Just a few blocks from the OSU campus and Stillwater High School, Stilly Kicks has become the city’s place to go for rare and hard-to-find sneakers. He sells about a hundred pairs in a good month, and his most expensive set — a Nike Air Jordan/Christian Dior mashup — has a $6,500 price tag. It’s not uncommon to see a mix of high school students and local businesspeople browsing right alongside Cowboy and Cowgirl student-athletes and coaches. Shortly after opening, Fernandes-Flack was at a sneaker show in Oklahoma City and he happened to bump into the guy his entrepreneurship professor had been bragging about. For Lacarbonara, he remembers being floored by the fact that a proper sneaker store had opened in Stillwater, and by a college student, nonetheless. He felt like he was looking into a mirror when he shook hands with Fernandes-Flack for the first time.
