// eBay is partnering with London chicken shop Morley’s to open a eBay x Morley’s pop up Sneaker store
// Visitors will be able to get their hand on the sneakers at their original prices through an online raffle
In celebration of eBay’s launch of OG Drops, which will allow sneaker loves to get their hands on currently sought-after shoes at a much lower cost of when the model first launched, the marketplace giant is partnering with London chicken shop Morley’s to open a first-of-its-kind eBay x Morley’s Sneaker Store.
The pop up will open on Brick Lane on June 18 where members of the public will be able to get their hand on the sneakers at their original prices through an online raffle, which includes a 1-pound charity donation, as well as secure tickets to the exclusive store.
Visitors will have access to some of the most coveted sneaker silhouettes from the past four decades, including the Air Jordan 1 Low x Travis Scott which currently retail at £1,800 but will be available through eBay for just £51 pounds, 97% off.

eBay UK sneaker category manager Wahaaj Shabbir said in a statement: “The great thing about drops is being able to actually get your hands on a pair of sneakers, wear them and show them off,”
“But now that’s become rare! OG Drops resets the sneakers’ value back to their original retail price and means everyone can get in on the action. Whether it’s through the on-site or at our Store at Morley’s, we are encouraging everyone who cops an OG drop at an OG price to give them some love on feet.”
Last month, it was revealed that for the first time ever, islanders on ITV’s 2022 Love Island will be wearing preloved clothes this season, with eBay becoming the show’s first ever Pre-Loved Fashion Partner.
Islanders currently on the popular dating show have access to a shared pre-loved wardrobe situated in the new villa for the first time.
