The sneaker heat rolls on in the month of August, with more fire kicks on the way.
Here’s your playbook for the top sneakers dropping this month.
Top Sneaker Drop of August 2026: Air Jordan 13 Retro Flint Grey
An OG colorway of the legendary Air Jordan 13, the Flint Greys return on August 1 for a retail price of $215.
The Air Jordan 13 was worn by Michael Jordan during his final season, aka “The Last Dance,” with the Bulls in 1997-98. Like almost all of his seasons in the 1990s, the campaign would end with another Larry O’Brien Trophy, although Jordan famously laced up the Air Jordan 14 to defeat the Jazz and make Byron Russell a part of NBA history.
Designed by the sneaker design GOAT Tinker Hatfield, the shoe paid tribute to MJ’s Black Cat persona. Hatfield said in the book Driven from Within that he had “this flash of consciousness about (Jordan) being a predatory cat.” What Hatfield didn’t know at the time was Jordan’s closest friends had given him the nickname “Black Cat,” leading MJ to ask how Tinker knew about that.
As for the Flint Greys, SNKRS notes that this colorway features “premium leather and textiles with a classic balance of Flint Grey and Navy.” They last dropped in 2020, which currently have an average sales price of $289 on StockX.
