Retailer of the Year is about recognising the stores that go beyond just selling sneakers, they’re the lifeblood of our community. These are the places where sneakerheads connect, discover, and experience the culture firsthand. For many of us, retailers are the first touchpoint for accessing the sneakers we love, and the ones that stand out don’t just sell shoes, they create unforgettable experiences.
In 2024, the best retailers didn’t just meet expectations, they exceeded them. From hosting events that brought the community together to offering seamless online drops, they set the standard for what it means to truly serve the sneaker world. It’s not just about the products on the shelves, it’s about the vibe, the loyalty, and the feeling you get when you walk through the doors (or log onto their site).
These stores play a critical role in shaping the culture. Whether they’re championing local designers, curating exclusive releases, or providing unparalleled customer experiences, great retailers are the backbone of sneaker culture. They’re the places where we’ve lined up for hours, celebrated big drops, and connected with others who share our passion.
