What makes a “great” sneaker store? Limited-edition collaborations? Great owners/employees with a rock-solid business attitude? Perhaps the occasional generous hook-up for your longstanding loyalty? There are a number of factors in play when separating the good from the great, and this list of the fifty best put forth by Complex covers a wide range of what defines “great”. Some sneaker stores on this list have that ‘barbershop’-like sense of community, others have an air of superiority, while one in particular – well, you need to be privileged just to enter and shop around.
