Air Jordan XX9 “Blackout”
Dec 5th
In a world where sneaker colorways are constantly trying to one up the last release, the newest addition to the Air Jordan XX9 line takes the opposite approach. The “Blackout” colorway of the XX9 is completely black, save for minimal white accenting for branding’s sake. Camouflaging some elephant print both in the upper and the midsole, the all-black colorway of the XX9 will release this Saturday.
The Air Jordan XX9 “Blackout” drops on Saturday, December 6, at Foot Locker, House of Hoops by Foot Locker, and Footlocker.com (starting at 8:00 a.m. EST) for $ 225. Check out the Launch Locator to find out if a Foot Locker location near you will be carrying this release.
adidas Crazy 1 Blackout
Nov 23rd
The Kobe Bryant retro line reveals the adidas Crazy 1 Blackout, which suggests the monochromatic “all black everything” nature of the sneaker. It has been well over a decade since Kobe laced up in anything similar to the adidas Crazy 1, but at the time, they were known as one of the most futuristic-looking kicks on the market. Bringing these back now with updated details makes for interesting outfit combinations like rocking them with matching denim or jogger pants.
Available in stores and online.
Nike Air Trainer SC Sneakerboot Blackout
Nov 10th
The Nike Air Trainer SC receives the Sneakerboot treatment, which feels like a natural adaptation for the sneaker. Already a high-top shoe, this rethought version is perfect for the harsher climates in the upcoming colder months. Draped in a black-on-black colorway dubbed “Blackout”, the sneaker is also outfitted with workboot-style lace rings and a chunkier outsole.

Nike Flystepper 2K3 Blackout
Nov 6th
The Nike Flystepper 2K3 Blackout takes an already futuristic-feeling silhouette and advances that feeling even more. Given the all-black treatment with a glowing green outsole, upon first glance it’s already an intriguing sneaker. Upon further inspection, the various textures on the toe, tongue, straps and side paneling continue to score points for its level of freshness. Top to bottom, it’s a well-considered sneaker for you to wear all year-round.
