There are only a couple of weeks left for holiday shopping and while that might feel like all the time in the world, the deadlines are quickly approaching and it’s time to buckle down and get serious. Everyone has their own definition of “Last Minute” Holiday Shopping, but considering how the rest of 2020 went, that distinction cannot come too early. We’ve brought together the most popular pieces of the season so far, each one is sure to bring joy to whoever you’re shopping for, whether it’s for a loved one or yourself. These are our shopper’s favorites, so it’s a great bet it’ll be a winner.
adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 Core Black / Red
A recent restock of the adidas Yeezy Boost 350 V2 in Core Black / Red, or what everyone calls “Bred,” has shot the perennial favorite back to the top of popularity for buyers and sellers on StockX. That’s because ever since Michael Jordan made this combination of black and red famous in 1985 it has proven to be a winning combination Mix that up with the flexible Primeknit upper and bouncy BOOST sole on a Yeezy 350 V2 and that makes for happy hearts and happier feet.
adidas Yeezy 500 Utility Black
Leaning deeply into 90s skater vibes and utility boots, the adidas Yeezy 500 mixes just enough nostalgia into its design chemistry that it feels almost timeless to sneaker fans today. This take in Utility Black takes a complex aesthetic riddled with a multitude of different textures and transform those variations into a seamless harmony of tonal execution. Black sneakers are perfect for the holidays, keeping you comfortable no matter the weather while still convincing your more conservative family members that you’re just a little dressed up.
Air Jordan 4 Fire Red
The Air Jordan Fire Red 4s were the headline drop from Jordan Brand for Black Friday and they were a welcome gift to all of us. The Fire Red 4 is a classic sneaker that has staked its claim in the annals of sneaker history for a multitude of reasons, not least of which is Michael Jordan’s own fame for wearing the sneakers in some iconic iconography. While there are far fewer OG Jordan 4 colorways to choose from, the Fire Reds have always maintained their supremacy thanks to the classic combination of red, white, and black.
Air Jordan 1 Black / Metallic Gold
While we’ve seen other Air Jordans drop this season that have given into the unique history of Michael Jordan and his legacy, when it comes to Black / Metallic Gold Jordan 1s, the heritage is far more cultural than it is personal. The few times that the Jordan 1 has released in black and gold colorways, each has popped off immediately. Pairs are scooped up quickly, demanding skyrocketing resale values, making the gold patent leather nearly worth its weight in… gold. It’s rare to see a colorway offer so much demand without being tied to a collaborator or a piece of history, but these precious pairs have marked that achievement.
Air Jordan 9 University Blue
You’d be forgiven if the name of these retro Air Jordan 9s confuses you because the University Blue that they purport to represent is a little hard to find. While most of the shoe is done up in white leather and black Durabuck, the blue appears as the Jumpman logo on the sole, a bit on the tongue, and a couple of splashes on the heel. During a season where most of the hits are black, white, and red, this pair sneaks right under the radar to blend right in.
Air Jordan 1 Dark Mocha
The whiplash is real. If the Air Jordan 1 Dark Mocha forces you into a double-take because you thought you were looking at Travis Scott Jordan 1s, you’re not alone. The sneaker was practically made as a more accessible version of the sneakers that go for very high prices, and the comparison has created unexpected demand, making them more expensive than some of their compatriots. They are general release, and they are not a collaboration, but Jordan Brand’s grasp on what moves buyers is becoming more sophisticated and these Dark Mochas are proof.
Supreme Cross Box Logo Hoodie
When Supreme prints Box Logos they might as well print money, and the latest iteration of Box Logo apparel is no different. Just this season Supreme released eight colorways of their Cross Box Logo Hoodie that overlays one logo on top of the other to make a cross – it’s not super complicated. While the pieces are super popular, it also seems that there’s plenty to go around, making this one of the most accessible Box Logo hoodies ever. Considering there are eight different colors of the hooded sweatshirts, there’s a version for any budget and every aesthetic.
Fear Of God ESSENTIALS 3D Silicon Applique Pullover Hoodie
The jury is still out if a piece of apparel can be considered a basic if it has a massive logo on it, but the Fear Of God ESSENTIALS 3D Silicon Applique Pullover Hoodies come in enough colors and have enough fans to be a closet staple for many. The hoodies are massively popular on StockX and come in a variety of colors, each neutral shade slightly different from the others offering untold opportunities to build into the perfect outfit.
