Puffer Reds
By: Tom Hendrickson, 7/10/2008

More than just another downtown hip hop store, for 29 years Ypsilanti's Puffer Reds has been a nationally recognized tastemaker. Customers come from as far away as Ohio to shop there, Nike provides them with a custom shoe display and Adidas celebrated the Forum's 25th-Anniversary by creating a sneaker designed by the owner's 18 year-old son. The store has got street cred to spare.
