Sunday Drip Report: Brazil Wears Jumpman, Kobe Holds Number One

# Sunday Drip Report — 10 May 2026

## The headline

Three products land in **ON_FIRE** today, and not one of them is a sneaker. Nike Kobe 11 Elite Protro holds the **#1 spot at 94.8** by sheer cultural inertia, but the products climbing toward it are kits and collabs. Wales Bonner x Adidas SL72 sits at 91.5. AC Milan 2025-26 Home Kit pushes into the top three at 90.1 with a **+12.97** daily move that is the biggest legitimate gain on the board.

## Movers

**AC Milan (+12.97 to 90.07 ON_FIRE)** continues the late-spring surge that has tracked Champions League progression. Bayern Munich is right behind it, climbing **+12.55 to 80.95 SURGING** as the Bundesliga title chase narrows. Adidas x Gucci Bucket Hat keeps grinding, **+6.11 to 85.11 SURGING**, helped by a steady Reddit conversation that refuses to die.

On the cooling side, Salomon XT-6 Arthur Kar fell the maximum **-12 to 78.3**, suggesting the editorial wave of late April has crested. Real Madrid 2025-26 Home Kit, Mexico 2026 World Cup Home Kit, and Pharrell x Adidas Humanrace Samba all hit the same downward cap as the market reprices last week's overheating.

## New entries

Three additions to the index today, all with editorial backing.

**Brazil 2026 x Jordan Brand Change Kit** enters at **81.2 SURGING** — the first time the Jumpman has ever appeared on a national football kit, and the resulting Royal Blue elephant-print shirt is the biggest cross-category cultural moment of the World Cup cycle.

**KNWLS x Nike Air Max Muse Synergy** debuts at **76.5 SURGING**. The pointed-toe ballet-meets-Air-Max hybrid was teased at Milan Fashion Week and is reading as the divisive sneaker of SS26.

**Salomon X-Alp Woven** opens at **68.4 RISING**. The XT-6 made Salomon famous; the X-Alp Woven is what comes next — woven upper, muted tones, more Margiela than Mont Blanc.

## What we're watching

The category mix at the top is finally rebalancing. Kit Culture has 5 products in the top 30. Sportswear has 4. Accessories and Retro both put a name in. The leaderboard is no longer a sneakers-only affair, and that's how the index should look.

We continue to think the index is honest about momentum and resistant to nostalgia. Most of the hottest sneakers from a year ago are now sitting in COOLING or STEADY, exactly where they should be. New cultural moments are getting room to climb, and the JUMP CAP is doing its job preventing whiplash.

## The numbers

- 539 active products tracked - 3 ON_FIRE (Kobe 11 Elite, Wales Bonner SL72, AC Milan kit) - 33 SURGING - 91 RISING - 280 STEADY - 119 COOLING - 13 SLEPT_ON
