6 Nike Sneaker Launches to Get Excited About in October
As much as we love reaching for our old reliable sneakers—like Adidas Stan Smiths and Converse All-Stars—we get a little giddy every time a major brand releases new styles. So when we discovered Nike's calendar of sneaker launches for October, we couldn't help but share it.
The lineup includes 10 different styles that run the gamut from high-tops to gym-ready versions—with a plush, soft-to-the-touch pair thrown in for good measure. Looking for some tips on how to style them? You could go the Gigi Hadid route and wear them with high-waisted leggings and a cropped sweatshirt, or you could follow Selena Gomez's lead and pair them with an oversize sweatshirt and coat for fall. However you choose to style them, one thing's for sure: Any of these Nike kicks will instantly freshen up your sneaker collection.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
