After what can only be referred to as a quiet weekend within the sneakers universe, we are ready for some massive releases this week. Nike is unleashing a handful of retro-coloured Dunks. New Balance looks set to drop two eye-catching sneakers with longtime collaborators Levi’s and Joe Freshgoods. Furthermore, after a busy few weeks with the DONDA release, Kanye West rounds off a phenomenal week of sneaker drops by releasing a pair of vibrant Yeezy 700s.

THIS WEEK’S NEWS: 29.08.21 – 05.09.21

Legendary moodboard turned brand JJJJound teased an upcoming collaboration with New Balance. The dynamic duo has joined forces several times, with each of their collaborative efforts reselling for unbelievable prices thanks to the limited nature of the release. JJJJound founder Justin Saunders has already dropped a 990v3 & 992 with New Balance. However, this time he turns his hand to the 990v4.

Teasing an image on the brand’s official Instagram account, a triple black 990v4 was posted with no release date. Expect a further announcement around the official drop. Do not be surprised to see more colourways leaked in the coming weeks, too. JJJJound is known for using brown, green and grey hues, a colour palette we expect to be used across this NB collection.

NEXT WEEK’S RELEASES: 06.09.21 – 13.09.21

Nike and New Balance are going head to head for my favourite releases of the week. Nike rolling back the years, dropping a Michigan and Celtic-themed Dunk Low. New Balance calls in the cavalry, drafting denim powerhouse Levi’s and Chicago native Joe Freshgoods to create a unique collection of 990v3’s. The Levi’s version is crafted entirely from denim, as you’d expect.  Freshgoods’ ‘Outside Clothes’ edition features an intentional colour clash of brown and aqua blue, cloud-pattern box included.

Never one to be overshadowed, Kanye West also returns to the sneaker game with a honey-inspired Yeezy 700. The 700 shot to fame as Ye’s first dad shoe-style sneaker and has gone from strength to strength over the last few years. Expect the ‘Honey Flux’ 700 to be an instant sell-out.
