Do People Care About Sneakers In 2026?

Описание: In this first episode of the year, I’m easing back in after the break and diving straight into the current state of sneaker culture: hype, innovation, retros, resell fatigue, and trying to figure out what’s actually worth buying anymore. From the controversial Nike “Mind” shoes to Jordan retros, Air Max 95s, SB Dunks, and everything in between, this episode is all about making sense of where sneakers are headed this year — especially here in Australia.

This video kicks off with my first sneaker shopping trip of 2026, checking out what’s (and isn’t) hitting stores, reacting to online hype vs real-life pairs, and breaking down upcoming releases you should actually be paying attention to. I talk honestly about missed drops, delayed Australian releases, and why more people are slowing down before copping — including myself.

We also get into 2026 sneaker trends, including:
• Nike innovation vs gimmicks
• Jordan 3s, 4s, 11s & upcoming OG retros
• Air Max 95 SBs, Cacao colourways & Air Max Month
• SB Dunk releases to watch
• Resale culture shifting away from sneakers
• Events, pop-ups & sneaker culture in Australia
• Why retros still matter (and some shoes just don’t)

If you’re into sneaker news 2026, upcoming sneaker releases, Australian sneaker culture, Nike vs Jordan debates, or just love honest sneaker talk, this one’s for you.
