Air Jordan 1 Low OG “Last Dance At The Garden” Releases September 2026

By
Mario Briguglio
-

The Air Jordan 1 Low OG is getting another nod to New York with the release of the “Last Dance At The Garden” colorway.

This sneaker release from Jordan Brand is a nod to both the Knicks’ 2026 NBA Championship win and Michael Jordan’s storied history at Madison Square Garden. During what was expected to be MJ’s final home game at the Garden in 1998, he sported the now-iconic “Chicago” Air Jordan 1 while playing in black Bulls alternate uniforms.

The history-making game will be represented with this brand new low-top iteration. While Jordan Brand maintains the color blocking reminiscent of the “Chicago” AJ1, they switched up the color scheme to white and black. In place of traditional red leather piping, Jordan Brand applies a floral design reminiscent of a tapestry.

The finishing touches pay homage to Madison Square Garden and its nickname, “The Garden.” Orange and blue accents also show up on the lace stay of the tongue.

Air Jordan 1 Low Last Dance At The Garden Release Date

Look for the Air Jordan 1 Low OG “Last Dance At The Garden” to launch on September 26, 2026, on Nike SNKRS and at various Jordan Brand retail locations. Expect full-family sizes to be available.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Officially Returns To Nike Basketball

By
Mario Briguglio
-

UPDATE 6/16/26: It’s confirmed, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is making his way back to the Nike Basketball family. There is still unknown of what’s next for his signature shoes.

Are they dropping the Nike SHAI 002, or introducing a brand new shoe? Guess we will just have to wait and find out.

Nike added Gilgeous-Alexander to their signature athlete lineup, which consists of some of the biggest NBA stars. “We are excited to welcome Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to the Nike Basketball signature family,” Nike said in a statement. “Following two straight MVP campaigns, we can’t wait to build on Shai’s impressive legacy with Converse as one of the most innovative players in the game.”

This may foreshadow Converse being sold off sometime soon as they continue to flop. We will have more information as it becomes available. Stay tuned.

Original Story:
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander may have just leaked the next step in his signature sneaker series.

The Converse Basketball athlete posted an animated clip to his Instagram Story of his logo spinning around an axle. As the mark spins faster it morphs into two Nike Swooshes for a second before reforming back into Shai’s logo.

While nothing has been confirmed, the image of Nike crawling out of his logo isn’t likely a coincidence. Given that Converse and Nike are sister brands, Gilgeous-Alexander might be teasing a joint effort for an upcoming shoe in his line.

Players have crossed-over from one Nike brand to another in the past, it just doesn’t happen very frequently. Shai Gilgeous- Alexander did it last 2020 when he went from Nike to Converse. Other player brand jumps include Jayson Tatum (Nike to Jordan Brand), John Wall (Reebok to adidas), and Dwyane Wade (Converse to Jordan).

Nike and Converse have collaborated through Players’ signature shoes before, most recently Devin Booker’s collection. Booker recently released the Nike Book 1 “Chuck Taylor” PE which pulled details from Converse’ iconic basketball shoe.

It’s still a mystery what Gilgeous-Alexander is hinting at. It could be a special edition of SHAI 001 in a new colorway. It could be SHAI 002. Or, it could be something else entirely.

More information should drop as Converse and Gilgeous-Alexander near a release date for his next signature shoe.

Nike Air Force 1 ’01 “Triple White” Returns July 2026

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

The all-white Nike Air Force 1 is one sneaker that requires no introduction. Nearly five decades after its initial release, the shoe’s classic colorway continues to transcend generations as a daily wear staple.

Nike is revitalizing the Air Force 1 ’01 Triple White, inspired by the sneakers produced in the early 2000s. But rather than tweak the timeless design, the Swoosh restored the shape and feel that collectors reminisce about from those vintage releases.

Compared to the popular Air Force 1 ’07 that is sold today, the ’01 features a narrower toe box, shorter profile, firmer construction, and overall sleeker fit. The upgraded materials also allow the shoe to feel more durable while maintaining its pristine all-white look.

As expected, the AF-1 still has traditional Nike Air cushioning underfoot for comfortable everyday use. The brand’s revised fit will likely be welcomed by fans who prefer the more athletic, streamlined profile of older AF-1 models.

