With each passing week, the biggest players in the sneaker space continue to deliver a healthy balance of retro and futuristic product.
NIKE, Inc. has consistently served nostalgia in sneaker form since the mid-1990s. And while a few early Air Jordan models continue to help the North American brand rake in billions of dollars, the Swoosh conglomerate never backed down from the sequel. The Nike Air Max Motif and Converse All Star BB Shift prove it, even with obvious nods to both brands’ legacies. Additionally, the 37-year-old Nike Dunk silhouette has appeared in all-new arrangements, which is impressive considering the model has been in constant rotation on both online and Nike SB rosters for decades.
On the Three Stripes side, adidas is shaking up the sneaker and fashion world by unveiling its partnership with Gucci. Although much of the collection, which was unveiled on the catwalk in Milan, favors luxury over sportswear, it includes at least a few pairs of shoes rooted in adidas Originals history. On a modern level, the Ultraboost 23 and Yeezy Foam Runner showcased the German sportswear institution’s commitment to the future, which isn’t always immediately appreciated. Nonetheless, both proposals have been refreshing for the footwear landscape and have surely already laid the groundwork for even bolder offerings in the works.
For a look at all that and more, including Drake’s NOCTA x Nike Hot Step Air Terra, check out our top releases from February 19 through February 25 below.
