With that in mind, our staff took the time to pick the best kicks of the week as we provide the latest edition of <strong>Snkrs Day Staff Picks<\/strong>.\u00a0Headlined by a Nike Air Max model and another coveted Jordan silhouette, this week&#8217;s selection of picks will not disappoint. Flip through the pages below to take a look at the kicks selected by our staff.<\/p>\n<h2>Sid Ashford<\/h2>\n<p>Nike Air Max 1 &#8220;Liquid Metal&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Prayers have been answered! Guys, we don&#8217;t have to be jealous of women anymore. This beautiful shoe is finally releasing in mens sizes. Bless up.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>Ian Stonebrook<\/h2>\n<p>Jordan &#8220;Ultimate Gift of Flight&#8221; Pack<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I personally think this is one of the better packs ever released. If you actually play basketball, or have ever tried on the Air Jordan XX9, it&#8217;s a really great shoe. If you don&#8217;t and just buy the pack for the 11s, then JB really is winning and will continue to do this again. On the flip side, no pun intended, the 11s alone may be worth $500 after they release, so maybe it&#8217;s a bizzaro world come up. Never really cared too much about how much a shoe was worth after retail, but I think these are two really solid shoes and a reasonably fair deal.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>Gregory Williams<\/h2>\n<p>Nike Kobe 9 Elite \u201cWhat the Kobe\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve always been a fan of the &#8220;What The&#8221; motif. So to see it hit the Kobe 9 Elite is definitely dope. Takes the theme to a whole new level.&#8221;<br \/>\n<!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2>Pierce Simpson<\/h2>\n<p>High Schooler Laces Lesser Fortunate Classmate With Jordan 11s<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The world needs more people like you, Yaovi!
