Nike's SNKRS Day 2023: A Global Celebration

The Origins of SNKRS Day: A Sneaker Evolution

Nike has always been at the forefront of revolutionizing the sporting industry. When the brand introduced the Nike SNKRS app in 2015, it aimed to tackle challenges such as bot interference and complicated checkouts that often plagued sneaker enthusiasts during limited-edition releases. This platform gave birth to SNKRS Day, an annual event to celebrate the vibrant community it had cultivated.

SNKRS Day started as a European event featuring intermittent special-edition sneaker drops, live discussions, music performances, and more. The first-ever SNKRS Day kicked off on August 8, 2017, in nineteen European countries including the UK. The excitement soon gained momentum, and in 2019, the annual event was officially christened SNKRS Day.
