New Sneaker Freaker Book Coming Soon: World's Greatest Sneaker Collectors

Following the stupendous success of The Ultimate Sneaker Book and SOLED OUT, Sneaker Freaker are back in the book game with a new 752-page title published with TASCHEN.

World’s Greatest Sneaker Collectors is a stonking journey into the priceless stockpiles and obsessive minds of footwear aficionados. From Tokyo to New York via London, Philadelphia, Melbourne and Stjørdal, no crumbled midsole is left unturned as over 2500 vintage classics, unique athlete SMUs, ‘unobtainium’ samples, handmade 1-of-1 prototypes, stratospherically-priced colabs, Player Exclusives and game-worn Jordans with multi-million-dollar price tags are lauded with gusto.

The endless quest for ‘Holy Grails’ is both blessing and curse as our collectors fiend, scheme and dream of ‘the one’ shoe they don’t yet own! Luxuriously photographed collector profiles are augmented with a series of informative ‘How-to’ guides stuffed with pro tips on sneaker photography, storage, insurance, cleaning and avoiding the counterfeit curse.

To celebrate the latest tome, Sneaker Freaker will be going on a world tour to present the World’s Greatest Sneaker Collectors in key cities around the globe. As always, we love to look after the diehards with a special Friends & Family edition. Wrapped in ‘SB’ pink, this version will be available exclusively from the SF Shop.

You can expect World’s Greatest Sneaker Collectors to hit shelves at all good book shops worldwide in the coming few months. Stay tuned for an exact release date and full Where to Buy guide.
