With the this weekend hosting one of the largest sporting events of the year in Super Bowl XLIX, the\u00a0first quarter of 2015 is exciting times for sports enthusiasts. While the Super Bowl\u00a0is pretty exciting, sneaker fans should rejoice as well as the aforementioned first quarter of the year has produced a variety of intriguing silhouettes. With that in mind, the latest edition of Snkrs Day Staff Picks<\/strong> will certainly peak your interest as the NK staff has selected a variety of models ranging from a Air Jordan collaboration to\u00a0a pair of PEs that would certainly top Gridiron Kicks’<\/a> Starting-11<\/em> countdown. To see more, flip through the pages below and let us know which staffer selected the best heat.<\/p>\n

Ian Stonebrook<\/h2>\n

Just Don x Air Jordan 2<\/p>\n

“Technically we ran these images last week, but since they drop this weekend they’re my staff pick. I’m a big fan of Don C. I haven’t bought any of the hats and I probably won’t be buying these, but I really like him and what he’s doing. He’s always had a good range of muses for his projects and it’s cool how when we watch NFL and NBA press conferences on ESPN documentaries years from now we’ll be seeing today’s stars wearing his hats.<\/p>\n

I think these are great. I like the way Don dresses because it’s more just a collage of stuff he likes rather than trying to match. Theophilus brought him and Virgil by the office last year over SXSW and he bought some Air Jordan 4s from the vault and was a nice guy. Props to anybody that gets these, I’m excited to see them on people’s feet.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Gregory Williams<\/h2>\n

Converse Aero Jam \u201cChinese New Year\u201d<\/p>\n

“Having always been a fan of Larry Johnson and his Grandmama alter ego, this celebratory variation may very well be an instant cop for me. All-black with gold detailing, and a prism-like shroud and heel, these joints are fire. Job well done Converse.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Pierce Simpson<\/h2>\n

Earl Thomas’ Air Jordan 7 PEs for Super Bowl XLIX<\/p>\n

“Earl Thomas is arguably one of the best players in the NFL, regardless of position. His Air Jordan PEs are among the best, regardless of position as well. Best of luck to Earl and the Seahawks this Sunday.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Sid Ashford<\/h2>\n

Vans Old Skool \u201cFendi\u201d By TI$A<\/p>\n

“Even though it isn’t quite February yet, it’s already starting to heat up in Austin. With that said, I can definitely see myself rocking these with a pair of shorts and a blank tee. Shouts to Taz.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Darren Griffin<\/h2>\n

Diadora N9000 Red\/White<\/p>\n

“I’m really excited that sneaker culture is in such a space where brands like Diadora can regain their footing stateside. The N9000 has always been a low-key favorite of mine. This Red\/White colorway is money.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
