It's a weekend of celebration as Jordan Brand gets ready for the Chinese New Year with an appropriately themed Air Jordan V Low. The colorful release is countered by a low top version of the the monochrome "Cyber Monday" Jordan 1, and there's also two "BHM" Jordan 1s on the way as part of Nike's annual Black History Month Collection.

Elsewhere on the Swoosh side, Nike serves up an "O.G." colorway of the Air Max Zero based on Tinker Hatfield's original sketch. It's also giving the Air Force 1 Low a premium NikeLab makeover. 

Kith has an adidas Tubular Doom dropping that marks the first release of the adidas Consortium Tour series, and there's also Ultra Boost and EQT collabs from Sneakersnstuff on the way.

It's also a big weekend for ASICS Gel-Lyte V collabs as three sneakers that were originally Japan exclusives will see stateside releases. Rounding out the bunch is Extra Butter's detail-packed take on the Diadora Titan II.
