MANILA, PHILIPPINES — To mark five decades of championing sneaker culture, sportswear company Foot Locker kicked off a month-long global celebration. The celebration began with their Since Day One campaign videos featuring various cultural icons, a limited edition collection with top sneaker brands, and a massive event celebrating the local sneaker community through Foot Locker Day. 

Since Day One stories

Known for its curated selection of top brands and deep community connections, Foot Locker has long been a global leader and an advocate of self-expression through sneaker culture. It is no surprise, then, that the focus of its Since Day One campaign was the stories of Foot Locker icons who also have made their own mark in their respective niches.
