Sizeeleven.com | Erik Börjesson Letting Go Of His Sneakers

Erik Börjesson, co-founder of SNS and avid sneaker collector, is letting go of a huge amount of his personal sneaker collection.
As he states on Sizeeleven.com he has been collecting sneakers for 16 years now. Since the numbers of pairs went past 600 he decided to let go of many of them.

Eriks size is size 11. That is the reason why the sneakers for sale are US size 10.5 to 11.
At the moment about 400 pairs of Adidas, Nikes, Jordans, NBs, Reeboks, Pumas and other brands can be found online. Rumors have it that Erik still has about 300 more pairs that he will put up in the near future.

If you wear around size 11 and are on the lookout for some hard to find kicks you better be quick and check out the Sizeeleven.com rather soon than later.
