BAPE and adidas have history. They have been collaborating since 2014, dropping NMDs, Dame 4s, and various other Three Stripes models with the iconic A Bathing Ape 1st Camo pattern. But the Ultra Boost Camo Pack that dropped on February 2, 2019 is arguably the best thing to come out of that partnership. Two colorways. […]

When images of the Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 OG High first leaked in late 2018, people legitimately didn’t know what they were looking at. The Swoosh was backwards. Like, actually backwards. Not a factory error, not a joke. Travis Scott had convinced Jordan Brand to flip the Nike Swoosh so it pointed toe-to-heel […]

Nike announced the Air Max 720 in January 2019 and the sneaker world lost its mind. The tallest Air unit in Nike history. 38 millimeters of pure cushion. That number, 720, refers to 360 degrees of Air visible from every angle. It was a bold claim and an even bolder shoe. The first colorway to […]

Nike’s 2019 Black History Month collection was one of those drops that snuck up on people and then completely took over the timeline. I remember scrolling through the official images in January 2019 and thinking this might be the most cohesive BHM collection they’d ever done. The theme was “Until We All Win” and the […]

From Sneakernews.com: Virgil Abloh’s sneaker industry shifting deluge of Off-White x Nike creations is reportedly coming to an end, at least for now. But before the Louis Vuitton menswear frontman hangs his Swoosh up for good, he is unloading one more set of co-branded Beaverton creations by way of a duo of premium Air Max […]

Jordan Brand’s “Reimagined” series was this experimental space they created back in 2018 where they basically said, let’s mess with the classics and see what happens. Some of the results were genuinely surprising. The Air Jordan 3 Explorer “Tropical Twist” is one of those shoes that still makes people stop and look twice. First thing […]

Jeff Staple x Nike SB have joined forces to release a third Pigeon Dunk, this time a black and white “Panda Pigeon” colorway.

When Spike Lee stepped onto the 2019 Golden Globes red carpet in January, he wasn’t just representing his film BlacKkKlansman, which was up for several awards that night. He was also wearing a piece of sneaker history that most people would never be able to own. Tinker Hatfield, the legendary Nike designer behind some of […]

Nike’s annual Black History Month collection is always one of those releases I look forward to. Not just because the colorways are usually striking, but because Nike actually puts thought into the design inspiration. The 2019 BHM collection was no different, and the KD 11 “BHM” stood out as one of the more interesting takes […]

When Sacai designer Chitose Abe teamed up with NikeLab for a collaboration in 2018, nobody knew it would become one of the most influential sneaker partnerships of the decade. The collection first appeared on the Sacai runway during Paris Fashion Week in June 2018, and by December, Nike confirmed the release date for February 2019. […]

Jordan Brand had a message for the sneaker community in late 2018. Stop flipping, start wearing. The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG NRG “Not For Resale” was not just a shoe. It was a statement piece directed at the resale culture that had taken over sneaker releases. And honestly, I think it was one […]

A four-female footwear collective, made up of a designer, engineer, developer and product manager, is responsible for the expressive new Nike Air Max Dia. The design (which was completed on an accelerated timeline) of the women’s exclusive silhouette began by prioritizing the last, working diligently to achieve a tapered (but democratic) toe-box. The result was […]

When Sony Pictures and Jordan Brand linked up for the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse release, I do not think anyone expected the shoe to be this good. The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Origin Story” dropped on December 14, 2018, the same day the animated film hit theaters. It was one of those rare […]

Stephen Curry debuted a new Under Armour Curry 5 colorway in the Warriors 128-111 victory over the Hawks Monday night. An all-black colorway, this latest iteration features the word “BOYANEK” in gold lettering across the shoe’s lateral side which is styled after a tattoo that both Curry and his father, Dell, both have on their […]

James Harden knows within seconds that his defender can’t guard him. Jab, dribble, hesi, cross, step-back, drill the three. Harden’s got his defender on skates before they can even react to his first move. A recipe few can master but for Harden it’s what makes him basketball’s most lethal creator. Designed to enhance No. 13’s […]
