2/10Nike Air Max Plus TNPO ‘Black’
After being spotted at Martine Rose's Paris Fashion Week show a few days ago, the Air Max Plus TNPO is officially landing this week. Essentially, it's a mix between the Air Max Plus and the Nike Tiempo football boot from ‘94. £185. nike.com
3/10Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 ‘Cactful Purple’
What makes this Mexico 66 so special is that it swaps the usual leather with a bio-material that's derived from Mexican cactus. The laces and sockliner are also made from recycled materials, resulting in 85 per cent fewer CO2 emissions compared to “regular” pairs. Neat! £120. onitsukatiger.com
4/10Hoka Tor Ultra Lo ‘Oat Milk’
Yep, we get it, it's summer. But you can never be too prepared when it comes to British weather, so you still need a solid pair of waterproof sneakers in your rotation. The Hoka Tor Ultra Lo ‘Oat Milk’ is worth checking out. £180. hoka.com
5/10Cole Buxton The Wilson ‘Black’
Inspired by classic court shoes, The Wilson is crafted from Italian nylon and is fitted with a chunky tongue and an even chunker gum midsole. It's definitely more on the spennier side, but that hasn't stopped sizes from completely selling out. £310. colebuxton.com
6/10Nina Chanel Abney x Air Jordan 3 ‘Bicoastal’
Nina Chanel Abney's Air Jordan 3 has everything it takes to be the biggest drop of the summer, if not the year. We're talking bold green canvas uppers. We're talking special rope laces. We're talking redesigned logos. All packed in an exclusive shoebox that was designed just for this collab. £210. nike.com
7/10Neighborhood x Adidas Superstar ‘30th Anniversary’
Back in '05, Neighborhood and Adidas celebrated the 35th birthday of the Superstar with a sick collab. And now, on the 30th anniversary of Neighborhood, the duo are bringing back the exact same shoe to the masses. £140. adidas.co.uk
8/10New Balance 991v2 ‘Vintage Sport’
The ‘Vintage Sport’ is one of the first 991v2s to be made in New Balance's factories in Flimby. It's a great British sneaker that's painted in a great British colour combo. £220. newbalance.co.uk
9/10Vyn x OD1C ‘Art Basel Edition’
Made in collaboration with contemporary artist David Teplitzky, the Vyn x OD1C is handcrafted in Italy from some of the finest suede and leather known to man. It also comes with a sweet baseball cap, which is always nice to have. £535. vyn.one
10/10Huf x Nike Air Max 1 ‘Medium Grey’
It's been 20 whole years since Nike first teamed up with the late and great Keith Hufnagel for the Huf x Nike Air Max 1. And to celebrate this, the legendary collab is officially making a comeback. So if you took a L back in the day, you're in luck. £145. nike.com
