Name: Miu Miu x New Balance RC150SKU: TBCRelease Date: February 2027Entering its fifth year of collaborative partnership, Miu Miu and New Balance have reunited to debut a fresh reinterpretation of the RC150 racing sneaker, which recently previewed on the French fashion house’s Spring/Summer 2027 runway in Paris.Originally launched by New Balance in the late 1990s, the RC150 was conceived as a high-performance road-racing shoe celebrated for its groundbreaking, ultra-lightweight 150-gram construction. Today, vintage iterations of the model are exceptionally rare and hard to find. In the hands of Miu Miu, the heritage runner has been playfully subverted and decontextualized, transforming the familiar athletic silhouette into an unexpected, high-fashion statement piece with an effortless attitude.The collaborative New Balance x Miu Miu RC150 is heavily deconstructed, featuring a malleable technical mesh upper that is disrupted by prominent contrast zigzag embroidery across its entirety. Ensuring agility and everyday comfort, the extremely lightweight upper is paired with a flexible UltraLight sole. Adding a touch of the collaboration’s signature irreverence, the sneakers are finished with interchangeable laces that are loosely knotted at the toe through external loops, encouraging individual personalization.Drawing direct inspiration from the original shoe’s late-1990s origins, the collection’s color palette offers both soft, muted tones and bold, vibrant iterations — including a striking, highly visible blue and bright yellow makeup showcased during the runway presentation. The exclusive footwear capsule is slated to arrive at selected Miu Miu boutiques and online in February 2027.

Name: KEEN UNEEK Mule WKColorway: BlackSKU: 1033311MSRP: $195 USDRelease Date: October 2Where to Buy: KeenKEEN is taking its most recognizable design in a more refined direction with the All Gender UNEEK Mule WK. The shoe converts the brand’s iconic two-cord sneaker into an ultra-premium mule, handcrafted in ethically sourced leather and finished in black.The core idea is a change in form. The UNEEK’s defining two-cord construction carries over, but the closed sneaker becomes a mule, with the back opened up for an easy slip-on fit. Keeping the cords while removing the heel means the silhouette stays instantly recognizable even as it moves into a more relaxed shape.The material shift is just as significant. Instead of the technical build associated with the original model, the mule is handcrafted from ethically sourced leather. That choice, together with the handwork, is what moves the UNEEK from a trail-adjacent oddity into the premium category KEEN is targeting here. The all-black finish keeps the focus on the leather and the cordwork rather than on color.The move also fits the UNEEK’s history. The silhouette first arrived in 2014, and its open, cord-built design has always stood apart from the hiking boots and water sandals that make up most of KEEN’s catalog. That outlier status helped it win fans beyond the outdoors crowd. A leather mule leans into that identity, presenting the UNEEK as a design object first and outdoor gear second.
