While Jordan Brand dominated last weekend's releases with the Kaws x Air Jordan IV and the Air Jordan 1 "Royal," Adidas is making a huge impact this weekend. The Adidas NMD has been very popular since its introduction in 2015 and the Brand With the 3 Stripes is showing no signs of slowing down as it releases plenty of its updated silhouettes.
The NMD_CS2 returns for men and women with the "Ronin" Pack, the NMD_R2 will be released in a plethora of colorways also for men and women, and the NMD_XR1 will get a "Triple Black" colorway.
Nike Basketball celebrates the post season with the "Summer" Pack, a collection of sneakers for all of its signature athletes. The Swoosh is also releasing the Nike Air More Uptempo "Hoop" Pack and the "Multicolor" Flyknit Racer.
Jordan Brand is releasing the Air Jordan XIII Low "Brave Blue," an original colorway that hasn't been released since 1998.
For this weekend's collaborations, Converse teamed up with Japanese streetwear brand Neighborhood for a two-sneaker collection inspired by motorcycles. Eric Koston's new skate brand Numbers is teaming up with Nike SB for the Blazer Low AC. Following last weekend's drop of the Haven x Adidas Consortium Ultra Boost, the collaboration will see a wider release at Adidas Consortium retailers.
