Best Sneakers This Week

best sneakers this week dunk low white black

Nike Dunk Low White Black

The Nike Dunk Low White Black is once again the most traded sneaker of the week on StockX. Restocks continue to drive new supply into the market, but it is evident that demand for these Dunks is thriving as resale premiums are still above 170% on average.

Nike Air Force 1 Low ’07 White

While Nike Dunk Low White Black is making a push to become the most sold sneaker of all-time on StockX, that title still belongs to the Nike Air Force 1 Low ’07 White. The AF1 Low White is a street staple that has been in demand for decades. It should be no surprise that it is one of the most popular sneakers of the week considering its history of market dominance.

Most Expensive Sneaker This Week

Air Jordan 3 History of Flight

Arguably one of the rarest Air Jordan 3s to ever exist, the Air Jordan 3 History of Flight recently surfaced and resold for a whopping $5,000. This colorway was never released to the public, it was a sample that was created as a display piece for the 2014 Nike World Basketball Festival in Chicago.

Best Sneakers Releasing This Week

adidas Yeezy Foam RNNR Sulfur

Yeezy expands their Foam RNNR line with the adidas Yeezy Foam RNNR Sulfur.

Constructed with a blend of EVA foam and recycled materials, adidas Yeezy Foam RNNR Sulfur arrives in an identical build to prior Foam RNNRs. Oval cut openings throughout the neutral-toned design create a sculptural look while providing ventilation. At the base, a cushioned footbed offers support.

The adidas Yeezy Foam RNNR Sulfur releases on Saturday, April 23rd for $90 on the adidas CONFIRMED app and in select stores.

Nike ACG Mountain Fly Low GORE-TEX

If you plan on hitting the trails this summer, the Nike ACG Mountain Fly Low GORE-TEX might be for you.

Arriving in Hazel Rush and Dark Smoke Grey colorways, the Nike ACG Mountain Fly Low GORE-TEX can handle any weather condition thrown its way. It features a waterproof, ripstop GORE-TEX upper with reinforced seams and reflective overlacing system. From there, a Nike React sole with deep treads provides all-day comfort and durability.

Both colorways of the Nike ACG Mountain Fly Low GORE-TEX release on Friday, April 22nd for $180 on the SNKRS app and in select retailers.

New Balance Kawhi 2 Goosebumps

New Balance teamed up with one of Kawhi Leonard’s favorite childhood book franchises for the New Balance Kawhi 2 Goosebumps.

In collaboration with R.L. Stine’s children’s horror series Goosebumps, the New Balance Kawhi 2 Goosebumps boasts an eerie black, green, white, and orange palette – similar to that of many of the series’ book covers. Continuing the book cover theme, Kawhi’s name is featured in a Goosebumps typeface on the tongues. Gearing this model for the hardwood, a Kinetic Stitch mesh upper enhances breathability, while a FuelCell midsole is prime for shock absorption and stability.

The New Balance Kawhi 2 Goosebumps releases on Wednesday, April 20th for $160 exclusively at Footlocker and Champs.

adidas Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN Geode

Yeezy continues their spring line-up with the adidas Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN Geode.

The adidas Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN Geode features a pale lilac nylon upper with black overlays and reflective “700” detailing. In a minimalist style, a tie-less, cord lacing system offers a secure and snug fit. A thick Boost sole at the base offers renowned cushioning and support in its signature fashion.

The adidas Yeezy Boost 700 MNVN Geode releases on Tuesday, April 19th for $220 on the adidas CONFIRMED app and in select stores.

adidas Futurecraft 4D Black Neon

Reintroduced earlier this year, the adidas Futurecraft 4D is back in a refreshing black and neon colorway.

The adidas Futurecraft 4D Black Neon arrives with a sleek, black Primeknit upper with infrared Three Stripes detailing and a vibrant neon yellow lining. Contrasting its muted, sculptural adidas 4D midsole, a neon blue treaded outsole completes the design.

The adidas Futurecraft 4D Black Neon releases on Monday, April 18th for $220 on the adidas website and in select adidas retailers.
