Month: August 2023

At the end of last month, Nike signaled its transition from summer to fall product with reveals such as the newly-designed Air Force 1 Wild popping up. Again, the brand has iterated upon a staple in its repertoire — upgrading the Air Force 1 Low with a build that is ready for exploration, drawing inspiration from shoes such as the Air Humara. With its first two looks, the silhouette has stuck to fall palettes, balancing black, orange and brown.Now, the Air Force 1 Wild takes a fresh approach with a “Phantom” presentation that favors a lighter, monochromatic finish. From collar to outsole, the shoe dons various off-white hues that serve as a canvas to showcase one’s wear with pride. Again, a ballistic nylon reinforces the upper’s base while a pronounced suede appears at the overlays and Swooshes in a slightly-darker hue. Per usual, the checkered midsole makes a return with the strengthened outsole supporting the sneaker with a special tread at the toe and heel.While Nike has yet to formally introduce the Nike Air Force 1 Wild, this “Phantom” colorway is currently expected to land on shelves starting November 2 via Nike and select retailers at a price of $140 USD in women’s sizing.For more of the latest and greatest from the footwear space, another outdoor-oriented sneaker, the Air Max 90 GORE-TEX, had appeared in a “Medium Olive” colorway that is a fitting fall look.

It’s time for Jordan Brand’s annual changing of the guard — going from one Air Jordan to the next. For the Air Jordan 37, it managed to make plenty of noise in its yearlong run with everything from a classic “Raptors” look to an UNDEFEATED collaboration. Now, it’s time for the Air Jordan 38 to shine.Teased during the silhouette’s reveal, the “FIBA” colorway celebrates the International Basketball Federation as its release overlaps with this year’s FIBA Basketball World Cup. The technology-backed design makes use of its textured upper to weave in a light gray alongside a predominantly-white finish. Elsewhere, the tongue and heel include strong hits of gold around the Jumpman branding with a trophy embroidered at the interior portion of the tongue. Lastly, the full-length Zoom Strobel unit and full-length Cushlon 3.0 foam are encased by a black and white sole unit supported by a translucent outsole.With the Air Jordan 38 making its debut on shelves in just two weeks, the “FIBA” colorway is set to serve as the second release for the new silhouette on September 7. Look for it to be made available via Nike SNKRS and select Jordan Brand retailers at a price of $200 USD.Looking for more of the latest news from the footwear space? We’ve got you covered.

Follow the reveal of the all-black, stealthy Nike P-6000 Premium, the Swoosh has revealed a earth-toned colorway for the sneaker classic. The shoe is especially popular amongst those that enjoy the retro style mixed with modern comfort. Bringing both nostalgia and functionality to the forefront, the shoe is readied in “Khaki” for the upcoming Fall season.The shoe is constructed in a mixture of materials for breathability and aesthetic. Made with mesh, leather and suede overlays, the shoe’s color scheme follows that of photon dust, khaki, light bone, pale ivory, sail and baroque brown. Overlays are dressed in light bone to contrast the photon dust base while khaki accents complement the shoe throughout. Khaki hits the Swoosh branding on the lateral, the Nike tongue label, suede toe guard and portions of the midsole and inner lining. A special heel tab sees Nike spelled out in Korean on the left sneaker as well as a custom graphic that celebrate’s the brand’s founding year of 1972 on the right heel. The same graphic is portrayed on the insoles. Rounding out the design is a khaki and sail midsole that sit atop a black rubber outsole.Look out for the Nike P-6000 “Khaki” arriving in select retailers and on Nike for $120 USD.In case you missed it, the New Balance 650 surfaces in “Burgundy.”
