Laces Out! Trainer Festival Returns To Camp and Furnace

Liverpool has an undisputed long and storied history with trainer culture. Therefore it is obvious that the city would play host to one of the most exciting trainer festivals in Europe, Laces Out!, which presents its autumn-winter edition on Saturday 19th November at Camp and Furnace in the Baltic Triangle.

The one-day festival enjoyed unprecedented success for its spring edition in March, where highlights included an eclectic display and sale of new, rare and vintage trainers, an exclusive In-Conversation between International Trainer and Hip-Hop expert, Bobbito Garcia and BBC 1Xtra’s DJ Semtex, performances by Hip-Hop Stalwarts Rodney P and Skitz and the premiere screening of the uncut Adidas Spezial documentary. Enthusiasts travelled from across the nation to attend in record numbers.
