Simon "Woody" Wood, Gründer und Herausgeber von Sneaker Freaker, dem OG Sneakermagazin, analysiert seit zwei Jahrzehnten Sneakerkult. Sein gesamter Erfahrungsschatz fließt in den neuen Band World's Greatest Sneaker Collectors: eine irre 752-Seiten-Reise durch die gut gefüllten Vitrinen und obzessiven Köpfe der geschicktesten Sammler des Planeten. Um mehr als 2.500 besondere Sneaker ins Rampenlicht zu holen, blieb zwischen Tokyo und New York, London, Philadelphia, Melbourne und Størdal keine bröckelnde Sohle verschont. Das Buch präsentiert Vintage-Klassiker, unverkäufliche Muster, handgefertigte Prototypen, sündhaft teure Collabs, Player Exclusives und abgewetzte "game-worn" Jordans mit millionenschwerem Preisschild. Die endlose Suche nach einem Lieblingssneaker von unschätzbarem Wert ist zugleich Fluch und Segen dieser besonderen Leidenschaft. Das Sammlerethos ist allgenwärtig, sie fiebern, jagen und suchen unermüdlich nach "dem einen" Schuh, der ihnen noch nicht gehört. Die in Szene gesetzten Sammlungen und Profile der Sneakerheads werden von einer Reihe Profitipps begleitet, wie man Sneaker fotografiert, richtig lagert, versichert, reinigt und auch Fälschungen vermeidet. Diese amüsanten Sammlergeschichten und unbezahlbaren Ratschläge sind die ultimative Eintrittskarte in die Welt der "true collectors".
