As for actual sneaker releases of 2021 (ie not retros) - I think the Yeezy 450 was the most interesting to me. It was real subtle on first glance but once you really took a look it was pretty polarizing. I mean, it looks kinda like an OG Air Max Plus 1 - with the ‘flames’, but I like how it’s all a one piece sole.
I’m patiently waiting on seeing colorways like this…I feel like they can do a lot of cool stuff with it and I hope they do…
