Peter Sim<\/h2>\n

Air Jordan 11 Low “Concord”<\/p>\n

“What else is there to say about this shoe? We already know what the ‘Concord’ is all about, but the low is a no-brainer. Probably one of the best summer releases in a minute.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Brittany Shelton<\/h2>\n

Nike Sock Racer SP “Genealogy” <\/p>\n

“Everyone’s excited about the return of the Sock Racer, right? I know I am, and I have been contemplating purchasing this pair since it popped up on SNS. A truly perfect summer shoe.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ian Stonebrook<\/h2>\n

Lance Mountain x Nike SB x Air Jordan 1<\/p>\n

“Where do I start? As of late, Air Jordans retros have been my beaters. That’s not on some humble brag, stunting stuff, I just really like Jordans and enjoy wearing them out. To drop an Air Jordan that you actually want to scuff when running around and actually want people to step on at the bar is a game changer. The Lance Mountain story is super cool too, and feels a lot more organic than a lot of the jargon that’s out there. I passed on all of last year’s AJ1s, but these are worth a try. My pick is the white pair, can’t wait.”
\n<\/p>\n

Zaul Zamora<\/h2>\n

Pigalle x Nike Air Force 1 Collection<\/p>\n

“With a love of basketball shared between the two brands, it’s only right these two join “forces”. Made with waxed coated leather that will age nicely, the varnished and tie-dyed treatments used throughout give it the feel of a vintage court. The translucent outside is a nice touch, with a playbook diagram covering the bottom of the entire shoe.”
\n<\/p>\n

Jasmine Majors<\/h2>\n

Nike Air Huarache “Turbo Green”<\/p>\n

“Slight work for the season. Lace them up with any Spring\/Summer wear. Only wish I could cop in my size.”
\n<\/p>\n

George Kiel
\n<\/h2>\n

Nike Zoom Crusader Outdoor “Pure Platinum”<\/p>\n

“I’ve heard great things about the Nike Zoom Crusader all year long, so I might try it out in this colorway soon.”
\n<\/p>\n

Allison Halfhill<\/h2>\n

UNDFTD x NEIGHBORHOOD x adidas Consortium Collection<\/p>\n

“Both shoes in this pack are dope, but the branding on the Micro Pacer is just so clean. What the pictures can’t show you is that the leather is impeccable on these. Great look for sure.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Matt Halfhill<\/h2>\n

atmos NYC x PONY Slam Dunk \u201cNY State of Mind\u201d Pack<\/p>\n

“Love both of these so much I might just have to do the corny, trendsetting, influencer move of wearing one of each color at the same damn time. Boom!”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Jordan Howenstine<\/h2>\n

adidas Element Refine<\/p>\n

“The Element Refine is one of my favorite Three Stripe silhouettes of all time, and the unique colorway included in the Tabor by Compound Lookbook is epic.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mike Parsley<\/h2>\n

Nike Tiempo \u201994 Mid \u201cNike F.C.\u201d Pack<\/p>\n

“Although both colorways from the Nike Tiempo ’94 Mid “Nike F.C.” Pack are dope, I’m particularly digging the Ivory\/Metallic Gold pair. White and gold always look great together on a sneaker, and Nike killed the finishing touches with the translucent midsole and gum outsole.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Cameron White<\/h2>\n

Nike Sock Racer \u201cGenealogy\u201d Black<\/p>\n

“Didn’t mean to swagger jack Brittany’s pick, but I’m excited to see the Nike Sock Racer return as well. The OG color scheme is sweet, but I’ve always been a sucker for a speckled midsole.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nolan Nevels<\/h2>\n

Nike SB Eric Koston SE “Hacky Sack”<\/p>\n

“Nothing says, “I’m a chill dude, want to chill?” like a hacky sack print on a Nike SB.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Josh Barcenas<\/h2>\n

End. x Saucony Shadow 5000 “Burger”<\/p>\n

“Regardless if it’s Whataburger or In-N-Out, I’m always up for a good burger, and shoes to go with it! This Saucony x End. Shadow 5000 is the perfect burger-inspired shoe for me. No pickles or mustard please!”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Kin Kwan<\/h2>\n

eYe COMME des GARCONS Junya Watanabe Man x New Balance MRL996<\/p>\n

“The Junya Watanabe Man x New Balance MRL996 puts a nice twist to the typical black\/red colorway. Vivid red and white reflective grey keeps it simple, yet sharp.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Sid Ashford<\/h2>\n

Nike Kobe 9 EM “Laser Crimson”<\/p>\n

“Anyone who knows me knows I’m a die hard Kobe fan, and the same goes for his sneakers. If these release stateside, you’ll definitely see me rocking these at the local gym.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Adam Bedell<\/h2>\n

Nike Lunaracer+ 3 “Stronger Every Run” Collection<\/p>\n

“Boston Strong. Nike pays tribute to the Boston Marathon with this eye-catching collection that uses the combination of white, black, electric green and metallic silver on all four sneakers. The Lunaracer+3 is one of my favorite silhouettes from Nike, as a perfect gym or casual shoe.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
