However, for those looking to cop the latest kicks, your weekend may have garnered an early start, as a variety of intriguing models were showcased throughout the week. With that in mind, the latest edition of <strong>Snkrs Day Staff Picks<\/strong> is rather interesting as a bevy of high-profile models are showcased by our NK staff. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">To see for yourself, flip through the pages below to enjoy the selections from our NK legion. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Gregory Williams<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Fragment Design x Nike Sock Dart &#8220;Camo&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">&#8220;I&#8217;ve missed out on every collaborative Sock Dart thus far. Here&#8217;s hoping that I can somehow land these. Trying to bolster my cozy boy lineup this Summer and these would be a perfect fit and welcomed addition. &#8221;<br \/>\n<!--nextpage--><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Nick DePaula<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Air Jordan 11 Low &#8220;Playoffs&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">&#8220;This is an easy pick. Since MJ was first spotted in a true player exclusive version of the iconic Air Jordan XI nearly twenty years ago, we&#8217;ve all been waiting on a Retro of this exact shoe. While I definitely prefer the collar liner to be black, like the Mid, the original PE featured a red sockliner, so these will do just fine. The summer XI Low launches are also becoming an annual tradition I&#8217;m entirely excited for.&#8221;<br \/>\n<!--nextpage--><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Ian Stonebrook<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">adidas EQT Racer 2.0 &#8220;Core Black&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">&#8220;Anything I can wear sans socks is more than the move this summer. I&#8217;m not nuts about this particular pair, but I&#8217;d definitely rock this model in another colorway.&#8221;<br \/>\n<!--nextpage--><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Jeffrey Jason<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Saucony G9 Shadow 6 \u201cMint Chocolate Chip\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">&#8220;I really like this sneaker. I am a fan of well-thought-out and executed ideas. Not only does this sneaker feature great materials, it features great packaging and nice detailing. I love that Saucony let\u00a0the colors of mint chocolate chip ice cream do the talking and didn&#8217;t apply a graphic to the upper or experiment with a unique material. Mint chocolate chip is a classic flavor of ice cream and this could very well be a classic in-line release from them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">In addition to delivering a great sneaker, Saucony nailed it with the packaging. I love the way they mimicked the look of ice cream on the top of the box. I love the promo photos they shot for this release as well.&#8221;<br \/>\n<!--nextpage--><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Darren Griffin<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG &#8220;Shattered Backboard&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\">&#8220;Cuz orange is the new black (toe).&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>words \/\/ Pierce Simpson: With the weekend finally here, plenty of us will enjoy the luxuries of sleeping-in and catching&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":149,"featured_media":443694,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[742],"tags":[1209741],"cultivate_rss":[],"class_list":{"2":"type-post"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v24.0 (Yoast SEO v24.0) -
