Sneaker Pimps (not to be confused with the trip hop band from Hartlepool) is a show touring all around the globe which features more than 1500 sneakers including rare and limited edition kicks, celebrity signed and artists collaboration, as well as a collection of other forms of art work such as fashion and photography inspired solely by the sneaker culture. It was founded in Sydney, Australia by Peter Fahey and and has put on over 200 shows since 2003. As you realize we're talking about the biggest sneaker and street art exhibition of the planet that has made a stop at countries such as Japan, Canada, New Zealand and Belgium and is moving constantly. The show's visitors also get to witness all kinds of events from live hip hop and beat-boxing shows with the likes of Dr Octagon, Kid Koala and the Beatnuts already performing there, to skateboarding and free running competitions. The main attraction though is the sneaker customization competition that takes place in every stop of the show. Some of the biggest names in the history of street art including Stash, Mr Cartoon and Kaws have been featured in this event. The show is currently on a tour around Asia
