What’s up sneaker family! I see we are still on the quiet side, but I’ll chalk that up to us enjoying our lives and being back outside. This is actually the most excited I’ve been in a while about drops, and I’m thinking I may get back out there in terms of trying to get new releases. How about y'all? There are a lot of cool releases to look forward to over the weekend, and I’m not going to waste any more time rambling. So let’s take a look at what we got.

5 Sneakers To Watch Out For the Weekend of June 19th
I'm excited. Are you excited?
1. Union x Air Jordan “Desert Moss”
Release Date: 6/20
Whew! These bad boys are absolutely sick. Releasing to commemorate Union’s 30th anniversary, Union and Jordan did their thing on these, and I love the way the green laces contrast against the yellow upper. You could also swap the green laces for white to create a totally different look. I’ll even go on a limb and say that because of the yellow/purple mixes, this could even be a great shoe for Lakers fans. Imagine how these sneakers will look with a Lakers jersey. Fire right?
2. Union x Air Jordan “Taupe Haze”
Release Date: 6/20
Might as well, right? Same shoe, different color. Some people aren’t fond of bold colors, so for those that like to live life on the boring side (kidding), these Unions are probably the better choice. They can be paired with just about anything, and again, I think a lace swap would change the entire appearance of the shoe. That’s the beauty of sneakers, you can create any look you want.
3. Adidas Yeezy Boost 350 “Mono Ice”
Release Date: 6/18
Ladies and gentlemen this is a first. If you have been reading my blog since the beginning, then you know Yeezys are a hit or miss for me. It’s not that I dislike them, it’s just that sometimes I have a hard time trying to figure out how they could potentially pair with my wardrobe. For the first time ever, I am totally and completely sold. I am a huge fan of any blue monochromatic sneaker, and while the color is subtle, it still pops. 10/10.
4. Nike KD 14 “Deep Royals”
Release Date: 6/19
KD had himself a monster game the other night, so it’s only right that we show some love to the new KD 14s. I think KD has some of the most creative sneakers on the market, and he is never afraid to experiment with colors, designs, and patterns. The ‘Deep Royals” literally look like a painting that belongs in a museum. I’m totally going to get these shoes, not to wear, but to frame and hang in my house (seriously).
5. Maison Margiela x Reebok
Release Date: 6/18
I know. This isn’t a weekend release, but I couldn’t help it. Look at these! Do you see the masterpiece that we are looking at? Maison Margiela and Reebok always come together to create great sneakers, but I don’t think they have ever done anything like this. Bruh! If you can’t tell I am super hyped for these. Definitely one of the best shoes of 2021 so far.
