From Vans to FILA, the Seven Best Sneakers to Cop This Week

This weekly guide sorts the very best from the rest when it comes to the saturated world of sneaker releases, with information on release dates and where to buy. Please note: Some sneakers may sell out at speed.Raffles, friends and family releases, and player exclusives — all of that before a mere mention of the many fire general sneaker releases out there. The world of sneaker drops can be a tricky place to navigate, but we’re here to help. Behold, the best of the best of what's arriving on shop floors this week. From a Scott-ish skate shoe from Vans x Pringle, to a low-profile court classic by FILA x Highsnobiety — the cream of the sneaker crop awaits.Whatcha waitin' for?Shop the best sneaker releases on the market, as well as upcoming sneaker drops, below.Pringle of Scotland x Vans Premium Classic Slip-On ShoeRelease Date: November 10Editor's Notes: It's no secret Scotland punches above its weight-class in fashion, and the Pringle Argyle pattern is a born heavy-weight. Covering the Slip-On in brushed and felted wool turns Vans’ most casual shoe into something closer to a cardigan for your feet. The details are all upgraded: a padded collar, a higher gloss sidewall, and a Sola Foam ADC insole. Pringle’s golf-club heritage and Vans’ skate heritage would rarely overlap elsewhere, and that’s exactly what makes this work. Highsnobiety x Fila WeathervaneRelease Date: Available NowEditor's Notes: Not every sneaker in a tennis collection needs to belong on the baseline, and this one is designed by us to prove it. FILA’s vintage sportswear silhouette is made more relaxed here, with subtly shiny nylon layered over soft suede in a muted Weathervane grey. The slightly slouchy build, curved panel lines, toe-box lace loop and twin curved heels are details that reward a second look. Head-bands and short shorts are optional.BEAMS x Salomon XT-QUEST GTXRelease Date: November 12Editor's Notes: BEAMS has been remixing the Salomon trail shoe for years, and this time it has turned its attention to the XT-Quest. The ski boot buckle details are the point: They reference Salomon’s alpine heritage and make the shoe look like gear from a mountain rescue team. Under the buckles, it’s still a functional shoe, with a GORE-TEX upper and the signature quickLACE system. A little more Afters than Après, the all-black treatment keeps it understated with all the performance one would expect from a Salomon.Nike x Melitta Baumeister Women's Air Rift RockerRelease Date: November 12Editor's Notes: Melitta Baumeister’s approach is that you bring the body and she brings the shape, and here she has taken Nike’s Rift 2 and reshaped it by hand. The result is the Rift Rocker, with patinated leather layered over a neoprene-like upper and a grosgrain forefoot strap. The Swooshes on the toe tip and laces are molded to look like clay. The translucent outsole carries a custom “MB” traction pattern over graphics of footprints. It’s a sculptural, avant-garde shoe, and the most unusual release this week.adidas BADBO 1.0 Release Date: November 12Editor's Notes: Bad Bunny’s adidas Originals line keeps going, and the BADBO 1.0 its latest. The skate-inspired silhouette has quietly become the tentpole sneaker of the collab, releasing in a range from Crystal White to Navy. This Grey Three colorway is the neutral option next to the Night Navy version, and it should be easy to wear. If Bad Bunny’s other adidas drops are any guide, expect it to sell quickly.A$AP Rocky x Puma Suede '94 SneakersRelease Date: November 12Editor's Notes: A$AP Rocky is suede’s most stylish custodian, and here he takes it back to the '90s with nods to New York. The details are what count: a raw-edge padded tongue, a retro woven label, a slimmer tooling shape and a distressed leather upper. The bespoke touches are a gold PUMA lace keeper and a custom shoebox. With Puma releases ranging from motocross-inspired Speedcats to futuristic mules, this is Rocky declaring some icons are best left in their original state.Carhartt WIP x Nike Air Max Goadome Low WIPRelease Date: November 12Editor's Notes: Nike's new sneaker-boot hybrid gets the Carhartt W.I.P co-sign. Beginning life as an ACG Winter Boot, Carhartt W.I.P takes this all-terrain icon to the worksite. Replacing leather upper with the signature Hamilton Brown, this is all workwear atop Goadome’s Air cushioning and lug sole stay. Perfect for the drop in temperatures, this rugged release is a loveletter to fashion's function-focused moodboards.Highsnobiety has affiliate marketing partnerships, which means we may receive a commission from your purchase.
