AIRMAX 1000.2 'Glacier Blue'
Release Date: July 30
Editor's Notes: Forget the top-stitching or fraying material, Nike is propelling the Sneaker into 2030 with a fully 3D-Printed AIRMAX 1000.2. Capping off a run of Space-Age Sneaker releases, this new silhouette feels as much a declaration of technical skill and futuristic design as it does a reinvention of a staple.
Zoom Streak 3 'Sail and Cream II"
Release Date: August 1
Editor's Notes: Not all sneakers need to aim for technological forward-leaps. Nike's sleek and minimalist Zoom Range, for instance, is about comfort-first, more than anything else. Designed with long distances in mind, the easy fit and its light weight is ideal for a casual summer's day as well as mileage on the track.
Zoom Skylon 11
Release Date: Available Now
Editor's Notes: Once again, the Zoom series offers an an optimal city sneaker. In subtle Y2K design language and with breathable mesh uppers, the Zoom Skylon 11 is testament to how a slightly nostalgic 2000s' runner is perfect for every eventuality.
Book 2 'Tiger Camo'
Release Date: August 1
Editor's Notes: These days, understated is overdone. The new Book 2 Tiger Camo turns things back around. Somewhere between military camo and an animal pelt, this shoe's all-over print is distinct, and so should be its wearer.
Air Zoom Flight The Glove 'Black and White'
Release Date: July 31
Editor's Notes: Sleek, minimalist, and silky. The Air Zoom Flight "The Glove" is a satin assassin. Crafted for the on the court back in 1998, the tough look of the zipper demands little introduction to those in-the-know. Attitude not included.
Air Jordan 13 Retro 'Navy and Flint Grey'
Release Date: August 1
Editor's Notes: Sometimes you can't beat a classic. Nike know hows to reach for the silhouettes that feel native to 2028 as much as to 1998. A good indication is how the "Navy and Flint Grey" would fit the denim of every decade.
Nike S.T. Charge 'Rugged' PE 'Rattan and Hyper Royal'
Release Date: August 1
Editor's Notes: A new ACG Sneaker? A Nike Basketball Sneaker? How about both?! Two parts of the Nike world that seem to get closer season by season, these Mowabb inspired S.T. Charge sneakers balance the technology of the two worlds. Who else but Nike to bring hiking to a pick-up game near you?
