Let's be real. If you're in Europe, you know what Crepe City is. The UK's leading sneaker festival has grown to its current massive popularity stupid quickly, and for good reason. Thousands of sneakers are offered up for sale at each event, with thousands of people passing through, scoring their grails, and generally having a good time around like-minded people.
Saturday saw the event once again take up residence in London's Truman Brewery for one day only, and again, some outstanding sneakers were up for grabs. People weren't just leaving with heat though, there were also a lot of fire kicks worn to the event, as attendees brought their A-game to the biggest event on the UK's sneakerhead calendar.
This year's event saw the introduction of two new areas; the Crepe City Boutique, which played host to women's sneaker stalls and unisex streetwear, and The Basement, an area curated by the Facebook group, dedicated to young streetwear labels and hard-to-find clothing grails.
As always, Complex was there to make sure we caught the highlights of the event, so scroll for the run-through.