Travis Scott x McDonald’s Crew TShirt
For many, the holidays are a time to relax and wind down, spending time with loved ones and taking inventory of the last year, so the idea of getting an additional job might not be at top of mind. But just because you’re rocking the Travis Scott McDonald’s Crew TShirt doesn’t mean you need to sling any burgers. The shirt that was originally released just for McDonalds employees has become one of the hottest items of the year and shows no signs of slowing down. Whether you’re a huge fan of La Flame or just like ironic merch, this shirt is a great sartorial investment.
Anti Social Social Club Mind Games Hoodie
Anyone who is a fan of Anti Social Social Club needs this hoodie. While every release has something unique or special that makes it worth grabbing, this is the hoodie that is closest to the heart of what ASSC stands for. It’s a black hoodie (perfect), with the standard ASSC logo on both the back and the chest, without any added bells or whistles. This is what purest expression of ASSC, and anyone who is on that sadboy, sadgirl, sadperson, sadfriend wave can jump right on it and ride it all the way to 2021.
Sony PS5 Blu-Ray Edition
Yeah, you had to scroll all the way down to here to find the PS5, but that’s because we knew you’d make it this far to find the hottest gift of the year. It’s not just that everyone is looking for the next generation of gaming, or that they need new games to play, or that distribution channels have made the PS5 harder to source than it’s predecessors, it’s also just a really nice gift and a way to treat anyone who has made it this far into 2020. Lucky for everyone, StockX makes the PS5 as accessible as ever, but don’t take our word for it. Click through and get your own!
Microsoft Xbox Series X
Some gamers are all about Nintendo, some are PlayStation ride-or-dies, while others will only ever play their games on the Xbox. We say: Why choose? When you have access to all systems, you get access to all games, which means an endless supply of enjoyment. Whether you’re still holding onto platform loyalty or are ready to experience all the gaming world has to offer, we have plenty of Xbox Series X (and S) to offer for whoever is ready to step their game up.
Pokemon Champions Path Elite Trainer Box
Some folks just like opening gifts, and if that’s the kind of vibe you’re looking for, the Pokemon Champions Path Elite Trainer Box (2020) might be right for you.

Whether you’re trying to expand your Pokemon deck, make good on an investment, or just stock up for the collection, this box is like a Matryoshka doll of exciting surprises.
Gucci Bifold Wallet Signature Black
Gucci calls this wallet their Signature and it couldn’t be named better. The interlocking GG logo is debossed into smooth leather to make for a look that’s as classic as it is recognizable. But more than that, the wallet is one of the more affordable leather goods from the luxury brand meaning that you’ll still have plenty of money to fit inside the wallet even after you’ve bought it. It’s a great surprise for any holiday morning and a lot of bang for the buck.
Louis Vuitton Key Pouch Monogram Canvas Brown
Sometimes less really is more, and when it comes to making a huge impact with a small gesture the Louis Vuitton Key Pouch in Monogram Canvas Brown sets the example. The wildly popular piece takes all the gravitas and recognition of LV’s classic print and brings it down to pocket size for any moment of flex. It’s just big enough to hold all the essentials, but just small enough to drop into any situation when you want to bring a bit of bling.
Telfar Shopping Bag Small Black
There are a lot of reasons to get excited about Telfar: the company is Black-owned, the products are affordable, vegan, and accessible, the bags come in tons of colors. But one of our favorite factors is that the bags come in so many sizes. This Telfar Shopping Bag Small in Black is just big enough to carry everything you need without weighing you down with anything else. The Telfar logo stands proud on the bag, letting folks know you got that Bushwick Berkin, but it’s small enough to announce you’re always on the go. It’s the perfect mix for the perfect minx.
Casio G-Shock GMW-B5000GD-9
Not everything that glitters is gold, but this watch certainly does. One of the most popular watches on StockX, this all gold Casio G-Shock gives you all the retro vibes from a holiday movie like Die Hard with all the cultural references of a first-class romance like Speed. The holidays are all about nostalgia, and a classic digital watch done up in gold is in style every season.
Casio G-Shock x One Piece GA-110JOP-1A4
If you haven’t started One Piece, it’s never too early to start, and with hundreds and hundreds of hours of the anime to get through (plus dozens of specials and films) you’re going to need a way to keep track of how much time you’ve spent watching (plus there’s the manga to get through). The Casio G-Shock collaboration with the anime will help you mark the days as they tick by following Straw Hat and his pirate supremacy.
