Have You Ever Tried Explaining Sneaker Raffles To Non-Sneakerheads? 🤦‍♂️ - Sole Retriever Interview

On this episode of the Outside The Box Podcast, Nick Engvall talks with Harry and Cole, 2 of the 3 co-owners of Sole Retriever, a community and soon-to-be app that shares sneaker raffles from around the world with their audience to give them a better chance at copping the kicks they want. If you’re a member of the Sneaker History Discord, you already know how helpful their service can be. What’s even more impressive, is how the guys want to use Sole Retriever to make the sneaker world a better place.
