Short for “Claim A Seat At The Table,” Claima Stories shares the journeys of emerging creatives and entrepreneurs of color. Helmed by co-founder Bimma Williams — who is certainly no stranger to the world of sneakers, having spent much of his career at some of the industries biggest names — the independent podcast has since celebrated the work of over 100 different talents. And now, as part of their own “Claim A Seat” initiative, Williams and his team are channeling their voice through a very special collaboration with Saucony and […]

Jordan Brand is already making preparations for Chinese New Year, lining up a very auspicious colorway of the Air Jordan 1 Low OG. 2024 marks the beginning of the Year of the Dragon, to which the Jumpman has dedicated this Air Jordan 1 Low OG. Alongside boasting a range of culturally significant colors — such as gold, red, and jade — the pair features leather overlays akin to the scales of said zodiac animal. And though largely typical in its construction elsewhere, opting for standard materials across its neutral white […]

The Nike P-6000 is set to return in full force soon, furthering the brand’s pursuit of the Y2K trend. Reminiscent of the Zoom Vomero 5, which has resurged in popularity over the last year, the P-6000 is a hybrid silhouette rooted in 2000s style. Informed by both the Pegasus 25 and Pegasus 2006, the sneaker features a mesh base overlaid with a series of synthetic leather and suede panels. “Metallic Silver” and “Coconut Milk” take on the latest P-6000 offering, working with “Black” and “Summit White” tones to deliver a […]

For their latest kids-exclusive Air Jordan 1 Mid, the Jumpman is trying their hand at arts and crafts. A playful colorway befitting its size run, this Air Jordan 1 Mid begins with a relatively straightforward colorway. Here, white neutrals dress the base, midsole, and lace unit, while light blues are painted onto not only the overlays but also the branding atop the ankle flaps and tongue. The lateral Swoosh has received the most modifications: alongside boasting a see-through exterior, the fixture has been carved out and filled with a handful […]

Kiko Kostadinov‘s name may not ring alongside mainstream fashion designers, but the Bulgarian-born British designer continues to influence every space in which he operates. Ahead of Fall/Winter 2023, Kostadinov took to Instagram to tease unreleased projects from ASICS SportStyle, the lifestyle-focused line he’s helmed since October 2020. The upcoming options offer more of the same from Kostadinov and company, and include the GT-2160 and GEL-Kayano 20. The 30-something-year-old has continuously demonstrated a penchant for experimental design and eye-catching color schemes, and the upcoming ASICS releases continue the trend. Shades of […]

Celebrating 16 years with The Swoosh, Kevin Durant opened the 2022-23 postseason with the first appearance at his 16th signature silhouette. Having taken over the summer’s outdoor hoops scene from the brand’s NY vs. NY tournament to last weekend’s World Basketball Festival, the Nike KD 16 now arrives ahead of the winter basketball season in a collection of team bank offerings. Bridging his past silhouette’s malleable animal print mesh upper with the unrivaled court feel he received via a full-length Zoom sole unit in the 15, Durant’s 16th signature boasts […]

We’re well aware that adidas Basketball has big plans for 2023, as they revealed countless releases at their “Remember The Why” event earlier in the year. But outside of brand new silhouettes — the Crazy IIInfinity and SUPERTEAM 2000 S, for example — the brand is looking back on many an iconic sneaker, especially that of the late Kobe Bryant. Formerly known as the KB 8, the adidas Crazy 8 was Kobe Bryant’s first signature sneaker. And following the recent release of its “Knicks” colorway, the model is lining up […]

Few upstart brands have been able the bottle and release disruption like MSCHF has. From their wacky projects like their backwards shoe that can be worn in both directions to their industry partnerships like their Big Red Boot (Yellow) with Crocs, the brand started by a former Buzzfeed employee has gained a cult following of sneakerheads and attention-seekers alike. Perhaps their most validating collaboration yet is easily with Reebok. Together, they bring to life the Pump Omni Zone IX — a reimagined take the Omni Zone II with eight additional […]

In addition to collaborations with the likes of Albino & Preto, the Nike Dunk Low has lined up several inline colorways for the coming Fall/Winter. Quite a sizable departure from its more gentlemanly offerings, this newly-revealed take on the Nike Dunk Low is clad in range of different colors, most of which are appropriate to the season. “Vivid Sulfur” highlights the Swooshes, lining, and rope laces, while “Cargo Khaki” complements by way of the textured leather overlays. And with the exception of the insoles and the embroidered branding at the […]

Nike continues to explore the depths of its timelessly iconic ACG catalog, bringing back classics from throughout the 1990s decade like the recently revealed ACG Air Torre Mid and the ACG Air Exploraid – both of which Sneaker News provided a first look at. The latter model, first releasing back in 1999, will indeed be returning in 2024 in both the original “Ash Green” colorway, followed by a modern, off-the-trail version in “Light Orewood Brown”. The former is currently expected in February, while the latter is expected in March of […]
