You already know Sallys Sneakers as the international expert of elevating your style. The Danish delight began sharing her sneaker collection just two years ago and has since become a go-to for anyone looking to elevate their game. For the holidays we asked her to let us in on her secrets, revealing some of her favorite sleeper hits – the sneakers (and more) that others might ignore and you can rock for a unique look. These are Sallyā€™s Sleepers of the season.

adidas Yeezy QNTM (Lifestyle Model)

So the first item I think is highly underrated right now and below retail price on StockX is the adidas Yeezy QNTM (Lifestyle Model). I actually just got these for myself and Iā€™m almost certain the price on these will go up later on. Itā€™s a high-top Yeezy – which is different and I think they look really good styled with oversized jeans. Generally, Yeezy comfort is good which is another plus side of getting these.

adidas x Superstar Sean Wotherspoon Superearth

The second pair I definitely think many are sleeping on is the adidas x Sean Wotherspoon Superearth. Iā€™m actually surprised people arenā€™t getting these. I would say theyā€™re a piece of art mixed onto a classic silhouette. Honestly, whatā€™s not to like? Iā€™m a colorful girl when it comes to sneakers and I love good details which I think the Superearth are full of. Right now resell is close to retail which is why I think you guys should be making your move.

 

adidas Yeezy Desert Boot

Winter is coming which is why Iā€™ll introduce you to my last sleeper, the adidas Yeezy Desert Boot which is going for around retail as well. Iā€™m not a boot kind of person but if you know Denmark, you know itā€™s COLD (minus Celsius in winter months) which is why I have to wear something other than regular sneakers. I got my pair this year around January and was sad I didnā€™t get them earlier. Now telling you all, you know what you gotta do! (Please just size up, they run small <3)

BAPE Full 1st Camo Mask Yellow

If you know me, you know Iā€™m a mask kind of girl (not because of the pandemic but because I havenā€™t revealed my face yet on @sallyssneakers). Now that itā€™s a fashion statement more than ever to wear a mask – and also very practical itā€™s a good time to find something that also looks good! Bape is one of my favorite ā€œmaskā€ brands and not only is it a highly sought after and good quality brand but many of their masks are also around or below retail on StockX. I love the camo ones!

Nike x Olivia Kim Air Mowabb No Cover

Nike x Olivia Kim Air Mowabb is a pair Iā€™ve personally been sleeping on too! Iā€™ve been looking to add these to my collection for ages but honestly have just been very lazy around ordering! Iā€™ve seen numerous pictures of people styling this sneaker amazingly and I think theyā€™re a perfect fall sneaker given the color combo and them being hi-tops. These are also below retail which is why I think theyā€™re an even better cop.

Melody Ehsani x Jordan OG

The list goes on and on but I need to mention this one pair before I finish off my list. The Melody Ehsani x Jordan OG. Everyone knows her Jordan 1ā€™s are my favorite ever pair. This woman is definitely my favorite designer – the amount of thought and detail she puts into her sneaker designs are out of this world (in my opinion!). While Ehsaniā€™s Jordan 1ā€™s are reselling for around 1000$ – her second collaboration, also made exclusively for the ladies, is severely slept on. Grab those cherry babies before they go up, is my best advice on these!
