I Really Like Sneakers.

You won’t find relentless posts of release info or over-hyped repetitiveness here. My goal is to provide an educated, informative, and thought-provoking look at the footwear industry, the fast-paced world of sneakers, and all of the adjacent niches and topics that won’t fit the narrative of publishers looking to score free products or big ad dollars. I believe in the power of storytelling, being the narrative, and that constructive criticism is the only way for improvement.

The name of this newsletter has evolved many times but when it comes down to it, this Substack is my place to talk some constructive sh!t, hype up the people in the industry that I love, and hopefully get you to tell someone you like their kicks today.

If the insights you’ve read here could benefit your company, get in touch, I’d be happy to talk about how we can work together.

You can find more at SneakerHistory.com or on my personal site at NickEngvall.com.
