✨ 6-10 ✨ . ⬇️⬇️⬇️ . . 6. 🍦 New Balance 990v3 by Teddy Santis 🍦 - this sneaker alone is actually the reason I got rid of my fy7. I really enjoy the colorblocking and subtle hits of grey. Out of the Teddy 16, this was definitely my favorite V3 to come out this year . 7. 🏃 thisisneverthat x New Balance 1906r 🏃 - I personally feel as if this sneaker is the beginning of a shift to bring back retro runners from all brands. thisisneverthat executed this cw very beautifully and surprisingly I feel that the 1906r is more comfy than the 2002r 🤷 8. ⛱️ Stussy x Nike Air Max 2013 ⛱️ - another sleeper this year 🫣 this Collab, like Hal Studios, wasn't a very sought after design until the majority of people started getting them in hand. Stussy continues that rope like design that they did with the spiridon which I personally love. Regarding comfort, I was pretty shocked once I put them on foot. Tbh, I personally enjoy this over the spiridon they did 🤷 . 9. ☮️ Concepts x Nike Air Max 1 ☮️ - for me, Concepts brought back a lot of nostalgia. The marketing that was done with this set of AM1's created one of the most nostalgic feelings I've had with a sneaker in awhile tbh. Overall just a beautiful execution, from the marketing, launch method, &overall design. . 10. ✨YCMC x New Balance 990v3 ✨ - one of the cleanest and nicest collabs to come out this year. I personally love the fact that given the lighting, the shading of the sneaker changes. One of my favorite collabs from YCMC to date ♥️. If I'm being honest, I personally prefer this over the teddy Sea Salt V3 🫣 . Thank you to everyone who participated in this poll. I hope you enjoyed it 🫶✨♥️
