Sneaker History

Sneaker comes from neak, which in turn derives from the old English word snican. Although at the beginning it was translated as "wishing" or "chasing", over the years it changed its meaning to "crawl" or "crawl". In 1500, sneaking referred to "sneaking away" or "walking stealthily, so no one sees you" and was very much related to stealing. So in 1643, thieves were also called sneaks. Only, ironically, the footwear of that time did not allow them to be very stealthy. Until in the 19th century shoes with rubber soles began to be manufactured! Since then, these shoes became his best allies, and it was when the meaning of sneaker was born.

So much so that in 1887, according to Today I Found Out, the term sneakers appeared in the Boston Journal of Education, where it was said that school boys called tennis shoes

The hypebeast style is a series of streetwear clothes: going with very expensive and limited clothes such as Supreme, LuisVuitton, Bape, Yeezy and others. This style is not very economical since these brands are very limited and very difficult to find. If the purchases in their own stores are not so expensive since the business is in resale (since the price can increase its price 5 times more). All these garments are combined with each other making outfits of up to $ 2000. All this without counting chains, watches and belts up to $ 3,000. These brands were announced in the US and from there they spread. Currently they are very famous at the expense of the US rags like XXXTentacion, Lil Xan, Drake and others. In Spain there are some people who wear this style. They stay to show their clothes, compare them among others and even make exchanges; There are several Spanish Youtubers like byCaLiTos or iByre who make streetwear videos interviewing people with that style or show their own
