KICKS

Football…ahem…soccer madness will be upon the world thanks to the World Cup, so Jordan Brand paid homage to the game and the host city with the new Brazil Pack. The limited edition kicks and apparel feature festive colorways of the Air Jordan VI and the CP3.VII AE.

Jordan Brand has major plans for 2015, including releasing retros made with better quality materials. In case you thought the Nike subsidiary was blowing smoke, here’s an advanced look of the Air Jordan IV “Oreo.”

Nike pushed the boundaries of innovation and design with the Nike LeBron 11. However, the latest colorway, the “South Beach,” is a blast from the past that sneakerheads should flock to.

Brooklyn-based streetwear brand Lemar & Dauley were known for creating Hip-Hop-inspired pieces in fresh, summery color palettes prior to their hiatus around the turn of the decade. However, they’ve since made a resurgence and with their return comes a new collaborative shoe with FILA.

The summer just got way more interesting. While most have their sights on whatever Air Jordans are releasing, OG sneakerheads should be ecstatic to see the Nike Air Max 93 return to shelves.

Vans Vault struck gold with a Star Wars collection earlier this year, but it appears that the brand isn’t done reimagining George Lucas’ legendary film franchise into proper footwear. Yesterday (May 30), Vans Classics unveiled a spring/summer 2014 collection.

For fear of sounding bitter, let’s avoid saying that the sneaker game has taken a turn for the worse. But it’s hard to say any different when folks are selling the full Nike Air Yeezy collection on eBay for a whopping $100K.

While an assortment of Air Jordan 6s seems to be Jordan Brand’s priority at the moment, there’s still a few new Air Jordan 1s in the pipeline. For starters, there’s a smooth “Black/White” colorway on the horizon.

It’s all systems go for Pharrell, who always seems to be in the news for one reason or another these days. Following last weekend’s gallery opening at Galerie Perrotin, the producer unveils another Paris-based artistic venture in a special take on the adidas Originals Stan Smith.

Numerous classic takes of the Air Jordan 6 silhouette have already or are set to release later this year, but Jordan Brand also has some original pairs in the fold. That said, get a detailed of the “History Of Jordan” colorway.

Sneakerheads who hoped to save their pences should think again, as Nike is set to release an Air Jordan “Carmine” collection. Comprised of a classic Air Jordan VI Retro and a fresh take on the Air Jordan I, the shoes are set to hit retailers in the coming weeks.