Nike recently revived the ’01 tooling through its partnership with NIGO. Now, the upcoming Triple White release will allow that vintage silhouette to shine in its most iconic colorway.

The Nike Air Force 1 ’01 “Triple White” is slated for a July 2026 release. It will be available to purchase at SNKRS and select Nike Sportswear retailers for $130 USD.

A’ja Wilson’s Nike A’Two “Mulan” PE Celebrates Strength and Courage

By
Mario Briguglio
-

A’ja Wilson’s latest Nike A’Two PE takes cues from Disney’s Mulan, linking the iconic character’s brave narrative to the ongoing advancement of women’s basketball.

This distinctive color scheme follows Wilson’s recent “Susie Carmichael” PE, which paid homage to Rugrats. In this iteration, Nike has styled the A’Two with colors echoing Mulan’s wardrobe, and has woven in various features inspired by the well-known cartoon.

Shiny blue patent leather is utilized on the toe and sides of the shoe, forming the blank canvas for black dragon and cloud patterns. The artwork acts as a reference to Mushu, Mulan’s adventurous and talkative sidekick.

Jade green and yellow accents are placed strategically throughout the design, while a fiery red Swoosh serves as another homage to Mushu. Flower lace tab at the heel finishes off the theme while giving the kicks a more ornamental look.

The concept is very appropriate for Wilson. The heart of Mulan’s story lies in her demonstrating her power within a context that began by underestimating her. This can relate to how women in sports have had to continuously prove themselves. Wilson’s rise to the top and the WNBA’s growing popularity are starting to silence those questions.

The Nike A’Two “Mulan” PE is not expected to drop publicly anytime soon. For now, it looks to be a special pair made exclusively for A’ja Wilson.

adidas Harden 10 “Snakeskin” Releases Fall 2026

James Harden’s tenth signature shoe will add a reptile-inspired colorway to its Fall 2026 lineup. The adidas Harden 10 “Snakeskin” is scheduled to release through adidas.com and select retailers for $160.

A glossy snakeskin graphic wraps the molded upper in black, grey, and off-white. Rather than breaking up the print with additional overlays, adidas keeps the rest of the shoe subdued with a black knit bootie, matching laces, and dark trim around the opening.

Pink accents give the design its only strong hit of color. Small perforations appear near the forefoot, while three bright stripes extend up the back of the shoe from the outsole. A cream-colored midsole and matching rubber perimeter soften the contrast.

Reflective details are worked into the upper, including the adidas branding running along the center of the forefoot. Underneath, separate black traction zones use circular grooves beneath the toe and heel, surrounded by cream rubber along the outer edges.

The adidas Harden 10 “Snakeskin” arrives in Fall 2026 for $160, with pairs expected at adidas.com and select adidas Basketball accounts.

UPDATE 6/16/26: Caitlin Clark’s Instagram profile picture has been swapped out again, this time featuring yet another glimpse of her eagerly awaited Nike Caitlin 1 signature basketball shoe. Stay tuned for the official reveal coming soon.

Original Story 6/15/26:
Caitlin Clark appears ready to begin the rollout for her first Nike signature basketball shoe.

The Indiana Fever star recently changed her Instagram name to “caitlin1,” which could be the official name of her upcoming model. She also updated her profile photo with a close-up image showing icy blue sneaker detailing covered in repeating “C”-shaped traction pods. The image appears to offer an early look at the shoe’s outsole.

The social media update follows Clark’s recent announcement that her “Eras Tour” Nike Kobe 6 PE would be her final player-exclusive Kobe release. That immediately fueled speculation that Nike was preparing to shift the focus toward her signature line.

Clark previously shared a few details about the project during a February appearance on the New Heights podcast. According to Clark, the shoe will feature technology and materials that Nike has not used on a basketball model before.

Nike has not announced an official release date for the Caitlin 1. However, the updated Instagram branding suggests a formal reveal could be approaching.

The Nike Caitlin 1 is expected to retail for $140 in unisex sizing. Grade school pairs will cost $115, while preschool sizes will be priced at $105. Look for additional release details to surface soon.

