Our favorite brands have gone all out to deliver numerous silhouettes, each bolder than the last. Between new colorways and brand-new pairs, we have selected the best sneakers to gift for Christmas.
Adidas Campus 00s
A pop culture and fashion icon, the adidas Campus is one of the most emblematic models from the three stripes brand. A flagship model of the 80s, its unmistakable suede upper moved beyond the basketball courts to make a striking entrance into the world of hip-hop and skateboard culture. Its old school look is now widely seen on the streets, on the feet of sneaker enthusiasts.
Adidas Samba
While the Samba was originally a training shoe, it has come a long way since its creation. Appearing in the 50s, before the Stan Smith or the iconic Superstar, its performance capabilities were first showcased during a football match in Germany. Since then, its classic upper and gum sole have stayed true to its heritage. From the football pitch to the streets, the Adidas Samba is a timeless classic that, to this day, continues to carry the German sportswear brand.
Corteiz x Nike Air Max 95
This year, the founder of Corteiz made a major statement by bringing his creative and distinctive vision to the Swoosh brand. Announced in January on the facade of NikeTown London, the collaboration between Corteiz and Nike brilliantly set the pace for the first months of the year. From London to New York via Paris, the Corteiz x Nike Air Max 95 SP brought Tinker Hatfield's silhouette back to the forefront and remain one of the best releases of the year.
New Balance 1906D Protection Pack
Following the success of the New Balance 2002R, the 1906 silhouette received its own iconic Protection Pack treatment. The deconstructed lines of the Protection Pack were added to the sleek profile of the New Balance 1906. An opportunity to discover overlays made of mesh or leather, paired with the "N" logo integrated into the N-Lock system. Finally, each pair retained the ABZORB and N-Ergy technologies to combine comfort and functionality.
Air Jordan 4
Jordan's iconic model once again made waves. Starting from the spring season, Nike SB and Jordan continued writing history through Tinker Hatfield's silhouette. By combining their expertise, the two branches delivered a special edition that was met with great success. While this pair stands as one of the best of the year, the brand's designers did not wait for its success to continue expanding the range with new colorways.
Nike Air Force 1
After forty years of existence, Bruce Kilgore's model still holds an important place within the Nike catalog. With its timeless and understated design, many partners have unveiled superb versions of the Nike Air Force 1 to make it a must-have collector's piece.
UGG Tazz Slipper
An essential best-seller from the Australian brand, the UGG Tazz has become the go-to winter model. A perfect slipper for every occasion, indoors and outdoors, the Tazz Slipper fits right into the mule trend. With its soft suede upper, sheepskin lining and multiple colorways, it is the ideal companion for the winter season. Just remember to waterproof your pair!
Salomon XT-6
Designed by Benjamin Grenet, the XT-6 has established itself as the undisputed classic from the French brand. The design has seen a surge in popularity this year, largely driven by the Gorpcore trend. With its breathable mesh upper, the XT-6 features an ACS cushioning sole that provides optimal stability and shock absorption.
