4 HOT NEW SNEAKERS YOU NEED TO BUY THIS SPRING

SNEAKER 1

The Sneaker: Air Diamond Turf Why You Need It: Remember this Nike Air from the 1990s that was made popular by a ton of different football legends? Well, guess what? It's baaaaaaack! And it's better than ever. Thanks to its Phylon midsole and Air-Sole unit, you'll get just the right amount of cushioning from this sneaker. Plus, the leather and synthetic upper features a VELCRO fastener to keep everything in place. So while it's definitely "back," this sneaker will feel like it never left the second you put it on.

SNEAKER 2

The Sneaker: Air Max Darwin 360 Why You Need It: Do these look familiar? They should. Dennis Rodman used to patrol the paint rocking these classic sneaks. And now you can, too. Complete with an upper that pays homage to the OG Darwin and Nike's 360 Max Air Unit, this sneaker is all you'll need to hit the hardwood—or the blacktop—this spring.

SNEAKER 3

The Sneaker: Air Max Griffey Fury Why You Need It: Reeeeeeemix! We see what you did here, Nike. You took the iconic look of the Air Max Griffey and paired it with the general look and feel of the Air Diamond Fury to create a sneaker that features a lightweight mesh upper, a 360 Max Air unit, and a rubber outsole that's designed for function and style. And, you know what? We love it. This Nike "remix" is hot.

SNEAKER 4

The Sneaker: Air Max NM Why You Need It: These NMs—which were originally created for one of the most famous pitchers in baseball history (Google it!)—are made with a nubuck and mesh upper and feature a full-length Air unit for maximum cushioning and support. And they also feature some of the brightest colors we've ever seen on a sneaker. These will have you shining all spring.
