Best Sneaker Releases: June 2019 Week 4

Over the past seven days, all eyes were focused on Paris Fashion Week SS20 where Virgil Abloh and his Off-White™ imprint debuted Futura-assisted Nike SB Dunk Lows, while 1017 ALYX 9SM, Pigalle and sacai also debuted Nike collaborations on the runway. SANKUANZ also spotlighted its Timberland 6-Inch Boot during PFW, while Craig Green did the same with the adidas Kamanda.

Elsewhere, the sports world also had a lot to celebrate. Supreme rider and 2018’s SOTY, Tyshawn Jones, unveiled his first-ever Pro model with adidas Skateboarding, while New Balance released a special edition 997 and 990v5 pack to commemorate the Toronto Raptors’ first ever NBA Championship. Nike also gave a shout out to the second annual NY vs NY basketball tournament with its “Streetball” Pack.

Fans were also given a few first looks at an unreleased De La Soul x Nike SB Dunk Low sample, the adidas YEEZY BOOST 451, and our exclusive look at OAMC and adidas Originals’ SS20 sneaker collab.
