FIND YOUR SOLE, FIND OUR TRUCK

THE TRUCK THAT’S ABOUT TO CHANGE YOUR SUMMER IS COMING TO AN EVENT NEAR YOU

Posted by DICK’S Sporting Goods | June 2026

Lace up. You have somewhere to go.

DICK’S Sporting Goods and Foot Locker are putting a sneaker truck on the road this summer coming to an event near you! It’s a full mobile sneaker experience with exclusive drops, a customization sole studio, and a wall dedicated to the athletes who made self-expression the whole point.

It launches Fourth of July weekend 2026 and it is hitting Lollapalooza, FIFA World Cup, and every major event in between. This truck is a homage to every athlete, every creative, every kid who ever got told they couldn’t do something or they were too much. This partnership is for the people who want to shoot for the stars.

You have big shoes to fill.

In 1985, Michael Jordan laced up a pair of black and red Air Jordan 1s and the NBA fined him $5,000 every single game. He did not stop. Nike paid the fines and the most iconic sneaker in history was born out of one man’s refusal to look like everybody else.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK – NOVEMBER 30: Signed Michael Jordan Nike 1985 ‘Player Sample’ Air Jordan 1s is on display during a press preview at Sotheby’s on November 30, 2022 in New York City. They are expected to be auctioned for $100,000 – 200,000. (Photo by Alexi Rosenfeld/Getty Images)

Allen Iverson walked into press conferences in a fitted cap, baggy jeans, and chains starting a wave of doing this differently. The NBA responded by literally creating a dress code. He did not care. He had already changed the culture.

Lisa Leslie threw down the first dunk in WNBA history. Alex Morgan and Megan Rapinoe carried women’s soccer on their backs and made the world pay attention. These athletes did not ask for permission to be themselves. They just were.

The Legacy Wall inside and on the back of the truck tell their stories.

You will walk in and you are surrounded by the history of people who decided that self-expression was not optional because it is the “sole” thing that made them legendary.

Now here is where you come in.

The Sole Studio is the centerpiece of the truck and honestly it might be the coolest activations DICK’S has ever done. You sit down, you get a blank sole from a shoe we sell or one you’ve purchased with us, and you make it yours. 

Your patterns. 

Your hometown. 

Your story.

Your Sole. 

Whatever that means to you, you put it on the sole and you walk out of that truck with a pair of sneakers that literally no one else on the planet will ever have. They represent who you are and will take you to the places you dream of going.This is a a one-of-one shoe that you designed from the ground up. We are here to help you start your legacy, and it starts at the sole.

Oh, and about those limited drops…

Every single tour stop gets its own exclusive release. Lollapalooza? Own drop. FIFA World Cup? Own drop. Fourth of July launch weekend? The very first drop of the entire tour and you can only get it if you are there. No SNKRS app. No bots. No refreshing a page at 6 a.m. Just show up, be there, and cop something nobody else can get. The way it was always supposed to be.

Find the truck.

Fourth of July Weekend 2026 will be the launch and it will go to events such as Lolla Lollapalooza in Chicago and multiple cities for the FIFA World Cup. But keep and eye out because there will  be more strops dropping all summer. 

Follow @dickssportinggoods and @footlocker. Track #FindYourSole. Tell your friends. Tell your group chat. Tell that one person who always says they never hit on drops.

The truck is coming. The sole is blank. Go find yours.
