Staying ahead of the game and being well-informed is what truly matters, right? Sneaker enthusiasts are no strangers to early leaks and unofficial previews, but Nike has taken it to the next level by offering an exclusive glimpse at several significant releases slated for the upcoming year.
We’ve already discussed some of the highlights individually, such as the return of the Royal Foamposites and the Air Sunder Max. However, these specific features shouldn’t overshadow the rest of the collection, which encompasses a wide range from Nike ACG (including the Exploraid and Torre Mid) to Nike SB (featuring next year’s Valentine’s Day SB Dunks).
Other remarkable offerings include an upcoming “City Pack” of Air Force 1s, designed to pay homage to cities that have made significant contributions to global trends, two nostalgic runners inspired by the 2000s from the Pegasus line, and a set of highly sought-after Dunk Lows.
Stay tuned for a comprehensive overview of the Nike SNKRS 2024 Preview.
The Return of legendary Dunks
Nike Dunk Low “Reverse Curry” Fall 2024Nike Dunk Low “Ultraman” Fall 2024
Three icons of the early Dunk era — the “Ultraman”, “Reverse Curry” and, “Silver Surfer” — are confirmed to return in Fall 2024. The first two are remembered among the co.jp exclusives, while the third “Silver/Blue” once featured the actual Silver Surfer of Marvel Comics fame on the insole. It’s not confirmed whether or not that detail will return, but it seems unlikely due to trademarks.
2024 is Foamposite friendly
Nike Air Foamposite One “Royal” Fall 2024
Nike is bringing back the original Dark Neon Royal Foamposites with some forgotten details that were last seen on the legendary phone ads; the black/blue carbon fiber shank and blue outline on the Swoosh are back. A first look at the Eggplant Foamposites are also revealed.
Air Force 1 Takes A World Tour
The famed Bruce Kilgore-designed lifestyle basketball shoe is hardly new to regional exclusives. For 2024, we’ll see Las Vegas, Seoul, and Shanghai receive their own unique iterations with each pair featuring hidden nuanced details. Las Vegas’ pair is inspired by the vibrant neon lights of the strip; Seoul’s is inspired by the nighttime reflections on the ground; Shanghai’s is inspired by the city’s love of Wheat-colored AF1s.
The Air Sunder Max is back
This classic Air Max-cushioned training/lifestyle shoe was an absolute must-have in NYC. An Uptown/Bronx staple. Formerly the Air Sunder Max, Nike has altered the name to Air Max SNDR.
The Air 180 is back in proper form
Nike Air 180 “Ultramarine” Fall 2024
Recognized as one of the History Of Air chapters in 2005, the Air 180, which featured 180-degrees of Air, will receive a true-to-OG re-issue in 2024. An inverted “Full 180” colorway is also coming.
Mule-fanatics, rejoice
Nike Clogposite Fall 2024
Once a straight-to-outlet speciality, the short-lived Nike Clogposite from the early 2000s, which were designed as a post-game relaxation shoe, is back in 2024. Rumors of a collaboration with Supreme also surfaced earlier this year.
Another original Big Bubble colorway
After the ceremonious unveiling of the “Big Bubble” for Air Max Day 2023, Nike is set to deliver the equally-timeless Royal colorway as a women’s exclusive (extended sizes confirmed, so don’t worry, fellas.)
Nike ACG is going hard
Ranging from forgotten classics to souped-up modern marvels, the Nike ACG footwear line-up for 2024 is very promising. Highlights include the ACG Torre Mid for Winter 2023, the turn of some cozy slip-ons like the Izy and Rufus, and the debut of the Mountain Fly Low 2 GTX.
SB Dunks are for lovers
Nike SB Dunk Low “City Of Love” Spring 2024
For Valentine’s Day, Nike is delivering two SB Dunks inspired by Paris. Some elegant artwork is hidden within two colorways of light sail and dark burgundy.
The Pegasus legend is re-established
