You just saw a sea of blue...a sea of blue boxes on the wall... This is an astounding find. A noble product, indeed...sneaker and sportswear archaeology at gu/p/42paj/stw: A decade earlier, two youths had shot and robbed Carlos Ruiz in the shop. It took him two years to walk again. Widowed and returning to work, he discovered the licence had changed hands, meaning all stockists needed to reapply for an account. “They sent a lot of forms to fill in,” he said. “I’m 65, I’ve lost my wife, I can barely walk.” He ripped the forms up. Since that tragic homecoming, Ruiz has kept hold of his old shoes, describing them as “a noble product”. He sits in the shop every day, amid the dust and cobwebs and columns of old stock, an obscure duty he sees as therapeutic.
