Located GOAT sales, July 10, 2026 to October 8, 2026: 4,047 here, 387,680 across the US. Buyer locations came back in July 2026 for GOAT’s best-selling shoes only, so this covers popular pairs; the city and the rest of the US are measured on the same shoes. Each share is tested against the rest-of-US share (exact binomial test, Benjamini-Hochberg across the 42 brands and models tested here, q < 0.05); a “buys more” row also needs three or more different shoes with none above half the count, so one bulk buyer cannot make a trend. Same-shoe prices: each shoe with 5+ sales here against its US median, the median of those ratios with a bootstrap interval, sign test corrected across all cities.
