March was a great month for sneakers but April looks to be an even better one with Jordan Brand, Yeezy, Nike, and other brands all making their case.
April is always a fun month for sneakers with Spring officially here, as brighter colorways are ahead of us and brands always capitalize on the warmer weather and the demand. While last April we didn’t get too many releases with the pandemic just settling in and hitting the world, this April is needed, and by the early looks of it, we have a lot to look forward to.
NIKE RELEASES
Starting off with Nike, the Dunk theme looks to continue with the silhouette easily highlighting the Swoosh’s April 2021 lineup. Featuring a handful of different renditions, the Nike SB Dunk Low will call for the Wasted Youth collaboration along with the ACG Celadon rendition. To further the April collection, the Dunk Low will also be releasing in spring-minded renditions with the Lemon Drop, Free 99, Michigan, and Green Glow iterations all scheduled to drop, as well as the Sulfur High. Other Nike releases will include LeBron James’ Air Max 95, the Skepta Tailwind V, Nike GO FlyEase, and Opening Day celebratory editions with the LeBron 7 Baseball Blue and the Air Griffey Max 1 Jackie Robinson.
OTHER BRANDS
Taking a break from the big 3, other brands like Reebok, ASICS, and New Balance will also be giving their take to April via a couple of great collaborations. ASICS will be launching a collection with Coca-Cola while Reebok will be teaming up with Candy Land. Lastly, Nice Kicks will be releasing two New Balance 992 colorways in their collaboration with Amoeba Music. Collaborations aside, Reebok will be bringing back the Answer IV OG in White/Red.
