Sample

Have you always wanted to know what exactly sample means or what it 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, just write us a message and we'll help you right away! Very easy and uncomplicated.

A sample is the prototype of a sneaker. Although the brands prohibit their resale, some of them end up on the resale market from time to time and go for quite a lot of money over the counter. During the development process of a sneaker, there are often several sample rounds before the final product is created.

Pro tip: Samples are worth the most money if they are clearly different from the mass-produced product. This is often the case with other materials, for example, because you'll immediately have a sneaker of which there are only a handful in the world.
