I came for the shoes… What’s with the videos?
Throughout our sneaker related endeavors, we try to keep track of everything going on. Whether that be sneaker mystery box openings, vLogs of sneaker conventions and events, or documenting our restoration and customization processes, we’re always trying to bring you the latest that we at Sailboat Supplies have to offer. While our focus has always been on sneakers, we have expanded the breadth of our services throughout the years and hope to continue to provide services that you won’t find from other sneaker resellers, customization artists, or restoration artists. Take a look at some of the projects we have been involved with and videos that we have created during our journey!
Beater Boxes
A beater box, simply put, is a random mystery box of sneakers. There are many companies that now create and sell mystery boxes but if you do a little research, you’ll find that one of the original companies to begin selling mystery boxes is Sole Supremacy, a shop run out of Fremont, CA. Sole Supremacy offers a monthly membership service for their beater boxes (which is unfortunately a closed membership). Beater Boxes release once weekly, at 6pm PST, in limited quantities. The boxes are First Come First Serve (FCFS) and are typically limited to about 40-50 boxes amongst 100+ members. Each box is said to be profitable when sold on the appropriate market and sneakers are given some TLC. Take a look at some of my “Unboxing Videos” linked in on my YouTube channel below!

Sneaker Conventions
Over the last couple years, we at Sailboat Supplies have been attending a crazy number of sneaker conventions, expositions, and events across the nation. While some events are definitely more worth the time than others, we ALWAYS do our best to get footage to document our times at every different event that we go to. Take an insider look to get a behind the scenes view of what goes into the preparation, set up, and execution of attending a sneaker event as a vendor!
