Designed by Ben Kirschner, the Nike SF-AF1 draws in inspiration from tactical military gear, namely the SFB Boot that is in use by the military today. It only makes sense to release the popular silhouette in street-ready camouflage prints, and first up is the classic Desert Camo in tan and brown tones in a mix of tumbled leather and a rugged canvas heel.

The Nike SF-AF1 “Desert Camo” will release at limitEDitions on February 25th.

The AEON OG is a special “Espresso ristretto” limited edition that is extremely faithful to the original model of 1993 that was presented on the running section of the Diadora sport catalogue.

Faithful to the original model, the internal upper has been developed with a sock construction with the “Synergy fit” system: a combining structure of tongue and collar in a single unit of Lycra and Neoprene that was originally used to return the foot to its correct position. While the external part is in leather and nylon mesh. The colors are the same as the original model: white with violet and pink accents that as the design are typical from the iconic 90’s.

The AEON OG will be released in limited quantities on February 25th at limitEDitions.

“I think the Dunk has something that’s very special. It’s grounded in sport as well as in the street style culture,” says Tisci. “For younger generations it can fit as many different styles tribes as you can imagine. I think it’s one of the most iconic shoes that Nike has ever created.”
Exaggerated proportions carry over from the Dunk Lux High, including the big belly Swoosh and englarged foxing and eyestay. The shoe also retains a full-grain leather upper for durability, drop-in Lunarlon insole for ultra-soft cushioning and memory foam in the quilted leather collar and tongue for a secure and comfortable fit.
Added features include removal of the toe perforations, rolled edges on the upper and the RT logo and Nike swoosh debossed on the heel.

The second instalment of the 2017 Sneaker Exchange is a transcontinental collaboration between two major Consortium partners.

Sweden’s Sneakersnstuff began life in Stockholm and has gradually opened stores across northern Europe. Similarly, Social Status started with a single store in North Carolina before expanding around the eastern United States.

Geographical expansion may have served as an ice-breaker, but adidas Consortium challenged the two parties to find further common ground to work together on a sneaker pack. After sharing and developing ideas, they present two models which reflect the changing role of sneakers in both a practical and a wider social sense.

Initially intended as performance footwear for athletes, sneakers have grown in cultural significance; becoming style and design icons in their own right. Conversation developed between the two retailers on how classic sporting equipment can become iconographic. How it can, over time, gradually be elevated and reimagined, get remade in expensive materials, in silver or gold, and encrusted with jewels or diamonds. That opulence serves as the inspiration behind the colourways here. The result is athletic footwear reimagined in monochrome luxury.

The UltraBOOST is the first to get the makeover. adidas’ marquee runner-turned-casualwear sensation is executed in breathable grey/white melange Primeknit upper with leather overlays. It features a taped toe-tip and – as the luxurious highlight – a soft matte suede cage.

Sneakersnstuff and Social Status apply the same BOOST and Primeknit attributes to the Superstar, giving the old-school basketball silhouette advantages of today’s technology. The result is a lighter, more flexible take on a late sixties hardwood classic.

After the introduction of the YEEZY BOOST 350 V2 silhouette in 2016, the first adidas by Kanye West release of 2017 sees the model return in a black/red colourway.

The latest model features a black Primeknit upper with contrast red letters bearing a mirrored ‘SPLY-350′ mark, distinct center stitching and for the first time, a heel tab. A semi-translucent rubber outsole and TPU sidewalls create a striking effect while providing superior traction, while the YEEZY BOOST 350 V2 midsole utilises adidas’ innovative BOOST technology to create a durable, shock-resistant, responsive sole.

The highly sought-after silhouette will release in both adult and infant sizes.

BAIT has teamed up with Dreamworks Studios for an ongoing Diadora series inspired by some of the most iconic characters in animated movie history as Shrek and Felix the cat.
The ‘Made In Italy’ variety of the Diadora N9000 has always been one of the best running silhouettes to transform into a lifestyle offering as we can see in Shrek where the olive colour choices mixed with premium suede, apricot leather, and heathered canvas creates a rich affair inspired by none other than everyone’s favorite ogre, Shrek. The outsole is even speckled with straw particles while a unique printed insole showcases Shrek with triple branding from BAIT, Diadora, and Dreamworks.

Hannon and Reebok join forces in Spring ‘17 and are proud to present a brand new collaboration on a re-imagined edition of the Reebok Club C, a model which began as a performance tennis sneaker in the mid-80s.
For this coming together they travel back some years into Scotland’s history and take inspiration from the legendary Claymore sword.

The ‘Great Sword’ as it translates from Scots’ Gaelic, originated during the medieval period and is distinctive in style by the decorative circular shape that adorns each side of the handle. Recognised as a symbol of strength and prowess, it was set apart from its contemporaries due to an unwieldy length and broad blade, and was the weapon of choice during Scotland’s clan wars and battles for border control against the English.

The ‘CLaymore’ edition of the Club C is forged in rich pig suede and split with a ‘chain mail’ ballistic mesh. To depict the Great Sword, the upper is executed in sharp silver grey with a blue steel rubber outsole and offset with a lush brown satin lining.

Dual branding is applied to the upper by way of a shield and sword logo lockup, whilst an ornate Celtic knot pattern is featured across the collar lining, tongue backer and silk screened onto a laminate leather footbed.

Additional detail appears across the shoe by way of an embossed tongue patch with bar tack stitching, gold top eyelet, criss-cross micro perforations over the vamp and gold swords embossed on each heel tab.

Reebok has landed firmly back on the map—a move spearheaded by its innovative (and just plain cool) Pump Supreme silhouette. While the style originally debuted in partnership with equally well-hyped label Vetements, the Pump Supreme is quickly coming into its own as the rightful heir to Reebok’s game-changing Pump technology. The latest version of the new sneaker—known as the “Jacquard Tape” edition—is both forward-facing but inspired by the past, leaving no doubt that fans will be clamoring for this shoe the moment it hits shelves.

Similar to other editions of the Pump Supreme, the Jacquard Tape bears the streamlined slip-on silhouette the sneaker is known for. This also includes the reengineered fit sleeve, a feature that brings the foot closer to the knit upper and maximizes the feel and function of the shoe’s namesake Pump technology. The unique twist to this rendition has to be the literal jacquard tape branding that runs along the center of upper as well as the back pull tab—a direct callback to 90’s tracksuits. This throwback nod is also embodied in the upper’s retro all-over mesh, which is different from the main model’s engineered mesh upper.

While Reebok is known for its prestigious archive literal classics, this take on the Pump Supreme puts past into present in a subliminal, yet startlingly clever way.

Arthur Ashe & Yannick Noah met in the first time in Cameroon when Ashe heading up a training course for young talented tennis players.
Noah was only 11 but he has made a great impression to Ashe, who decided to help him launch his career. In 1978, he decided to invite the young Yannick Noah to compete in doubles at Wimbledon.
