Half of the sneaker game is knowing what kicks are out when, and which shops have them. Our Shelf Space column looks at what shops around the country are stocking in a given week, and gives a quick glimpse into the mind of the buyer/manager/owner who put them there.

As we continue our mission of bringing you the insides of the best sneaker spots from around the U.S., we headed to one of our favorites — Wish, located in Atlanta, Georgia. The store's manager, Kim Hall, gave us a look at 10 of the newest sneakers currently sitting on the store shelves. Hit the thumbnails and arrows above to see her picks, and to read what she has to say about each one.

Jeremy Scott x adidas Originals by Originals Polka Dot Boot, $195

Wish says: "Jeremy Scott always seems to find a way to put playful patterns and colors together to add life to a sometimes boring piece. If you feel like this piece is giving you the Ronald McDonald feel, throw some black in it for an understated look."

Air Jordan III Retro Black/Cement, $160

Wish says: "One of my favorite Jordans ever made! Super swaggy! A little sad to see them re-retroed, but always a classic."

Android Homme Propulsion Hi Woven Black Leather, $280

Wish says: "A high-end look with a more affordable price point. No brainer."

Converse First String Straight Shooter Spec Hi Burgundy, $80

Wish says: "A classic shoe with an edgy twist. I also really like the burgundy, such a great fall/winter color!"

Converse x Comme des Garcons Jack Purcell Low, $132

Wish says: "All they did was throw a black heart on a Jack Purcell, however, they captured mine! These are great fresh out of the box or even a little trashed."

Converse First String x Missoni Chuck Taylor, $200

Wish says: "Missoni patterns are always so intricate and well done. Plus, the blue leather gives this shoe such a great pop. Well done."

Nike Air Max 97 Vach Tech, $155

Wish says: "These sleek shoes remind me of a sexy black car that should be driven fast. Very fast!"

Nike Zoom Meriwether Deep Burgundy, $150

Wish says: "Rain, sleet, or snow — you've still gotta swag! These shoes will make sure you do just that. And, you can't tell me these colors don't look great together? Can you!?"

Nike Zoom Rookie LWP Binary Blue, $200

Wish says: "Plain and simple: these are for ballin' — on and off the court."

Reebok x Basquiat Pump Omni Lite, $150

Wish says: "Basquiat referred to his childhood in his paintings a lot. It's nice to see him celebrated on a childhood favorite of mine, the classic Pump."
