Grid-Like Shoe Exhibits

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

'SNEAKEROLOGY' by Espionage Displays Sneakers Similar to a Museum

— July 15, 2011 — Fashion
The art of 'the shoe' is obviously practice at 'SNEAKEROLOGY' by Espionage, a sneaker shoe shop located in Sydney. This unique store provides an unmatched experience when shopping, because of the fact that they display their shoes like they would at a museum. Each shoe has its own lit up cubicle where it stands on display next to a number card. The number cards are used to identify the shoes on a hi-tech stand that displays all the shoes in the store, along with designer information, other product information and size quantities in stock.

The grid-like museum style really exhibits each shoe individually and brings shopping to whole other level. Sneaker lovers and limited edition collectors rejoice, because 'SNEAKEROLOGY' by Espionage has a wide stock of popular and hard-to-find shoes.
