There's nothing funny about how many dope releases are on the way this weekend because it's gonna hurt some wallets.
It's nostalgia season for Jordan Brand as one of its biggest releases of 2015 hits in the form of the Air Jordan VII "Hare" Retro. Hunting these down shouldn't be much of an issue, the problem will be getting to them before everyone else (and their bots) does.
Nike SB has two low-top bangers on the way, including the return of the elephant print dipped "De La Soul" Dunk colorway and a Nike Mag inspired version for all the Back to the Future fans out there.
On the collab front, Palace gets its first sneaker collection with adidas Originals, and the result is every bit as dope (or rather "top notch," as the London crew would say) as you'd expect. To check out everything that's dropping, here is A Complete Guide to This Weekend's Sneaker Releases.
