Best Sneakers This Week
Air Jordan 11 Cool Grey
After a colossal release, the Air Jordan 11 Cool Grey is now the most traded sneaker in the past week. If trade numbers keep their momentum throughout the rest of the year, the Air Jordan 11 could be on path to becoming one of the biggest Jordan releases in StockX history.
Nike Air Force 1 Low ’07 White
No stranger to being on this list, the Nike Air Force 1 Low ’07 White was once again one of the most traded sneakers on StockX this week. The all-white AF1 Low isn’t the most traded sneaker of all time without reason, it is a street classic and an essential for any closet.

adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 Beluga Reflective
One of Yeezy’s most celebrated designs gets a reflective makeover with the adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 Beluga Reflective.
Having debuted in 2016, the Beluga colorway is one of the most notable Yeezy Boost 350 V2s of all time, especially because it’s a riff on the first-ever Yeezy 350 (no V2). The latest iteration, the adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 Beluga Reflective, builds off of the original colorway by adding reflective qualities and speckled orange accents to its Primeknit upper. Signature details like a Boost sole and orange side stripe remain intact.
The adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 Beluga Reflective releases on Saturday, December 18th for $220 on the adidas CONFIRMED app and in select retailers.

Air Jordan 1 Hand Crafted
If you missed out on the Air Jordan 1 Mocha and are looking for a more affordable alternative, the Air Jordan 1 Hand Crafted could be the way to go.
The upper of the Air Jordan 1 Hand Crafted satisfies all of your Mocha needs with its brown Durabuck toe and collar wraps but also throws an assortment of fall colors into the fold for a unique look. From there, Wings logo collar patches and two-tone laces add a DIY feel. While no one will ever confuse this pair for the AJ1 Mochas, they have a number of similar qualities.
The Air Jordan 1 Hand Crafted releases on Saturday, December 18th for $170 on the SNKRS app and in select stores.

Salehe Bembury x Crocs Pollex Clog
Coming fresh off of multiple collaborations with New Balance, designer Salehe Bembury teamed up with Crocs to create highly anticipated clogs inspired by organic form and function.
Arriving in both Cucumber and Menemsha colorways, the Crocs Pollex Clog Salehe Bembury is composed of dramatic, fingerprint-like concave ridges, allowing for multi-directional traction. While the design doesn’t have nearly as many holes as a traditional Croc, the remaining holes serve a purpose: they are located on high-heat areas of the foot for increased breathability. A removable canvas strap at the ankle provides wearers with options for styling.
The Crocs Pollex Clog Salehe Bembury releases on Thursday, December 14th for $85 on the Crocs website.

New Balance 991 Stray Rats
Stray Rats and New Balance have joined forces once again, this time for a New Balance 991 influenced by vintage robots and MechWarrior, a sci-fi video game franchise that started in the late 1980s.
Releasing in Black and Brown colorways, the New Balance 991 Stray Rats radiates with Y2K energy. Each colorway balances darker tones with fluorescent detailing, similar to the light beams from BattleTechs, battle robots that are key components in the MechWarrior games. Adding an element of customization, Stray Rats embroidery is prominent on each toe wrap.
The New Balance 991 Stray Rats releases on Friday, December 17th for $250 on the New Balance website and in select retailers.

Puma MB.01 Red Blast
While the Puma MB.01 may not be LaMelo Ball’s first signature shoe (we can’t forget Big Baller Brand), it is his first signature shoe with Puma.
Presented in a vibrant Red Blast color scheme, the Puma MB.01 takes cues from LaMelo’s “1 of 1” chest tattoo. Embroidery on the mesh upper represents the bird wings found in the tattoo, while the illustration on the tongue depicts a toned-down rendition of the exact design.
The Puma MB.01 Red Blast releases on Thursday, December 16th for $120 on the Puma website and in select stores.

Nike LeBron 19 Tune Squad
First appearing on LeBron in Space Jam: A New Legacy, the Nike LeBron 19 Tune Squad opens a new chapter in LeBron’s signature line with Nike.

The Nike LeBron 19 Tune Squad releases on Saturday, December 18th for $200 on the SNKRS app and in select Nike retailers.
