Up until this past week, things have been relatively quiet in the sneakers sphere. Releases, too, have left much to be desired, though things are finally beginning to pick up once again. In addition to a drove of Air Jordan Retros, we’ll soon have on our hands a massive restock of adidas Yeezys and much, much more.
But before Ye and adidas officially get back in the saddle, we’ll have to wait out the final days of May. And for the last full week of the month, New Balance will be kickings things off alongside POETS, who’ve crafted their own take on the Tiago Lemos 1010. Skaters should be equally happy with Nike SB, as they’re about to bring the Stefan Janoski back out in “Gorge Green.” Things then take a more Y2K-inspired turn on Wednesday thanks to adidas’ “YNUK” collection.
Looking ahead, both Jordan Brand and Nike have prepared a stacked line-up of releases. The Jumpman is delivering the Air Jordan 6 “Toro Bravo,” Air Jordan 1 “Vibrations of Naija,” and Air Jordan 14 “Laney,” while the Swoosh have cooked up the Ja 1 “Hunger” as well as yet another restock of the Panda Dunks.
For details on and links to all of the above and more, look ahead at the best upcoming sneaker releases from May 22nd to May 28th.
