▼a Introduction: placing sneakers within sociology -- Academic research on footwear -- Sneakers as a subculture: emerging from underground to upperground -- Sneakers as a symbol of manhood: wearing masculinity on their feet -- Sneakers as fashion: reclaiming masculine adornment -- The sneaker subculture from Durkheimian perspectives -- Conclusion: future directions and possibilities in footwear studies.
▼a "This is the first academic study of sneakers and the subculture that surrounds them. Since the 1980s, members of American sneaker subcultures, popularly known as "sneakerheads" or "sneakerholics", have created a distinctive identity for themselves, while sneaker manufacturers such as Reebok, Puma and Nike have become global fashion brands. How have sneakers come to gain this status and what makes them attractive? In what ways are sneaker subcultures bound up with gender identity and why are sneakerholics mostly men? Based on the author's own ethnographic fieldwork in New York, where sneaker subculture is said to have originated, this unique study traces the transformation of sneakers from sportswear to fashion symbol. Sneakers explores the obsessions and idiosyncrasies surrounding the sneaker phenomenon, from competitive subcultures to sneaker painting and artwork. It is a valuable contribution to the growing study of footwear in fashion studies and will appeal to students of fashion theory, gender studies, sociology and popular culture"--
