Matt Varga We’re coming hot off a fiery crop of drops, and though the overall number may be lower, this week serves up another potentially expensive upcoming set.
As usual, the shoes listed in our title are the headliners in the Union Air Jordan 1 and the Nike SB Air Jordan 4. However, what makes this week particularly notable is the fact that both those pairs come on the same day, March 18th. It’s a second chance at the LA retailer’s edition and a first for the skateboarding one, but either one deserves full attention. Further down the list, .SWOOSH’s playful Donkey Kong-inspired Air Max 1 sees the light of day, as does the Air Jordan 1 Low “Obsidian.” Rounding out Beaverton’s entrants, Bode’s Astrograbber and the Air Force 1 “Linen Linen” each serve up reimagined takes on historic Nike fare. For the other brands, the Fortnite adidas and New Balance 1906 loafer in black leather are the true show-stealers, but there’s a full serving of more low-key editions to get your hands on over the next several days.
Catch the complete list of all the releases of note this week via the images below. Every day’s gallery is accompanied by a brief blurb underneath, containing hyperlinks leading back to original coverage of all the pairs included. There, you’ll find direct “Where To Buy” links and buyer’s guide, as well as our original breakdown of each release. We’ll keep this page updated with any late breaking additions to the field, but if you’d like to ensure you don’t miss anything, keep our Sneaker Release Dates and Jordan Release Dates 2025 pages close by.
We kick things off with the Nike Mercurial Vapor Pro 16 “Neon,” the primary release of note on March 17th. The on-pitch model harkens to the iconic Air Max 95 colorway, merging performance wear and lifestyle in a cleated do-up.
Truly, name a more heavy-hitting duo. The Nike SB Jordan 4 touches down at skate shops and the Union Jordan 1 greets SNKRS on March 18th, a dual debut for some of the hottest collab pairs of 2025 so far. For those who prefer something more refined, the adidas Gazelle Made In Italy has you covered.
March 19th is another one-drop day, but it’s a notable single. The New Balance 1906L “Black Leather” makes its debut, a dressy material overhaul for a silhouette that’s marked sellouts in every one of its releases so far.
March 20th begins with the Nike Air Force 1 “Linen Linen,” issuing the second release for the “Cult Classic” in the past year and its first-ever with the titular materials. Sticking with the Swoosh, Beaverton also issues the mashup Waffle Racer “Hyper Blue” after a brief stop-and-start, and the Pegasus Premium “Volt,” linking back to the high-vis history of Nike Running. Then to the New Balance “Saturated Suede” Pack, delivering two 550 looks and a 9060, all exclusive to Champs/Foot Locker. The day’s drops close with a rare inclusion, the Post Archive Fashion ON Cloud Monster 2 collection propelling the running brand into the mix.
Already a fan-favorite, the Nike Air Max 1 “Big Head Origins” heads up the festivities on March 21st, .SWOOSH’s latest in their gaming-centric “Low Poly” releases. However, don’t sleep on the next step in the Bode Astro Grabber story. A wide release for the all-black leather pair is scheduled on this date via SNKRS.
As always, Saturday is the busiest day of the week when it comes to new footwear — March 22nd very much keeps that trend alive. The Jumpman’s weekly edition is the Jordan 1 Low “Obsidian,” flipping a modern classic into a low-cut. Then, the Fortnite adidas collection issues four colorways of the Ultra Boost, each proudly stamped with in-game imagery. Another collab crashes onto the international scene with the Titan Sabrina 2, the Phillipines-based retailer’s latest step into hoops. Finally, the ANTA KAI 1 Speed “Multicolor” closes us out, nearing a “What The” colorway on Irving’s performance model.
