Top Nike Sneakers for 2024: A Buyer's Guide

Top 10 Nike Sneakers for 2024 .

 

 Nike Ishod Wear 2 

 

 

In my opinion, the Nike ishod wear 2 is the top retro style Runner that Nike is offering in 2024. It is one of my absolute favorite new Nike models this year. Although it was just released in January, there aren't many color options available yet. However, they have recently released a few more colorways, although the range is still not very wide. This model stands out for several reasons. Firstly, it is very affordable at $110. Secondly, it has a great design that has refreshed the ishod Weare model. Additionally, the air unit component in these shoes is unique as it is not placed in the midsole like typical Air Max sneakers, but rather in the insole itself, making it removable. These shoes are much more comfortable than standard skate shoes, and it seems that Nike will be expanding on this silhouette with upcoming collaborations. We have recently been teased about a verie one collaboration for this year, which has me really excited. Overall, this model is a fantastic pair of shoes and definitely one of the best Nikes for 2024.

 

 

Nike Pegasus 20

 

If that's the case, I'm certainly excited to try it out. In second place, we have the Nike Pegasus 205. Last October, Nike revealed a lineup of their upcoming sneakers for 2024, and two particular designs caught my attention: the Air Sunder Max and the Nike Pegasus 2005. Alongside the Pegasus 2K5, we can also expect the release of the Pegasus New Wave, which looks absolutely incredible. I will definitely give them a try once they become available. However, for now, the Pegasus 2K5 is an exceptionally stylish pair of sneakers that looks really impressive. Since they have just been released, there aren't many color options to choose from, but that will surely change as we progress through 2024. These sneakers feature a full-length air unit in the midsole, combined with comfortably soft cushioning, making them a truly comfortable choice for everyday wear.

 

 

Nike Invincible Run 3

 

In 2024, the Nike Invincible Run 3 takes the third spot on my list. I've raved about these sneakers countless times, and they have consistently been a favorite since their initial release last year. While I usually don't include shoes from the previous year in my new list, these are just too good to leave out. The comfort level is unmatched, with incredible cushioning that makes you feel like you're walking on air. Yes, they are pricey at $190, but the good news is that they are now more accessible and affordable. You can often snag a pair of the Invincible Run 3 on sale at various retailers, making them an even more attractive choice. Who knows, maybe Nike is gearing up for a fourth version of this model, which could explain the discounts.

 

 

Nike Air Max DM

 

In fourth place, we have the Nike Air Max DM, the latest flagship Air Max model from Nike. While it may not be the groundbreaking innovation that Nike claims it to be, it is still a fantastic sneaker. Don't let all the fancy marketing buzzwords confuse you. It's essentially an Air Max sneaker that you already know and love, but with a sleek and futuristic design. The comfort level is top-notch, although the Dynamic air unit may not be as mind-blowing as advertised. Despite that, I really like this sneaker because of its aesthetics and the cool rubberized dotting on the upper. Nike has released a wide range of colorways for this model, including a collaboration with Supreme, so I believe it will have a successful year in 2024. Now, let's move on to a few honorable mentions. First, we have the Nike P6000, which is a popular and affordable model. However, I personally feel that the quality is not up to par and it feels a bit cheap. Another honorable mention is the Nike Vomero 17, which offers incredible comfort with its combination of Kushon 3.0 and ZoomX cushioning. It's definitely worth considering if you're looking for a super comfortable pair of sneakers. Lastly, we have the Drake Nocta Hot Step 2, which unfortunately comes with a hefty price tag. However, it has a cool and unique silhouette, and I'm sure more colorways will be released in the future.

