Ballerific Footwear: June Promises Fire Sneaker Drops To Match This Summer Heat

This year has seen several notable sneaker releases and the month of June is set to be another iconic time for shoe drops. 

Nike will lead the charge next month with its latest iteration of the Air Max series, with the re-release of the Nike Air DT Max ’96, which was made popular by Deion Sanders. This highly anticipated throwback offers style and nostalgia. Nike will also unveil its Producer Series Nike KD 17 Collection, which pays homage to several music makers Kevin Durant enjoys. The sleek basketball shoe will be available in three different colorways: gray and purple, which signifies Metro Boomin; a white and purple design for the Alchemist; and a tan, orange, and army green sneaker dedicated to producer Bink! 

As we await June, which will also introduce the official start of Summer, we will also have the latest sneaker aesthetics to look forward to. Let’s take a look at the sneakers we’re most excited about.
