With long journeys reaching an end and upcoming releases confirmed, the last week in Sneaker News should leave you with feelings of anxiety and anticipation. The NBA season officially ended with the Lakers winning it all, so now all focus can be put on the FIBA World Championships and the blockbuster free-agency market. After numerous previews and detailed looks, the Air Jordan VI Infrared Pack will finally release, and we expect a crazy release event across the nation. Sneaker News also brought you some great looks at upcoming Nike Sportswear and Retro releases from Fall 2010 to Spring 2011, a welcome breather from all the Jordan hoopla. A first look at next year’s Nike Air Max installment was revealed as well, showing a complete overhaul of the upper.
There was plenty for the here and now as well; Sneaker News brought you a detailed look at the Air Jordan XIII Premio as well as some unreleased samples of shoes that were both released and stuck on the cutting room floor. Supra also made some noise, as we got a look at their recent releases and upcoming colorways, and an HTM-designed Footscape Woven (how often do you see these) also grabbed attention. We also got a look at another impressive Air Jordan collection with an admirable display to boot. There’s much more to see – celebs, NBA ballers, recently released kicks – so get caught up on all things sneakers by checking in with our Sneaker News Weekly Rewind.
