Who wants to get their hands on the newly released Yeezys or Jordans as soon as hit the market?
Everyone.
Sneakers are one big piece to the puzzle of putting together a great fit. The perfect set of clothing from top to bottom can make a huge difference in the number of likes, comments, and the amount of fire emojis you get when you post the fit on social media. Sneaker release dates have become a phenomenon in the culture of this day and age. The question is, if one cannot purchase those sneakers at one’s local Footlocker or Kick USA, where do they go? And where can one match these sneakers with the right apparel?

One place in particular for starters is Jeffersons a clothing store located in Bergenfield, NJ.
For those flame emoji like, exclusive kicks, you hit up 201Kickme.
On Saturday, October 28th, the retail brand teamed up with the team for an exclusive pop up shop. During pop-up shops, retail stores often offer once in a lifetime exclusives and discounts to customers. This is what occurred this past weekend.
From your favorite Yeezy colorways, to your favorite pro sports team’s throwback jersey; you name it, they had it.
“We wanted to show people the sneaker culture and mix fashion with the best sneakers as well,” stated one of 201Kickme’s co-owners. “Also, it’s always good to support local businesses who provide great product.”
201Kickme launched early in spring of 2017. The partnership with Jefferson Apparel and Accessories began in September. For the two New Jersey brands, Saturday’s pop up show was a success. As a result, they plan to put together more pop up shops in the future. Be sure to follow these up and coming branding juggernauts on social media for exclusives on sneakers, clothing and the next pop up shop for you to take advantage of.
