Designed by Victor Destrebecq and located right in the town centre, Supermarkett stands out from other stores with its unique presentation. As its name suggests, the shop looks like a supermarket. The trainers are displayed on stalls usually used for oranges, cherries, tomatoes, apples... The supermarket vibe adds a friendly touch to the place, which is proud of its carefully curated selections, ranging from Jordan to Yeezy, Adidas, New Balance and even Crocs (but only their Crocs x Salehe Bembury Horchata series… don't push it!). There's also a selection of second-hand trainers on offer, too.
