Matt Varga After months and months of discussing the highly-anticipated sneaker releases coming to us in 2025, we’re extremely excited to meet the new year and all it has to offer, but there’s still a few loose ends left on the slate.
Though its a repeat of the lean slate we covered last week, several brands are packing in some notable pairs into the very tail end of this year and the very start of next, beginning with the KITH Salomon collection. One of the last steps in the brand’s KITMAS collection, three distinct colorways of two “brand-new” models will arrive on December 30th. It’s also a major week for Nike, Inc. performance wear; the “Ekiden” collection lands stateside, the Book 1 and LeBron 22 get new, already well-recieved colorways, and the Tatum 3 and GT Cut 3 kick off the “Year of the Snake” collection. Finally, Reebok makes a splash by introducing an OG-minded edition of Allen Iverson’s Answer III.
The above rundown gives you a taste of what’s upcoming but not a complete breakdown. For that, you’ll have to peruse the list and photos ahead, with attached hyperlinks leading back to detailed release coverage and “Where To Buy” links. For any late-breaking news, check our Sneaker Release Dates and Jordan Release Dates hubs. Most importantly, happy new year!
