eBay’s Wear ‘Em Out Store, open on Fairfax Avenue in Los Angeles throughout Memorial Day weekend, offers exclusive pricing on collectible kicks to those who wear them out of the store.

eBay (San Jose, Calif.) is opening a store made for sneakerheads during Memorial Day weekend, according to a company press release. The store is called “Wear ‘Em Out Store,” as it encourages customers to embrace their new shoes by wearing them right out of the store.

The store is located on Fairfax Avenue in Los Angeles and will offer deals like 70 percent off retail prices, and an even bigger discount for those who wear the new shoes while exiting the store.

Famous rapper Offset has been working with them “behind the scenes,” according to eBay, by helping curate the store’s offerings.

Garry Thaniel, GM of Sneakers at eBay, says, “Most people can identify with that feeling of getting a new pair of shoes that you love so much, you just have to wear them out of the store.”
