Where To Get The One Piece x Nike Air Max Plus “Ope Ope”

The One Piece x Nike Air Max Plus “Ope Ope” releases September 19, 2026, and this one is staying pretty scarce. A small group of shops in the U.S. and Europe are getting the red pair, while SNKRS is being left out of the release.

The shoe takes its name from the Ope Ope no Mi Devil Fruit and is one of three Air Max Plus colorways tied to the One Piece project. “Gomu Gomu” and “Mera Mera” make up the rest of the lineup, while matching apparel and individual trading cards have also been made for the collection.

Nike has taken a regional approach with these releases. “Mera Mera” already dropped in Japan, Korea, China, Taiwan, Indonesia, and Mexico, and “Gomu Gomu” is expected to be offered through a SNKRS Reserve pre-order. “Ope Ope” is being kept to select retail partners instead.

The U.S. stores include Politics in Dallas, Sole Play in Decatur and Lawrenceville, Arts & Rec in San Diego, and Somewhere in Washington, D.C. Overseas, the pair will be available at Patta in Amsterdam, Afew in Düsseldorf, Offspring in London, Footdistrict in Madrid, One Block Down in Milan, and SNS in Stockholm.

The One Piece x Nike Air Max Plus “Ope Ope” releases September 19, 2026, through the participating retailers.

Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low Gets a Chicago-Like Look for 2027

Travis Scott and Jordan Brand are getting pretty close to a classic “Chicago” look with this upcoming Air Jordan 1 Low, using red, white, and black across the shoe without copying the original colorway exactly. The biggest difference is the red, which looks much darker in these early photos and leans more toward a deep cherry shade.

White covers most of the base, while the darker red fills in the overlays around the toe, eyestay, and heel. The oversized reverse Swoosh stays black on the lateral side, giving the shoe that familiar red, white, and black contrast people immediately connect with the Air Jordan 1 “Chicago.”

This one also feels different from a lot of Travis Scott’s earlier Air Jordan 1 releases. Most of those pairs used their own color stories, so seeing him get this close to one of Jordan Brand’s best-known looks makes the colorway stand out a little more.

Early information from SimaoAdib, MrUnloved1s, and bawsedubbkiccz79 says the pair shown in these first photos is expected to be the version that releases. Sail and pink laces are also included, giving the shoe a few different ways to break up the darker red, white, and black setup.

The Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low OG “Chicago” is expected to release sometime in 2027. An exact release date has yet to be announced.

Converse SHAI 001 “Spark” Drops September 24th

Coming later this month, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s SHAI 001 “Spark” keeps things pretty simple from the outside with a mostly light grey finish. Most of the shoe is covered in light grey, while the bright yellow only really shows once you unzip the shroud.

Light grey covers the molded upper, wrapping around the toe and through the sculpted side panels. The same shade continues across the midsole and rubber outsole, while translucent-looking grey pieces around the heel add some separation without changing the overall look. A front zipper replaces the usual exposed lacing setup and runs nearly the full length of the shroud.

Opening the zipper reveals the biggest change in color. Bright yellow covers the hidden mesh tongue and laces, with more yellow showing on the exposed tongue at the top. Shai’s logo is embroidered in grey, while another yellow detail appears through the small window underneath the outsole.

The SHAI 001 also keeps its basketball setup intact, including Zoom Air cushioning in the forefoot and a wide rubber traction pattern underneath.

The Converse SHAI 001 Shroud “Spark” releases September 24, 2026, for $140 through Nike SNKRS, Converse, and select retailers.

Converse SHAI 001 Shroud “Shock” Releases September 24th

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is getting another take on his signature model with the Converse SHAI 001 Shroud “Shock.” The September release keeps the shoe almost entirely black, then hides its brightest detail underneath a zippered cover across the upper.

That shroud runs over the lacing system and gives the SHAI 001 a much smoother profile when fully closed. Unzipping it exposes a neon green tongue and matching laces underneath, with black embroidery adding contrast. The rest of the upper stays dark, using different materials and finishes across the toe, side panels, and collar instead of relying on extra color.

Glossy black pieces around the heel stand out against the softer finish used through most of the shoe. The midsole also stays black, while the outsole uses a full rubber traction pattern with a small green logo near the heel.

