Written and compiled by Simon ‘Woody’ Wood, founder of the legendary Sneaker Freaker magazine has teamed with publishing company Phaidon to release Soled Out: The Golden Age of Sneaker Advertising, a 720-page homage to vintage print ads from some of the world’s most notable sneaker brands. Consisting of over 900 ads, the hardcover book is a veritable tome of sneaker history, one backed by nearly a decade of research and discovery.
