“While speaking with other sneaker collectors, it was brought to my attention that there was no real presence of a sneaker community represented here in Miami,” said Jewell. “I also believe that sneakers, fashion, and art go hand-in-hand, and should be recognized on a larger scale. This is my humble attempt to integrate the sneaker world with the art world.”
