Following December 2020’s acquisition of Shoe Palace, UK retailer JD Sports has made another huge move in the sneaker world today with their DTLR Villa acquisition, Reuters reports. JD Sports acquired the US-based retailer for $495M USD, seizing ownership of the brand’s 247 locations across the United States. DTLR’s co-CEOs Glenn Gaynor and Scott Collins will continue with their management positions unaffected. To date, JD Sports now owns FootPatrol, FinishLine, Cloggs, Shoe Palace, and DTLR Villa, growing their presence in the realm of sneakers, sportswear, and streetwear even further than ever before.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
