Sneaker News Weekly Rewind: 6/2 – 6/8

Weekly Rewind Summary 6 8

Yeezy taught us that getting his kicks was much easier said that done, but Sneaker News did its best to keep you on top of all the release info to maximize your chances of copping the second Kanye x Nike shoe. In Air Jordan news, we got a first clear look at the Air Jordan IX ‘Olive’ and the Air Jordan VI ‘Golden Moments’, while release information for the ‘Gym Green’ Foamposite pleased the Foam-crazed circles. Two new Kobe take-down models called the VII.5 and Venomenon III will drop soon, while a look at a number of upcoming Lunar Hyperdunk+ colorways topped the Nike Basketball headlines. NBA Feet focused on the two Conference Finals match-ups, as the OKC Thunder advanced to the Finals while the Heat/Celtics were pushed to a decisive Game 7. Reebok continues to make headlines with the Marvel x Reebok Pack, with some of our favorite heroes like Wolverine and Captain America taking form on some popular Reebok models.

Vans and Supreme will collaborate for a new set of Authentics trimmed with Corduroy, while a detailed look at the ‘Steel Blue’ by Ronnie Fieg brought some more heat to the smoldering New Balance corner. The release info for the second set of Packer Shoes x Saucony Grid 9000s dropped this week, while a special colorway of the upcoming adiZero Rose 3.0 paying homage to another legendary Chicago sports team was previewed. The HOT 97 Summer Jam is one of the definitive dates that marks the beginning of the Summer season, and it was that massive concert where we saw some awesome sneaker heat on some big-time hip-hop artists. A nice collection of Air Jordan custom jobs like the ‘Floral’ Air Jordan V and the light-up Air Jordan IIIs garnered a ton of attention, as did an autographed PE of the Air Jordan VIII made for Kobe Bryant. Finally, Sneaker News focused on five legendary Air Force 1’s for this week’s Classics Revisited where we relived some of the earlier icons that helped pave the road for today’s sneaker culture. All of Sneaker News Weekly Rewind lies just ahead, so read through to be on top of all your sneaker-related headlines!
