The Sneaker Suite was originally launched in 2005 to celebrate the birthday of owner Ian Callender, as well as to highlight the Washington Post Feature “Sole of the Sneakerhead”. The event was a conceptual, creative footwear showcase blending music, fashion, food, art, and unique, exclusive sneakers. For years, the Sneaker Suite platform remained strategic with “one off”, turn-key, branded events with support from multiple corporate partners through high level productions such as Sneaker Pimps and the Kicks for Kids Charity Shoe Drive.

In 2008, the Sneaker Suite birthed a more category focused, subsidiary entity called Suite Nation; a full service, event design agency serving clients outside the sneaker realm in genres such as automotive, wine and spirits, urban apparel, brick and mortar, real estate development & more. We offer seamless, dynamic solutions and provide opportunities for increased awareness and brand loyalty; providing a consistent, dedicated, influential audience for brand advertisers accordingly. We also provide concierge services for celebrity personnel seeking to expand their experiences with unique non traditional programming opportunities to keep in touch with their local/region communities.

16 years later, we have continued our efforts with the same formula when first created. Our principle three point position remains true: Authenticity. Geniality. Community.
