Converse<\/strong> makes a loud splash in the Snkrs Day Staff’s favorites of the week in both new and old form, while the latest collaborations from Ronnie Fieg<\/strong> and Stussy<\/strong> hold their own. Click through the following pages to get the full rundown of the week in sneaker’s from our roster’s viewpoint, and tell us what caught your eye in the comment section at the end.<\/p>\n

Ian Stonebrook<\/h2>\n

Air Jordan 11 “Michigan State” Custom<\/p>\n

“Spartan logo or not, it appears the next colorway of the Air Jordan 11 that should come out is White\/Forest Green. Being an MSU alum, this pair is already killer, but the color combo just works better than I’d ever expected. Shout out to DeJesus Customs for creating these, these might be a must if I make it back to homecoming.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Allison Halfhill<\/h2>\n

Converse Auckland Racer “Animal” Pack<\/p>\n

“This is the perfect festival shoe. It’s loud, fun, and shows you just don’t give a f*ck.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Jordan Howenstine<\/h2>\n

Danny Green’s “Gloves”<\/p>\n

“My guy. Go Spurs Go!”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Zaul Zamora<\/h2>\n

Nike Free OG \u201cCity\u201d Tokyo<\/p>\n

“One of my favorite Nike shoes, the Free OG, is back in my rotation this Summer with the “Tokyo” pair that is part of the City series. I’m usually not a fan of black Free soles, but these are too nice to pass up!”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

George Kiel<\/h2>\n

Nike Air Trainer Max 94 “Cool Grey”<\/p>\n

“This is a very clean colorway of the Nike Air Trainer Max 94. I really like the contrast of the patent leather and blue tinted outsole.”
\n<\/p>\n

Sid Ashford<\/h2>\n

Nike Air Max 180 “Bordeaux Safari”<\/p>\n

“Everything about this shoe screams premium, from its leather safari detailing, to its suede upper. When the days cool down and the leaves begin to fall, these will be perfectly paired with some denim and a heather grey tee.”
\n<\/p>\n

Josh Barcenas<\/h2>\n

Nike Air Huarache \u201cMetallic Silver\u201d<\/p>\n

“Every time I come around, Bling Bling!”
\n<\/p>\n

Kin Kwan<\/h2>\n

Converse CONS Weapon \u201cRay Pack\u201d<\/p>\n

“The heather grey upper with the neon speckled detailing is my favorite from the pack.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Brittany Shelton<\/h2>\n

Nike Free Flyknit Chukka “Bright Crimson”<\/p>\n

“Do I pick a different colorway of the Free Flyknit Chukka every week in Staff Picks? Yes, yes I do, and I’m not about to stop now. I love this bright crimson colorway.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Cameron White<\/h2>\n

Ronnie Fieg x ASICS GT-2 \u201cKith Football Equipment\u201d Brazil<\/p>\n

“GOOOOAAAAALLLLLLLLLL!! Point to Ronnie Fieg and Team Kith.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Jasmine Majors<\/h2>\n

f<\/p>\n

Nike Blazer Mid Vintage “Floral”<\/p>\n

“Blazers back! If only I could get these in my size. What’s up, Nike?”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Peter Sim<\/h2>\n

Stussy x Vans Spring 2014<\/p>\n

“Stussy is definitely a household name for streetwear, but they’ve got a pretty solid resume of footwear collaborations as well, including this upcoming collection with Vans. The whole collection is pretty much a home run with a great mix of colors and materials. My eyes are set on that off-white and volt Style 36 LX. The pattern reminds me of the drawings and doodles I would make on my class notes when I was bored at school.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mike Parsley<\/h2>\n

Black Sheep x Nike SB Dunk High Premium<\/p>\n

“GUCCI!”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nolan Nevels<\/h2>\n

Nike Air Max 2015<\/p>\n

“Only 299 more days until the next Air Max day.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
