Designed by British design studio dorothy and illustrated by Malik Thomas, “Inside Information: Sneakerheads” is a 50cm x 70cm art print that details almost two centuries of sneaker history. The illustration – available for purchase here – includes hundreds of miniature caricatures inside a monolithic Air Max 1… building? Key figures like Nike founder Bill Bowerman can be seen hanging out alongside contemporary figureheads like Kanye West, Virgil Abloh, and Pharrell Williams outside jumbo versions of the shoe’s key details like the air bubble. You have to see it to truly grasp the level of detail going on. Perfect for sneaker enthusiasts and fans of great design alike, it’s truly a sight to behold.

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
