Yeezy 700 V2 ‘Vanta’
To kick things off, the Yeezy 700 V2 ‘Vanta’ released on June 6th. marking the first all-black 700 since the silhouette made its debut in 2017, it’s actually named after Surrey NanoSystems’ ‘Vantablack’ material, which is one of the darkest blacks in the world. Crafted from a premium combination of suede and mesh, a chunky boost midsole sits down below for comfort that’s literally beyond compare.
UNDERCOVER x Nike Daybreak ‘Blue Jay’
Made in collaboration with Japanese fashion label UNDERCOVER, the UNDERCOVER x Nike Daybreak ‘Blue Jay’ hit shelves just one day later on June 7th. First unveiled during Jun Takahashi’s Paris fashion Week spring summer 2019 showcase, it’s crafted from a waterproof material with smooth suede mudguards for a luxe touch. Down below, an aggressively styled EVA midsole completes the show-stopping design.
Yeezy boost 350 V2 ‘Black’
Regarded as the hottest release of 2019, the Yeezy boost 350 V2 ‘Black’ changed the game when it launched on June 7th. Serving as the first ‘Triple Black’ 350 V2 since February 2017, it features a comfortable Primeknit construction, complete with the transparent mesh stripe that we all know and love. Down below, a boost midsole is present for incredible comfort, and it’s all rounded off with a hint of red around the heel pull tab.
Parley x adidas Alphaedge 4D ‘Aero Green’
How the Parley x adidas Alphaedge 4D ‘Aero Green’ is still available is beyond explanation. quite literally making waves when it released on June 8th, this shoe features a full Primeknit upper that’s partially made of recycled ocean plastic. Down below, you’ll find a 4D midsole that’s made with light and oxygen, while co-branded detailing hits the heel pull tab, finishing the eco-friendly design.
Off-White x Nike Air force 1 ‘MCA’
The drop date for the Off-White x Nike Air force 1 ‘MCA’ was kept under wraps until the morning of release on June 14th, so it should come as no surprise that these are extremely limited. Made in collaboration with the museum of contemporary Art in Chicago, it’s painted in a striking blue colour scheme and is adorned with many of Virgil Abloh’s deconstructed touches, including visible stitching, quoted text, and the red zip tag.
Yeezy 700 V2 ‘Tephra’
Regarded by many sneakerheads to be the best earth-toned Yeezy ever made, the Yeezy 700 V2 ‘Tephra’ dropped on June 15th. originally called the ‘Cement’, the upper is painted in various shades of grey which beautifully contrast against one another. An abundance of suede wraps around the model, while the chunky boost midsole is lined with gum rubber for added traction and durability with every step.
Supreme x Air Jordan 14 ‘White’
Possibly their most controversial collaboration yet, the Supreme x Air Jordan 14 ‘White’ of June 22nd marks their second Jumpman model since the three-pack of AJ5s in 2015. painted in a clean white palette, tumbled leather makes up the entire upper, while hundreds of metals studs give the shoe an almost punk rock aesthetic. While it’s definitely not their most popular collab, it shows that supreme aren’t afraid of trying new things.
Off-White x Nike Zoom Terra Kiger 5 ‘Electric Green’
Picking the Off-White x Nike Zoom Terra Kiger 5 ‘Electric Green’ over the other two was pretty hard, but we selected this one because of its crazy vibrant palette that hard to ignore. part of Virgil Abloh’s “TRACK”; collection from June 24th, it’s painted in a striking green colour scheme with deconstructed elements appearing throughout. one of the main features are the exaggerated traction grips down below that pay homage to track-dedicated shoes.
Air Jordan 1 High ‘Gym Red’
The hype surrounding the Air Jordan 1 High ‘Gym Red’ is off the charts, and it’s easy to see why. Dropped on June 29th, this AJ1 takes design cues from the 1985 classic, with a show stopping red, black, and white colour scheme to boot. Boasting a luxe leather construction, a Swoosh shoots down the lateral and medial side walls, while the midsole is infused with Nike’s Air tech for comfort you can write home about.
Yeezy 700 ‘Utility Black’
And last but not least, we have the brand new Yeezy 700 ‘Utility Black’. released on the same day on June 29th, this stealthy sneaker marks the second all-black 700 since the ‘Vanta’ earlier this month. Crafted from ultra luxe leather and buttery smooth suede, a ton of mesh is also present for all-day wear. Down below, a boost midsole makes an appearance, and like the ‘Tephra’, it’s also lined with gum rubber for extra durability.
