Last week wrapped up May with serious heat, and this week’s sneaker releases are packed with fresh drops that’ll have sneakerheads checking their apps and local shops. From a nostalgic Air Max Uptempo to a bold new SB Dunk Low collaboration, let’s dive into all the notable pairs hitting shelves this week.
June 5th Sneaker Releases
Air Max 95 x WORKSOUT
Nike’s collaboration with South Korean retailer WORKSOUT brings a creative twist to the iconic Air Max 95 silhouette. Dropping on June 5th, this pair draws inspiration from school uniforms worn by the brand’s founders. A camo-style upper in Medium Olive and Sequoia hues sets the tone, with a large textured Swoosh on the side and rugged materials running down the eyestays. The WORKSOUT logo hits the tongue, while a black midsole and lugged outsole provide an aggressive finish. This limited-run collab will drop in men’s sizes for $190—don’t sleep on it.
Nike Air Max Uptempo ’95 Bulls
The Air Max Uptempo ’95 returns in a colorway that screams Chicago pride. Worn by Scottie Pippen back in the day, this updated edition keeps it classic with a white leather upper, black suede mudguard, and University Red accents. The visible Air unit and speed lacing system keep things rooted in basketball DNA, while the bold “Air Uptempo” branding adds retro flair. This Footlocker-exclusive drops June 5th in men’s sizes for $160.
New Balance 2002R
New Balance is back with another Footlocker-exclusive 2002R that blends subtle style and high-performance tech. This edition features pastel blue suede overlays and tonal mesh across the upper. Off-white leather details and a ribbed sail midsole with pink accents give it a soft but striking look. Underfoot, ENCAP and ABZORB cushioning ensure all-day comfort. Releasing in men’s sizes for $150, this colorway drops June 5th—one of the cleanest lifestyle sneakers of the week.
June 6th Sneaker Releases
Air Max 95 OG ‘Bright Mandarin’
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Air Max 95, Nike is bringing back the fan-favorite “Bright Mandarin” colorway, last seen in 2011. Featuring a classic gradient suede side panel, vibrant orange lace loops, and triple-color Air Max branding on the tongue, this OG build stays true to form. Reflective accents on the heel, black polyurethane midsole, and a bold orange outsole round out the retro feel. Look for this heritage pair to drop on SNKRS and select retailers on June 6th for $190.
Nike SB Dunk Low Pro x Hayley Wilson
Australian skateboarder Hayley Wilson drops her first SB Dunk collab, and it’s a standout. Inspired by her tattoos, this Dunk Low blends Court Purple suede overlays with a black quarter panel and white-accented Swoosh. The midsole also gets the white treatment, paired with a translucent blue outsole featuring custom graphics. Zoom Air cushioning ensures peak board feel, while gothic “Nike” branding on the heel tab adds flair. This release will hit skate shops on June 5th and SNKRS on June 6th, retailing for $140 in men’s sizes. Expect these to fly.
With classic retros, global collaborations, and exclusive colorways in the mix, this week’s sneaker release calendar is stacked. Be ready—L’s come quick. Until next time check out my closet pick.
