This Australian exclusive exhibition features over 200 shoes as well as process material, photography, posters, videos, and artworks, charting the design and cultural journey of sneakers which challenged performance design, inspired subcultures, and infiltrated the world of fashion. Take a journey through the design process behind today’s most inventive shoes and delve into the lucrative resale market valued at over $10 billion.
The exhibition also goes behind the scenes, featuring new upcycling and sustainable design practices, new performance-enhancing technologies, unseen prototypes, and futuristic designs, both past and present.
