Over the past few years there has been a sneaker subculture that has been on the rise bringing with it attention and success.  Thanks to sneaker connoisseurs world wide the once leisure pursuit that initially had a cult following has crossed over to the mainstream.  The Sneaker culture consists of individuals who have a great interest and sometimes an intense passion for limited edition and customized sneakers.   

That same passion has helped establish a category within the footwear industry in which the likes of Nike, Adidas, Reebok and Jordan Brand has spawned limited edition lines and collections.

Most sneakers get the “limited edition” status when they are created and presented in different color schemes not widely available at retail locations and are not produced in large quantities.  These qualities add to the value and uniqueness of the sneakers and sometimes seem as a status symbol.

With the growing appeal for limited edition sneakers there have been many outlets in which to obtain collectible footwear. Such a demand has driven the prices of such “kicks” to luxury status. Many look for other sources to find reasonable pricing. In response to high pricing for limited edition kicks, Sneaker Cut Shoe Club steps in (no pun intended) to help those pockets out.

Any sneaker lover can become a member for a yearly membership fee.

Sneaker Cut Shoe Club is a club that gives it members an opportunity to purchase highly sought after kicks at retail price.  And the selection consists of footwear that is exclusive, high in demand and rare.  Prices are up 40% off of competitors marked up prices.

Sneaker Cut Shoe Club established early 2006 by CEO Rodrick Rainey.  The club boasts over 100 members and has forum where sneaker lovers can talk about kicks.  To show appreciation for members and customers Sneaker Cut Shoe Club will have promotions throughout September 18 – 20.

You’re really holding down the site! I’ve loving the content. As for the kicks. You know, I love to have some sneaks that no one else owns. I like those Jordan IV. I’ve been seeing a lot of young kids wearing those invisable sneaks. Can;t really see myself rocking them though.
