While every member on the staff was of course excited about releasing our second collaborative ASICS Gel Lyte III, it wasn’t the only shoe that had us talking. Check out this week’s Staff Picks this week, and leave your own top pick in the comments section.<\/p>\n

Round 2 was just as fun as the first one. Congrats to all of those who were able to get their pairs. Stay tuned for more great stuff to come!<\/p>\n

This is a beautiful shoe and definitely a more accessible way to own a piece of Damien Hirst’s artwork. It is a fantastic follow up to last year’s Trek Madrone<\/a> he created for Lance Armstrong’s Livestrong “Stages” exhibit. Must. Cop. These.<\/p>\n

In addition to the ASICS Gel Lyte III “Snkrs Day 2.0” and the “Cool Grey” Air Jordan 11, this Air Jordan 5 ‘Light Graphite’ is the next must-have on my list. You can never go wrong with a mostly grey sneaker. Also, the soft nubuck-like material is a unique yet stylish attribute on this shoe. Hurry up 2011!<\/p>\n

It’s not often that you can get such a great looking pair of kicks with so many details for $75. Pictures don’t do the shade of blue on this shoe justice. Additionally, the way it contrasts against the red chenille and heather grey upper brings the whole shoe together. I just grabbed our ASICS (of course) so I may have to hold out on these, but let’s be honest, I’ll probably cave and grab a pair.<\/p>\n

As if there weren’t already enough reasons for Vashtie to be going out with me, she out did herself on this Jordan collab. A lot of sneakerheads have trouble accepting retro+ colorways and even more have trouble accepting the Air Jordan 2. Vashtie has everyone accepting and wanting both on the Vashtie Kola x Air Jordan 2 using soft shades and a plush finish. Plus, purple’s my favorite color. Vashtie, how’d you know?<\/p>\n

I’ve never loved new balance because of their relatively conservative designs and colors. This particular pair though looks to be one of the best colorways I have seen. I love the blue suede used on the upper and the combination yellow parts of the sneakers. In addition, New Balance provides great comfort.<\/p>\n

The Air Griffey Max 1 is one of my favorite silhouettes, and red\/white is one of my favorite color combinations. Put those together, and you’ll have a winner in my book every time. Could this be the one of the best Griffey Max 1 colorways of all time? I’ll wait to see them in person at the Snkrs Day shop before I decide.<\/p>\n
