.

    Sad to see that you’re gone. I don’t know you personally but all the years through uptowns, you made a good enough impression in all of us to remember you. It’s kinda hard to accept that you’re gone but life goes.. Pray that you’ll be in a better place, which we know because the good die young, but they’ll live forever, specially Uptowns. Your AF1 collection just keeps getting better and better. Rest in Peace Reginald.

    RIP. Way too young to be taken from us. Always a good dude, we were always on the hunt for size 13s cuz i remember you told me you always look for em for your boy lol. my man, my prayers are with you and your family. i always thought you were older than me but its crazy, you were 3 years younger than me. even tho i dont know you personally, this does hit me hard. you are a cool dude, God Bless.

    The shoe game is so much worse off without Reggie….he knew so much and was always willing to share his knowledge in a respectable and helpful way…..as an AF1 collector, this young man was one of the most respected guys in the community….I never met Reggie personally, but this news has broken my heart….he was way too young……May God bless his soul……with every single pair of AF1 ever made…..he would like that!
