Welcome to Buy Sneakers
This website is all about sneakers. It is run by people who love vintage sneakers. We wear sneakers, buy sneakers and we sell sneakers! We have created this website as a complete resource for researching and buying sneakers online.
Why We Love Vintage Sneakers
Sneakers have been around for a long time. They probably peaked at their coolest in the early 90’s with the advent of the Air Jordan, the LA Gear Lights and the Reebok Pump. These were the coolest shoes around then and they seem to be the coolest shoes around now – almost 20 years later.
We love sneakers because they compliment who you are as a person. You might get some fly vintage Reebok Pumps to go with your semi-formal outfit. You might sport some Nike Air Flights, all white, to go with your jeans and t-shirt. Whatever your taste, style, race or religion there is a sneaker out there for you.
What Types of Sneakers Are There?
When it comes to buying sneakers online there is more variety than you can imagine. You have thousands of different styles, shapes, colours, brands and designs. Here is a brief low-down of the most popular brands and styles.
The Nike Air Max 90s
It seems as though the Nike Air Max 90 is the most popular shoe around at the moment. Walk in to any college or university and you will see most of the kids sporting a multicoloured pair of these badboys.
They are fantastic street shoes. Light, comfortable and extremely stylish. Air Max 90s come in a range of styles and colours and Nike are forever releasing new versions of this old-time classic.
The Reebok Pump
I remember back in my school days every cool kid had a pair of Pumps. I never did but I looked on longingly. As soon as I had the money I went out and bought a pair of vintage copies, black and white with an orange pumper. Awesome!
The Reebok Pumps have taken off again and you can now see them everywhere. Gone are the days of just white and orange, the pumps now come in every colour you can imagine. You can even get them in bright lime green! To my mind the old black and orange are still the best! This shoe is comfortable but expensive. Every true sneaker fan must own a pair.
The Air Jordan
The Air Jordan revolutionized the sneaker world. It all started in 1985 when Nike teamed up with the world’s greatest basketball player to create a sneaker that would encapsulate his playing ability. The result: a shoe that was banned by the NBA for being to progressive.
Now the Air Jordan is a classic. Original Air Jordans go for up to $6,000 and are true vintage sneaker collectors items. They are a true sneaker – one that every sneaker fan respects.
