Lot’s of great news going on around the world: the Olympics continue, NASA lands on Mars, and of course, all the great sneaker-related headlines seen on Sneaker News! Starting off, three upcoming Air Jordan Retros in the ‘Elephant’ V, ‘Crawfish’ IX, and ‘Squadron Blue’ XIII gave the Jordan category a ton of firepower. A detailed look at the LeBron X was finally revealed, as was the ‘Polarized Pink’ Air Foamposite One. A slew of celebrities broke out some great sneaker heat this week, like Fat Joe’s appearance at Sneaker Con Miami wearing the ‘Derrty’ Air Max2 CB ’94. A first on-feet look at the much anticipated Ewing 33 Hi ‘Knicks’ was revealed as well.
In the NSW category, Nike is bringing back OG Air Max 1 and 90 in ‘VNTG’ form. A jaw-dropping Dunk Low with Sopranos lasering surfaced this week, as did a few Dunk customs (among a number of great sneaker customs of the week). A first look at the Reebok DMX Run Retro popped up, New Balance and Vans went collab-news crazy, and Nike Basketball went seven days straight with its Nike Basketball: 1992-2012 retrospective. Air Jordan PEs have always been a popular subject on Sneaker News, so we took a look back at all the great Air Jordan VIIIs of the last decade. Finally, the trail-blazing Nike Blazer got its shine for this week’s Classics Revisited. All the best of Sneaker News from the last week is just below, so read through and be on top of your Sneaker News game!
