SNEAKERS – THE COMPLETE APP from THAMES & HUDSON and produced by the team at U-DOX is the ultimate trainer app. That’s not press release regurgitation, or said simply because we’ve got friends who worked on the content: it genuinely is the best app of its kind, by a long way.
The app acts as a digital accompaniment to the two books that predate it: SNEAKERS: THE COMPLETE COLLECTORS’ GUIDE and SNEAKERS: THE COMPLETE LIMITED EDITIONS GUIDE, both of which are essential reading material (and reference guides). Instead of simply transferring the printed books into a PDF-style download, the app has 360° high resolution views of every shoe, which you can flick through and study in detail. Amongst the classic and popular models, there are plenty of incredible rarities mixed in. When was the last time you saw the sample Stussy Huarache Lights or the Footpatrol Epics in glorious high definition? Exactly!
As well as the immaculately-photographed footwear (shot by Phil Aylen), there’s plenty of brand history in there too. There’s a visit to DAVE WHITE‘s studio, where you can hunt for the hidden shoes (and see some incredible unreleased samples), and a comprehensive look at many collaborators, with each of their shoes featured alongside useful data and information.
With over 500 trainers on display, it’s an invaluable fountain of knowledge and a definite purchase. SNEAKERS – THE COMPLETE APP is AVAILABLE NOW on the iTunes Store. It’s iPad-only for the moment: those of you viewing on such a device, can click here to purchase your download right now.
