Some weeks in the footwear world feel like filler. This was not one of them. From a Victor Wembanyama Nike capsule rooted in football heritage to a surprisingly wearable On trail hiker, the releases this week covered serious ground — literally and figuratively.
The standout moment came from a collab: Kith and Birkenstock’s 1774 line delivered two refined silhouettes — the Amsterdam and Zurich — that push the brand well past its casual comfort roots.
Meanwhile, Converse’s 1908 Pro Leather offered a cleaner, more premium take on a classic court shoe, and New Balance’s 204v added a low-key retro runner worth watching.
Here are all of the new releases you might’ve missed this week.
