We begin Week 38's Most Wanted Sneaker Releases with a standout release. On 16 September 2022, the Carhartt WIP x New Balance M990 was released. The sneaker has a retro look and combines the DNA of outdoor clothing brand Carhartt WIP with the classic M990 silhouette.

This is the first collaboration between Carhartt WIP and New Balance. The sneaker came with matching apparel. This collection consisted of apparel items that all shared the same color palette. The Carhartt WIP x New Balance M990 combines the colors grey and navy blue. The mesh upper makes it a sporty sneaker.

Suede overlays are placed all over the design. The familiar N logo also appears on the centre panel. On the tongue and heel, both names' brandings appear.

Nike already released several colorways of the Air Jordan 3 in 2022, including the 'Dark Iris', which released on 16 September 2022. The sneaker colors white and has purple details all over the design. The famous 'elephant' print also appears on the toe cap and heel. This motif is characteristic of the Air Jordan 3.

The Air Jordan 3 is the first model from the Jordan line where the Air Unit is visible at the heel. Designed by Tinker Hatfield, the sneaker was a particularly popular silhouette on the basketball court. Now, anno 2022, the sneaker is also a classic off-court and the model has already received a lot of variants in 2022.

The upper is made of leather. On the tongue, the well-known Jumpman logo appears. On the heel, we see Nike Air set in purple. The collar and the element on the midsole color purple.

Perhaps the most striking sneaker from Week 38's Most Wanted Sneaker Releases, is the J Balvin x Air Jordan 2. J Balvin and Nike are no strangers to each other and are known for their eye-catching colorways. This sky-blue Air Jordan 2 is no exception.

The sneaker colors light blue and has a cloud print on the heel. The light blue outsole matches the upper nicely. The orange stitching all over the design gives the sneaker an eye-catching twist. The Air Jordan logo appears on the tongue. A striking detail is the fact that this logo glows in the dark. Also on the heel are glow-in-the-dark lights in the shape of a smiley face.

4. Nike Dunk Low Next Nature WMNS 'Light Curry' l DN1431-001

The Nike Dunk Low Next Nature WMNS 'Light Curry' features an autumnal colorway. The sneaker released on 16 September 2022 and came exclusively in women's sizes. The Dunk Low is wildly popular these days and has received a lot of unique colorways in 2022 alone. These include the 'Light Curry'.

The upper is made of leather and colors white with orange overlays placed all over the design. The outsole matches the overlays nicely, as does the Swoosh on the centre panel. Nike branding is stitched on the tongue and heel. The sneaker is part of Nike's Next Nature line. This line focuses on durability.

Nike Air Max 1 'Crepe Hemp' - 2022

We conclude our Most Wanted Sneaker Releases of week 38 with a classic colorway. The Nike Air Max 1 'Crepe Hemp' - 2022 takes its inspiration from the 2004 'Crepe Hemp' colorway. This sneaker has a jute upper, which gave the pair a unique look. The 2022 variant of the 'Crepe Hemp' did not get a jute upper, but it does have several details that hint at its predecessor.

The upper is linen and has an off-white color. The dark brown suede mudguard contrasts nicely with the upper. Light brown overlays are placed on the centre panel and the Swoosh, as with its predecessor, colors turquoise. On the tongue and heel, the turquoise Nike branding is visible.

The Nike Air Max 1 'Crepe Hemp' - 2022 retains its crepe outsole. The Air Unit appears at the heel in the midsole and colors turquoise here.
