Since the start of 2017, sneakers have been rolling out slowly, but things really start to pick up this weekend. With drops from all the major brands, it's easily the biggest weekend of the releases of the year so far.
Adidas is launching its new Equipment line with the EQT Support "Turbo" Collection. Building off '90s EQT style, the Three Stripes has modernized the collection with new silhouettes, the incorporation of new technology like Boost and Primeknit and a Turbo Red accent color to replace the traditional EQT Green. Other offerings from Adidas come in the form of a wider release on the UNDFTD x Colette Adidas Consortium Sneaker Exchange Pack and the Harden Vol. 1 "Disruptor."
Nike has a strong presence this weekend with the NikeLab Sock Dart Mid in collaboration with Stone Island, the NikeLab SFB Jungle Dunk in collaboration with Undercover, the NikeLab Air Zoom Spirimic, Air Zoom Spiridon and much more.
With the Chinese New Year nearing, brands are continuing to release sneakers for the holiday. Nike is releasing the "Fire Rooster" Flyknit Racer, while Jordan Brand gives the Air Jordan XXXI and XII "Chinese New Year" colorways.
