Our Favourite Sneakers Celebrating their 20th Anniversary in 2023

We celebrate the 20th anniversary of some of the most soughtafter sneakers in history

Forming as part of the eminent City Pack Nike unveiled one of its rarest dunks to date The Nike SB Dunk Paris. This coveted gem included the lively of French artist Bernard Buffet and was limited to 202 pairs.

2. Nike Ultraflight White Midnight Navy

In 2003, inspired by Hyperflight's success, Aaron Cooper and Eric Avar introduced the Nike Zoom Ultraflight. This groundbreaking basketball shoe combined premium leather with a transparent shell, revealing its inner workings, a concept born during a visit to a New York City sporting goods store. It became a significant achievement in Nike Basketball history.


3. Nike Air Force 1 High x Stash

Limited to 1,000 pairs, the Stash x Nike Air Force 1 High was distributed across three cities: New York City, London, and Tokyo, with NYC and London receiving 250 pairs each and Tokyo having 500.

Notably, each city's release featured distinct characteristics, including unique coloured suitcase boxes and matching outsole graphics visible through the translucent sole. Adding to its intrigue, a limited run of 231 pairs was rereleased in late 2007 as part of the Nike Air Force 1 25th Anniversary celebration.

4. adidas TMac 2 AllStar Red

German powerhouse adidas also rolled out the iconic TMAC 2 in 2003. Featuring a more streamlined design than its predecessor, the lowtop shoe quickly became a fan (and player) favorite. In fact, it is considered by some to be the best member of the adidas TMAC series. The shoe featured a Torsion System for stability and an adiPrene+ forefoot that provided maximum control.

5. Nike SB Dunk Low Heineken

The Heineken SB, inspired by the Dutch beer brand, became an underground sensation, despite its unofficial status within the Nike SB lineup. Legal altercations between Nike SB and Heineken forced an abrupt halt in production, preventing the wider release of this Dunk that became a fan favourite in 2003.

This eyecatching design boasts vivid green suede panels against a crisp white leather upper, accentuated by a striking black Swoosh. Hints of vibrant red can be spotted on the laces and heel tab, while a bold red star graces the lateral heel, adding an unmistakable touch.
