Best Sneakers This Week
adidas Yeezy Foam RNR Onyx
While the Foam RNR may have a new name (Formerly known as the “Foam RNNR”), the demand is still the same – stratospheric. In its first week on the market, the adidas Yeezy Foam RNR Onyx has become the most traded product of the week on StockX, and the fourth most traded Foam RNR in the past 12 months.
Nike Dunk Low White Black
The Nike Dunk Low Black White continues its run to become the most traded Nike sneaker in StockX history. Last week, the 2021 model was one of the most popular sneakers of the week, behind only the adidas Yeezy Foam RNR Onyx – a shoe that is still fresh off of its initial release.
Most Expensive Sneaker This Week
Air Jordan 1 Chicago (1985)
Last week, the original 1985 Air Jordan 1 Chicago traded for a whopping $30,000, becoming not only the most expensive trade of the week, but the most expensive Air Jordan in StockX history. Being that autographed and game-worn 1985 Air Jordan 1 Chicagos have auctioned off at prices upwards of a million dollars, it is justifiable for a deadstock pair to fetch an amount of this caliber.

Nike SB Dunk Low Be True
In honor of Pride Month, Nike SB celebrates the LGBTQIA+ community with the Nike SB Dunk Low Be True.
Because everyone is unique in their own way, each pair of the Nike SB Dunk Low Be True will have a one-of-a-kind look over time. Wear and tear on the painted white leather upper will reveal multicolor panels beneath the surface, similar to the Air Jordan 1 High SB Lance Mountain. From there, mismatched gradient blue and pink heel tabs and laces offer a spontaneous look, while gradient rainbow stitching throughout the design nods to the Pride flag.
