Nike carries on with its “Toasty” series as it fashions a new Dunk High Retro NN in a “Rattan” colorway. The sportswear giant has been wrapping up the highly-coveted silhouette with a down jacket exterior to keep your toes warm for the colder days just around the corner.For this latest edition, the model takes on a vintage blueprint stitched together with the brand’s “Move to Zero” elements which utilize recycled materials for partial construction. Starting off with a smooth white padded canvas sealing the toe box, the matching quarter panels and ankle collar are sheltered with a quilted look. The overlays follow the same template as the latter with a “Rattan” hue to complete the signature two-toned look which slightly identifies with the first design unveiled in August.Two retro branding tags hang above a black Swoosh which lines the laterals for contrast as the retro pinwheel embellishes the tongue in the same inky shade. Fleece liners keep the interiors cozy while a sail midsole is sandwiched over a Grind outsole resembling the retro gum soles.Interested parties can sign up for the raffle of the Nike Dunk High Retro NN “Rattan” on Sivasdescalzo’s website to cop the pair for €120 EUR (approximately $140 USD).For more Swoosh-related news, Nike developed a new Free Terra Vista that’s made for all types of journeys.

While KEEN may still be best known for its sandals, the Portland-based label has unveiled an all new silhouette for Fall/Winter 2021.

The Jasper is set to arrive in a slew of colorways, some of which encompass one color while others– such as “Pale Olive and Golden Brown” — sport a two-tone and asymmetric aesthetic. Each pair is completed with interchangeable laces.KEEN’s Jasper silhouette is available now from the brand’s web store and select retailers including Garbstore.In related news, here’s everything you need to know about Flowers for Society, the label briding the worlds of footwear and NFTs.

Nike adds a new model to its trail runners roster, with the Free Terra Vista constructed with recycled materials in support of the “Move to Zero” campaign.The latest offering is made up of 20% recycled content by weight and prefers a black canvas base covering the toe box while a breathable mesh padding makes up the tongue and mid-panels on the laterals. Matching black FlyLeather overlays seal everything together while pops of orange pop out from the contrast stitching on the side, tongue branding and heel pull tab. The interiors are lined with wool for maximum comfort and coziness during those long treks while an Anthracite hue details the main lateral Swooshes and Grind rubber soles which resemble that of the Free Run Trail.With a more structured build-up as opposed to the aforementioned silhouette, the new Nike Free Terra Vista provides a more solid fit that can go from the city streets to mountainous terrains with enough room for flexible movements.Look out for the Nike Free Terra Vista “Black Canvas” set to release for $120 USD on November 11 at select retailers and via Nike.For more footwear news, take a peek at the black Off-White™ x Nike Air Force 1 Mid.
