Complex 50 Best Stores 9

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”.

Is your store on this list? Peep the list below and let us know what you think, and in the meantime, check out the thorough list of Air Yeezy 2 release spots here before heading to Complex for the full feature.
