The Best Sneakers Releasing in November
All products and services featured are independently chosen by editors. However, Footwear News may receive a commission on orders placed through its retail links, and the retailer may receive certain auditable data for accounting purposes.
At the beginning of every month, we take a look at the best sneakers slated for release. November already looks particularly flush, no doubt bolstered by the holidays being just around the corner. Whether you’re shopping for yourself and/or others, all the major sneaker brands are putting a tempting pair or three on the calendar.
November will see the bulk of Jordan Brand’s holiday lineup, as well as the second drop since Rihanna reenlisted with Puma and perhaps one of the best Adidas Sambas of the year. Add in releases from Nike proper, New Balance, Vans, and more, and you’ve got a lot of reasons to part with your money — even before whatever surprise releases might surface.
Keep in mind that much of this information comes by way of leaks, which means details could be subject to change. We’ll keep the list updated throughout the month to update you on all the best sneakers releasing in November.