Kith x ASICS Gel-Lyte III Remastered “Salmon Toe” Releases September 28th

Ronnie Fieg and ASICS are bringing the Gel-Lyte III “Salmon Toe” back for Kith’s 15th anniversary, revisiting one of the pairs most closely tied to the brand’s early years. The colorway first showed up in 2011 around the opening of Kith’s original New York store and has stayed connected to Fieg ever since.

That first pair released in September 2011, then Kith came back to the idea a few years later with the “Salmon Toe 2.0” in 2016. Another version followed in 2021 on the Gel-Lyte V as part of the brand’s 10th anniversary.

For 2026, the familiar navy, white, and salmon setup is back again. Navy takes over most of the upper, white lands on the ASICS branding and midsole, and soft salmon suede wraps the toe just like it did on the original.

The shoe is also part of ASICS’ Remastered series, so the shape has been adjusted to feel closer to older Gel-Lyte III pairs. The changes include tweaks to the paneling, logo placement, height, and tooling, all with the goal of getting the overall build closer to the original.

The return was revealed in Kith: The Footwear Archive, a 444-page book made with Assouline that covers 1,849 Kith footwear collaborations across 32 brands.

The Kith x ASICS Gel-Lyte III Remastered “Salmon Toe” releases September 28, 2026 through Kith stores and Kith online.

KITH: The Footwear Archive Celebrates 15 Years of Sneaker History

KITH is celebrating 15 years by opening up its sneaker history in a much bigger way. Ronnie Fieg has announced KITH: The Footwear Archive, a new Assouline book covering hundreds of releases, samples, and unreleased ideas from the brand’s first decade and a half.

More than 700 publicly released pairs are included in the book, with each shoe photographed again specifically for the project. The archive covers KITH’s long list of footwear collaborations and brings years of projects together in one place instead of simply pulling from old campaign photos.

A large section of the book is also dedicated to samples that never reached stores. That includes early versions, alternate designs, and other pairs that stayed inside KITH’s archive. Preview images show unreleased takes on the Nike Pippen 1, Maestro 2 High, LeBron 15, Air Force 1, BAPE STA, New Balance 997, New Balance 530, and several other models.

Fans in New York will get a chance to see the shoes outside the pages of the book as well. KITH is holding an exhibition at 25 Kent Avenue in Brooklyn from September 25 through September 27, with every pair featured in the archive scheduled to be displayed.

KITH: The Footwear Archive Classic Edition releases September 30, 2026, at KITH stores worldwide, followed by Assouline boutiques on December 9. The Ultimate Edition also releases September 30 and comes housed in a leather monogram clamshell with Ronnie Fieg’s signature. Only 300 copies will be available.

Anthony Edwards x adidas Superstar “Cold Blooded” Releases September 18th

adidas has a lot going on around the start of Anthony Edwards’ next signature run, with the AE 3 only being one part of it. The AE3 Mule is also on the way, while his Superstar series keeps moving alongside it and gives Edwards a presence outside of basketball performance shoes too.

The latest Superstar is the “Cold Blooded” colorway, which uses the same icy look tied to the debut AE 3. Light blue covers most of the shoe, while silver detailing adds contrast throughout. The color setup connects back to Edwards and Minnesota, while also fitting the cold-blooded theme that has followed his on-court personality.

This pair also makes a small change to the Superstar’s usual look. Instead of the standard textured shell toe, the front is smoother and finished in glossy, semi-translucent rubber. The rest of the shoe stays close to the familiar Superstar shape.

The Anthony Edwards x adidas Superstar “Cold Blooded” releases September 18, 2026, in men’s sizing for $110 through adidas.

Union LA x Nike Dunk Low “Bamboo” First Look

Union and Nike are bringing the Dunk Low back into the mix with a new two-pair release planned for Fall 2026. One of the colorways is the “Bamboo” pair, giving Chris Gibbs and the Union team another shot at the Dunk after their earlier Passport Pack release.

This version keeps things much simpler than the previous project. The upper is covered in olive suede, with exposed stitching near the toe and a small Union tag placed just above it. The biggest change comes at the heel, which folds down so the shoe can also be worn more like a mule.

The “Bamboo” colorway is part of the same capsule as a “Black” pair, with both using the Dunk Low as the base. Union has worked across several Nike and Jordan models over the years, including the Air Jordan 1, Air Jordan 4, Cortez, and Field General.

The Union x Nike Dunk Low “Bamboo” is expected to release in Fall 2026 through Union Los Angeles, SNKRS, and select retailers. The shoe will be available in men’s sizing for $135.

