The long-awaited Air Jordan 4 Zen Master is finally dropping on June 6th, where each pair will arrive for $210. One sad news is that the sneaker enthusiasts residing in the US will have to wait for a wider release, as these shoes aren’t released in the country.

A gradient arrangement in various tones of pink and purple wraps the uppers.

The shoe is finished with a black and white tiered footbed, a heel Air unit, and a grey and black sole unit.


2) Air Jordan 1 High OG Stage Haze

Black patterned accents contrast the white leather foundation of this Air Jordan 1 High OG. Gray suede adorns the heel counter, while a dusty pink outline of the Swoosh emblem appears on the tongue tags. The Wing insignia is debossed in black on the ankle collar, and the footwear is complete with a white footbed and grey outsole.

Originally supposed to release on May 14, the Air Jordan 1 High OG "Stage Haze" will now be accessible for $170 on June 8, 2022, through SNKRS and select retailers.

This sneaker, which celebrates Nike Air Max’s 35th anniversary, has grid-like elements across the surface of the top and blue nubuck on the mudguard and heel counter. The "3.26" detail on the aglets confirms that this footwear was released in honor of Air Max Day, marked on March 26th. A sail footbed and a frosty blue outsole enhance the sneaker's aesthetic.


5) Nike Air Force 1 Purple Skeleton

The top of this Air Force 1 is monotone and fashioned with "Court Purple" leather. The side of the shoe sports a clear white skeleton X-ray impression of the foot.

Though it is named the General Purpose Shoe, the sneaker mimics Nike’s Killshot 2 fashioned with Tom Sachs’ touch. The shoe features a cream mesh foundation with grey nubuck embellishments and a white fused Swoosh.

Fuses once again surround the nubuck mudguard and its toe box. The gray netting tongues bear the tongue tags and pull tabs akin to the Nike Mars Yard line, but rather than red, it is royal blue, which is repeated on the inner liner with the NikeCraft logo.

Tom's signature sits on the heel tab, and the cup-sole footbed is gum with a rigid black waffle bottom to finalize the sneaker.
