Performance footwear and apparel brand HOKA has teamed up with Moncler to reimagine the Mafate Speed 2 running shoe.The redesigned silhouette is suited for the mountains with an all-terrain performance-ready construction. The shoe features a white and silver design with HOKA’s signature geometry and the Moncler and HOKA names. With a focus on technical terrains, the shoe features a thick midsole for support and a Vibram Megagrip outsole for added traction. The footwear is finished off with Moncler’s tricolor detailing and its signature Moncler felt patch on the tongue.Last month, Moncler announced its inaugural fragrances “Moncler Pour Homme” and “Moncler Pour Femme” through its Moncler Genius project.  The men’s fragrance features notes of cedarwood, sandalwood, clary sage, vetiver and citrus, while the women’s fragrance features Italian bergamot, jasmine sambac, heliotrope, amber, vanilla and more.Priced at £215 GBP (about $294 USD), the limited-edition Moncler x HOKA Mafate Speed 2 is available now at Moncler House of Genius stores, pop-ups and a selection of Moncler boutiques worldwide.

Even after creating a whopping 50 Dunk colorways with Nike, Virgil Abloh has plenty of footwear collaborations in his cannon that he plans on unloading in the coming months and in 2022. Up next for the talented designer are Off-White™ x Nike Air Force 1 Mid makeups, and its white colorway has just surfaced again by way of detailed imagery.The Air Force 1 Mid is often seen as a clean and classic silhouette that’s build with smooth leather uppers and crisp bottoms, but given that this is another team-up helmed by Abloh, he completely revamps the shoe with unique features. Base layers are predominantly done up in white and come forged with an angelic synthetic material that features tonal all-over streaks. Thicker white stitchings assist in shaping out the shoe’s various paneling such as the toe boxes and quarters and the straps usher in some contrast thanks to their gray and black grid patterns. The usual Off-White™ branding arrives on the medial side, while a pop of orange shows face on the lateral. Two sets of laces emerge on the kicks, the first of which sits on the throat and is dialed to a clean white while the second set loops through the medial and lateral walls.Other elements include that of the added heel cup, curvy Air bubble windows and the treading which has been remixed with blue, green and pink track spikes in the forefoot.Peep a closer look here and expect these to likely release in 2022. View this post on Instagram A post shared by RepGod888 (@repgod888) View this post on Instagram A post shared by RepGod888 (@repgod888)For more sneaker news, the Nike ACG Mountain Fly GORE-TEX has appeared in a “Clay Green” colorway.
