adidas has just presented a new general release colorway of its Response CL silhouette and the sneaker is soon to be available in an understated “Grey/Black” colorway.It’s been no secret that recent drops of the Response CL have been hard to come by. And while Bad Bunny’s collaboration on the shoe was teased after “Core Black,” “Metal Grey,” and “Green Oxide” iterations dropped, the Three Stripe has undoubtedly released different silhouettes on a more consistent basis.Alas, this latest version of the Response CL continues to pay homage to adidas’ running technologies from the 2000s, using the Response Cushion from 2003 and the Response Control 7 from 2007. As a whole, the aesthetic of the sneaker has been covered in a combination of “Grey Six,” “Grey Two,” and “Core Black” hues, while the customary Three Stripe on the lateral side has been hit with TPU fabrications.Meanwhile, adidas’ Trefoil logo has been applied to the tongues and heel counter and an EVA cushioned midsole rounds off the pair alongside the stand-out black rubber outsole on the underfoot.You can take a closer look at the new Response CL above and it will be available to shop via the official adi website and with select retailers in the coming weeks.In other footwear news, take a look at the new Air Max 97 silhouette from Nike.

Trippin, one of the UK’s leading online platforms that connects travel, culture, and creativity has connected with Japanese footwear label Merrell 1TRL, exploring Epping Forest to celebrate the release of 1TRL’s all-new Spring/Summer 2023 collection.The campaign is titled “Natural Highs: An Immersive Trip in Nature,” and it has enlisted a collective of Trippin’s closest outdoor lovers to connect with nature like never before. Spending the day in one of Essex’s biggest outdoor landmarks, the group has been encouraged to engage with its senses while camping, bird watching, and more.As the group worked collectively within the forest, they were spotted wearing 1TRL’s latest collection — one that embodies the core principles of exploratory design. Featuring a slew of new footwear designs, such as the Hydro Moc AT Cage, SS Bootie, SS Bootie Mid, and the Hut Moc Packable, each installment from Merrel 1TRL can also be adapted and packed into multiple combinations depending on the terrain.Each style from the new Merrell 1TRL collection was used for a different activity during the Epping Forest expedition — such as forest bathing, sound mindfulness, and overall off-grid exploration — giving a collection of diverse options for mindfully exploring and connecting with nature.You can take a closer look at the new Trippin x Merrell 1TRL campaign above and the new collection from 1TRL is available to shop via the brand’s official website now.In other footwear news, check out the new Air Max 97 “Michigan.”

DTLR is no stranger to collaboration, having worked with New Balance on numerous footwear projects. The duo has dressed the 990v3, 992, and 2002R in many state-tribute makeups, now grasping the latter for a Virgina-inspired take. The retailer has given a first glimpse at its upcoming design, teasing the pair on the southeastern US highway. Pictured aside the state’s welcome sign, the 2002R is clad in a white, black, and red palette reminiscent of the “Virginia Is For Lovers” slogan. The collaboration appears with a predominantly white build, featuring red leather accents on the heels, black toe box detailing, and outlined “N” insignia. Dual-tinted tongues and rear tabs sport Virginia-specific branding, emerging with possible pouch extensions on the former. While no release information has been revealed, the DTLR x New Balance 2002R “Virginia Is For Lovers” will surely tell a compelling story of its local community. Take a closer look at the partnership above. More information on the pair will be revealed on May 26. In other news, The Hundreds drops collaborative capsule with The Perez Bros.
