8ON8 x ASICS GEL KAYANO 14- June 20th
At this point, the Kayano 14 has cemented itself deeply as a popular sneaker in the current runner trend. Past collaborations have helped it reach this point- and Shanghai’s 8on8 is looking to continue that trend forward. The collaboration features two tonal colorways of the Kayano whilst pops of green and pink are introduced subtly. The futuristic look of the sneakers is a classic juxtaposition to the now classic retro runner. The collection will release via ASICS on June 20th.

The Jordan Summer 2024 collection had to include some things for the ladies. This time, it’s a classic feeling pink Jordan 11 Low. The model itself took over the sneaker space in the early 2000s. Colorways from that era have trickled down from time to time. This time, though, we get a brand new colorway in WMNS extended sizing. A low top classic sneaker, in a perfect summer pallet? You really cannot go wrong. The Legend Pink Jordan 11s release on on NIKE on June 22nd.

Air Jordan 1 High 85 “Metallic Burgundy”- June 22nd
Almost 40 years since originally releasing, the Metallic Air Jordan 1 High pack is making an appearance in the Metallic Burgundy colorway. Often looked over by the mass public, the Metallic pack has become a favorite among sneaker-heads deep in the trenches. A red iteration of the Metallic pack is not unfamiliar, albeit it being a different shade, but a retro from the pack coming in the 85 cut is. It is a welcomed addition to the retro class, and one can only hope for more pairs from this pack to make a return. The pair releases on SNKRS on June 22nd.
