The Kickz Stand was founded on March 6, 2013, by Jay Mijares and Dale Hasegawa, right here in Australia. What started as a small community of sneakerheads and streetwear lovers has since grown into one of the country’s biggest and most passionate lifestyle collectives. Over the years, we’ve built something special — a space where people from all walks of life come together to celebrate not just fashion or kicks, but culture as a whole.
For us, it’s always been more than just sneakers. While our roots lie in sneakers and streetwear, The Kickz Stand has evolved into a lifestyle movement that embraces a wide range of passions including music, art, cars, collectible toys, gaming, food, sport, and everything in between. We know that most people don’t just stick to one interest and that’s exactly what makes our community so unique and exciting.
We’re proud to say we’ve worked with some of the biggest names in the game, both locally and internationally. From ASICS, KIKS, and G-SHOCK to Indomie, eBay, Monster Energy, Under Armour, Crep Protect, Stance, JD Sports, EA Sports, 2K Sports, Saucony, JBL, Limited Edt, Carnival, AFEW, Jarritos, Cosmonauts Spacewear, and Secret Fresh — the list keeps growing. These collaborations are a reflection of the trust, creativity, and respect that The Kickz Stand brings to the table.
One of our biggest highlights each year is our national event series It’s More Than Just Sneakers. Held across different cities in Australia, this event is built for the community by the community. It’s not just a marketplace — it’s an experience. A place where you can discover new brands, connect with fellow collectors and creatives, showcase your style, and just vibe with people who get it.
We’ve always been about creating a platform where everyone feels welcome, no matter your background, interests, or experience. Whether you’re deep into the sneaker scene, just getting into streetwear, obsessed with JDM cars, a gamer, artist, foodie, or all of the above, there’s a spot for you here.
If you’ve got any questions, ideas, or just want to reach out, don’t hesitate to hit us up. We’re always open to collaborating, supporting others, and hearing from our community.
Thank you for rocking with us all these years. Your support means everything and continues to fuel what we do every day.