Supreme x Spitfire Spring 2026 Collection Drops June 18th

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Supreme and Spitfire Wheels are reconnecting for Spring 2026, marking their first full collection together since 2018. The capsule releases June 18 at 11 a.m. ET through Supreme stores and the brand’s website, followed by an Asia launch on June 20.

Spitfire’s recognizable “Big Head” flame logo anchors nearly every piece. A quilted work jacket leads the range in olive, black, and white, with the white version covered in multicolored flame graphics for a louder all-over look.

Supreme also reworked the Spitfire mascot exclusively for the project. The flipped flame head now features teeth arranged to spell “Supreme,” appearing on zip hoodies, long-sleeve shirts, beanies, and the backs of knit sweaters.

Football jerseys carry the number 87 as a reference to 1987, the year Jim Thiebaud founded Spitfire Wheels. Polos, double-knee painter pants, mesh shorts, and a T-shirt featuring a burning American flag expand the clothing selection beyond the heavier logo pieces.

New Era fitted caps and Spitfire Glitter Formula Four Wheels bring the collaboration back to its skateboarding roots. The wheels also give the release a functional element rather than limiting the project to apparel and accessories.

Johnny Wilson filmed the accompanying skate video in São Paulo, Brazil. The lineup includes Troy Gipson, Harry Jumonji, Xandi, Emanuel Medeiros, Nik Stain, Thiago Neves, Sully Cormier, Leozinho, Raphael Soares, and Pedro Biagio.

The Supreme x Spitfire Spring 2026 Collection arrives June 18, 2026, at 11 a.m. ET through Supreme online and at select stores. The collection will release across Asia on June 20.

Bad Bunny x adidas Gazelle Indoor “Solar Gold” Releases October 2026

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Bad Bunny and adidas have another Gazelle Indoor lined up for October 2026. Dubbed “Solar Gold”, the pair is expected to release through adidas and select retailers for $140.

The upper comes dressed in golden yellow, with black Three Stripes providing most of the contrast. It is a sharper, more direct color combination than some of the faded and earth-toned Gazelles previously released through the collaboration.

Yellow and black also happen to match the familiar look of a New York City taxi. That has fueled talk of a possible connection to Bad Bunny’s “NUEVAYoL” era, though neither adidas nor the artist has confirmed that angle.

There may be another story behind the colorway. Bad Bunny’s Gazelle Indoor releases have so far carried nicknames linked to places in Puerto Rico, and this pair could follow the same pattern once the official campaign is revealed. “Solar Gold” is the only name attached to it for now.

Expect the Bad Bunny x adidas Gazelle Indoor “Solar Gold” to arrive in October 2026 at adidas.com and select adidas retailers for $140.

Luka Doncic Jordan Brand Europe Tour Hits Madrid, Belgrade, and Ljubljana

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Luka Dončić is spending part of the summer back in Europe, joining Jordan Brand for stops in Madrid, Belgrade, and Ljubljana. Youth basketball, store events, fan appearances, and The One tournament are all worked into the tour.

The first stop took place June 15 at Basketball Emotion in San Sebastián de los Reyes, Madrid. Dončić met with consumers and content creators at the Parque Comercial Megapark store.

Belgrade and Ljubljana will follow later this summer. Jordan Brand has not announced dates, but both cities are expected to host camps, retail events, and one-on-one competition for local players.

The One is Jordan Brand’s global tournament built around individual matchups. It gives young athletes a chance to show how they play, with skill, confidence, and creativity all part of the format.

The route also reflects Dončić’s own background. Madrid is where he turned professional and developed before reaching the NBA. Ljubljana is home. Belgrade brings the tour into another city where basketball has a long-standing place in the culture.

Jordan Brand will follow the remaining stops with photography, on-court footage, and behind-the-scenes coverage. Details for Belgrade and Ljubljana are still to come.

Teyana Taylor Teases Her Next Air Jordan Collaboration

By
Mario Briguglio
-

Teyana Taylor and Jordan Brand continue building their “Rose” collection.

After recently dropping her Air Jordan 3 “Concrete Rose”, Taylor took to social media to tease that she already has another project in the works with the Jumpman. Taylor left several details up in the air including the model, release date and concept behind the forthcoming shoe.

