Name: NikeSKIMS Rift Mesh “Psychic Pink”Colorway: Psychic Pink/Psychic Pink/Psychic PinkSKU: IO7694-600MSRP: $150 USDRelease Date: May 14Where to Buy: NikeKim Kardashian’s SKIMS and Nike’s collaborative NikeSKIMS Rift Mesh is back with a new colorway of the collaborative split-toe silhouette. “Psychic Pink” arrives May 14 in a head-to-toe bubble gum pink finish, marking the collab’s most visually assertive release to date.The construction stays consistent with the Rift Mesh’s established build. Mesh covers the upper, keeping the silhouette lightweight and breathable through the warmer months. Soft foam underfoot maintains the shoe’s lounge-ready comfort positioning, a through-line across every NikeSKIMS Rift Mesh release since the partnership’s January debut. The hook-and-loop strap at the midfoot provides an adjustable fit without compromising the low-profile silhouette, and the outsole carries SKIMS “S” logo detailing in place of standard rubber tread, one of the more quietly distinctive construction choices in the collab’s toolkit.What “Psychic Pink” changes is the color register. The NikeSKIMS Rift Mesh launched in January 2026 across three colorways: Black, Velvet Brown, and Archaeo Brown, all grounded in the earth-tone minimalism that has defined SKIMS’ clothing aesthetic since the brand’s inception. A Satin iteration followed in February, again operating within a muted palette. “Psychic Pink” represents the first time the partnership has committed to a loud, singular color across the entire shoe, with the same shade running from the split-toe cap through the mesh upper, midfoot strap, and co-branded heel with no tonal variation or contrast detailing to break it up. The monochrome execution is consistent with the silhouette’s design logic, as the Rift Mesh has always treated the whole shoe as a single surface, but the color choice marks a deliberate pivot toward summer and a broader consumer than the one the earth-tone launches were speaking to.The timing aligns with a wider industry movement toward expressive color in women’s footwear, and within the NikeSKIMS line specifically, the “Psychic Pink” drop signals that the partnership is willing to test the limits of its own established palette.

Name: Coca-Cola x adidas Originals Superstar IIColorway: White/Cream/RedSKU: KH6892MSRP: TBCRelease Date: June 6Where to Buy: adidas JapanCoca-Cola and adidas Originals are releasing a collaborative Superstar II on June 6 as part of a wider six-shoe summer collection. The shoe is built on a weathered white base with cream and red accents and Coca-Cola Classic script branding on the side panel.The design brief here is tight and it executes cleanly. A Footwear White leather upper carries the Superstar’s shell-toe silhouette in its most recognizable form, while cream accents soften what could have read as a stark all-white canvas, pushing the shoe toward something warmer and more worn-in. Red lands as the third element, pulling the palette directly into Coca-Cola Classic territory without requiring the script logo to carry all the branding weight on its own. By the time the Coke script appears on the side panel, it reads as confirmation rather than announcement.That restraint is what separates the model from the louder pieces in the same collection. The white Superstar’s approach is more considered: the collab identity is present and legible, but the shoe’s own heritage geometry does most of the visual work. The shell toe construction, in production since 1969, has a strong enough silhouette that it doesn’t need a graphic to justify itself, and the Footwear White colorway respects that.
