About your host

Nick Engvall

Nick Engvall has spent over 20 years inside the sneaker industry, building Eastbay's first blog, leading Complex Sneakers as its own channel, and joining StockX as employee #9. He hosts the Sneaker History Podcast, runs The Sneaker Newsletter on Substack, and created Outside The Box as a space for the conversations that don't fit anywhere else. Sometimes those conversations are about sneakers. Usually they end up somewhere more interesting.

Subscribe to The Sneaker Newsletter!

The Sneaker Newsletter is an independent publication covering sneaker culture and the footwear business the way it actually is, not the way brands want you to see it. Industry analysis, untold stories, and twenty years of experience connecting what we wear to who we are.
