Eight Can’t Miss Sneaker News Headlines From August 20th to August 26th

Autumn and winter are no longer as distance as they were even just seven days ago. And while the bulk of the sneaker industry has begun teasing footwear for the colder seasons, it hasn’t completely abandoned propositions better suited for the sunshine.

adidas continues to catch flak for it, but the adiFOM Q has turned out to be one of the most anticipated new releases of the year. A second colorway of the Yeezy Foam Runner-look-alike surfaced to great fanfare across social media, creating excitement for a brand that’s been struggling to create buzz around some of its solo efforts over the last year.

Over at the NIKE, Inc. campus, Brand Jordan unveiled a handful of Air Jordan styles for its last quarter of 2022, with pairs of the Air Jordan 8 Player-Exclusive designed for University of Oregon athletics were auctioned off via GOAT. The Swoosh-component of the conglomerate unveiled dozens of new styles of decades-old designs like the Nike Dunk and Nike Air Max 97, the latter boasting an understated collaboration with COMME des GARÇONS HOMME PLUS perfect for its 25th anniversary.

For a look at all that and more, including the latest from New Balance and LaMelo Ball’s PUMA deal, check out our top headlines from August 20th to August 26th ahead.
