As the internet continues to recover from the pandemonium caused by rumors that the Air Jordan 1 “Chicago” will return in late 2022, some of the top sneaker brands provided fans with more news to get excited about over the last week.
NIKE, Inc. dominated headlines as it confirmed at least three releases from its Air Max Day 2022 lineup. Unsurprisingly, region-exclusive editions of the Nike Air Max 1, which also celebrates its 35th anniversary, will spearhead the fictional March 26th holiday’s commemorative roster. Tinker Hatfield’s Air Trainer 1 from 1987 is also set to return in its original “Chlorophyll” style as part of its own 35th birthday celebration. Away from the milestone anniversaries, mainstays like the Nike Dunk (in High and Low trim) emerged in refreshing upcoming colorways. Nike Basketball offerings the likes of the Nike Zoom Flight 95 surprised everyone when it surfaced in its first Supreme collaboration.
In the New Balance realm, die-hard and casual consumers alike were treated to a range of new New Balance 2002R “Refined Future” styles. Widely-known as the “Protection Pack,” the design approach reimagines the 12-year-old model through the lens of “wearable relics.” Premium pig suede and performance-informed mesh are given “Steel Blue,” “Vintage Orange” and other fresh makeovers as part of 2022’s roster. Lastly, Reebok announced that it had decided to change the Kamikaze’s name to “Hurrikaze.” Adoption among sneaker enthusiasts who’ve known the Shawn Kemp-associated model under the former name for almost 30 years may be gradual. Only time will tell.
For a look at all that and more, check out our top headlines from March 5th to March 11th here below.
