Of course Nike’s got something in the tuck for Air Max Day.
Though it seemed quiet for a second with regards to the Swoosh’s foremost brand holiday, by sheer quantity, March 26th will be the showstopper; a new silhouette in the Air Liquid Max, a varied celebration of the Air Max 95, and some diverse additional drops for the celebration. However, earlier in the week, there’s another event worth watching, as the Kobe Protro line issues its widest capsule yet, decking the Dunk Low, Air Force 1, and Kobe 5 in “Lower Merion High” coloring.
For adidas, it’s argubaly just as seminal of a week: the Thug Club adidas capsule whets palettes before a stacked end of the week; Whitaker Group, Bad Bunny, and Cincinnati’s Unheardof all have Three Stripes material coming on Saturday. Between those two titans, there’s still plenty to watch; Converse further plays out the First String, PUMA has two pairs set for LaMelo Ball, and New Balance continues its Made in USA and 1890 journeys.
The typical day-to-day breakdowns with hyperlinks back to original coverage can be found just ahead, but we’ve split March 26th into Air Max Day and non-Nike releases. Keep an eye on our Sneaker Release Dates and Jordan Release Dates to ensure nothing slips through the cracks, even as we update this page with any notable late-comers to the slate.






March 23rd begins with an across-the-board embrace of the Mamba’s high school days: the Kobe 5 “Lower Merion Aces,” Air Force 1 “Lower Merion Aces” and Dunk Low “Lower Merion Aces” (Home/Away) hit shelves. Then it’s to the World Cup, as icons of the US and UK drop off patriotic fare in the Air Max 95 “England” and Air Force 1 Low “Team USA”. Of course, the big drop to stay focused on is the VAA Air Jordan 1 (raffles are open now).


March 24th clears out for the King: the Nike LeBron 23 “Masked Menace” revisits his carbon-fiber-coated performance in Miami. The Converse First String capsule brings three more premium looks to the classic silo.

March 25th has a suddenly sturdy Three Stripes partnership in tow: the Thug Club adidas capsule hits two sneakers and a mule.







March 26th / Air Max Day fittingly focuses on the visible Air family. The Nike Liquid Max is the new face in the bunch, while the Zellerfeld Nike Air Max 1000 in “Black/Volt” revisits a future-forward pair from 2025. Then, some of the old mainstays get in on the action: a restock of the Air Max 95 “Pink Foam,” GOAT/Division St.’s yearly edition with the Oregon Air Max 95 “Woods,” the newly Big-Bubbled Air Max 95 “Greedy” returns, the Air Max 95 “Bandana” puts a Southern spin on “Neon,” and the Air Max 90 “Infrared 3M” for a flashy spin on an old classic.


Away from Beaverton, the Boston brand issues the New Balance 1890 in black/yellow and a fresh drop in the seasonal Made in USA collection with the New Balance 992 “Team Royal.”



March 27th has a notable stop in the aughts, as the Air Foamposite “University Blue” finally sees its retro take off. PUMA has two for LaMelo Ball: the MB.05 “Melo World” and the MB.05 “Camo,” while Reebok celebrates Bayou Barbie with the Angel Reese 1 “Unapologetically Angel.”





March 28th sees the Three Stripes steal the weekend: the adidas BadBo 1.0 “Rise,” second installment in the adidas Piggy Runner story, and the first capsule out of Whitaker Group adidas make for a stacked set under the German giant. Beaverton fires back with the Jordan 3 “Spring Is In The Air” and more creative heat for the kids with the LEGO Air Max 95.
