A must-have compendium, '1000 Deadstock Sneakers' presents the most desired pairs of authentic, unworn sneakers no longer available direct from retailers — or “deadstock” — from the last half century. Teaming up with streetwear journalist François Chevalier, trendsetting sneakerhead and infamous reseller Larry Deadstock curates the world's most coveted sneaker merchandise, and looks at the origins, history and trends of international sneaker culture in this dream volume. The edition features the story behind the first pair of Air Jordans, basketball legends LeBron James, Kobe Bryant, and Michael Jordan, and original ads for big brands from Nike to New Balance. A brilliant homage to the deadstock fashion and streetwear phenomenon, ABRAMS' '1000 Deadstock Sneakers' is an indispensable reference and unadulterated eye-candy for sneakerheads, influencers, collectors and contemporary culture aficionados.
