This week we’re going to see new styles roll out from your favorite Sportswear brands such as Nike, Jordan Brand, adidas and more, but before we round those up, let’s first take you back into all of the sneaker-related action that arose last week.
HYPEBEAST kept its Sole Mates programming running as we captured a look into Ipam Evil‘s massive sneaker collection and his beloved Air Jordan 11 “Bred” sneakers. In terms of new business, Jordan Brand had some striking offerings to reveal such as on-foot shots of the upcoming TITAN x Air Jordan 2 Low, official images of the Air Jordan 7 “Citrus” retro and Luka Dončić’s latest Air Jordan 36 Low PE. Nike sparked a considerable amount of noise as well as it officially unveiled its Jacquemus x Nike Air Humara collaborations, previewed its Martine Rose x Nike Shox MR4, teased a new slide model alongside Matthew M Williams and revealed the NOCTA x Nike Air Hot Step “Black/University Gold.”
Now let’s dive into the latest with the Three Stripes. adidas definitely uncovered more striking releases such as the adidas YEEZY BOOST 350 V2 Reflective “Dark Beluga,” Pharrell’s Latest adidas NMD Hu “Animal Print,” a new Jeremy Scott x adidas Forum Hi Wings 4.0 with a multicolor gradient as well as a Superstar that’s inspired by the Korean Bakery Taegeukdang.
Elsewhere in the sneakers space, Dior dropped its collaborative capsule with Birkenstock, Paperboy Paris, BEAMS and New Balance teased a new Made in U.K. team-up and MSCHF’s announced its newest Super Normal silhouette.
