The resale market has accelerated at an

unprecedented rate and rightly captured
the pulse of sneaker and collectable
aficionados. From limited-edition brand
capsule drops to iconic merchandise,
there is a dedicated space for the sale of
resale products, such as online
marketplace Novelship, and it is
garnering all the right attention,
especially in the Southeast Asian region.
Of the extensive library of highly sought-
after sneakers and collectible figurines,
some have been more popular than
others in Singapore for 2022.

While over 40 percent of the velocity growth in sports

footwear is expected to come from this region, it is also
the hub of the iconic high-end collectable collaboration
range. For example, BE@RBRICK is seeing resale
prices hit up to 1,800 percent above price, making them
a good investment option.

At such a rapidly growing rate, fuelled by hot-ticket

collaborations and sneaker crossovers, the value of the
resale sneaker market is forecast to reach USD 6 billion
by 2025, about three times more than that of 2019.

Novelship has emerged to be Asia’s fastest-growing

online marketplace for authentic, limited-edition
sneakers, apparel and collectables, as the website
features over 5,000 sneaker models at a time. From Air
Jordans and Nike to Supreme, Champion, Off-White,
Balenciaga and Alexander McQueen, there is an array of
products on Novelship to choose from. For those
looking for figurines, KAWS and BE@RBRICK also
have a massive display.

However, after a closer watch of the purchase pattern

and interests, an inclination towards basketball shoes has
been observed on Novelship, making them one of the
most popular sneakers to own in 2022 in Singapore.
Meanwhile, figurine collectors have always shown a
steady interest.
