For more details, dive into our initial coverage below.Original Story: With Ye out of the picture and Beyoncé’s IVY PARK line gradually losing traction, Bad Bunny is one artist that adidas can certainly lean on to lead the charge for its expansive music roster. The Puerto Rican artist has officially entered into the next phase of its partnership with the German sportswear giant as he finally debuted his inaugural Campus Light team-up, and now his new offering has surfaced in a brand new “Olive” color scheme.The exact inspiration details for this specific installment have yet to be confirmed by either party, but at first glance it appears that Un Verano Sin Ti artist pandered towards a militaristic motif. Uppers are predominantly formed with a shaggy suede build that is covered in a dusty green hue, and this is contrasted by a drab olive accent that rests across its puffed-up, satin-covered collars. Earthy, alternating shades of brown are delivered to the double-stacked tongues and the inner booties, the former of which hosts Bad Bunny’s signature eye icon. Three Stripe branding arrives in a lighter gray hue while the mudguards and sole pieces retain their creamy finishes from the first release.More information surrounding its official release is expected to turn up in the coming months.Elsewhere in sneaker news, the adiFOM Superstar has surfaced with a “Triple Black” palette.

Following its collaboration with Dickies Japan, XLARGE is joining forces with UK footwear titan Clarks Originals for an all-new Wallabee Low. This marks the pairing’s first union and merges the DNA of both brands into one footwear offering. Much like XLARGE’s recent team-up with atmos and adidas on the ADIMATIC silhouette, the boot is supplied in an all-over black and green palette. Premium black suede wraps the uppers all around, while vibrant green laces inject brightness into the darkened design. Additionally, the previous is adorned with contrasting tassels alongside enlarged leather hang tags with XLARGE’s gorilla figure. Branded badges enhance the ankle areas, all stacked atop Clarks’ identifiable crepe sole units for a cohesive look.

London-based active club Run the Boroughs has made it a habit to unite with New Balance in celebration of the annual TSC London Marathon. The duo has collaborated on the Made in UK 730 and 991 silhouettes over the past two years, touching on the 576 for 2023. Since 2018, Run The Boroughs has crafted a close-knit community of British runners and often takes over the capital’s streets with immersive races open to athletes of all ages. In honor of the 42-kilometer race, New Balance and Run The Boroughs presents a unique take on the 576 that reflects the collective’s local roots. Motivating its wearers to explore London’s enchanting neighborhoods, the shoe is embraced by a natural green palette inspired by the city’s outdoor landscape. Moss-like green shades adorn the suede mudguards and heel counters, contrasted by grey mesh underlays that mirror London’s concrete buildings. Lighter variations hit the medial panels, ankle areas, and rear tabs, while customary N logos decorate the first with white leather perimeters. Grey rubber heel guards are embossed with New Balance branding accompanied by additional markings throughout the pair. Finally, fuzzy pigskin tongues receive interchangeable patches with compass-like directions, portraying different areas across London. Two-toned midsoles and track-ready gum bottoms complete the design. Take a closer look at the Run The Boroughs x New Balance 576 in the gallery above.
