Best Sneakers Releasing This Week
Updated on •Published
After a packed NBA All-Star Weekend that included some of this year’s top releases, things slowed down slightly this week.
In the fallout of the NBA All-Star Game, Paolo Banchero and Jayson Tatum, both Jordan Brand athletes, are launching a sneaker, Paolo with his own colorway of the Jordan Heir and Tatum with his Tatum 3 in the Blueprint colorway. The next day, we will see two new colorways of Kevin Durant’s Nike KD 4, the MVP and Alternate MVP, both inspired by KD’s famous speech honoring his mother when he won the MVP award in 2014.
Continuing with Tuesday drops, Monsters Inc. and Crocs come together to bring Sulley and Mike Wazowski to life, Sulley on a fur-covered Cozzzy Sandal and Mike on the Classic Clog. On Wednesday, New Balance is beginning to drop GR colorways of its trail-ready MT10 silhouette with the Black Castlerock rendition. We’ll also see the Nike SNKRS release of the Nike SB Dunk Low Aluminium.
The 20th has two new Made in Germany JJJJound x adidas releases, the Superstar 82 Off White and Superstar 90 Black. The German heritage continues with the adidas Samba getting a makeover courtesy of FC Bayern Munich, who are celebrating their 125th anniversary as a soccer club in 2025. Finishing Thursday is the next Scoot Henderson Puma release, the Puma Scoot Zeros II Sterling.
Joe Freshgoods and New Balance celebrate five years of partnership with the 992 Made in USA Aged Well, a call-back to Joe’s first-ever NB project on the silhouette back in 2020. Also on Friday is the release of the first Air Jordan 14 Golf, Cecilie Bahnsen’s Asics Gel-Terrain MT Pack, and Tobe Nwigwe’s Reebok Chukwu Preseason OTU Pack. Finally, the week is finished with three drops on Saturday: The adidas Harden Vol. 9 Pearlized, Air Jordan 3 Lucky Shorts, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x Puma MB.03 Low Krang.
