Tom Sachs and Nike‘s “Summer Camp” program concluded over the weekend with eligible participants in the app being granted access to the Mars Yard 3.0 through either a direct purchase or a preorder for 2026. That isn’t the only avenue to purchase, however, as numerous boutiques will also have stock of the sneaker that’s been awaited for more than five years.
The Tom Sachs x Nike Mars Yard 3.0 will release Friday through the following U.S. retailers: A Ma Maniére, The Darkside Initiative, Dover Street Market Los Angeles and New York City, Notre, Shoe Gallery, Sneaker Politics, Undefeated and Union.

It’s also worth noting that Nike is allowing the stores to choose if they want to have requirements for participating on the I.S.R.U. for eligibility.
