It’s no secret that the sneaker industry has changed since its early heyday. The former subculture has evolved into a mainstream ecosystem with everyone wanting a highly-coveted pair of their own, resulting in a $30 billion aftermarket explosion that has captured the attention of mischievous money-makers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
