Celebrities and collaborations were the name of the game this week in sneakers, as Kanye West premiered a ton of new Yeezys, from 350’s to 500’s and Wave Runners during his Twitter deluge while also finding time to roast Nike’s M2K Tekno. Kanye’s label mate Travi$ Scott’s “Cactus Jack” 4s were unvieled by rapper Sheck Wes and then rocked on court by NBA sneaker king PJ Tucker, and Tyler, The Creator also got in on the fun as he previewed a new Golf Le Fleur Converse One Star. Air Max collaborations both classic and futuristic with ACRONYM and atmos made waves, as did a rumored Vans/Nasa collaboration. On the Air Jordan front, the “Best Hand In The Game” collection garnered a great deal of attention, and Nike Running claimed their share of the spotlight with the announcement of their amazing new FlyPrint technology and the upcoming re-release of a classic Zoom Fly. For all that and more, dig in to this week’s edition of Top Stories.
