Sneaker inspiration comes from virtually everywhere. From the design to the colorways, hardly anything just comes out of the blue. So it makes sense that designers would look to the world's most well-known cities as a source for inspiration. And whether it's natural landmarks or sports teams or historic minutia, virtually everything is fair game when it comes to colors and details. The largest cities, like New York and L.A., get no shortage of homages, but over the years it's gone way deeper than that. Check out The 30 Best City Inspired Sneakers of All Time and let us know your personal favorites below.
