Nike Air Jordan 6 Retro "Olympic"
Release Date: Aug 3
Editor's Notes: It’s been 12 years since this sneaker was first "retroed" and 24 years since its initial release (we’re not counting the golfing travesty). Now, the “Olympic” 6s are finally back and arrive right on time for this year's Paris games.
The updated sneaker is crafted from premium leather with a white midsole similar to the OG pair.
Joe Freshgoods x New Balance 990v6
Release Date: Aug 1
Editor's Notes: In need of some monochrome kicks? Don't fret, Joe Freshgoods has got you covered. The sneakerhead and designer releases his 2-piece drop with New Balance made from mesh and suede overlays that sit comfortably on the brand's FuelCell sole.
HOKA Stinson Evo OG
Release Date: Aug 1
Editor's Notes: Another model that hasn't been seen in almost 12 years is HOKA's Stinson Evo OG.
The sneaker that paved the way for the brand’s chunky, all-terrain running shoes returns in a new colorway made with a mesh upper, toggle laces, and its signature Zero Gravity Technology.
There Skateboards x Nike SB Dunk Low Pro
Release Date: Aug 2
Editor's Notes: It's all about the details on There Skateboards and Nike SB's new sneaker: contrasting embroidery, lace charms, and graphics gems featuring artwork by the brand’s founder, Jeff Cheung.
MSCHF Flipped Flop
Release Date: Out now
Editor's Notes: From its Big Red Boot to its brutalist "Timbs", MSCHF habitually finds new ways to one-up its uncanny designs, and its Flipped Flop sandal might be the most innovative yet.
The new pair utilizes high-quality cushioning foam to ensure you don’t break your ankle while showing off your new heels.
Salehe Bembury x Crocs Pollex Clog "Mulberry"
Release Date: Aug 1
Editor's Notes: Crocs and Salehe Bembury are a match made in slip-on footwear heaven.
The designer offers a new pair of the collaborative Pollex Clog in a mulberry hue that’s essential for fans of neutral, but slightly popping colorways.
