Was 2017 better than 2016? On just about every front, we’ll say it was.<\/p>\n
Sneakers? No exception.<\/p>\n
Following a year that saw the rising momentum of adidas and running shoes hurdling hardwood favorites, trends changed as they always do, though some things remained the same. The Swoosh and the Three Stripes continued to duke it out, with Nike going all in on Air and turning the clock both back and forward with a variety of can’t-miss collaborations. Conversely, adidas continued to ride the Boost wave with both the Yeezy and NMD shifting shape but still holding their space.<\/p>\n
So, how did we at Snkrs Day see and rank the year that just was in regards to releases? See below in the 2017 NICE50<\/strong> and make sure to hit us on social media with your own favorites and sleepers.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The soccer aesthetic has become more prevalent in today\u2019s style with the likes of Alexander Wang and Palace debuting several football-oriented collections this year. Always at the forefront of the incoming waves, Kith also released a soccer collection with Adidas this summer, the pinnacle of which was the Adidas Copa Mundial Ultra Boost. This iteration of the Ultra Boost was like nothing we had ever seen on the model. The combination of the iconic soccer boot with the captivating Adidas midsole encapsulates this year in fashion and footwear. – Anthony Guillen<\/em><\/p>\n50.
