April is often a month of surprises for sneakerheads, and 2025 is no exception. With brands like Nike, adidas, Asics, and New Balance all dropping strong models, this month is packed with releases that both collectors and casual fans are excited about. In this blog, we highlight the five most striking sneaker releases of April 2025 in a row, including details about design, style, and why these models deserve a spot in your rotation.
1. Nike Air Max Plus Golf “The Masters”
Nike celebrates the iconic golf event The Masters with a stylish and unique take on the classic: Air Max Plus Golf. This special edition features a white upper with a striking pink floral print, inspired by the famous azaleas of hole 13 in Augusta. Combine that with a black nylon tongue, bright red mini Swoosh logo, and a golf-specific sole and you have a pair that’s perfect for on and off the green.
The visible Air Max units provide the familiar comfort, while the design brings something completely new. Even if you’re not a golfer, this pair is definitely a standout addition to your spring outfits thanks to its stylish details.
Release date: early April 2025
Why you want this: perfect spring vibe, striking yet wearable design, Air Max heritage with golf innovation.
2. Asics x A.P.C. Gel-Kayano 14
The Gel-Kayano 14 remains consistently popular thanks to the retro runner trend, and Asics cleverly taps into this with a new collaboration with the Parisian minimalist brand A.P.C.. The collaboration results in two clean colorways: white and navy blue, both finished with reflective metallic details and a vintage gum sole.
What makes this release unique is the balance between sporty performance and fashionable simplicity. A.P.C. brings subtle branding and clean lines, while Asics provides proven cushioning and stability. An ideal daily sneaker that works just as well with sweatpants as with cropped trousers.

The adidas Taekwondo sneaker makes a comeback in April and focuses on the trend of sleek silhouettes and archive-inspired designs. With color schemes such as black with white stripes, white with black, and even metallic silver, this shoe fits perfectly within the contemporary minimalist sportswear trend.
The sneaker is lightweight, streamlined, and has a slip-on design reminiscent of taekwondo footwear from the archives. This combination of heritage and contemporary style makes it popular among both fashion enthusiasts and functional wearers.
