Out Of The Box
Humans have worn shoes for centuries. It's only lately that we've become obsessed with one particular genre. Out of the Box: The Rise of Sneaker Culture traces the origins of athletic shoe popularity from a set of spiked running shoes that pre-date the Lincoln administration to the latest Yeezys. This broad assortment draws on the collections of multiple companies and museums, as well as some private stashes, and is accompanied by interviews and essays, as well as a special section on the work of Nike legend Tinker Hatfield.
