Don’t expect to see anyone over 25 in this temple to the sneaker. No pretense to utili-tarianism here, nor any mention of training, running or basketball. The store is aimed at the skater–hip hop crowd, and it’s all about the look. The various Vans, Pumas, Nikes and Adidas mounted in locked display cases or on glass shelves set off from white brick walls are mini-masterpieces of brightly coloured pop art. Gems include the sleek Nike Dunk High ($180), with its fancy non-stick rubber sole, and other hard-to-find retro sneakers. Filling out the street cred are rap-alicious jeans and hoodies from Billionaire Boy’s Club ($375), for which Livestock is the only official retailer in Canada.
