Sold Out in Seconds: Sneakers, Resale, and the SNKRS Economy
Sneaker culture didn’t start as a market — it started as a movement.
In this episode of The Cost of Culture, host Christopher Harrison explores how sneakers went from personal expression to financial assets, and how the Nike SNKRS app transformed buying shoes into a system built on gamification, scarcity, and psychological engagement.
From the rise of resell culture to the emotional experience of taking an L, this episode breaks down how access replaced community, and how culture became something you compete for instead of share.
This isn’t just about sneakers.
It’s about what happens when passion becomes profit.
