From The Vaults: Sneaker Gifts
From the timeless classics to wild and limited-edition pieces, sneakers are a big part of our lives. Know someone who would be wildly surprised if you just happen to buy them a pair of the latest JB Classics? Some Royal Elastic slip ons for inside shoes, or eco-friendly creations by Terra Plana? Here are our picks of sneaker gifts from the vaults of our sneaker finding obsession. You wont find any of these pieces at a Foot Locker (that’s the point)– And, as of writing this, I’m 99% sure all shoes written about and referenced here, as well as pictured above, are available for sale somewhere.
