Taschen: Sneaker Freaker. World's Greatest Sneaker Collectors

Simon "Woody" Wood, founder and editor of Sneaker Freaker, the OG sneaker magazine, has been analysing sneaker cult for two decades. His entire wealth of experience flows into the new volume World's Greatest Sneaker Collectors: an insane 752-page journey through the well-stocked showcases and obsessive minds of the most skilled collectors on the into.

To bring more than 2,500 special sneakers into the spotlight, no crumbling sole was spared between Tokyo and New York, London, Philadelphia, Melbourne and Størdal. The book presents vintage classics, unsellable samples, handmade prototypes, sinfully expensive collabs, player exclusives and scuffed "game-worn" Jordans with million-dollar price tags.

The endless search for a favourite sneaker of priceless Closed is both the curse and the blessing of this particular passion. The collector ethos is all-consuming; they fever, hunt and search tirelessly for "that one" shoe that is not yet theirs.

The sneakerheads' staged collections and profiles are accompanied by a series of professional tips on how to photograph sneakers, store them properly, insure them, clean them and also avoid fakes. These amusing collector's stories and priceless advice are the ultimate ticket into the world of "true collectors".
