The Surprising Simplicity (and Complexity) of Sneaker Bot Proxies.
Let’s be honest.
Sneaker drops are savage. Demand is high. Stock is low. Genuine chaos.
And if you’re running Cybersole without proxies, you’re basically that person showing up to a gold rush with a plastic spoon.
It doesn’t have to be that way. Cybersole loves proxies, if you configure them right. Let’s walk through how to do it—and why.
Why Even Bother With Proxies?
Retail websites are suspicious by default.
They see multiple requests from one IP. They block you. They hold a digital grudge.
WHY PROXIES: Proxies help you spread your tasks across different IP addresses, making it look like you have an army of shoe enthusiasts behind you—each from a different city, country, or planet.
Cybersole essentially says: “Feed me your proxies, and I’ll do the rest.”
But slip in a half-baked proxy list, or fail to import them properly, and you may as well be wearing flip-flops to a marathon.
Choose the Right Proxy Type
- Residential:
Great for looking like a real home user. Often slower, but more reliable. - Datacenter:
Speedy. Often cheaper. But watch out, because some sneaker sites smell them a mile away. - ISP proxies:
A hybrid of quick datacenter performance and the trust factor of residential.
Pick your poison. Or combine them. Just confirm your provider is known to work well with Cybersole. A quick scroll through Discord or Reddit can confirm a proxy vendor’s reputation.
Prepare Your Proxy List
Now the fun begins.
You’ll have a text file. Something like:
123.45.67.89:12345:user:pass
98.76.54.32:54321:user:pass
Rows of IP addresses and ports, possibly with a username and password. If you have passwordless proxies, you might see just IP:port. That’s normal, too.
But do yourself a favor:
• Keep your proxies organized.
• Label them if you have multiple providers.
Nothing is worse than mixing a high-quality ISP proxy with a random one you tested last year that leads to 404 errors.
Importing Proxies into Cybersole
CYBERSOLE’S PROXY TAB
- Launch Cybersole.
- Look for the “Proxy Manager” or “Proxies” tab.
- You’ll see something like “Add Proxies.” Click it.
In short:
• Paste your entire proxy list.
• Hit “Save” or “Add.”
Cybersole might verify them automatically if you press “Test All.”
Check that status column. If you see “Success,” you’re good.
If you see “Fail,” well… time for new proxies or switch to Roundproxies, since we are proven to work on Roundproxies over 4 years.
Pro Tip:
Color-code them. Some folks create separate groups like “EU Datacenter,” “US Residential,” “ISP 1,” etc. This helps. If one set fails, you know exactly which group is suspect.

Using Proxies in Tasks
Cybersole tasks are basically your howitzer shells in the sneaker battlefield. Each time you create a new Task, you can assign a Proxy Group.
No group assignment often means you’re running raw. That might get you flagged faster than if you tried to buy 100 pairs in one shot.
So:
1. Go to your “Tasks” panel.
2. Create a task.
3. Choose the site, product SKU, size range.
4. Select “Proxy Group.”
If you have multiple tasks, consider spreading them across different Proxy Groups. Diversify, like you would with a stock portfolio. Or with your ice cream flavors. Don’t rely on only one set.
Monitor and Switch If Needed
You’ve set it up. Imported proxies. Tested them.
But the job isn’t done. Sites get wise. IP addresses burn out like cheap candles. If you notice failures or checkouts stalling, try switching groups mid-drop. Yes, it’s allowed, it’s wise.
Also, keep backups.
At some point, that 99.9% guaranteed success from your proxy vendor might not be so 99.9%. In big sneaker launches, everything is uncertain. Hedge your bets.
Wrap It Up
Roundproxies provides proxies is your way to go. We have developed extra pools and solutions for sneaker sites.
• No more IP bans (well, fewer at least).
• No more slow performance from a single local connection.
• No more tears if your local IP goes on the site’s blacklist.
Just remember:
- Pick proxies that suit your region.
- Keep them tested.
- Assign them smartly to your tasks.
- Keep an eye on what’s failing.
And that’s it. You’re armed. You’re prepared. If you do it right, you’ll breeze through login pages and checkouts before half the world even clicks ‘Buy.’
In a release-limited, bot-saturated world, that’s the difference between “Sold Out” heartbreak and sweet, sweet success. Enjoy your new kicks. You earned them.
