Nike Air Force 1 Low White 07
You can never go wrong with a clean pair of Forces. The Nike Air Force 1 Low White 07 has remained in style for over 30 years and will continue to be a staple in sneaker culture. This is the sneaker equivalent of a white tee or Leviās 501. Itās a swiss army knife in style. You can add a pair of white Forces to any outfit and it will tie it together. We know itās starting to become trendy to wear beat forces with the creases and yellowed soles. Trust us when we say this is not the path you should travel down. Air Force 1s deserve your respect. Keep a clean a pair on and let everyone know that you care.
Retail: $225 | Resale: $165
Jordan 6 Retro PSG Paris Saint Germain
It baffles us over at StockX World HQ that the Jordan 6 Retro PSG Paris Saint-Germain has remained under the radar. With Nike star Neymar tearing up the Champions League, it was only a matter of time before we would see PSG and Jordan join forces on a sneaker. You would assume that with the Travis Scott 6 sweeping the market that some of the love would spread to fellow 6s. Apparently, the vultures have flown over this hidden gem and the true AJ 6 connoisseurs get to eat. This colorway is reminiscent of the popular Bordeaux 7, but keeps it low key, making it an easy pairing with your favorite pair of pants. From cargo pants to wool trousers, these sneakers can give a subtle boost to your outfit in any setting.Ā

New Balance 990v5 Grey
The surge of New Balance popularity this year has been a surprise to many, but for us real NB heads, it was business as usual. 2019 has become an important year in New Balance history because it marks the debut of the fifth iteration of the New Balance 990. The New Balance 990v5 Grey differs from its predecessors by taking a slightly new shape and adding translucent overlays. With a slew of collaborations with brands like Engineered Garments, Aime Leon Dore, and Junya Watanabe, the 990v5 has become the go-to silhouette for NBās creative partnerships. Despite all of the new colorways and materials on the market, nothing beats a classic grey pair of 990s. These sneakers stand the test of time and easily look better with wear.
Retail: $60 | Resale: $55
adidas Stan Smith
No, this isnāt the pair with R’s on the side that comes in all sorts of crazy colors (Sorry, Quavo). Those left us in 2016 along with high-water cuffed chinos and bomber jackets. These are forever. These are the original adidas Stan Smith White Green (OG). A monument of style as we know it, these sneakers are a must-have in your closet. Weāve never seen a fit go wrong as long as Stan was involved. Well, not yet. Donāt let us down.
Retail: $300 | Resale: $280
Yeezy Boost 700 V2 Geode
This may be the most slept-on 700 V2 to date. The adidas Yeezy Boost 700 V2 Geode arrived earlier this year and retailers sold out as expected. What we did not expect was the market rewarding end-users by dropping their value under retail. We think the fear of mud-colored sneakers got the better of the market and was a factor in the price decline, but we shouldnāt complain. This is a great colorway with endless styling opportunities.
