First up for our annual Snobette Sneaker Awards 2015 is OG Susan Boyle, owner of Rime, a New York sneaker boutique with locations in Brooklyn and Manhattan (see details below). Her boutiques are unique because they are as popular with men as they are women and within the industry she is seen as having a unique level of expertise on not just product, but also creating a sneaker boutique environment that women feel welcome in. Her picks pack a lot of punch because of her years in the business but also because they’re backed up by their popularity at the register.
