A running shoe that takes design cues from Mary Janes and dress shoes. I know how that sounds. But the ASICS GEL-DS Trainer SP pulls it off. September 4, 2026 release. Built on the GEL-DS TRAINER 14 tooling, which is a real performance running platform. The upper goes a completely different direction though. Mary Jane […]

Chunky sneakers are everywhere. Prada looked at that trend and went the other way. The Court sneaker for 2026 is minimal, refined, and confident enough to not need a gimmick. May 2026 launch. Classic court shoe silhouette elevated with Prada’s material expertise. The upper combines re-nylon, Prada’s iconic fabric, with brushed leather. The textural contrast […]

Balenciaga does not make safe shoes. The Jet Sneaker for Fall 2026 continues that tradition. Couture deconstruction applied to a performance silhouette. Weird? Yes. That is the point. Mesh layers give it a deconstructed look. Like you are seeing the internal structure instead of a finished exterior. The lacing system is elastic, corset-style. No traditional […]

300 grams. That is the number Pharrell’s Louis Vuitton team built the LV Drop 300 around. Just over 300 grams for a luxury sneaker. I had to double-check that figure when I first read it. Unveiled July 2026. Retro running shoe DNA updated with technical fabrics and a ripple-patterned sole. Pharrell has been pushing LV’s […]

Demna’s La Famiglia collection for Gucci keeps producing interesting pieces. The Stretch low-top for SS26 is one of them. Light, soft, flexible. Not words you usually associate with luxury sneakers, but here we are. The metallic silver colorway is the standout. Soft leather with a hand-created worn-out effect. Unlined, so it feels broken-in from day […]

JENNIE from BLACKPINK has been an adidas Originals ambassador for a while now. Her debut collab, “Functional Grace” for FW26, finally dropped September 1, 2026. The timing feels right. The headliner is the Superstar SQ Ballet. Squared toe, reimagined Superstar silhouette, ballet precision meets streetwear. I was skeptical when I heard “ballet Superstar.” But seeing […]

Flacko got his first signature model with Puma. The Straycat is here, and it is exactly what you would expect from A$AP Rocky. Motorsport vibes, aggressive lines, no playing it safe. August/September 2026 release. Vibram outsole on a sneaker that blurs racewear and streetwear. The motorsport references are not just surface-level styling. The shoe is […]

New Balance cannot stop winning right now. The 983 is their latest, built from the 2000s running archive, and I think it might be the best looking NB to drop this year. Coco Gauff and Aminé front the campaign. The 983 pulls from early-2000s NB running shoes but does not feel like a reissue. ABZORB […]

No more leather-heavy retros. The Air Jordan 41 is a clean break, and after seeing it in hand, I think the direction is the right one. August 2026 limited China release, then global drop. The upper uses a nano print mesh designed for targeted containment and breathability. The cross-hatch pattern can take dual color treatments. […]

Can a shoe inspired by a frog actually be good? I had my doubts when I first saw the render. But the Air Liquid Max in person is a different animal entirely. March 2026 launch. Poison dart frog inspiration. I know, I know, “nature-inspired sneakers” is a phrase that gets thrown around a lot. But […]

Nike SB is in the middle of a comeback. The skateboarding offshoot, which first launched in 2002, has been largely irrelevant for a handful of years, but is making headway through a reignited interest in its past sneakers and newer product that’s been well-received at market. A few of the newer designs have riffed on […]

The first few months of the year in sneaker culture have been defined by hyped collaborations and a resurgence of a certain skate-leaning shoe that has everyone from Virgil Abloh to Travis Scott lining up to reconfigure its timeless design. Follow along as we take a quick look back at 10 of our favorite releases […]

KD13 Brings Double-Stacked Zoom

“Chunk Dunky.”

Official product images of the Jonah Hill x Adidas Superstar have surfaced via the brand’s Thailand e-commerce site. The sneakers are advertised to release on Friday, April 10 with an expected retail price of $140, although the date has yet to be confirmed in the U.S. The site’s product description does little to elaborate on […]

Travis Scott’s Nike Air Max 270 React is now set to release on April 10th.

From Sneakernews.com: Despite not even having released yet, the Nike Adapt LE 01 has amassed quite a decent sum of schemes: some with orange accents, others with yellow, and now one with the brand’s ever-notable Infrared tone. But as the latter changes its only bit of color, everything else — from the upper to the […]
