Sneakers Hub returns to Naples

After the success of the first edition, Sneakers Hub returns to the location of the Duel Club in Naples on 18 and 19 September. The only event dedicated to the world of streetwear and sneakers, Sneakers Hub immediately became a point of reference for the community, welcoming fans and professionals in its areas and in the activities organized for the occasion. Starting from last year's success, for this second edition the aim is to raise the bar further, expanding even more the number of themes and realities present. The market, for example, will not be focused solely on sneakers, but will embrace all the different aspects of the sector with departments dedicated to accessories, clothing, emerging brands, music and art.

Similarly, the talk area will see a greater number of guests, including Guido Genicco, Gionata Pigozzi, Mike Frutto, Federico Barengo, Andrea Sibaldi, Daniele Valente and Attilio Fuocolento, presented by Marco Rizzi as part of the Knowledge is Power project curated by Black Box coordinated by Gianluca Salute and Marco Rossetto who will mark the rhythm of the various talks. While the skate park, organized by the London Vomero store, will be able to count on the involvement of Vans to set up a professional track with free admission. There will also be a 3 vs 3 street basketball tournament and a streetsoccertournament, the SAN GENNARO’S CUP organized by nss sports. The entire area dedicated to sport will be set up and coordinated by Urban Jungle, partner of the event. Art will play a central role not only with the presence of graffiti and breakdance, the latter curated by the dancer and choreographer Massimo Balestra, but also with the setting up of installations with the exhibition of memorabilia with the intention of creating a small SneanersHub museum to explore different timelines on a journey through the history of sneakers and the streetwear community.

There will be workshops, a moment of collective aggregation in which some names in the streetwear world will make their knowledge available to fans. Among the workshops scheduled, that of Jacopo De Carli "Sneakers Hybrid", that of Stefano Grasso and Diletta Pecchia "Match The Merch" and the "Bandana Workshop" curated by Angela Martone and Francesca Cimmaruta. The appointment is for 18 and 19 September in Naples at the Duel Club. The presales are already open, you just have to take your ticket.
