Retro
Have you always wanted to know what exactly retro means or what a retro actually is? No problem, in our exclusive sneaker lexicon we explain almost all the terms in the scene.
And if you can't find a term, feel free to write us a short message and one of us will help you as quickly as possible.
A retro is a new edition of a sneaker that has already been released in the past. Particularly popular retros are those that are as close as possible to the original. The various reissues often differ from one another, which is why the value can vary depending on the year of release and can sometimes be completely different. Basically, however, you can say that an older retro is always worth more money.
Famous retros from our scene:
One of the best-known retros are certainly the Air Jordan models, the originals of which have been around for a few years now. But the Yeezy brand has also made a name for itself in recent years with a few retros such as the Zebra. If you want information on special retros, check out our own blog from time to time.
