Dutch footwear retailer Sneakers has set-up shop at Lijnbaan 78 in Rotterdam. The retailer took over a former location of Front Runner, a sportswear chain that went bankrupt earlier this month. The Lijnbaan branch marks the third Rotterdam store for Sneakers.

The new Sneakers store has a total floor space of approximately 400 m2 divided over the ground floor, the first floor and the basement. The shop offers collections ranging from footwear (sneakers, sandals and boots) to accessories (bags, socks, caps, beanies and laces), for men, women and children. Available brands include Adidas, Birckenstock, Cruijff, K-Swiss, Happy Socks, Supra, Timberland and Vans.

Rotterdam’s Lijnbaan is the city’s main shopping street. In addition to a branch of Sneakers the street features a number of national and international stores, such as Dsquared2, Zara, H&M, Coolcat, River Island, Urban Outfitters, G-Star and Hollister. Recent openings include Gabor Shoes, Nyx Cosmetics and Sacha shoes.

Sneakers opened its first store in 1997. In 2012 the retailer launched a web shop. Sneakers currently has 46 physical stores across the Netherlands. In addition to Rotterdam, Sneakers can be found in Alkmaar, Almere, Amsterdam, Breda, Delft, Dordrecht, Goes, Eindhoven, Oss and Vlaardingen, to name a few.
