Matt Varga It’s a pretty unconventional week of releases on tap this time around. In contrast to the past few editions where a number of releases spread out across the week, we’ve got a back-loaded slate on tap this time, squeezing many of the most notable into Thursday, Friday & Saturday. A heavy dose of New Balance comes at you with the first wave of MADE in USA FW ’24 drops, along with the sleek “Mirrored” colorway of the Sabrina 2 & Shai Gilgeous Alexander’s Converse Weapon. The following day, the Museum Visitor x ASICS GEL-Kayano 14 brings a techy three-pack while performance wear has a ton of notable releases; the debut of the Giannis Freak 6, a new LaMelo Ball MB.03 Low and the KD 17 “Vivid Purple.” Lastly, the Jordan 11 Low “Diffused Blue” provides a sleek cherry on top to close out the week on Saturday.
We’ve said it before, we’ll say it again- while the above gives you a birds eye view of what we’ve got an eye on this week, it doesn’t cover every single release that might be of interest.
