Prior to its debut in Asia, Sneakertopia was launched in Los Angeles back in 2019, and offered two smaller pop-up experiences at the Chongqing Jiebeifang International Consumer Festival in China in 2021 and Culture Cartel in Singapore last year.

To offer insights into the regional street culture scene, 16 Singaporeans and locally-based creatives, including artists Jahan Loh, Sam Lo, Soph O, Kristal Melson, Juls and design collective PHUNK, will showcase some of their work at the exhibition.
