The 9 Sneaker Drops You Need To Know This Week
The week of Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday has become one of the best times of the year for sneakerheads. Not only have some of the best Black Friday releases of all time dropped during this traditional shopping week, but as a sneakerhead, you don't have to fight through through violent shoppers looking to save ten bucks on a TV in order to find deals and steals. That makes it an even better time to be a sneakerhead. Check out some of this year's must-have sneaker releases and restocks below.
A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 1
Arguably the best AJ1 release of the year, the A Ma Maniére sticks with their go-to combination of nostalgia and luxury for this release that drops November 24th on amamaniere.com.

Ronnie Fieg x Asics GEL-LYTE V "Salmon Toe" and "Leatherback"
Ronnie Fieg's and his KITH label are the main reason that sneakerheads were introduced to ASICS retros thanks to shoes like the "Salmon Toe" and "Leatherback" GEL-LYTE III that released back in 2007 and 2011, respectively. Those pairs were super limited and now go for hundreds or even thousands of dollars but Ronnie is bringing the colorways back on the GEL-LYTE V this Friday on the KITH website.
Air Jordan 11 "Animal Instinct"
Jordan Brand has a wild new AJ11 landing on the SNKRS app this week called the "Animal Instinct" colorway. With an upper that combines a handful of furs, these are nothing short of head-turning. You can grab them Friday on the SNKRS app.
