One of the UK's biggest sneaker resale sites, incredibly recognisable branding with a good social presence and a solidified name in the sneaker industry.
The brand, a UK-based sneaker business established in 2019, has gained significant traction within the streetwear community due to its strong trademarked brand identity and wide recognition. It boasts robust SEO rankings for key search terms and has a vast array of high-quality visual assets for social media, advertising, and publications. Although stock is not included in the sale, buyers have access to a wholesale supplier with over £1.5M in rare sneakers and activewear that can directly dropship to customers. Custom branded floormats, industrial racking, and professional lighting equipment are optionally included.
The brand is currently operating with a temporary pause on paid advertising, impacting turnover. Founded with the vision of becoming Europe’s largest streetwear store, the decision to sell is driven by personal reasons. Key benefits of the business include a comprehensive email marketing strategy, a successful customer rewards program, and exposure to diverse markets. The primary clientele includes Gen Z and streetwear enthusiasts, who purchase multiple sneaker pairs annually for self-expression.
King Of Kicks has experienced steady revenue growth, although the competitive sneaker market presents challenges. The brand's solid foundation and ability to foster trust have been key to its success. Seasonal sales peaks occur in the lead-up to summer and Christmas. As preparations for the sale continue, extensive brand assets and support during transition will be available to the new owner, ensuring a seamless takeover and continued success leveraging the established brand identity and customer loyalty.
