It’s an outdated stereotype that only women are interested in shoes. Sneakers in particular, which have been produced in all kinds of shapes and colors in recent decades, have a large fan base. Rare pieces are sometimes worth millions – Krone+ shows you such examples.
It’s not always ‘just a shoe’ – even though it can sometimes look that way to a layman. The sneaker – previously simply: sneaker – is considered a cultural asset that is always shaped by what was generally influential at the time. Each subculture had its own typical model. Many shoes achieved cult status through sports icons or film and television. And limited editions or collaborations between brands such as Nike or Adidas and celebrities are sometimes so popular that their value runs into the thousands – rarely even into the millions.
