Elvis Presley Sneakers 👟

Elvis Presley Sneakers

After the Saperstein deal, fans could literally dress themselves from head to toe — hats to shoes — in Elvis Presley merchandise. Elvis Presley Enterprises licensed the Randolph Manufacturing Company to make Elvis canvas sneakers in 1956.

Two different colors were available, a green and black pair and a black and white pair. The former are the most valuable, though sneakers in both colors are rare and highly sought collectibles. The tan-colored box that the sneakers came in featured a photo of Elvis on the front and the back. The photo on the front was a shot of Elvis performing, which was the famous pose used on his first album cover.

The photo on the back was a dreamy portrait, with “Love Me Tender” printed at the top and Elvis’ signature at the bottom. The box is now considered extremely rare. A pair of sneakers in the box is currently worth up to $4,300.
