The massive momentum and the insane level of growth a few businesses have attained today can be attributed to a couple of factors. One includes, the visionary ideas with which a few business owners created a positive dent in their respective sectors worldwide. To do that in the sneaker and streetwear niche has proved to be even more challenging and taxing, but there have been a handful of them that have astonished the world with their success. Topping the list is Roman Vargas, aka Drakula, with his business Retro Kicks (https://www.shopretrokicks.com/).
His business was born out of his passion for sneakers, and this led him to become an ace sneaker and streetwear influencer for the past two decades. Drakula hails from the Dominican Republic and has now made New Jersey his home. From a very young age, his love for sneakers knew no bounds, and he decided to dive deep into the industry with the genuine intent to create a business that could give “premium quality products” a new definition altogether. This is how Retro Kicks came into being, now considered one of the top sneaker and lifestyle stores in New York, with thousands of sales on a monthly basis.
Artists like Rihanna, Kanye West, Jay- Z,
J Balvin, Anuel AA, and Ozuna buy from him as well as other well known figures from different fields. The store is also known for hosting “La Loteria de la Leche,” which is a daily raffle show that is doing amazing well.
