“The Nike Blazer Mid 77 Move to Zero is a refreshing change to the Blazer lineup. With unique materials, a simple color scheme, and icy blue soles, these blazers look and feel like something special. A rarity amongst other general releases.” –Andy Dutton


Nike Air Max 90 First Use “Light Bone”
BUY HERE

The Air Max 90 is one of the most beloved silhouettes in all of sneakers, and there are very few colorways that stand up to this one. Not only is the combination of sail, cream, and light bone gorgeous, but the shoe also uses a luxurious suede along with the usual mesh we see in AM90s. The First Use series also has subtle details that set them apart like the gold swoosh aglet as well as the script Nike logos seen throughout the shoe.


adidas Samba Vegan “White”
BUY HERE

The adidas Samba is having a bit of a moment right now. The likes of Fear of God’s Jerry Lorenzo, A$AP Nast, and A$AP Rocky have been seen wearing them recently. There’s a new vegan version of the silhouette, and unlike the previous iteration, it doesn’t have any additional branding signifying the vegan materials, making it closer to the OG version.


New Balance 992 “Burgundy”
BUY HERE

With the massive success that New Balance, and more specifically, the 992 had garnered last year, it’s a surprise to see these still being available. The Grey 992 is still almost an instant sellout every time a retailer restocks, but we’d be remiss not to mention this Burgundy colorway that’s one of the better colorways this model has seen in the last year. The best part? The New Balance logo in yellow chenille makes this shoe pop unlike any other 992 in the lineup.


ASICS Gel Kayano 14 Women’s “Off-White”
BUY HERE

The Gel Kayano 14 is one of the ‘if you know, you know‘ silhouettes of this year. Following up on some great sellout colorways, this Off-White version is everything you would want in an understated summer shoe. Even with its toned-down minimal color choice, the lines, panels, and materials of the shoe make it such a striking pair.

quotes

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
