Sneakers are a crucial part of many people’s lives, and as sneakerheads, we totally get it. It’s easy to fall in love with the industry and find your calling there. If you’re in it because you’re a serial sneaker wearer, you’re welcome in. And if you’re in it because you like collecting kicks just like stamps, you’re also welcome. But when it comes to the resale culture, many draw the line. However, we can’t deny the crucial part sneaker resale plays in the big scheme of things. And now, the eBay Swap Em Out store reminded us how sneaker resale isn’t the only way to get kicks! Let’s take a look at the whole thing.
So, if you’re not looking to invest in sneakers to make money, this is something you’d like. Before sneaker reselling and the growth of the aftermarket, trading existed. I mean, it existed throughout the ages (all the way to prehistoric times) in different forms. And well, in the age of sneakers, people still trade them! In fact, on sneaker Reddit, trading is a big thing, especially if you’re looking for some less popular kicks. Moreover, the world is becoming more aware of the impact of fashion on the environment. So naturally, thrift shopping for pre-loved items is very much in vogue!
eBay Swap Em Out is a concept store that opened its doors for one day only on March 25, 2023, in London. Just like the name suggests, it was an opportunity for sneakerheads to trade in sneakers they don’t wear anymore. And here’s the coolest thing, you could trade the pair for a brand-new one! The new pair could be worth as much as three times the value of the kicks you traded.
We sure hope so! The event was a London one day-exclusive, so not everyone was lucky to attend. But who knows? Maybe a similar pop-up will find its way into North America, Asia, and more! In the meantime, keep trying to get the coolest kicks for retail with a sneaker bot like NSB3. Maybe the next cookout could end up becoming your door into the sneaker reselling world! If not, you’d definitely have a dope sneaker collection to flex on hand. If you wanna know more about sneaker botting, check this out! Godspeed
