Sneaker News Weekly Rewind – 2/27 – 3/5

Weekly Rewind Summary 3 5

The last week was much like the movie previews that show before the feature film, and the past seven days gave us insight on some huge blockbusters that will head our way. We received news that the Parra x Patta x Air Max 1 was confirmed for release next week, while upcoming “indies” in the form of two denim dunks by Nike 6.0 had Oscar buzz going. The oldies-but-goodies nudged their way in as the Royal Foamposite One was confirmed for a re-launch and first images of the Powder Blue Air Jordan IX Retro were unveiled. And finally, fresh design was also a key theme, as the Nike Trainer 1 was Unleashed on Nike iD, while a pair of the Melo M6 designed by a high-schooler made its way to the Nuggets’ Pepsi Center arena. There’s a lot to be seen from the past week, so grab your popcorn and soda pop and press play.
