Yeezy Boost 350 V2 "Carbon Beluga"

No, you're not imagining things. Yeezys really are back, and they're kicking off with the all-new Yeezy Boost 350 V2 "Carbon Beluga." Dropping this week as part of an extremely limited launch, the "Carbon Beluga" is like a stealthy version of the original "Beluga," with a Primeknit upper and Boost midsole that's many shades darker than the OG. With that said, the signature orange stripe that glides across the sidewalls is dipped in the same vibrant shade as the 2016 original. What's there not to love?

Air Jordan 1 Low OG "Black Cement"

If you're a fan of Michael Jordan's low-top flagship, elephant print, and a timeless design, the Air Jordan 1 Low OG "Black Cement" should definitely be on your radar this week. Working on top of a slick black suede base, this AJ1 is overlaid by Air Jordan 3-inspired leather panels, complete with white Swoosh that glides across the sides. The Air midsole has been dipped in a subtle off-white shade for some very vintage vibes, and it's finished off with the legendary winged basketball logo around the heel.

DTLR x New Balance 2002R "Lovers Only"

DTLR is certainly no stranger when it comes to New Balance collaborations, but this week's DTLR x New Balance 2002R "Lovers Only" is one of their best yet. Inspired by the state of Virginia, it's painted in accenting hues that nod to the state flag, as well as the highway lines that run across the region. If you're wondering where the unique colorway name comes from, when you actually drive into Virginia, the "Virginia Is For Lovers" sign welcomes you in. Pretty cute, huh?

Sean Wotherspoon x adidas Gazelle Indoor "Kaleidoscopic Lens"

While Sean Wotherspoon only worked on one sneaker with Nike and one with Asics, his relationship with adidas is stronger than ever, with their latest drop being the Sean Wotherspoon x adidas Gazelle Indoor "Kaleidoscopic Lens." Boasting a corduroy-like upper, this special Gazelle is infused with plenty of sustainable and eco-friendly elements throughout, including a natural rubber midsole, a cork outsole, and laces that are made from recycled paper. So not only will you look good, you'll do some good too.

Air Jordan 1 High OG "Vibrations of Naija"

And last but certainly not least, we have the Air Jordan 1 High OG "Vibrations of Naija." Dropping as part of Jumpman's premium-focused "Craft" collection, it has a cushy leather construction with fuzzy accents that take over the Swoosh and collar. Thick rope laces tie everything together in a soft yellow hue, and this is complemented by the rubber outsole underfoot. What's there not to love?
