Sneaker Freaker

by Simon Wood

Sneaker Freaker Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

At once the supreme manifesto, the lavish catalog, and the journalistic revelation of the sneaker-collecting universe, Sneaker Freaker is the perfect, must-have document of a thriving subculture just now surfacing in the mainstream. The most prized sneakers are going for at least ten times their retail price on eBay. Celebrities and famous artists are being commissioned to design their own lines of sneakers. The release of a new pair of Nikes or Adidas—often produced especially for the thousands upon thousands of collectors—can set off all-night vigils and mini-riots in cities across the globe.

Synopsis:

Featuring both classic and new material in a highly designed, color package of essays, this title provides interviews with sneaker designers and enthusiasts, and photos of the most sought-after limited-edition sneakers ever made.
