Overall, I felt that Sneakerheadz did sneaker culture proud.

Perhaps "Sneakerheadz" needs a sequel, one that more directly interrogates the shoe manufacturers themselves about the hazards of pumping up so much hype about their product.

Rated: 2/4

The film places some blame for shoe addiction on media hype, yet it's also culpable of feeding that frenzy.

It might be a finely made commercial urging you to go out and buy some new shoes, but it's a commercial I had a good time watching.

Interesting documentary about people with an obsession with sneakers

The bits about the most rare shoes, and the violence were interesting, but it was mostly just the same guys talking about their obsession with shoes. Could have used more history in the changes in design and materials, or more wacky stories of the best/worst shoe collectors. Watched on Netflix with Sam at her place, October 8, 2016.

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

9/28/16 Netflix An interesting doc about an interesting topic. Would have enjoyed hearing a little more on The collector value of some sneakers. They also touched very briefly on the social phenomenon of people losing their lives over shoes and could have covered that in more depth but maybe that is a story for a full documentary down the road.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
