Email alerts — not a store — when a pair you’d actually cop lands in your exact UK size at Superkicks, Crepdog Crew, Limited Edt or Mainstreet.
Who’s behind this
Built by Kabir, a UK 10.5 sneakerhead in Bengaluru who missed one too many Samba OG restocks on Superkicks at 11:47 AM. KicksIndia is a one-person project — the catalog polling, the email writing, the copy you’re reading. Reply to any email or write to [email protected]; it lands in the same inbox.
One email when alerts open. No drip, no referral pitch, no “check out this other thing we made.”
You’re in. We’ll only email the day alerts open.
You’re already on the list — no need to submit again.
That email didn’t look right. Try again?
Sizes UK 5–6 and UK 10–13 get priority at launch because that’s what the four stores consistently run out of first. Tell us yours and we’ll save you a spot.
Tell us your size and we’ll prioritise UK 5–6 and UK 10–13 matches at launch — the sizes most-skipped by the four stores.

Drops land at random on four different sites. You’re refreshing Instagram and four product pages like it’s 2014. And if you’re a UK 10+ or UK 6, the pair is gone before the post hits your feed.
KicksIndia sits on those catalogs so you don’t have to. Standard is a once-a-day digest of everything that matched your watchlist. Pro only emails when your exact size is live. That’s it. No app, no Discord, no roadmap.
Four stores. Every Indian sneaker retailer with a public product feed that we can read cleanly. If we can add a fifth without scraping a headless browser, we will, and Pro subscribers get it the day it turns on.
Nike, Jordan, adidas, New Balance, ASICS, On, Hoka, Yeezy, Onitsuka, Saucony, Puma, Salomon and the rest of the usual suspects.
Dunk Low, AJ1, AF1, Samba, Gazelle, 530 / 550 / 9060, Cloudmonster, Mexico 66. The ones people actually search for.
UK sizing with half sizes. Pro gates the email on your size being live. Standard shows your size as a hint in the digest.
Pro only. Catch collabs by name when they hit: bodega, murakami, travis, jjjjound. Quiet most weeks, loud when it matters.
Skip anything above a number you pick. Useful for filtering out six-figure Yeezys you didn’t want to see anyway.
1 to 5. Silence the catalog churn, keep the GRs worth GRing and the collabs that are actually collabs.
For the sneaker-curious who want to try before they commit.
For the once-a-day reader who wants the roundup filtered, not a firehose.
For sneakerheads who wear UK 10+ or UK 6 and are done missing their size.
Billed in rupees, cancel any time from the online portal. No annual lock-in, no intro-price-then-jump nonsense.
When a pair lands in your size at one of the four stores, this is the email you get — first-spotted time, price in rupees, a rough hype score, and one tap to the retailer’s own checkout.

Brand, silhouette, size, store, price ceiling, hype floor. Everything nullable, nothing required.
Shopify /products.json on all four stores, classifier runs over every new listing, watchlist matcher fans out per user.
Standard: one digest at 09:30 IST covering the last 24 hours. Pro: a send within the poll window of your size going live.
Link straight to the product page. Retailer’s price, retailer’s checkout. We don’t hold stock, take a cut, or resell.
A real Standard digest, exactly as it goes out to subscribers: open the sample ›
Not ready to subscribe? The free This Week in Indian Sneaker Drops page lists everything from the last seven days across the four stores. Updated every Sunday morning.
No. We watch Indian retail only, where the price on the page is the price you pay at checkout. If you’re flipping on the secondary market we’re the wrong tool.
Standard is a once-a-day digest at 09:30 IST. Pro runs on a 30-minute poll, so a typical alert lands within that window of your size showing up in the catalog. For megadrops where the pair sells out in seconds, no alerting service can outrun the bots. We don’t promise that.
Happens. Pro’s size filter at least keeps you out of emails where your size was never on the page to begin with.
Email reaches every phone and desktop without an install. Unsubscribe is one click, replies land in a human inbox, and archiving is free. We’d rather do one delivery path cleanly than three half-done. If enough Pro subscribers ask for Telegram or WhatsApp once we’re live, we’ll consider adding it as a second channel.
KicksIndia focuses on the four Indian stores that publish a machine-readable catalog we can poll every 15 minutes — Superkicks, Crepdog Crew, Limited Edt, and Mainstreet. That’s what lets us beat their own newsletters on speed. VegNonVeg and Culture Circle don’t expose the same feed, so their own Instagram and newsletters remain the best path for those two. Want us to add a fifth store that does publish a feed? Reply to any email, or write to [email protected].
We hit the same public /products.json endpoint your browser does, at a polite ~30-minute cadence per store with a clearly identifying user agent. No headless browsers, no fake sessions, no aggressive crawling. If a retailer asks us to stop, we stop — we’d rather lose coverage of one store than annoy a retailer that mostly benefits from being watched.
A 1–5 scale auto-assigned by our classifier per listing.
Pro lets you set a minimum score so your inbox stays relevant.
SNKRS blocks automated access, and the brand-owned sites don’t publish a machine-readable catalog. We only cover stores we can read cleanly without pretending to be a browser.
No. Zero partnerships, zero affiliate links, zero referrals. We read the same public endpoint your browser does, at a polite rate. If a store asks us to stop, we stop.
Instagram tells you about a drop after the store’s social team posts it, which is usually after it’s gone, never with size info. Pro emails you only when your size is live.
Yes. One click from your subscription portal. You keep access until the end of the paid month.