Taylor has worked with multiple footwear companies dating back to her days with Reebok and adidas. While Taylor started working with Jordan Brand some time ago, her first official sneaker launch, the Air Jordan 1 High Zoom CMFT 2 “A Rose From Harlem”, didn’t arrive until 2023.

Taylor’s second release with Jordan Brand expanded upon the narrative we saw from her debut. The Air Jordan 3 “Concrete Rose” was packed with rugged elements on the sole, vine-inspired TPU accents and a handful of bespoke details made for the silhouette. Every aspect of the sneaker felt unique to Taylor and set it apart from your average celebrity collaboration.

Sales have been impressive for Taylor’s AJ3 as they continue to move above retail on the aftermarket. Given how well her second Jordan Brand collab performed, it’s pretty clear another project from Taylor is on the way.

It’s still unknown which Air Jordan model is slated for Teyana Taylor’s next design. However, judging by her previous releases, Taylor may have free reign to unleash her creativity on another classic silhouette.

Stay tuned for more information on the next Teyana Taylor x Air Jordan collab.

Nike Kobe 4 GS “Draft Day” Releases June 26th

By

-

Nike is reviving the Kobe 4 “Draft Day” again with another release coming exclusively in grade school sizes. This white-based version releases June 26, 2026 at 10 AM ET via Nike SNKRS for $122.

This colorway is different from the Lakers inspired chase version that released with the full-sized sneakers. Rather than replicating the same blocking Nike transitions to an overwhelmingly white upper and places yellow Swooshes down the sides. The pair still alludes to LA, but it feels a lot brighter overall.

The Glacier Blue outsole is underneath the upper and peeks out subtly thanks to the wear-away finish on the shoe. According to Nike, the surprise hue symbolizes the effort youth players take to hone their craft. It adds a nice narrative to the sneaker instead of it just being another Lakers homage.

Grade school players can pick up the Kobe 4 GS “Draft Day” exclusively through SNKRS. At this time, no word on any supplemental retailers. You can cop yours June 26 starting at 10 AM ET for $122.

Nike Air Rift 2 “Kenya” Returns June 25th

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

UPDATE 6/16/26: The Nike Rift 2 “Kenya” officially returns June 25th for $125 USD via SNKRS.

Original Story 5/18/26:
Nike’s SNKRS Verified line is going retro with the re-release of the Nike Air Rift 2 “Kenya.” Originally launched in 2002, the shoe draws from the split-toe language of the original Air Rift while amplifying the silhouette’s aesthetic into chunkier, more geometric territory.

No release date has been confirmed for the Nike Air Rift 2 “Kenya.” A SNKRS Verified drop suggests it will launch as an official Nike silhouette in the future, though. In the meantime, fans of the Rift series have another reason to monitor the app.

Moving away from the predecessor, Air Rift 2 is fuller in shape with a bootie-like interior and thicker, more constructed sole. That design alteration provides the shoe with more stability while maintaining the airy, carefree spirit that set the Rift series apart from your typical sneakers.

The tabi sock-inspired toe split is still here, which is easily the silhouette’s signature feature. It’s present at the forefoot and extends underneath to connect the Air Rift 2 to its predecessor without making the shoe feel like a straightforward reboot.

The Kenyan theme recalls both the Rift’s performance running origins and Nike’s long tradition of deriving inspiration from Kenyan distance runners. The shoe’s pocked side paneling also aligns with other futuristic-looking Nike silhouettes from the early 2000s, particularly female-centric releases like the Air SuperFly.

Adding the Nike Air Rift 2 “Kenya” to its retro catalog gives Nike another unique option in a market that’s opened back up to experimental runners and under-the-radar archive shoes. While we wait for more details on this retro release, keep your eyes peeled for it on SNKRS Verified.

Nike Kobe Draft Day T-Shirt Collection Honors The 1996 NBA Draft

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Nike’s second Kobe Draft Pack blind box release looks back at one of the defining moments of the 1996 NBA Draft. The T-shirt collection arrives June 26, 2026 on Nike.com in Summer 2026, priced at $60 each in men’s sizing.

Most of the designs take their colors from the first 13 selections that night. Charlotte drafted Bryant with the final pick in that group, then quickly sent his rights to Los Angeles. Nike also worked Lakers purple and gold into the collection, filling out the story beyond the teams that passed on him.

