Sneakers to release this weekend - from April 28th to May 1st, 2017
From the Nike Air Shake NDestrukt to the adidas EQT Milled Leather pack
April 28th, 2017
Kanye strikes back, this time with a "triple white" inspired 350 boots. Everyone will remember when Mr. West used to rock Ultraboosts, especially the triple white iteration that literally went sold out after the artist's performance at Powerhouse fest in south California. Will this new 350 style make history again? Lately the periodical releases and the lack of a style twist are driving Yeezy Boost 350 hype to death. Exception made for the ultra-limited "Zebra" the latest release seem to have lost grip on the audience. On the other side the Air More Uptempo are now clearly shoes of the year. The huge success of the retro-release last year and the beyond-all-expectation hype around the Supreme collaboration that dropped yesterday brought brand new file and renovated energy to the historic kicks. Same for Air Max 97, which 2017 releases surprised the audience, turning the most iconic sneakers of late '90 in one of the most celebrated silhouettes of early '00s. Are the old glories definitely overwhelming the last arrived? Maybe, the sneaker-game is a jungle.
#1 Nike Air Shake NDestrukt
One of the oddest silhouette from the '90 is about to come back. It's definitely a good time for revivals and the return of NDestrukt make no exception. The announce Dennis Rodman favorite sneaker return has been warmly welcomed by fans and sneaker enthusiasts. The shoe will be available in the 3 "OG" colorways: White/Red/Black, Black/White, White/Blue. The Visible Air technology on the sneaker has been revisited and turned smaller. Everything else seems to be quite close to the original, bold use of thumbled leather included. A special embroidery has been put on the strap in order to pay homage to Rodman grinding attitude.
#2 Nike KD 9 Elite "Multicolor"
While Kevin Durant is stille resting after a previous injury, new iterations of KD 9 are being released. This new multicolor "CW" is dedicated to all Flyknit lovers. The upgraded slip-on upper, make the shoe more comfortable and fitted, while the Volt Zoom midsole ensure an elevated level of performance.
#3 Nike WMNS Air Sock Racer Flyknit
Two exclusive colorways for women of the signature 80's silhouette are about to be released. Grey/Black and Vibrant pink. Also 2017 brings some serious innovations to the classic Air Sock, like the new "free sole" unit and the Flyknit construction.
#4 adidas YEEZY Boost 350 "Cream"
Finally a style twist for the most sought after sneaker of last years. This "triple white" inspired colorway brings some fresh air to the KW signature kick, which latest iterations were becoming way too similar one to another. The construction will be similar to other 350 V2, with the usual primeknit upper and gumsole. As already happened before with some 350 V2 iterations, the heel tab has been restored for these ones.
#5 Nike Air More Uptempo "Scottie Pippen"
A new Air More Uptempo themed after Chicago Bulls. This time the sneaker pays homage to the legendary NBA player Scottie Pippen with a special Nike logo on the heel, with classic '90 gel swoosh and Scottie Pippen "PIP" logo. The colorway is really bold and sees the contrast between white upper and black "AIR" lettering white red hints.
#6 adidas EQT Milled Leather pack
This new series of Equipment Boosts will feature an exclusive laser-cut milled leather with luxury finishing. This new pack will feature just a sharp Black/White colorway and will include: adidas EQT Support RF, adidas EQT Support Ultra, adidas EQT Support 93/17 and adidas EQT Support ADV.
