Here we are, at the end of 2022 looking over the edge at 2023. But we can’t step into the new year without going on our yearly recap of the industry’s favorites, right? Of course, there’s no way to come to a consensus about what are the best sneakers 2022 had to offer. So today, we’re doing our yearly round-up of the year’s top picks in different categories! And of course, we’re giving you our personal favorites just because we can. One thing remains the same, we should always take care of our kicks, especially if we’re flexing them. Now, shall we get down to business?
2023 Update: If you’re here and looking for the best sneakers of 2023, we got you.
This year was wild, and so many sneakers had the potential to be the most popular kicks. However, only one winner can prevail… or three, because we picked the top three! So, here are the three 2022 sneakers that were sold the most in the last 12 months. Disclaimer: the numbers are according to StockX, and it’s only for 2022 sneakers. No, we did not include the Panda Dunks.
2nd Place: Yeezy Foam RNR Onyx – 64,128 sales
3rd Place: Air Jordan 4 Red Thunder – 47,319 sales
Of course, the hype is a huge part of the sneaker industry, specifically the resale side of it. And if you’re looking to make money as a reseller, then the kicks we’re gonna mention, and anything remotely close to them, are your ticket. Naturally, these aren’t the only sneakers you can make money by reselling. There are many ways to get your reselling career started. But if you scored these babies on drop day, you definitely made some good aftermarket profit.
2nd Place: Travis Scott Jordan 1 Low Reverse Mocha – Avg. Resale: $1,196
3rd Place: Travis Scott Air Max 1 Wheat – Avg. Resale: $862
Now here, many could agree or disagree with us. However, each pair we chose here was for a specific reason that we’re gonna share with you! Whether it’s the backstory, the looks, or the versatility, there’s something special about it. So, here is our golden trio of sneakers that we loved in 2022.
2nd Place: New Balance 550 Joe Freshgoods Conversations Amongst Us – Reason: You can’t hate the 550s, it’s a classic! And naturally, Joe Freshgoods is one of our favorite New Balance collaborators. So you can say that it’s a match made in heaven!

Each one of us gravitates toward the sneaker industry for a different reason, and that’s totally fine! We saw trends come and go, with more trends to look out for in 2023. Some partnerships live on while some end, just like Kanye x Adidas and Air Jordan. But the fact remains that we’ll always need sneakers! And just in case you’re on the hunt for new kicks, the Jordan Spring 2023 lineup is out.
