Caliroots
Cali Roots
Complex says: Yes, Cali Roots is in Europe, so shipping costs might be a little higher than you're used to. Still, their sale section is home to some Jordans that are long since sold out on this side of the pond.
Corgi
Corgishoe
Complex says: You will find long-since sold out classics, but you won't find prices on Corgishoe's website. Simply find the lowest price on a shoe, and he'll beat it. Always fair, and always with the best and most interesting selection, his store is a must.
Croation
Croatian Style
Complex says: One of the legendary resellers since the early days of Nike Talk, Croatianstyle delivers some of the most unique product on eBay. His SB selection is second to none.
Crooked Tongues
Crooked Tongues
Complex says: One of the OGs in the sneaker community, Crooked Tongues's online shop is quite consistent. Follow them on Twitter and Facebook, as they'll often share coupon codes which will offset the international shipping costs.
Deadstock
Deadstock Shoes
Complex says: Deadstockshoes seems too good to be true, but they're actually legit. While their prices are almost always below retail, most new pairs are pre-orders, so be prepared to play the waiting game.
EastWest
East West Worldwide
Complex says: East West doesn't have the same sneaker selection that they used to, but they still discount their Adidas and Vans lines pretty heavily. For true cheapskate status, follow them on Twitter for an additional 10% off.
Hanon
Hanon Shop
Complex says: The cheapest international seller, bar none. The Hanon-shop clearance section is home to some of the best sneaker deals out there. Sign up for their newsletter to be kept in the know.
Haven
Haven
Complex says: Haven is Canada's home to a number of premium sneaker and streetwear brands. Their clearance section features decent prices on some rare Adidas Originals and Nike Sportswear product.
Karmaloop
Karmaloop
Complex says: The granddaddy of online streetwear retailers, Karmaloop carries independents as well as some of the major brands. You shouldn't ever have to pay retail at Karmaloop, as they're always offering significant discount codes.
Kicks-Crew
Kicks-Crew
Complex says: An Asian shop, Kicks-Crew also delivers the goods early...and offers up the odd pair for surprisingly cheap (Black/Cement Jordan IIIs for around $200 months early?) The shipping, on the other hand, might be a few dollars.
Moose
Moose Limited
Complex says: Moose Ltd has come on strong in the last year, and carries a bunch of indie brands (Generic Surplus, Native, Clae, Gourmet, etc). Sign up for their email newsletter, and you'll get a coupon for between 15-25% off every few weeks.
NiceKicks
Nice Kicks
Complex says: Nice Kicks are at the top of the heap for sneaker blogs, but their web store is no joke either. You can't order much directly, but phone orders are accepted. Sign up for their newsletter to learn about some exclusive sale items.
Pick Your Shoes
Pick Your Shoes
Complex says: The granddaddy of sneaker re-sellers. They manage to get their hands on nearly every Nike and Jordan release weeks prior to the drop, and sell them for close to retail.
Plndr
PLNDR
Complex says: This Karmaloop-owned membership site offers up clearance footwear at great prices. Once again, this tends to be indie brands like Gourmet and Clae, but regardless, there are some great deals to be had
Quiglie
Quiglie
Complex says: Quiglie's online store is the equivalent of a needle in an eBay haystack. They carry a lot of random kicks, but they'll also have the odd crazy shoe. We've seen Lunar Rejuven8s sell for $44, and also some rainbow Wovens for less than $200.
Rifla
RIFLA
Complex says: Flight Club might have more pairs of shoes between their two locations, but Rif.la owns it in the price department. Extremely fair, and they always have great new product coming in.
Shaolin
Shaolin Kicks
Complex says: A go-to seller on eBay for clearance footwear. You won't find the hyped-up releases in this shop, but slept-on items can be had for mad cheap.
SoleStop
Sole Stop
Complex says: This Canadian store and consignment shop has a really great selection of shoes in their sale section. Very reasonable prices for some classics.
Sneakersnstuff
SneakersNStuff
Complex says: Another Swedish site whose collaborations alone make them worth checking out. Their clearance section is home to some decent prices as well, but as with most international sites... mind the shipping costs.
UptempoAir
Uptempo Air
Complex says: They carry a decent selection of Nike and Jordan stuff in their online shop and eBay store, with older kicks popping up from time to time at very reasonable prices.
