Air Jordan 11 Cool Grey

Three weeks in and the Air Jordan 11 Cool Grey is still the best-selling sneaker of the week on StockX. This release has not only been the most colossal Jordan release of all-time, but at this rate, it could eventually become the most sold sneaker in StockX history, a title that Nike Air Force 1 Low White currently holds.

adidas Yeezy Slide Ochre

Yeezy didn’t quite jump over the Jumpman this week, but the adidas Yeezy Slide Ochre has topped many of the other most popular sneakers of the year in its first week on the market. Yeezy Slides have been massive hits all-year, and the Ochre colorway has lived up to the expectation.

Most Expensive Sneaker This Week

Air Jordan 1 High Patent Bred

If you are a Jordan fan, you should know that the Air Jordan 1 Bred and its not-entirely-true “banned” controversy was instrumental in Michael Jordan’s disruptive entrance into the NBA. Now, the iconic colorway is getting a makeover with the Air Jordan 1 High Bred Patent.

The Air Jordan 1 High Bred Patent arrives in the same renowned black and red color scheme as previous Jordan 1 Breds, but instead of a smooth leather construction, it utilizes a glossy patent leather. In traditional fashion, a woven Nike tongue label and contrasting white sole complete the design.

The Air Jordan 1 High Bred Patent releases on Thursday, December 30th for $170 on the SNKRS app and in select Jordan retailers.

Air Jordan 1 Low SoleFly

For the first time since 2018, Jordan and Miami-based sneaker boutique Solefly teamed up for another Jordan 1 collaboration with the Air Jordan 1 Low Solefly.

The Air Jordan 1 Low Solefly draws inspiration from the carnivorous wildlife of the Florida Everglades. Smothered in ferocious patterns, beige debossed toe wrap and heel wrap pop against a black and red premium suede upper. From there, SoleFly and Air Jordan logos on the heel tabs add a custom feel.

The Air Jordan 1 Low Solefly releases on Monday, December 27th for $150 on the SNKRS app and at SoleFly Miami.

Nike Dunk High Next Nature Pink Oxford (W)

In case the Nike Dunk High Moon Fossil (W) is too lowkey for you, the Nike Dunk High Next Nature Pink Oxford (W) borrows elements from quilted blankets and slippers for an out-of-the-box design.

The women’s Nike Dunk High Next Nature Pink Oxford is prepared for cold nights on the town. Its white and tonal pink quilted upper mimics the quality of down comforters, while its soft fleece interior offers warming comfort.

The women’s Nike Dunk High Next Nature Pink Oxford releases on Tuesday, December 28th for $130 on the SNKRS app and in select retailers.

Air Jordan 11 Adapt Legend Blue

The Air Jordan 11 Adapt is back, this time taking inspiration from one of the very first Jordan 11 colorways.

The Air Jordan 11 Adapt Legend Blue integrates modern performance technology with heritage design.

Using the FitAdapt app, wearers can customize their fit at the touch of a button for maximum comfort on and off the court.

The Air Jordan 11 Adapt Legend Blue releases on Tuesday, December 28th for $500 on the SNKRS app and in select Jordan retailers.
