Harajuku-based sneaker store "KICKS LAB.

They have planned a photo book of hip-hop records focusing on sneakers, "KICKS LAB. presents "Bring The Kicks Back"", which will be released on Saturday, March 4.

DJ VIBLAM curated this album, selecting from his vast collection of hip-hop records only those that feature sneakers and boots on the jacket cover.

A total of 123 hip-hop albums and singles released in the 80s and 90s are listed.

The book includes many classic records that any hip-hop fan would know, as well as rare records that only those in the know would know. With sneaker boots at its core, this book takes you back in time to the hip-hop scene of the 80s and 90s with every turn of the page.

In the trilogy at the end of the book, DJ VIBLAM, MURO, and GORE-TEX (NITRO MICROPHONE UNDERGROUND) are invited to talk about the record jackets of the 80s and 90s, the way hip-hop artists wore them, and the transition of sneakers that were closely associated with them. The book is said to be a "sneaker book".

The contents are well worth reading, as they unravel the relationship between the sneakers and boots of the time and the hip-hop artists, as well as the memories of the three.

This will be a very important book in the hip-hop scene.
