IP type matters
Datacenter IPs are filtered at the edge. Stale residential pools are filtered seconds in. Fresh mobile and Tier-1 residential IPs sit beneath the threshold because they are indistinguishable from real shopper traffic.

Use case
What "sneaker proxies" actually means in 2026
A sneaker proxy is just a residential or mobile IP routed in front of your bot. The brand around it does not matter — what matters is the network behind it. Drop sites profile traffic on three axes: IP type, ASN reputation and session behaviour. ProxyOmega gives you direct access to clean pools on all three.
ASN reputation matters
Some residential pools recycle IPs through known abusive ASNs and get range-banned. Our pools are Tier-1 ISP-grade on Platinum and consumer-grade on Budget Unlimited, so the ASN reads as a normal household ISP.
Session behaviour matters
If your task's IP rotates mid-3DS, the order dies. Sticky sessions hold the same IP from cart to confirmation — up to 60 hours on Platinum and 24 hours per port on Budget Unlimited.
Geography matters
Regional Shopify drops and Adidas Confirmed regional releases shipping-gate by state. Platinum supports state, city and ASN targeting so a Boston drop resolves to a Boston shopper.
Volume matters
Monitor groups, image warmers and pre-drop pages burn GBs before the drop opens. Unlimited bandwidth caps the bill so monitoring a hundred SKUs does not cost more than the drop itself.
Concurrency matters
Drop second is the worst possible moment for the proxy network to throttle you. Platinum supports 10,000 concurrent connections at 100 req/s by default. No per-IP rate-limits.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What are sneaker proxies?
Sneaker proxies are residential or mobile IPs routed between your bot and the drop site so each task looks like a separate real shopper. Without them, a multi-task bot is just one cloud IP making dozens of requests — anti-bot detects and blocks that instantly.
Are residential or mobile proxies better for sneakers?
It depends on the site. SNKRS, YEEZY Supply and other mobile-aware drops favour real 4G/5G carrier IPs. Shopify-hosted drops, Footsites, END. and most Adidas releases are well served by Tier-1 residential. Many cook groups run both pools in parallel.
How many sneaker proxies do I need per task?
Modern bot setups use one proxy per task. A 200-task SNKRS setup wants 200 mobile IPs. A 500-task Shopify cook wants 500 residential IPs. Pools rotate from a 90M+ pool so you never get the same IP twice.
Do these sneaker proxies work with every major bot?
Yes. Standard HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS5 with user:pass or IP-whitelist auth. Compatible with AIO Bot, Cybersole, Wrath, Balko, Valor, Tohru, Hayha, Stellar, Kodai, Mek, Prism and any bot taking host:port:user:pass.
Can I get a sneaker proxy free trial?
New accounts get $5 trial credit at sign-up — enough to validate proxies against the target site before the drop. No minimum spend after.
What if a drop blocks one of my proxies?
Rotation is per-request by default so a bad IP is replaced on the next call automatically. For sticky sessions, your bot can request a fresh session token and pull a different IP without releasing the cart.