 

 

 Nike Air Max 1886 

 

 

In the fifth position, we have the Nike Air Max 1886 Sport Royal, which offers both style and comfort. Recently, Nike released a new colorway of the Air Max 186, also known as the "big bubble," paying homage to the original design of the Air Max One. This model features a prominent air unit in the midsole, reminiscent of the classic Air Max sneakers. While the red pair was reintroduced last year, I personally find this blue colorway more appealing. These sneakers are a must-have for Air Max enthusiasts, as they hold a significant place in Nike's history. When worn, they are almost indistinguishable from a regular Air Max One, making them a great addition to your collection. Although many retailers have sold out, with a little effort, you can still find them at select stores.you can definitely find some retailers .

 

 

Nike Journey Run 

 

 

 

The Nike Journey run is a new Nike silhouette launched just a few weeks ago. It is a $90 Nike sneaker with new cushioning known as comfy ride. I wanted to take a look at this sneaker as I wasn’t expecting much from a $90 Nike. Nike isn’t usually known for over delivering, but this sneaker surprises me in so many ways. First off, the quality isn’t bad at all. It’s very comparable to Nike’s other sneakers that cost about double the price. Secondly, it’s very comfortable. The midsole isn’t as soft as I would like it to be, but it’s one of the best sneakers you can buy for this price. I highly recommend this sneaker. I even think it’s a better choice than the Nike Pegasus 40s, which I really like. The Pegasus 40 didn’t do as well as the Pegasus 40 when compared to the Pegasus 40, so I feel like it’s better. alternative to a daily sneaker .

 

 

 

Nike Zoom vomero 5 

 

 

 

 

Releasing for the first time in a while is number seven. This is the king of Nike’s retro Runners and it’s been one of the most hyped sneakers of the last few years. It’s no wonder why Nike brought them back. This sneaker has everything you could want in a sneaker, it’s comfortable, and there are tons of colorways to choose from. I do think it’s a bit steep at $160, I think they could have lowered it a bit, but to be fair it’s solid in quality now. I’m sure we’ll see a lot more from this model in 2024. Overall, this is a great everyday sneaker that’s super versatile.

 

Nike dbook

 

 

 

The Nike dbook one is a solid option for number eight. This $140 pair has both pros and cons. The main downside is that Nike decided to make this sneaker more of a limited-edition sneaker. The first colorway was only limited to 500 pairs, and they continue to release this silhouette on the Nike sneakers app instead of the regular Nike app. Let's start with the pros. It's a very good sneaker. It has a mix of performance basketball sneaker and lifestyle sneaker design. It's not futuristic like Adidas is doing with their basketball sneakers, but it has elements of the Nike Dunk or Air Force One. It's comfortable and well made. It has decent material on the top and a nice padded ankle collar. I think it's a great sneaker for 2024.

 

Nike Phoenix Waffle 

 

 

 

Number 9 is the Nike Phoenix Waffle. This is one of my top $100 sneakers right now. I'm also very impressed that Nike continues to keep the Waffle silhouette but does a great job with a lot of them. I've enjoyed most of the Waffle sneakers they've released in the last 2-3 years. This one is no different. The materials you get for $100 sneakers are solid. Plus, you have tons of different colorways to pick from including upcoming collaborations such as the one we just saw with fragment that might drop this year. I think this shoe has a lot to offer in 2024. It's a comfortable shoe that looks great on your feet.

 

 

Nike Kobe 

 

 

 

 

The Nike Kobes This is not a particular Kobe sneaker, as we are getting so many of them this year, I thought I would just lump them all together. In a recent release, Nike announced that they will be making a major push to reintroduce the Kobes to the market. We have already seen quite a few Kobes drop here in 2024, including a drop on April 13th. There are three iconic pairs of the Kobes that will be returning this year, but throughout the year and into the future, there will be tons of new and old Kobe sneakers that will be making a comeback. The only downside to this is the fact that Nike has hyped up these super limited sneakers as the "Kobe Retros," which I don't think is necessary. Kobe sneakers are in high demand, so this will definitely be the most difficult to obtain sneaker on today's list. However, I have to be honest and say that seeing the return of kobe sneakers especially to people who are such big fans of the sneakers that they are able to actually purchase a pair.
