The Evolution will not be televised, but it may show up in the form of an early 90’s sneaker blog.  Yesterday I brought you back to what could have been with part 16’s  Japanese blog High Response.  For part 17 I’m bringing you back to a site that  was late 90’s goodness.  Back in the day during a journey through the internet looking for rare sneakers there were sites that were not living up to their potential,the ones that were above and beyond (usually message boards and stores) and then there were sites like Evolution Of Revolution that fit somewhere in between.

Jordan’s made their way to the pages of the blog and it was obvious from the banner that this would be the case but

not just in the way of sneakers.  There was a book feature

Then of course was the Nike section, which wasn’t flooded with Air Max 95’s.  Nope.  From Air Rifts

to  Lightning Presto’s and everything in between.  Dope kicks in some of the best colorways.  It was also refreshing because shoes like the Presto, Rift and Nike Air Moc didn’t get much love in the United States and if you were bored with Nike you could always check out fliks of various Reebok and Adidas models.  Keep in mind that yes, we sweat this stuff today because its rare but back then a lot of people just weren’t that into these models.
