Today we're starting a new series called City Stories, where we take a close look at a city from around the world that has contributed in some significant way to sneaker history and culture. And in doing so, we'll be spotlighting a sneaker that is most closely associated with that city.
In Episode 1, we're spending time in the Big Apple, New York City with its favourite sneaker the Air Force 1, also known around New York as the Uptown.
It's a story that starts on the courts of Rucker Park in Harlem and ends with a pizza shop, a limited edition collab, and a $120,000 piece of footwear history. So come join us on the streets of the city that never sleeps and become an expert on the topic. Enjoy!
