Ever wondered which sneakers are flying off the virtual shelves in your state? StockX, the go-to marketplace for all things collectible, just dropped some fascinating data revealing the most-bought sneaker in every single US state since 2024. And the results might just surprise you, showing a significant shift in the sneaker landscape!
The Unlikely King of the States
Prepare yourself: the ASICS Gel-1130 in the “Black/Silver” colorway is the undisputed champion, topping the charts in a whopping 20 states! This is a massive statement, indicating that ASICS has successfully captured widespread demand in the resale market, something few would have predicted just a few years ago. It’s a clear sign that the market is moving beyond traditional hype brands.
This dominance by ASICS is particularly noteworthy when you consider the brands it’s outperforming. The fact that ASICS is holding down more states than Nike, Jordan Brand, and Adidas combined speaks volumes about current consumer preferences and the evolving resale market. It highlights a growing appreciation for running silhouettes and lifestyle-focused models.
Nike’s Strong Showing and Jordan’s Shift
While ASICS takes the crown, Nike still holds a significant presence. The Nike Dunk Low leads in six states, with its classic black and white colorway from 2021 topping sales in five more. The ever-popular Air Force 1 Low “White” also claims the top spot in five states. Together, these Nike models cover a substantial portion of the country, proving their enduring appeal.
The Air Jordan 11 Retro “Legend Blue” (2024 release) makes a strong showing, ranking first in four states. However, the overall data suggests a noticeable shift away from Jordan Brand’s previous dominance. Its presence in only a handful of states compared to its historical stronghold indicates where the hype has migrated since 2024.
Other Notable Contenders
Other brands and models also made their mark. The Nike Kobe 6 Protro “Dodgers” is a top seller in two states, reflecting the continued strong demand for the Kobe line since Nike resumed production. Similarly, the Adidas Yeezy Foam RNNR “Onyx” also leads in two states. A few other sneakers, like the Converse Shai 001, Nike Air Vapormax Plus, and Adidas Samba OG “Cloud White,” each claimed a single state.
- ASICS Gel-1130 “Black/Silver”: Dominant in 20 states.
- Nike Dunk Low (various colorways): Leads in 6 states.
- Nike Air Force 1 Low “White”: Top in 5 states.
- Air Jordan 11 Retro “Legend Blue” (2024): Popular in 4 states.
- Nike Kobe 6 Protro “Dodgers”: Leads in 2 states.
- Adidas Yeezy Foam RNNR “Onyx”: Top in 2 states.
What This Data Tells Us
This comprehensive look at state-by-state sales on StockX paints a clear picture: the sneaker resale market is diversifying. While classic Nike models remain strong, the rise of ASICS, particularly the Gel-1130, signals a broader appeal for comfortable, stylish running-inspired sneakers. It’s a fascinating time for sneakerheads and collectors alike!
