This Kobe Bryant-Themed Nike Air Force 1 Drops in December Here's an official look at the purple and gold colorway.

Image
  Kobe Bryant's  affinity and connection to the  Nike Air Force 1  have been  well documented  with the number of PE colorways he laced up on and off the court throughout his playing days as a member of the  Los Angeles Lakers.  Fresh off of Nike CEO John Donahoe confirming the  relaunch of the Kobe brand  last month, it appears that one of Bryant's PE-style Air Force 1 Low colorways is also set for a return to retail. According to sneaker leak accounts  Sneaker Files  and  @zSneakerheadz , a Nike Air Force 1 Low linked to the Black Mamba is dropping in Summer 2024. There are no images of the purported release at the time of writing but the accounts shared a photo of the "Kobe Bryant" Air Force 1 Low from 2009, a sneaker that was originally available only in kids' sizing. The accounts also confirmed that the upcoming release will don a "White/Varsity Maize/Varsity Purple" color scheme, and it's possible that the blocking m...

  Not only are classic Air Jordan styles like the  "Black Cement" Jordan 3  and the  "Columbia" Jordan 11  releasing this holiday season,  Jordan Brand  is also introducing a new Jordan 5 colorway in early December. The latest Air Jordan 5 dons one of the simplest color schemes for the silhouette to date, featuring a white leather upper offset by grey plastic eyelets, a reflective silver tongue, and a black sockliner with matching Jumpman branding on the heel. Breaking up the look is the speckled shark teeth detail at the midfoot of the predominantly black midsole, while a semi-translucent outsole sits below. The white and black Air Jordan 5 will not only be available in adult sizes but will come in big kids and toddler sizes too. Readers will be able to cop this upcoming Air Jordan 5 colorway on Dec. 7 via  SNKRS  and at select retailers for $200.

  In addition to the  Stash's Air Max 95  reportedly coming back, it appears that another  Nike  sneaker project from the Brooklyn-based graffiti artist may be returning soon. According to  Sole Retriever,  the Stash x Nike Air Force 1 Low from 2006 is rereleasing this holiday season. There are currently no images of the purported retro at the time of writing, but the account confirmed that the upcoming pair will be more or less identical to the original version (pictured above). The Stash x Nike Air Force 1 Low wears a predominantly blue color scheme covering the multi-material upper and is offset by grey overlays on the eyestay and mudguard. A black midsole and a smoky outsole complete the look. When One Dope ass Blogger reached out for comment from Stash, the artist didn’t clarify if his Air Force 1 is returning. Currently, the collab's return has not yet been announced by Nike. UPDATE (08/29):  Thanks to leaker  @Horhead_sa...

Stash's New Nike Air Max 95 Releases in December Here's how you can buy the artist's Air Max 95 collab.

  As Nike celebrates  Air Max Day  today, longtime collaborator  Stash  is giving fans a preview of what may be in store for next year's celebration. The artist posted what appears to be a pixelated version of his Nike Air Max 95 collab from 2006  on Instagram  earlier today. The caption implies that the upcoming sneaker project is coming for Air Max Day in 2025. While it seems certain that Stash and Nike are collaborating on the Air Max 95 in some capacity next year, it isn't confirmed if it will be a straightforward retro of the '06 pair. According to data from  StockX,  the original version of the Stash x Nike Air Max 95 resells for an average price of $888. In addition to collaborating on the Air Max 95, Stash has also put his spin on the Air Max BW, the low and high-top versions of the Air Force 1, and the  Air Zoom Spiridon. Release details for the upcoming Stash x Nike Air Max 95 collab have not yet been announced by the Swoosh. C...

The 'Legend Blue' Air Jordan 11 Releases in December The OG-styled 'Legend Blue' Jordan 11 will be available in full-family sizing.

  The "Columbia" Air Jordan 11 is reportedly the next colorway of Michael Jordan's popular 11th signature sneaker set to receive the retro treatment. According to  Sneaker Files  and  @zSneakerheadz  on Instagram, the aforementioned Air Jordan 11 makeup is returning in full-family sizing in December 2024. Sources have also confirmed to One Dope Ass Blogger that this original colorway is coming back next year. The "Columbia" Air Jordan 11 was part of the silhouette's original lineup in 1996 and was famously worn by MJ himself during the '96 NBA All-Star Game. The colorway has been released a handful of times since then, including in 2001, 2014, and 2018 in the form of a baseball cleat. It's worth noting that Jordan Brand has yet to confirm the release and likely won't do so for quite some time since we're almost a year out from the expected drop. The sneaker pictured above is also the 2014 release, as images of the upcoming retro have yet to l...
