The strangest shoe in the Stranger Things x Puma collection is the LaFrance RNR, and that is saying something when the pack also includes a vine-covered LaFrance and a plum MB.06. The RNR takes Melo chunky retro-runner experiment and drowns it in Upside Down textures, and the result looks like a prop straight out of […]

The Stranger Things x Puma collection is not just the MB.06. LaMelo Ball signature-adjacent pairs are getting the Upside Down treatment too, and the LaFrance might actually be the loudest shoe of the whole pack. The MB.06 Stranger Things leads the collection with its plum-and-purple look, but this one goes completely the other direction. The […]

LaMelo Ball is heading to the Upside Down. Puma just confirmed a full Stranger Things collection with their signature star, and the centerpiece is the MB.06 wrapped in a spiderweb of Upside Down graphics. If you have followed Melo at all you know the vibe fits perfectly, the guy has never met a loud colorway […]

Song for the Mute keeps doing something most collaborators forget to do. They change the shoe itself. The SFTM x adidas Samba OG Core Black, style code HQ7600, landed October 16, 2026 for $130, and I think it is the strongest Samba mutation of the whole FW26 lineup. The Australian label first showed this set […]

Every fall Nike slips out one Dunk that nobody schedules their day around and then it quietly becomes the best value on the shelf. I think the Nike Dunk Low Retro Donut, style code IM4415-201, is that shoe this year. It retails for $120 and released October 2026, and pairs are still findable at Nike […]

Alaska gets a Dunk. That alone was enough for me to pay attention, but the APB x Nike SB Dunk Low Midnight Navy turned out to be one of the wildest SB builds of 2026, dropping December 12, 2026 for $130 under style code IQ8497-900. APB, short for All Points Bulletin, is the Honolulu skate […]

Jordan Brand has been leaning hard into holiday themes lately. The Santa Air Jordan 3 handles the nice list. The Air Jordan 3 Not Nice is what happens to everybody else. It lands November 21, 2026 for $215 and style code IF4396-001, and I think it is quietly the most interesting Jordan of the season. […]

Holiday Jordan releases used to mean one thing for me. Space Jams, Concords, stuff that came in a fancy box. But every year around late November my brain drifts back to 1989 instead. The Air Jordan 4 Bred is coming back on November 27, 2026, and honestly I think this might be the most important […]

The line between sneaker culture and streaming culture keeps getting thinner, and Rakai is the newest proof. If you know the name, you know him from the livestreams. If you do not, get ready, because the guy just landed his own Under Armour signature silhouette, which is a sentence that would have sounded completely insane […]

Tyrrell Winston has been one of my favorite “wait, what label is this on” collaborations to watch. The New York artist built his name on found objects and consumer culture detritus, basketballs pulled out of dumpsters and recontextualized into gallery pieces, and somehow that eye translates to sneakers better than most designers with actual footwear […]

The ASICS Gel-Kayano 14 returns in an Illusion Blue and Pure Silver colorway, the latest grey-blue look for the 2008-era Y2K runner. Style code 1203A537-402, $165, released October 1.

The OTW by Vans x Satoshi Nakamoto Era 95 Gems (VN000EFEBLK) released October 16th for $195 and instantly sold out. Gemstone collars, hand wiped sidewalls and a hidden sole print.

Winter is coming, and honestly Nike picked a good candidate to weatherproof. The Air Max 95 Big Bubble is getting a GORE-TEX build for Holiday 2026, and the first colorway out the gate is this Light Bone and Campfire Orange pair. SKU IO1877-001. Two hundred and twenty dollars retail. I have been waiting for someone […]

Every time I think JJJJound is done with the 990v3, they pull me right back in. The Montreal studio just confirmed the newest linkup with New Balance, and this one might be the most JJJJound thing they have ever made. It is called the 990v3 Suede, it carries style code U9904D8, and it lands Thursday, […]

The Terror Squad x Nike Air Force 1 Low University Red and White (II4391-100) spent three years as a Fat Joe friends-and-family exclusive. It just finally dropped on SNKRS for $150.

College colorways on Foamposites are nothing new. Oregon gets a pair every couple of years like clockwork. But Florida State? That is rare air. Nike just confirmed the Air Foamposite Pro is coming back in full garnet and gold Seminoles colors this fall, and honestly, I did not have an FSU Foamposite on my Black […]

The Greedy Air Max 95 is back and honestly I did not expect to care this much. IM2211-001 dropped September 8 through SNKRS and select Nike Sportswear retailers for $200, and it brought something with it that purists have been begging for since the Big Bubble program started. The early-spec Air unit. The big one. […]

Halloween sneaker season is a minefield. Every year brands dump orange and purple everything onto shelves and hope the spooky branding does the heavy lifting. Most of it lands flat. Then Jordan Brand goes and drops the Air Jordan 5 Retro “Halloween” and suddenly I’m the one feeling flat footed for doubting the concept. Let’s […]

Anthony Edwards has been a problem for the rest of the league since he stepped on an NBA court. Now in his third signature shoe with adidas, the man they call Ant-Man is dropping a Halloween colorway that feels tailor-made for the season. The adidas Anthony Edwards 3 “Omen” lands on October 23rd, eight days […]

I’ll be honest. When Salehe Bembury first linked up with New Balance, I wasn’t sure how long the hype would last. Collaborations come and go. But the guy keeps swinging for the fences every single time. The Heat Be Hot Magma colorway of the 1906R is proof that he’s not slowing down. Let me set […]

Think about every iconic Space Jam sneaker moment you know. The black and concord AJ11s MJ wore against the Monstars. The Air Jordan 9s from the Tune Squad practice scenes. All classic stuff. But Jordan Brand just did something I did not expect for the 30th anniversary. They made a shoe about the making of […]

I’ve been following Bad Bunny’s partnership with adidas since the beginning, and I can honestly say this might be the most beautiful shoe they’ve made together. The Gazelle Indoor “Solar Gold” drops October 17 and if you’ve slept on the previous Benito collaborations, this one is going to wake you up. Buy This ↑ The […]

I’ve been staring at these pictures for ten minutes and I still can’t decide if this is the craziest Dunk of the year or the most logical collaboration ever. Supreme, Martine Rose, and Nike putting Mike Tyson on a shoe. Three brands that should not make sense together on paper, but here we are looking […]

Patent leather and Deion Sanders feel like they were always meant to find each other. The man wore flashy suits, drove flashy cars, and played football like every snap was a highlight reel waiting to happen. So when Nike announced the Air Diamond Turf II would get a glossy patent leather makeover in Black/Gym Red/Metallic […]

I have been waiting for this one. NIGO linking up with j-hope from BTS on an Air Force 1 is the kind of collaboration that sounds fake when you first hear it. Then you see the shoe and it clicks. Everything makes sense. The Nike Air Force 1 World Tour series has been NIGO’s playground […]
