It says something when your sneaker brand is at or near the top of the sales list. For this year, the best selling sneaker brands of 2024 are in the throwback category. Here are five of the top selections that made the list.
Air Jordan 4 “Bred Reimagined”
The original
“Bred” version of the Air Jordan 4 was already a sensation. For this year, the reimagined version exploded onto the scene. While the 1989 version seemed perfect, this year the reimagined version used the familiar black and red color schemes combined with simple lines and leather instead of the nubuck upper that has created what must be a timeless classic yet again.
The bottom line is that the
“Bred Reimagined” version of the Air Jordan 4 is simply one of the best looking sneakers on the market today.
ASICS 1130 White/Silver
The mesh look is back and here to stay. What once was a shoe in the backwater of the brand has now leaped to the front thanks to its remarkable popularity. Back in 2008 when it came out, it was marketed for its comfort value. And while it became popular, it was not considered a cool shoe to wear.
That all changed this year when suddenly the old was new again. This
ASICS 1130 with the classic white/silver look is all the rage.
Adidas AE 1 “All Star”
There is no mistaking this sneaker as being anything other than a classic. It helps that this
Adidas “All Star” version was used for two of the players who competed in the annual NBA dunking contest which only added to the hype.
The AE 1 has that classic look and yet it looks like no other sneaker. What looks like a mesh grill on the insides augments the silky color scheme and makes this one a sneaker that will no doubt be at or near the top next year.
New Balance 1000 Black/Silver Edition
If this sneaker looks like the classic Air Max 97, you would not be mistaken. The 1000 was the first running shoe of
New Balance. This version was launched with the collaborative efforts of Joe Freshgoods with the result being a remarkably bold sneaker design. The use of black and silver colors really make it stand out, apart from the New Balance “N” logo.
Nike Kobe 8 “Venice Beach”
The vibrant color scheme and patterns on the
Nike Kobe 8 effectively disguise the rather simple lines and straightforward appearance of the sneaker itself. The splotchy paint scheme certainly looks like it comes from Venice Beach. Bold and original color choices really make this sneaker stand out.
It also helps that the late Kobe Bryant’s name is attached to this sneaker, which makes it a perfect choice for those who want to celebrate the life of the athlete while running around town in these remarkable sneakers.
It’s little wonder that these brands made the best selling sneaker brands of 2024 list. Given their history, style, quality, and appearance, it’s sure that these brands will make next year’s list as well.
