At long last, Spring is finally springing.
That air of revival certainly extends into this week’s set, with returns, new colorways, and anniversaries abound. That applies to the duo in our headline, as the Jordan 5 “White Metallic” seeks to keep up a hot streak for archival AJ5s, and the Vans “Pearlized” Old Skool 36 tests its Midas Touch with an earthy brown edition. Further down the slate, Kobe and Pau Gasol’s relationship is at the fore for the “Siempre Hermanos” pack, tying together the AF1 Protro and the Kobe 8 EXT, the WNBA 30th Anniversary influences new pairs for the Dunk, AF1, and Sabrina 3, and the Nike SB Air Force 1 finally goes wide via SNKRS.
While you can get a ten-thousand-foot view of what’s on the docket with the above preview, to see every pair queued up for the next seven days, you’ll need to view the complete list below. Attached to each day-by-day gallery are hyperlinks leading back to our original coverage of each shoe/collection — there you’ll find our analysis and direct “Where To Buy” links for release day. We’ll keep this page up to date with any late-breaking additions, but to ensure nothing falls through the cracks, keep our Jordan Release Dates and Sneaker Release Dates pages bookmarked.
April 19th keeps the seasonal atmosphere high as the Air Force 1 Low “Roses” adds a not-quite-retro colorway to the Uptown.
April 20th is the official release date for the UNDEFEATED Converse Dodgers, but the raffle is open now — get your entries in before the launch closes.
April 21st sees the Vans hot streak march on with the Old Skool “Pearlized” Brown, before the Air Force 1 SB Light Orewood Brown goes wide following a skate shop release and a few early drops.
April 23rd is the real quantity-heavy day. The Nike Kobe Air Force 1 “Steam” adds another clean entry into what’s becoming a deep roster of hoops x lifestyle crossovers. The Air Jordan 4 “Iced Carmine” then adds a pink denim pair for the ladies. The Homecoming Air Max Plus, revealed far in advance, pours out a heavily modified ode to the Nigerian cultural mainstay. Finally, three new hoops options from the Swoosh: the Nike LeBron 23 “Motor King”, the Jordan Tatum 4 “Smooth Soul”, and the Jordan Luka 5 “Turquoise”.
April 24th dips into Bryant’s personal life, building the Nike Kobe Siempre Hermanos capsule (comprised of a Kobe 8 and an Air Force 1 Protro) around a literal horse owned by he and Pau Gasol. The New Balance 1890 Silver Pink tacks a delicate colorway onto NB’s newest tech runner. Then it’s to two rangey collections, first with Nike’s WNBA 30th Anniversary set: the Dunk Low WNBA, Air Force 1 Low WNBA, Sabrina 3 WNBA share throwback coloring in an all-hands-on-deck celebration. We close on the adidas SPZL Spring 2026, showcasing Gary Aspden’s strength in stewarding adi history once again.
April 25th revisits the Air Jordan 5 “White Metallic” to keep up another strong year for the silhouette.
