Whether you love it or hate it, there’s something undeniably captivating about the passionate holiday with its rich Sachs, luxurious textures, and feverish color palette. Over the years, sneakers have become a staple for the holiday as the sneaker industry delivers an abundance of Valentine’s Day sneakers each year.

It all started with a Boots JADON 15265100 95 that released in 2001. While this sneaker wasn’t an official Valentine’s Day MRUGA, this AM95 did carve the path for sweetheart-inspired colorways with its monochrome red upper and Air Max heart icon on the tongue.
