July 2026 is shaping up to be one of the biggest sneaker months of the summer. From signatures to Kobe releases and retro basketball sneakers July has them all dropping in this month.

The Cade Cunningham Nike ST Charge “Detroit Tough” is the first of the month’s releases to weave in a hometown narrative. Nike Basketball is also coming through with a packed month, showcasing the Ja 3 “Tiger,” KD 6 “Meteorology,” LeBron 23 “Stewie,” and two fresh KD 19 styles. This month’s shoe lineup mixes fresh designs for Ja Morant and LeBron James with a returning Kevin Durant colorway and additional choices for his latest model.

The Kobe line from Kobe Bryant will be another large piece of the month. The arrival of the Kobe Dunk Low Protro “WNBA All-Star” further extends Kobe’s popular Dunk line, and the Kobe 5 Protro “NY vs. NY” is steeped in New York lore. Brunson wore the sneakers during the NBA Playoffs and features color blocking from the Knicks mixed with shades of green from the Statue of Liberty. Nike even released the sneaker early in NYC during the Finals before its July release.

Additionally, some older Nike Basketball models are scheduled for release this month. The lineup features the Zoom Hyperflight, Air Griffey Max 1, Sue Bird’s Air Zoom Huarache 2K4, and Air Zoom Flight ’98 “The Glove,” plus Nike SB’s Air Max 95 “Club 58” offering a skateboarding angle.
