Matt Varga As we all put finishing touches on our autumn rotations, a heavy stream of GRs and collab pairs alike should make for some tough conversations about who’ll grab your final few slots.
Two SNKRS releases easily stand as the most notable, with Nigo’s Air Force 3 collection (including apparel) and the high-concept Air Max 95 “Unearthed” each crashing in this week. A particularly packed start to October brings new colorways for a few defining 2024 models, from the Air Jordan 1 Low OG to the Nike Air Max Sunder to the Nike Sabrina 2. Further ahead on the slate, some major heat arrives on the basketball shoes end, highlighted by a return of the KD 4 “Aunt Pearl” and a similarly shaded version of the Anthony Edwards 1. We close out with a similarly stacked Saturday, comprised of the long-anticipated Nigo Air Force 3, the Air Jordan 1 “Satin Shadow” and a new look for the adidas Anthony Edwards 1.
While the above summary gives you a birds-eye view of what’s worth paying attention to this week, by no means is it a full rundown. For that, scroll just ahead- you’ll find photos of each release with the blurb attached containing direct links that’ll lead you to full respective breakdowns.
