The Nike Air Force 1 Low “Athletic Club” Brings A Varsity Jacket Look In Green And Red

Over the course of its existence, the Nike Air Max 90 has helped bring ubiquity to the swoosh logo. With its latest proposition, Tinker Hatfield’s design continues doing so, though it exchanges Carolyn Davidson’s original design with the jewel swoosh. Hits of grey and black divvy up the...

Once a mythical, seemingly-random collaboration of the 2000s, the Hello Kitty x Nike Air Presto is finally set to release stateside on May 26th. Created by Yuko Shimizu, Hello Kitty (full name Kitty White) covers the entirety of the “t-shirt for your feet”‘s upper, with the character’s enlarged bow landing on the top of the tongue. “University Blue” sets the stage for both Shimizu and Nike’s contributions to the pair, with “colorless” accents landing at the profile, midsole and spine, with the most latter component also donning the titular character’s face. Insoles and shoe boxes also nod to the Sanrio-owned figure.

Almost halfway into its 40th anniversary, the Nike Air Force 1 Low has left much to be desired in terms of high-profile collaborations and special editions. Bruce Kilgore’s iconic silhouette, however, has unveiled more than a dozen compelling general colorways, with the latest joining the Swoosh’s sustainability efforts.

While he may have lost his upcoming partnership with Dior, Travis Scott at least retains his collaborative relationship with Nike, who have given the greenlight for everything from the artist’s Air Max 1 to his newest Air Jordan 1 Low. The Air Trainer 1, too, is preparing for a wider release, with the “Grey Haze” colorway soon to appear on not just Nike SNKRS but also a host of retailers.

Much of the AF1’s 40th Anniversary was spent creating new colorways and collaborations. But here, the Swoosh is looking a bit further into the past, unearthing the Air Force 1 High “Columbia Blue” that released in the early 2000s. For 2022, Nike has lightly aged up the...

Thanks to JJJJound and Teddy Santis, those new to New Balance’s catalog mainly gravitate towards the 990 series as well as the 550. Few — if any — look at the 1500, a silhouette that deserves to stand beside even the brand’s most commercially successful product.

Likely due to issues with production and shipments, Jordan Brand was forced to celebrate a late Easter. So the Air Jordan 5 “Easter” is quite a few weeks delayed, but late is surely better than never. Now much closer to Summer than Spring, the pair pays a colorful,...

Everything Teddy Santis touches seems to turn to “gold.” In addition to helping New Balance with its Made In USA program. the Queens native has apparently been working on the New Balance 650 via his Aimé Leon Dore imprint. Recently, three colorways of the Steven Smith-designed silhouette...

Bruce Kilgore’s Nike Air Force 1 Low has done a lot since debuting in the 1980s (’83 to be exact). As the original design continues to celebrate its 40th anniversary, the low-top trim of the made-for-basketball silhouette has surfaced in a series of refreshing, compelling styles. Recently, the...

Back in 2020, New Balance brought out the 2002R to huge success, teaming up with names like thisisneverthat to help welcome the silhouette back into the fold. Two years later, the footwear brand is reuniting with the Korean streetwear label to do to the 1906 what they did with the OG 2002 from 2010.

Celebrating its 25th Anniversary, Kasina has linked up with Nike once again to deliver the story of an age-old Korean custom through 2022’s darling – the Air Max 1. Inspired by the Won-Ang Ducks, a set of carved wooden ducks gifted to newlywed couples, Kasina has transformed the Air Max 1 in two ways by applying traditional colors and materials that represent good fortune, titling the project “Made To Be Together”.

Although the Air Jordan 1 could simply rely on original colorways in order to be one of the most-coveted sneakers of the moment, the silhouette continues experimenting with tones, builds and more. Recently, the model’s Retro High OG trim – one that closely resembles the later Peter Moore’s 37-year-old blueprint...

Ishod Wair’s Nike SB signature shoe should get some nominations for the title of best new shoe of 2022. Although we’d like to see more special editions, collaborations, and limited issues, the SB Ishod has managed to sell out in an instant — and for good reason.

Since 2015, Brendon Babenzien’s Noah has been championing the surf/skate/nautical aesthetic season after season, bringing forward bold solids and flannel patterns from head to toe. Still going strong today, the label — amidst its Spring/Summer 2022 collection — is ready to launch its next footwear collaboration with Vans Vault, delivering three unmistakable options of the Slip-On.

Paul George may not have the most successful signature sneaker line under the “NIKE, Inc.” banner, but the Los Angeles Clipper continues to impress hoopers everywhere with his Nike PG 6. Akin to past iterations of George’s mainline of swoosh-branded offerings, the newly-surfaced pair isolates the Western-associated print...

Founded in 2009, N7 is one of Nike’s longest-running collections, which supports Native American and indigenous communities, all the while creating product inspired by their rich culture and craft. This year, the Swoosh has once again created no shortage of unique designs; and following the release of the Free Crater Trail Moc, the brand will soon release the style once again, albeit this time in mule form.

In recent years, adidas has taken a keen interest in luxury, teaming up with brands like Prada and soon Gucci. And today, yet another Kering label, Balenciaga, has dropped their own collaborative collection, complete with a co-branded Triple S as well as a host of athletic apparel. While the above-mentioned...

The Jordan Series lifestyle shoe may not be anywhere near becoming Jordan Brand’s most sought-out silhouette, but it continues to appear in new styles. Recently, the model – which makes reference to Michael Jordan’s time playing minor league baseball – appeared in a multi-colored ensemble reminiscent of “What The” outfits that’ve graced Nike SB and Nike Basketball propositions in the past. Suede and canvas materials across the upper indulge in everything from blue and burnt orange hues to gradient finishes and animal prints, delivering one of the more eye-catching color ensembles to grace a Jumpman-branded pair in recent memory. Underfoot, sole units keep things relatively simple, allowing the upper’s disparate arrangement to steal the show.

New iterations of the Air Jordan 13 are few and far between. But this year, Jordan Brand is giving the silhouette some extra attention, as they’ve since released both the “Del Sol” as well as the “Brave Blue.” There are a couple upcomers on the calendar as well, including but not limited to the “French Blue” that’s slated for an August 20th arrival.
