Hailing from creator Jay Longino and Complex Networks, the Netflix original series is set to premiere on September 25.

The series centers around Devin (Maldonado), a former sneakerhead turned stay-at-home dad who gets back in the game only to quickly find himself five G’s in the hole after falling for one of old friend Bobby’s (Bachelor) get-rich-quick schemes. Desperate to get his money back before his wife finds out he’s fallen off the wagon, Devin enlists the help of a ragtag group of fellow shoe lovers on his global hunt for the elusive “Zeroes,” the holy grail of hard-to-find kicks.

The series also stars Jearnest Corchado, Matthew Josten, Yaani King Mondschein, Justin Lee, and Aja Evans.

Sneakerheads is a Complex Networks production.

Maldonado’s previous television credits include The Last O.G., Black-ish, You’re The Worst and The Young and the Restless.
