Each exhibit is accompanied with information detailing its history and significance, and fans will be able to immerse themselves in the story via a special display of the beloved original Air Max shoebox designs. If all this wasn't enough, attendees will also be able to purchase some of the rare models on show in real-time through the StockX platform.
Whether you're a hardcore sneakerhead, a footwear design aficionado, or even if you simply want to explore the blurred lines between footwear and art, this is one exhibition not to be missed.
