What Opium is known for
Paris sneaker and streetwear boutique since 2001—exclusive ultra-limited drops, high-end urban labels, and community events in the Chatelet Les Halles.
Opium Paris, opened in 2001, is a distinguished sneaker and streetwear boutique founded by childhood friends Thomas and Julien who shared a passion for sneaker culture. Located in Chatelet Les Halles at 19 rue Pierre Lescot, Opium offers exclusive and ultra-limited sneaker models from brands including Air Jordan, Yeezy, Nike, and Asics. The shop is structured as two points of sale: Opium Original focuses on sportswear while Opium Heritage BBAL is dedicated to basketball. More than a retail store, Opium functions as a community hub bringing together street culture enthusiasts through regular events such as product launches and art exhibitions celebrating sneaker culture and its impact on contemporary society.