Nike Air Bakin OG “Varsity Red” Releases September 29th

UPDATE 9/14/26: The Nike Air Bakin OG “Varsity Red” officially returns September 29, 2026. The pair will retail for $170 and will be available through SNKRS and select retailers.

Original Story 6/2/26:
The Nike Air Bakin “Varsity Red” is set for a Fall 2026 return, resurrecting a bold late-’90s Nike Basketball release complete with a Miami-inspired color scheme.

Designed by Eric Avar, the Nike Air Bakin saw its greatest fame on the feet of Tim Hardaway while he played for the Miami Heat. Featuring a bulky silhouette, ribbed upper, and aggressive paneling the Air Bakin helped pave the way for a time where Nike basketball shoes were huge and as menacing off the court as they were on.

This “Varsity Red” colorway channels that same spirit, featuring a black foundation, vibrant red accents, and yellow laces that unmistakably evoke Miami. White trim adds contrast through the side panels, while the black molded sections give the shoe its familiar layered look. Nike Air branding shows up on the heel in red as well, taking the place of the controversial wavy logo from the first release.

Nike stays true to the OG silhouette with an ample high-cut upper, exposed heel Air cushioning, pull tabs and that chunky outsole design that gave the Air Bakin its signature attitude. Adding to the throwback vibe, the outsole sports a red cutout with yellow Nike branding.

Nike Air Bakin Varsity Red 2026 Release Date

The Nike Air Bakin “Varsity Red” is set to release September 29, 2026 through select retailers and SNKRS. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price tag is set at $170 USD.

Nike Kobe 3 Protro “Orca” Releases September 26th

Nike is going back to the original high-top shape for the Kobe 3 Protro, keeping the 2007 look intact while still using the performance updates added to the newer Protro releases. The low-top has been getting most of the attention lately, so this gives the model a more familiar look again for anyone who preferred the original cut.

The “Orca” keeps things close to the pair people already know, using a black, white, and gold color setup across the shoe. Black takes over most of the upper, with leather around the toe and a mix of mesh and TPU forming the web-like panels through the sides and ankle.

White breaks up the darker upper around the heel, while gold Kobe sheath logos appear on the tongue and back. Nothing feels overdone here, and the color blocking still fits the killer whale look that gave the “Orca” its name.

UNheardof Turns Founder’s Dog Otto Into an adidas Adistar Control 5

UNheardof is continuing its run of adidas collaborations with a new Adistar Control 5 inspired by founder Phil Lipschutz’s 12-year-old dog, Otto. The pair follows the Cincinnati retailer’s earlier “Piggy Runner” projects and turns the focus to dog adoption, encouraging people to consider shelters instead of puppy mills.

The shoe uses black pony hair across the upper with white Three Stripes, matching Otto’s coat. A pink tongue is meant to resemble a dog’s tongue and includes a stitched portrait of Otto on the left shoe. There is even a squeaker built into the top of the tongue, adding another playful detail tied directly to the theme.

Paw prints appear on the toe and right heel, while the insoles show Otto alongside some of his favorite toys. Green “Doggy Runner” embroidery lands across the heels with reflective 3M detailing underneath. The inner tongues read “Ok Sit” and “Ok, Give Me Paw,” while the multicolor outsole includes a small yellow section that continues the dog-inspired humor.

The UNheardof x adidas Adistar Control 5 “Doggy Runner” will release during Holiday 2026 exclusively through UNheardof in limited quantities. Adult sizing will be available along with kids pairs, which are being called the “Puppy Runner.”

Pokémon x adidas 8-Ball Jackets Release for 30th Anniversary

The popular Pokémon x adidas collaboration is getting larger than just sneakers. This time around, the partnership will debut on a trio of leather 8-ball jackets that sport Charizard, Gengar and more Pokémon graphics.

Featuring tufted illustrations of each character throughout, each jacket highlights more texture than your standard printed graphic. Available now at Dick’s Sporting Goods for $280 and will be released by adidas later this year.

The Pokémon x adidas footwear collection is still scheduled to release on September 22, 2026.

Caitlin Clark’s Nike Caitlin 1 Collection Revealed

Nike Basketball has officially revealed Caitlin Clark’s first full signature collection, with the Nike Caitlin 1 and matching apparel set to release during Fall/Holiday 2026.

