With miserable winter running (hopefully) done and dusted until later in the year, it’s time for runners to begin planning their summer jaunts. As leggings and thermals are replaced with shorts and T-shirts, a new sun-ready pair of runners fit for the occasion might top the wish list.After debuting its Adizero Adios Pro in a “Signal Coral” colorway last year — before “Sunrise Bliss” and “Dream Mile” followed soon after — adidas Running returns for 2021 with an all-new “Screaming Orange” colorway of the world record-breaking sneaker.Flexible, breathable and lightweight, the Adizero Adios Pro boasts a “Screaming Orange” Celermesh upper that sits atop a Lightstrike Pro foam midsole. Returning energy with every stride, the midsole houses carbon-infused rods and a carbon heel plate, alongside optimal cushioning.Designed for faster, longer runs, the Adizero Adios Pro has already proven its worth by breaking a handful of world records, including a 57 minute 32 second half-marathon in Valencia last year.Now in its fourth iteration, the Adizero Adios Pro “Screaming Orange” is set to launch on March 1 via the adidas webstore and will retail at £170 (approximately $240 USD).In other sneaker news, Nike has given its Air Zoom Tempo NEXT% a crisp “Hyper Turquoise” makeover.

Serving as a continuation of a partnership launched last year, we now have a closer look at the Maison Margiela x Reebok Classic Leather Tabi.Coming in tonal “Black” and “White,” the new style serves as a distilled take on the signature codes of the fashion house and sportswear name. Building on the evolved design language from Margiela Creative Director John Galliano, the Classic Leather Tabi is an innovation marked with heritage, where fashion and functionality collide for contemporary yet timeless appeal.The collaboration sees Reebok’s iconic Classic Leather running shoe from 1983 reimagined with Maison Margiela’s Tabi created in 1988. Constructed of premium nappe leather, the entire silhouette has been deconstructed for the distinct split-toe design. Branding comes in the form of dynamic Vector logos formed by overlays on the sides, Reebok badges, co-branded tongue tags and Margiela’s stitching on the rear above the printed heel tabs.Rounding up the design of the shoe is a plush matching sockliner and solid EVA sole that helps express the signature footprint that serves to mark the collision between Margiela and Reebok. Additionally, each shoe comes complete with a tabi toe sock for comfortable wear.Priced at $300 USD, the Maison Margiela x Reebok Classic Leather Tabi will be available from February 26 on Maison Margiela and Reebok’s websites, with a wider release at select Maison Margiela locations and retailers like HBX.For more footwear news, take a closer look at the CLOT x Nike Air Max 1 “Kiss of Death.”

Nike and its roster of hoop athletes is arguably the best in the business, and this season, the Swoosh’s basketball division is crafting a new capsule entitled “Play For The Future” for LeBron James, Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and Paul George that champions sustainability. The Nike PG 5 was previously unveiled, and now Beaverton has given us a detailed perspective of the LeBron 18, KD 13 and Kyrie 7 iterations that are enlisted in the assortment.For the Lakers’ 18-year veteran, his latest model comes prepared with an icy palette as its Knitposite uppers are lent a clean white surface, while the protruding heel counter and midsole molds down below balance out with faint blue hues. Where this court-ready iteration gets environmentally friendly is through the tongues and heel underlays, both of which are decorated with multi-colored Regrind materials.Shifting over Durant’s makeup, his KD 13 takes a slightly darker approach by being anchored with silver-uppers and marbled blue and white patterns that run from front to back. Additional accents arrive by way of the pastel green Swooshes and interior lining, as well as the scrappy accents that are positioned below the ankle collar’s see-through film. Below, the installment is mated with speckled midsoles and translucent treading.For Uncle Drew, Nike takes a different route and opts for a much louder presentation. Netted base layers cage over a vivd backdrop of orange and black abstract patterns, and arrive neighbored by a stark black spine that hosts a remixed “KI” logo with floral petals that poke out from the top. Regrind fragments also see their way to the forefoot and Swoosh logo molds. Additionally, the tongue logos split between Irving’s logo on the right and an “ASW” notation on the left.You can view detailed shots of the kicks here, and note that the entire assortment is set to drop via Nike SNKRS Korea on February 23.For more footwear news, official images of the Nike Air Max Tuned “Celery” have emerged.
