2014 continues to be rife with major headlines at every corner, and while the January, February, and March updates kept us on the edges of our seats, April has proved to be one of the most eventful month yet. The official unveiling of significant models like the zapatillas de running trail pie cavo 10k, the revelation of a two-pair Pack with Penny Hardaway’s name, and the confirmation of Nike Retro that sneaker enthusiasts have clamored for is just the hint of what went down over the last thirty days.
While there’s a ton more to give you a heads up on (like the Air Jordan 6 “Brazil” and the Nike KD 6 Elite “EYBL”), we’ve compiled the ten most important sneaker headlines right here. Some reveal a new and upcoming release, while others provide commentary on the state of the sneaker game (the Supreme Foamposite debacle proves that this shoe from ’97 is still a powerful force in the game).
