"In the last few months, we've seen more and more Vaporfly sneaker models enter the 'hype' space," a StockX representative told Business Insider in an email.Kena Betancur/VIEWpress / Getty The representative confirmed that 17 different Vaporfly models have sold on the platform in the last two months, six of which rank among the company's top 2,000 best sellers.

The StockX representative said that the website was only selling six Vaporfly sneakers on its site during this time last year, only three of which were among the top 2,000 best-selling sneakers. "Given the added cachet and publicity that comes with the competition ban, we expect increased interest in this product category in the coming months," the representative wrote.
