So last week, Sneaker News gave you a look into some sick sneaker collections compiled by a number of celebrities and professional athletes. But really, the true props go to those who spend the hours and hard-earned dollars to put together some insane sneaker collections, transforming empty garages into mini-shrines. Whether the sneaker collection is the most select gathering of grails or beaters, or if the collector has adopted the “if you build it, they will come” attitude of the ShoeZeum, we’ve seen some amazing ones over the years, so check out some of the great Sneaker Collections of the past and let us know which impresses you the most!
One of the finest gatherings of Air Jordan and Nike Basketball PE’s is under the ownership of winson_guo, who earlier this year filled us in with his impressive stash.
