Upon its initial publication in 2003, Where’d You Get Those? was hailed by Vanity Fair as “The perfect primer on the sole of pop culture … a much needed compendium.” The New Yorker raved that “Garcia’s book is an anthropological trove,” while the New York Post noted that “ Where’d You Get Those? is a must.” Vogue gushed: “Garcia chronicles the gym shoe’s rise to cultural prominence with obsessive detail … Where’d You Get Those? is a welcome addition to New York cultural history.” Paper magazine called it “The definitive book on the rise of sneaker fanaticism,” and Time Out New York hailed it as “a rhapsodic, comprehensive chronicle.” Documenting more than 400 pairs of sneakers in a highly illustrated, chronological format, Where’d You Get Those? is simply a stone cold classic. Sneakers are fetishized by consumers worldwide, and dozens of subsequent sneakers books have come and gone, but none have come close to attracting the readership and unfettered adulation that this book has enjoyed. (Carnegie Mellon University even offers a class, Sneakerology 101, that uses Where’d You Get Those? as its main textbook.) Updates to the new edition include new sneakers inaugurated into the canon, as well as a new foreword, introduction and afterword. Review: I like it - I like it Review: I got this 10 years later, but JUST IN TIME... - Really interesting book showing the EARLY days of the sneaker game, being 38 I remember quite a bit of these shoes worn by my uncles and even some pairs I had as a kid. Just the visuals alone are really neat to look at and some of the comments by the contributors to the book were funny, you can feel the excitement from their words. This book is an acquired taste but I've been bitten by the bug so it was a must in my book. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 100 Reviews | ## Images ![Where'd You Get Those? 10th Anniversary Edition: New York City's Sneaker Culture: 1960-1987 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/615-8-LGZoL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I like it *by W***M on December 7, 2025* I like it ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I got this 10 years later, but JUST IN TIME... *by M***O on January 21, 2014* Really interesting book showing the EARLY days of the sneaker game, being 38 I remember quite a bit of these shoes worn by my uncles and even some pairs I had as a kid.

Classics, new ones, all of them. This was a bday gift that he loved. He even took the book to the sneaker store with him to see how close the classic sneakers looked in relation to the newer ones of the same brand. And also he's actually reading the book...and he wants to buy more sneaker books.... --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/320067-whered-you-get-those-10th-anniversary-edition-new-york-citys](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/320067-whered-you-get-those-10th-anniversary-edition-new-york-citys) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-10-06*
