你是“运动鞋迷”吗?

  Sneakerhead is a person who collects, trades, or is passionate about running shoes.

  “运动鞋迷”指的是收集、交易或者对运动鞋非常痴迷的人。

  A sneakerhead may also be highly experienced in distinguishing between real and fake replica sneakers. Sneaker collecting is a hobby often manifested by the use and collection of shoes made for particular sports, particularly basketball and skateboarding.

  “运动鞋迷”有可能对辨别运动鞋中的真货和赝品非常有经验。收集运动鞋这种爱好通常通过特定体育运动所需运动鞋的使用和收集体现出来,特别是篮球鞋和滑板鞋。

  The birth of sneakerhead culture in the United States came in the 1980s and can be attributed to two major sources: basketball, specifically the emergence of Michael Jordan and his eponymous Air Jordan line of shoes released in 1985, and the growth of hip hop music.

  运动鞋迷文化在美国兴起于上世纪八十年代,有两大促成原因:篮球,特别是迈克尔-乔丹的出现及以本名命名的空中飞人运动鞋系列产品在1985年的发布;以及嘻哈音乐的流行。

  例句:

  “Michael Jordan is, without a doubt, the father of the sneakerhead culture, and still even today,” Luber said.

  鲁伯说:“迈克尔-乔丹无疑是运动鞋迷文化之父,直到今天也是。”
