Company details

StockX was founded in 2015 by Dan Gilbert, Josh Luber, and Greg Schwartz. In discussing the prospect of an IPO during a CNBC interview from October 2019, newly appointed CEO Scott Cutler, while not giving a timeline on such an event, did note that going public is “certainly our objective as a company.” These comments should not be interpreted to mean that the company is formally pursuing or foregoing an IPO.

StockX is an online marketplace for clothes with a heightened focus on sneakers. StockX has raised approximately $160 million in Venture Capital funding from investors including DST Global, GGV Capital, Battery Ventures, GV, RockBridge, SV Angel, CourtsideVC, and various celebrities. Per company press releases, StockX most recently raised $110 million in June 2019 at a post-money valuation of over $1 billion.

StockX IPO news and media highlights

Hear how StockX brought the sneaker scene to Detroit – TechCrunch

At TechCrunch’s Detroit City Spotlight this week, I sat down with Rae Witte, the journalist behind the StockX EC-1. TechCrunch’s EC-1 push allows individual authors to go deep on a particular company. And as StockX has been headquartered in Detroit since its inception, we took the chance to dig into our reporting in front of our friends from Motor City. Witte has been covering the now-unicorn, and the larger sneaker beat, for a half decade. That experience helped enrich her reporting arc, giving her more insight into the company’s business model, founding story and recent growth. StockX is a behemoth today, having recently been valued at $3.8 billion in a round that was announced this month.

Everything entrepreneurs need to know about StockX – TechCrunch

Societies are defined by their markets. What people value, what they actually buy, how they transact and who they purchase from determine not just the goods in their possession, but the very society and culture they construct. It might seem that after thousands of years of evolution and refinement, concepts like quality, authenticity, value and price would be static. Nothing could be further from the truth. StockX is a unique company at the nexus of two radical transitions that isn’t just redefining markets, but our culture as well. E-commerce upended markets, diminishing the physical experience by intermediating and aggregating buyers and sellers through digital platforms.

How StockX became the stock market of hype – TechCrunch

While the old adage goes, “Find a job you love doing, you’ll never work a day in your life,” it’s safe to assume this was well before the age of the YouTuber, “plandids” and the stock market of things. StockX may be a multibillion dollar juggernaut with massive influence radiating throughout sneaker culture today, but it started with taking the leap to transforming a personal passion into a business plan. For founder Josh Luber, keeping his love for sneakers separate from his career was very intentional at first. As he continued to invest into his hobby, he saw something from his corporate jobs that was altogether missing from sneakers — data. As he established and dove deeper into the numbers, an entirely different vision arose. A basketball game, a check and a business later, StockX was born.

Where StockX fits in the business of sneakers – TechCrunch

Before StockX, sneaker buyers had eBay, campouts at sneaker stores and internet forums as avenues to connect with other enthusiasts and find the most desired shoes. Five years later, the data-based secondary marketplace’s impact is pervasive across tech, secondary marketplaces, the business of sneakers, entrepreneurship, hype culture or even just retail stores as a whole. The company’s timing was keen, riding the wave of Instagram’s rise while bringing a marketplace mechanism to the surging popularity of this category. Yet, StockX is not alone in targeting this increasingly lucrative sector. E-commerce startups and tech companies have sprouted up to target this connected cultural consumer, and StockX has had to run quickly to maintain its product and marketplace lead.