The collection builds around Clark’s first signature shoe while adding 18 apparel pieces tied to her style and basketball background. The clothing lineup includes tracksuits, sweats, on-court gear, and other performance pieces. Nike also worked parts of Clark’s story into the designs, including a concrete-inspired pattern based on a driveway and repeated use of her personal logos.

Several pieces from the collection have already appeared during the 2026 WNBA season, with Clark wearing select Aero-FIT and Standard Issue Stretch apparel on and off the court. The main focus, however, remains the Caitlin 1, which Nike first introduced in a tonal “Caitlin Blue” colorway before showing several additional versions.

Designed by Nike Basketball’s Ben Nethongkome and Alex Zerzan, the Caitlin 1 was built around Clark’s quick movement and ability to create space. The low-cut shoe uses a new Opticast upper with polyurethane nodes placed at different heights to help reduce drag while keeping the shoe lightweight.

Underfoot, the Caitlin 1 combines a forefoot Air Zoom Turbo unit with Cushlon cushioning for a mix of responsiveness and comfort. A midfoot shank adds support, while the outsole uses a lightweight, multidirectional traction pattern made for quick changes of direction.

Nike is also bringing the Caitlin 1 to younger players for the first time. Big Kids and Little Kids versions have been adjusted for better flexibility, comfort, and overall fit rather than simply shrinking down the adult model.

Along with “Caitlin Blue,” upcoming Caitlin 1 colorways include “Warning Code,” “Midnight Fever,” “Purple Venom,” “Ice Cold,” and “Cave Stone.”

The Nike Caitlin 1 and Caitlin Clark Signature Collection will release globally on October 1, 2026. The shoe will be available in family sizing, with prices ranging from $90 to $140.

New Balance 983 “Yellow/Red” Releases October 1st

New Balance is giving the 983 a much louder look for fall, covering the retro-inspired runner in several shades of yellow with red and grey worked in throughout. The model already pulls heavily from early-2000s performance footwear, and this colorway leans into that look with plenty of layered panels and exposed cushioning.

Olive mesh sits underneath most of the upper, with pale yellow and lime panels layered over the top. Grey laces, lining, and “N” logos break up the brighter colors, while the mix of tones gives the shoe that busy early-2000s runner look.

Red is used more sparingly, but it stands out around the heel and across the exposed ABZORB SBS cushioning pods. A sculpted yellow dual-density midsole sits underneath, followed by a dark grey rubber outsole with additional red sections. Reflective material is also built into the “N” logos and parts of the heel, which light up with a silver-white finish when hit by direct light.

The New Balance 983 “Yellow/Red” releases October 1, 2026 via NewBalance.com and select retailers. Retail is set at $160.

Nike Air Max 95 Suede “Dark Brown/Grey Olive” Trades Mesh for Fall Suede

Nike is reworking the Air Max 95 for Fall 2026 with a mostly suede upper in place of the usual mesh.

Most of the upper is covered in shaggy suede. Lighter Phantom and beige tones sit up top, while olive and brown shades take over the lower layers. A Dark Hazel stripe runs through the middle and gives the shoe most of its contrast.

Dusty Olive shows up around the laces and lower side panels, with Yellow Green used more sparingly on the heel Swoosh, tongue branding, and details near the visible Air units. White lace loops and lining break up the darker tones without changing the overall earthy look.

A brown midsole sits above a black rubber outsole, with an olive section through the midfoot. The familiar Air Max 95 cushioning stays in place, with visible Air in the forefoot and heel.

The Nike Air Max 95 “Dark Hazel/Dusty Olive” releases in Fall 2026 for $190.

Air Jordan 1 Low “Midnight Spruce” Goes Deep Green for Fall 2026

Another Air Jordan 1 Low is set for Fall 2026, with Jordan Brand using “Midnight Spruce” and “Pale Ivory” across the low-top.

Pale Ivory leather makes up the base of the upper. Midnight Spruce suede covers the overlays, while matching textile sections bring in a little more texture. The color blocking stays close to what we usually see on the Air Jordan 1 Low, just with a darker green finish for the season.

The shoe sits on an off-white midsole with a Black rubber outsole underneath. Nothing about the design is overworked, with the cream, green, and black doing most of the work.

The Air Jordan 1 Low “Midnight Spruce” releases in Fall 2026 through Nike and select Jordan Brand retailers.
