TOP SNEAKER RELEASES WEEK 31

The Nike Air Force 1 Low ‘Patent Denim’ combines Coastal Blue denim with a glossy patent finish, creating an unusual mix of materials. The visible weave, uneven shading and contrasting flax stitching give this classic a slightly worn, almost vintage-inspired look. Blue laces, silver AF1 dubraes, mini Swooshes and Nike Air branding complement the design, whilst the translucent, slightly yellowed natural sole rounds off the worn-in vibe. Despite the glossy finish, the denim character remains clearly visible. The trainer drops on 31 July. 

The adidas Climacool Laced ‘Night Cargo’ combines futuristic 3D printing with a design more suited to everyday wear. The open mesh upper continues to ensure maximum breathability, whilst the new closed outsole is better at keeping out dirt and small stones. The olive-grey colourway emphasises the technical look, whilst distressed white Three Stripes provide a surprising vintage contrast. Matching laces, Climacool branding on the heel and a grippy outsole round off the design. The trainer is set to be released on 1 August for €170. 

The Air Jordan 13 ‘Flint’ returns in 2026 with its legendary OG look. White leather on the toe box and tongue is paired with navy mesh featuring reflective 3M details, which give the colourway its signature effect. Flint Grey suede on the heel and midsole, subtle University Blue accents and the holographic cat’s eye on the ankle round off this classic design. The distinctive sole pods echo the silhouette’s look, inspired by a big cat’s paw. The trainer launches on 1 August for €200. 

The Air Jordan 1 High OG ‘Love Letter’ pays tribute to Michael Jordan’s emotional farewell to basketball. White leather is paired with dark suede and brown pebbled leather, giving the colourway the look of a well-worn basketball. Details such as ‘Much Love and Respect’ on the ankle, a basketball-shaped hangtag and a special box further emphasise the personal story. Rather than a title, the focus here is on Jordan’s love for the game. The trainer drops on 1 August for €180. 

The New Balance 991v2 Made in UK ‘Wind Chime’ brings back the modern version of the 991 in a subtle, high-quality colourway. The Made in UK craftsmanship from Flimby combines with the signature blend of premium materials, clean panelling and comfortable cushioning. The light “Wind Chime” look is clean, sophisticated and versatile, without being flashy. This makes the trainer a perfect fit for any high-end rotation, whilst remaining comfortably suitable for everyday wear. The New Balance 991v2 Made in UK “Wind Chime” drops on 1 August for €250.
