Bringing in two new contenders, a collaboration between Union LA and Jordan Brand is set to release, bringing two new sneakers into the 2021 limelight. Additionally, pairs from Nike and New Balance continue to make an impact, as displayed below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every week on Nice Picks<\/em>, the team here at Snkrs Day selects five of their favorite releases this week. We’ve sifted through the noise to find the best releases for your hard earned money. Be sure to read further below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colorway:<\/strong> Desert Moss \/ Turquoise Blue \/ Dark Iris
Style #:<\/strong> DJ5718-300
Release Date:<\/strong> June 20, 2021
Price:<\/strong> $225 \/ \u00a3190 \/ $225<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Union LA and Jordan Brand are back with a set of Air Jordan 4s, one arriving in “Desert Moss.” Taking the same design cues used in the original two pairs, Union founder Chris Gibbs has kept the tied tongue, clear webbing, and Nike Air branding on the heel. A part of the “Tent and Trail” capsule, the outdoor inspiration is clear across the upper’s unique color pallet. Look for this pair to be one of the most anticipated sneakers to drop this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Union LA x Air Jordan 4 \u201cTaupe Haze\u201d<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Release Date:<\/strong> June 20, 2021
Price:<\/strong> $225 \/ \u00a3190 \/ $225<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another Union LA x Air Jordan 4? It’s a no brainer that both had to be on the list, with this “Taupe Haze” iteration taking the cake as this week’s best release. Earth tone colors, hits of pastel colors, and the “Sail” midsole complete a flawless design. Likely to be called one of the best Air Jordan 4s of the year, look to cop these directly on Union’s website come June 20. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
