About The Sneaker Chosi

Soulye yo rele The Sneaker se yon soulye ki bon pou resepsyon ak ranp skate, li brit epi eleyan an menm tan. Koulè a se nwa mat ak detay an lò, ki gen ladan yon ti bijou tache sou lasèt la. Lè semèl la fin ize, yo ka ranplase l pou soulye a kapab dire lontan, prèske pou tout tan. Chak soulye koud endividyèlman pa atizan ki gen ladrès.
