Nike to restock several old classics

Saturday 8th August marks the three year anniversary of the SNKRS EU app and to mark the occasion they will be re-releasing a number of previous shoes that produced bags of hype and sold out within minutes. Since the app was made public, a restock has become an annual event that encourages hundreds of thousands of people to make another attempt at the sneakers they missed out on last time.

While no pairs are 100% confirmed to be released, various sources on social media say that the release will predominantly consist of Nike SB dunks including both OG pairs and some of the most hyped collaboration pairs ever.

This range will include: all three pairs of the SB Dunk X Grateful dead collaboration, the SB Dunk Ben and Jerry's collaboration pair, the SB Dunk X Travis Scott and three pairs of SB Dunk X Off-white. Other re-releases worth noting include: the Jordan 5 Retro Off-White Black, Nike Air Fear Of God 1 Triple Black and the Stussy X Nike Air Zoom Spiridon CG 2 Fossil.

All pairs released on Saturday 8th will be difficult to purchase with the hype they had on the original release and the attention that is always generated around this anniversary. It is currently unclear the how much profit can be made from reselling each pair. It could be a case of the shoes not going for as much because there will now be more pairs of each size available so the exclusivity is reduced. However that works both ways. The shoes could go for the same as they did on their original release or potentially more because they are anniversary pairs which are something that collectors are often drawn to.