Each shirt uses a two-tone layout with Kobe’s name across the chest in oversized, team-style lettering. A small Draft Day patch sits at the left hem and matches the artwork behind the tongues of the Kobe 4 Draft Day Pack.

The actual colorway stays hidden until the gold package is opened. It is a simple blind box idea, but one that fits the subject: 13 picks, several possible teams, and no way of knowing which one is inside.

Drake and Kevin Durant Promote Nike KD 19 “Purple Candies”

By
Mario Briguglio
-

The longtime friends joined forces once again for another promotional skit, which shines a spotlight on the Nike KD 19 “Purple Candies” or “Purple Stuff” colorway. Drake shows up at Durant’s house inside of a giant box designed to ship him the newest pair in-person.

Enjoying the chemistry between the pair, Drake takes an innocent sneaker drop to another level, truly giving a performance. Drake also manages to slip in a playful jab at adidas and Anthony Edwards while he’s there.

This is just the latest Nike KD 19 promotional skit to focus on Durant and Drake hanging out. While Drake has featured prominently in several promotions for Durant’s latest signature shoe, the sneakers shown so far haven’t been official NOCTA collaborations.

This “Purple Candies” iteration moves away from the vibrant, multi-hued designs of earlier releases, presenting Nike’s interpretation of a monochromatic purple sneaker. Every possible shade of purple adorns the silhouette, creating a look that will definitely get noticed.

The Nike KD 19 “Purple Candies” releases June 17, 2026, through Nike SNKRS and select Nike Basketball retailers. The retail price is set at $155.

New Balance 950 Debuts July 1st

By
Mario Briguglio
-

New Balance continues to expand its lifestyle catalog with the 950, an entirely new silhouette rooted in the brand’s basketball history.

Rather than bringing back another archival model, New Balance designed the 950 as a cleaner, slimmer alternative to retro court shoes like the 550. The sneaker first appeared in April when Cooper Flagg wore an all-white pair during a tunnel walk, offering an early preview of the brand’s next lifestyle release.

This upcoming colorway carries a warm, understated finish. Cream leather covers most of the upper, while oatmeal suede appears across the toe, heel, and signature “N” branding. Light grey piping outlines the layered construction without disrupting the tonal look.

A vintage-cream midsole completes the design, giving the shoe a slightly aged appearance straight from the box. Its low-profile shape also reflects the industry’s gradual move away from the oversized sneakers that dominated earlier in the decade.

Design elements borrowed from older New Balance basketball shoes remain visible throughout. Wavy overlays recall the 550 and 650, while the tongue branding reinforces the sneaker’s court-inspired identity.

The New Balance 950 is expected to release July 1st for $120. Check out the detailed images below as the launch approaches.

OG Anunoby Is Getting His First Skechers Signature Shoe

By
Mario Briguglio
-

OG Anunoby’s championship season is ending with another career milestone. Skechers has confirmed that the New York Knicks forward will receive his first signature basketball shoe.

The announcement came through an official press release celebrating Anunoby following New York’s 2026 NBA Championship. Skechers has not revealed the shoe’s name, design, technology, price, or release date, but company president Michael Greenberg confirmed that the model is currently in development.

Anunoby became one of Skechers Basketball’s most recognizable players during the Knicks’ playoff run. Several of his player-exclusive colorways also gained attention, including the “NYC Blue” pair worn during his memorable tip-in and the workwear-inspired “Foreman” edition tied to his physical defensive style.

Those moments helped introduce Skechers Basketball to a much wider NBA audience. The brand only entered the performance basketball market in 2023 but has quickly assembled a roster featuring Joel Embiid, Julius Randle, Isaiah Hartenstein, Norman Powell, Terance Mann, and others.

Anunoby will join Embiid as one of the company’s signature athletes.

Born in London and raised in Missouri, Anunoby is now a two-time NBA champion. He earned his first ring with the Toronto Raptors in 2019, although an injury kept him out of that postseason run. His role was far more prominent during New York’s 2026 title campaign.

He also became the first British-born player in NBA history to win multiple NBA championships.

Look for additional details about the OG Anunoby Skechers signature shoe to surface as development continues.
