The Best Nike Sneaker Releases This Week
Not every great sneaker release has to reinvent footwear. In fact, Nike seems to be at its strongest when it doesn't. While every other brand is busy chasing the next viral silhouette or shocking collaboration, the Swoosh continues to mine its own archive with remarkable confidence. From streetwear staples, to Indoor Football Icons and Basketball classics. They're all part of the same conversation now!
In this iteration of our our weekly lineup of Nike releases, find proof that Nike offers great design week by week. From a high-top, all-weather icon to a boot-sneaker hybrid and a moody low-profile track-star, this week shows off the best that Nike has to offer for early spooky season.
Please note: Some sneakers may sell out at speed.

Nike Air Force 1 Mid '07 GORE-TEX Vibram
Release Date: Available now
Editor's Notes: Nike takes the Air Force 1 into all-terrain territory with this GORE-TEX release. The AF1 Mid, the underrated counterpart to the iconic Low, gets the gorpcore treatment with a waterproof leather upper, its signature ankle strap, and a rugged Vibram sole. A fully kitted-out winter warrior with a familiar edge.
Nike Air Max Goadome Low SP
Release Date: Available now
Editor's Notes: Part boot, part sneaker, the Goadome has become an experimental darling of the Nike world. Leaning into its boot DNA, this Taupe, Black, and University Red colorway recalls classic hikers and workwear staples. With a brown leather upper, rugged hardware, and a lugged outsole, it’s your favorite boots rolled into one, backed by Nike Air cushioning.
Nike Moon Shoe OG
Release Date: Available now
Editor's Notes: Nike’s archival runner gets a moody makeover. In anthracite and black, with a touch of Safety Orange, the Moon Shoe OG joins the low-profile movement with a lightweight nylon upper, a prominent leather Swoosh, and a waffle sole. A shift away from sunny vintage palettes, this darker release brings a dose of 1970s running nostalgia to 2026.
Nike SB PS8
Release Date: Available now
Editor's Notes: Even skate shoes aren’t safe from the rise of technical design. Like its running counterparts, the Nike SB PS8 chases performance through the finer details. A layered Flyknit upper gets leather reinforcement in high-wear areas, while a responsive Flyplate and lightweight HART rubber outsole bring the innovation underfoot. Less about shaving minutes off a marathon, more about chasing that elusive tre flip.
Air Force 1 "University of Oregon"
Release Date: Available now
Editor's Notes: Call it school spirit with an inside voice. This University of Oregon AF1 celebrates Nike’s longstanding ties to the Ducks without leaning on their signature green and yellow. Instead, an all-black suede upper carries tonal Oregon “O” and Duck mascot details, keeping the allegiance subtle. Durable and timeless, it’s a lifelong appreciation rendered in triple black.
Air Max Metro
Release Date: Available now
Editor's Notes: Nike’s answer to the city sneaker. With a nearly full-length Air unit cushioned by Cushlon 3.0 foam, the Air Max Metro brings running-inspired comfort to the daily pavement shuffle. A layered mesh, suede, and synthetic leather upper mixes Light Photo Blue, Illusion Green, and black, while the speckled midsole adds a concrete-jungle finish. An assertive design built to keep pace with city life.
Air Force 1 '01 'College Grey and Pink Glaze'
Release Date: Available now
Editor's Notes:From pigeon Dunks to rat-inspired Air Force 1s, Nike has a soft spot for New York’s unsung urban wildlife. In shaggy grey suede with pink accents and an outsole to match, this AF1 salutes the city’s real subway surfers. A MetroCard-inspired hangtag completes the transit tribute, while the revived ’01 shape brings a slimmer toe box to the Uptown. Free rides not included.
