Now that it’s summer, there isn’t a better time of the year to be seen in a fresh pair of sneakers while you’re outside in the world. The kinds of shoes we’re talking about could be that “grail” pair you saved up three paychecks to buy. Or they could just as easily be sneakers you caught for under retail pricing at Stadium Goods.
Seriously, in many instances, a shoe that you bought for the low-low could be just as rewarding to wear as some insanely rare—and insanely expensive—sneaker you jumped through a million hoops to acquire. That’s because a shoe that’s versatile, durable, and just plain good-looking is a shoe that you’ll most likely reach for again and again throughout the summer.
Don’t believe us? No problem. We rounded up a few of our favorite low-key yet endlessly versatile and wearable sneakers that are available in our inventory right now at under-retail prices.
Air Jordan 1 High OG “Skyline”
If there were ever an Air Jordan 1 for summer, it would be the “Skyline” colorway. Inspiration for the design with a warm weather vibe comes from the purple and orange hues of the skyline photo of Michael Jordan wearing the original Jordan 1 in 1985.
Shelflife’s collaboration with Jordan Brand on the Air Jordan 2 Low is definitely one of the silhouette’s most clean and versatile colorways yet. It’s also one of the best sneakers priced under retail at Stadium Goods.
The New Balance 550 is still popular years after the likes of Aimé Leon Dore and Joe Freshgoods helped bring the shoe back from the depths of obscurity. In other words, you can cop the shoe and rest easy knowing that you can wear it now, tomorrow, next month, and next year without looking like you hopped on the hype wave too late.
DJ Khaled x Air Jordan 5 “Crimson Bliss”
There are hyped sneakers. And then there’s DJ Khaled’s collaborations with Jordan Brand. In 2022, the Miami based producer previewed a collection of Air Jordan 5s in pastel colors on his Instagram, and the sneaker world promptly lost its collective minds over the possibility of owning each colorway. Luckily, one of the styles from the collection, the Jordan 5 “Crimson Bliss,” is available at Stadium Goods—and priced under retail, too.
New Balance’s “Made in USA” collection is among the most popular collections in sneakers in 2023. That should be a good enough reason to consider adding any of the premium New Balance “Made in USA” shoes to your closet this summer, like this “Red/Black” New Balance 990v3.
The Air Jordan 2 came back in a big way in late 2021 and throughout 2022. A big reason why the shoe regained its popularity is because of great collaborations, like Union LA’s “Rattan” colorway from April 2022 that updates the legacy basketball shoe with a lifestyle-focused edge.
Air Jordan 1 High OG “White Cement”
Amazingly, the Air Jordan 3’s iconic elephant print had never appeared on the Air Jordan 1 until the “White Cement” colorway debuted earlier this year. The underrated sneaker is available for under retail pricing right now at Stadium Goods.
New Balance 2002R “Steel Lead Orca”
The New Balance 2002R failed to generate much interest as a performance running shoe when it debuted in 2010. But everything it wasn’t as a running shoe is what makes it so great as a lifestyle shoe in the present day, especially as the Y2K trend rages on this summer. We’re talking about classic retro-yet-modern styling, comfortability, and well, more comfortability.
adidas Samba Classic “White/Black”
Great summer style is about looking casual yet put together at the same time. Few sneakers are more classic yet refined as the adidas Samba, and that goes for all of its various iterations like the Samba Classic that features a raised tongue for an extra dose of vintage flair.
If you remember the Nike SB Dunk High “Skunk,” then you’ll have no problem identifying the inspiration for the Nike Air Max 1 “Treeline.” The latter has the same color scheme and some of the same materials as the features found on the legendary SB Dunk from back in the day.
