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.

After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she is now the Associate Director of Fashion News.
