This was the queue outside Westfield Sydney today as people waiting for a chance to

- wait for it -

own a pair of sneakers.

but

It's less a sneaker, and more a culture

[myoclon1cjerk]

Or un-cultured.

two pairs for the price of one?

[fustermcluster]

Did they run out of shoes or did all the queuers get lucky?

Just a few metres away Sandra (not her real name) has been watching this show for days. She's homeless and begging – needs $100 to get a deposit on some housing after she and her son left her violent husband.

"Not one of them has given me a cent, and they are taking up so much room it's stopping other people coming by," she says. "I'm trying not to think about that."

A number available but you just need to be able to know the difference between the fake and the genuine

ones,(plus how to avoid the scam listings),

Seems Sydney is full of sneaker wearing bogans or is the line full of Victorian expats?  Here in the developed world (Victoria) we wear shoes....with laces.  (I am an ex Sydney sider and would rather still be a Sydney sider if it were not for affordable housing and affordable private schools).

Sydeny is also full of fakes....people that is.
