Collection: Sneakers
The term "sneaker" emerged in the 1880s, as the rubber sole made these shoes virtually noiseless compared to traditional leather-soled footwear. The name "sneaker" derived from the fact that people could walk silently, or "sneak," without making a sound.
In the 1970s, another pivotal moment in sneaker history occurred with the emergence of Nike. Founded by Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight, Nike revolutionized the sneaker industry by introducing innovative designs and technologies. The release of the Nike Air Max in 1987, featuring a visible air cushioning unit, marked a significant advancement in sneaker comfort and performance.
Throughout the late 20th century and into the 21st century, sneakers evolved beyond their athletic origins and became a prominent fashion accessory. The rise of hip-hop culture and sneaker collaborations with celebrities and designers further propelled their popularity. Sneaker collecting and reselling became a lucrative market, with limited edition releases often selling out within minutes.
Today, sneakers have become a global phenomenon, transcending gender, age, and social boundaries. They continue to evolve in terms of design, technology, and cultural significance. From athletic performance to street style, sneakers have left an indelible mark on fashion and society, representing the intersection of comfort, functionality, and self-expression.
