Air Jordan 5 Racer Blue

Following a strong release weekend, the Air Jordan 5 Racer Blue was the most sold sneaker in the past week on Stock. With simple color blocking and a muted palette, the Racer Blue is a good alternative to the OG Metallic 5s and an easy addition to any wardrobe.

Nike Air Force 1 Low ’07 White

Dropping one spot from last week, the Nike Air Force 1 Low ’07 White is still one of the most traded sneakers of the week. The longer this sneaker stays at the top of the sales charts, the more it solidifies its title as the most sold sneaker in StockX history.

Best Sneakers Releasing This Week

Air Jordan 1 High Brotherhood

Jordan Brand honors Michael Jordan’s time as a member of one of the most historic African American college fraternities with the Air Jordan 1 High Brotherhood.

Drawing inspiration from the Omega Psi Phi crest, the Air Jordan 1 High Brotherhood arrives with a vibrant University Gold, purple, and white leather construction. Its color blocking is simple and bold, similar to past Jordan 1 releases like the Shattered Backboards and Bred Toes. In retro fashion, a woven Nike tongue label and Wings logo at the collar complete the design.

The Air Jordan 1 High Brotherhood releases on Thursday, February 24th for $170 on the SNKRS app and in select Jordan retailers.

adidas Yeezy 350 V2 Dazzling Blue

Yeezy returns the Yeezy 350 V2 to its roots with the adidas Yeezy 350 V2 Dazzling Blue.

The adidas Yeezy 350 V2 Dazzling Blue is reminiscent of the 2016 Yeezy 350 V2 Black Friday Pack. Instead of featuring a marbled pattern and sheer side stripe, it opts for a solid black Primeknit upper and blue side stripe with “SPLY-350” text. At the base, a muted Boost sole offers comfort and support.

The adidas Yeezy 350 V2 Dazzling Blue releases on Saturday, February 26th for $220 on the adidas CONFIRMED app and in select stores.

Nike Dunk High Light Chocolate

Nike expands their Nike Dunk High collection with the neutral-toned Nike Dunk High Light Chocolate.

Composed of tonal brown and Sail hues, the Nike Dunk High Light Chocolate can be dressed up or dressed down depending on the occasion. Its premium suede and leather construction gives its timeless silhouette a luxe touch, elevating the design. From there, hits of green on the woven tongue label and heel tab add a subtle contrast. 

The Nike Dunk High Light Chocolate releases on Wednesday, February 23rd for $125 on the SNKRS app and in select retailers.

Nike Dunk High 1985 Acid Wash Pack

The Nike Dunk High 1985 Acid Wash is back, this time in two new colorways that will take your feet back to the 80s.

Releasing in both Orange and Yellow Acid Wash, the Nike Dunk High 1985 Acid Wash Pack celebrates the aged effects of sneakers over time. Washed out graphic overlays emphasize the appearance of wear and tear, while yellowed soles nod to the oxidation process. Also, these Dunks arrive in the design’s original, high-cut form, explaining why they have a different shape from other Dunk Highs, which have more of a mid-cut silhouette.

Acid wash themed overlays, the Nike Dunk High 1985 Acid Wash Pack releases on Wednesday, February 23rd for $130 on the SNKRS app and in select stores.

BAPE x Vans Old Skool 36 DX & Sk8-Hi 38 DX

BAPE joined forces with Vans once again to camo-clad iterations of Vans’ most renowned silhouettes.

This latest collaboration focuses on the Vans Old Skool 36 DX and the Sk8-Hi 38 DX. The Old Skool takes a more traditional route, sticking to the uniform green Ape camouflage that BAPE has been a signature since the late-1990s. On the other hand, the Sk8-Hi goes outside of the box with a mismatched multicolor camo styling that is fun and vibrant.

The BAPE x Vans collection releases on Saturday, February 26th in BAPE stores and select Vans retailers. Prices have yet to be announced on the two shoes.

Nike Kwondo 1 G Dragon PEACEMINUSONE Triple White

If you are having a hard time finding a sneaker that pairs well with a suit, the Nike Kwondo 1 G-Dragon PEACEMINUSONE could save the day.

In collaboration with G-Dragon, Nike Kwondo 1 G-Dragon PEACEMINUSONE Triple White delivers the wingtip derby look without losing the comfort of a sneaker. Its triple white leather upper with brogue trim is reminiscent of classic golf and dress shoes, allowing the design to flourish in a wide range of settings.

The Nike Kwondo 1 G-Dragon PEACEMINUSONE releases on Friday, February 25th for $180 on the SNKRS app.
