About East Coast Kicks
Welcome to East Coast Kicks, where sneaker culture thrives, and dreams take flight. Our journey began with a passion for sneakers that ignited a desire to build a haven for fellow enthusiasts – a place where every step tells a story.
A Passion Ignited:
From day one, sneakers have been more than just footwear to us; they represent a vibrant culture and a means of self-expression. Even during work hours, our founder’s dedication to the sneaker world was undeniable, risking it all to buy and sell kicks on their phone. Eventually, fate led them back home, where the seeds of East Coast Kicks were sown.
A Dream Realized:
Established in June 2017, East Coast Kicks officially opened its doors in January 2018. Fuelled by a relentless passion for sneaker culture, we set out to create an unparalleled sneaker destination on the East Coast.

At East Coast Kicks, we specialize in curating the most coveted kicks from the biggest brands. Our selection boasts a wide range of iconic styles, including Jordan’s, Nike’s, Adidas, and Yeezy’s.
