It feels like forever ago that the “opening the vault” discourse was at its peak, but we finally get to see the end results of that discussion this week.
Yes, the Undefeated Air Jordan 4 goes from a sneaker of legend to one that’ll hit public hands for the first time this week, but it’s far from the only drop to circle. Coming that same day is the Air Jordan 10 “Steel,” a mainline retro release flanked by the Air Jordan 1 High “Self-Expression” and Air Jordan 4 “Pizza” in the days before. Elsewhere on the slate, it’s a surprisingly deep slate for New Balance, introducing the 204L and issuing multiple two-part packs: Tyrese Maxey’s on the 1906R and Hesi Low v2, fresh looks for the New Balance 1906L, and the “Grape Sorbet” 991v2 duo. And any appetite for some extra new models? The Giannis Freak 7 and PUMA LaFrance RNR each check off their introductions.
If you regularly check in to this round-up, it’s standard procedure: you can’t get the full picture without peruse our day-by-day breakdowns included below. Underneath each gallery, you’ll find hyperlinks leading back to our original coverage of each pair or collection, your place to find “Where To Buy” store lists and our detailed analysis of what they’re bringing to the table. We’ll keep this page updated with any late-breaking additions, but just in case, our Jordan Release Dates 2025 and Sneaker Release Dates pages will be automatically updated with any late-comers.
July 28th offers up just one for the hoopers: the Nike Book 1 “Desert Camo,” another “pageless” chapter in Devin’s story.
July 29th again begins with Nike basketball, tossing out a debut look in the Nike Giannis Freak 7 “Ignition.” From there, a proto-skateboarding release comes with the Nike SB Low Pro B “Sequoia” while an early running staple comes back to the Nike Daybreak.
July 30th pours out one for the fashion-forward dressers, as the Boston brand issues its hotly-anticipated low-pro, the New Balance 204L “Mushroom.” We stick in their headquarters for the New Balance 1906L “Olive” and New Balance 1906L “Beige” before shifting to Nike’s own trendy kicks, the Nike Total 90 III in “Fir” and in “Pearl White.”
July 31st is for the creatives, unleashing the customizable, wear-away Air Jordan 1 “Self-Expression.” If quality is more your game, don’t sleep on the New Balance 991v2 “Grape Sorbet” pack, dropping in paired green and pink colorways. Finally, the Tyrese Maxey New Balance capsule spreads the Sixers guard’s love for superheroes into the lifestyle and basketball verticals.
August 1st, as the first of the month is wont to do, drops off easily the busiest slate of this week. First, it’s the Nike Kobe 9 EM “White/Court Purple,” one of several “Team Bank” pairs for the silhouette expected in the coming months. Then we see the long-awaited drop of the Nike Dunk Low “Panda” collection in a variety of two-tone looks. Hip-hop fans can look forward to the Terror Squad Air Force 1 Low, basketbalers the adidas DON Issue 7 “Black,” and LaMelo devotees the PUMA LaFrance RNR “Flare” as another leg of Ball’s off-court journey begins. Stepping into the kids-only lane, the Lego Air Max Dn and Air Jordan 4 “Pizza” are exclusive to the younger demo. Lastly, the King pays off a Drew League PE with the Nike LeBron 20 “Pink Diamond.”
It’s harder to get more stacked than this: August 2nd splits between two truly monumental retros: the UNDEFEATED Jordan 4 and Air Jordan 10 “Steel,” doubling up the usual Saturday Jordan slate in ultra-splashy fashion.
