As we stated last month, May 17 is going to be a huge (and expensive) weekend for sneakerheads. Leading the way is the $500 "Shooting Stars" pack featuring the Air Foamposite One and Lil' Penny Posite. The two-sneaker pack basically commemorates the illustrious career of Penny Hardaway and his sidekick, Lil' Penny.
Jordan Brand is well-represented this weekend with four releases: the "5Lab3" IIIs, "Nightshade" IIs, and the "Volt" and "Dark Army" Jordan Futures.
Finally, if you missed out on the adidas Originals ZX Flux "Pattern" pack that's exclusive to Sweden's Sneakersnstuff, the entire three-sneaker collection will be restocked tomorrow, in-store and online.
