Devin Booker Unveils Nike Book 2 “Sunburst” PE During Play-In

Devin Booker brought a fresh Player Exclusive to the floor for the Play-In, debuting the Nike Book 2 “Sunburst” PE in a strong Phoenix Suns-inspired color scheme. Even with the Suns taking a tough loss, the new pair quickly stood out thanks to its rich purple base and bright orange accents.

The Nike Book 2 “Sunburst” PE keeps Booker’s next signature model looking sharp and game-ready. A textured purple upper gives the shoe a molded, almost rugged feel, while orange lands on the Swoosh, lace details, tongue branding, and heel pull tab. An icy outsole finishes the pair with a clean contrast that helps the colors pop even more.

Phoenix energy runs through the entire design, making this one of the more natural PE colorways tied to Booker’s on-court identity. The mix of purple and orange is instantly recognizable, and the low-cut shape keeps the model in line with the sleek performance look that helped make his first signature shoe such a hit.

The Nike Book 2 “Sunburst” PE has not been confirmed for a retail release. That said, early Devin Booker pairs have shown that exclusives can always turn into public drops later, so this one is still worth watching closely.

LaMelo Ball’s PUMA MB.05 Lo “Flourish” Releases May 15th

LaMelo Ball used one of the biggest games of his career to introduce the PUMA MB.05 Lo “Flourish”, stepping on the floor in a loud slime green colorway that instantly stole attention. Charlotte’s win over Miami gave the moment even more weight, especially with Ball delivering late when the Hornets needed him most.

The PUMA MB.05 Lo pushes his signature line in a sharper direction instead of simply trimming down the high-top version. This low-cut build brings a redesigned upper, a more dramatic shroud setup, and layered detailing that gives the shoe a textured, almost tattoo-like look. Extra containment around the forefoot also helps separate it from earlier low-top versions in the MB series.

Bright green shades cover nearly the entire shoe, giving the pair the same flashy energy that has become part of LaMelo’s on-court identity. The upper mixes molded shapes, stitched graphics, and aggressive lines, while the heel and midsole keep the futuristic design language that has defined the MB franchise. “Rare” style signature details remain intact, but this pair feels more evolved than a simple seasonal update.

The MB.05 Lo first appeared in a stripped-down form around All-Star Weekend, but the “Flourish” colorway looks like the model’s true arrival. This version feels more complete, more expressive, and more in line with the bold design choices fans expect from LaMelo Ball’s PUMA Basketball line.

PUMA will release the LaMelo Ball x PUMA MB.05 Lo “Flourish” on May 15th in adult and grade school sizing through select retailers and PUMA.com.

Reebok Shaqnosis Low “Muted Mauve” Arrives In Soft Pink And Purple Tones

The Reebok Shaqnosis Low “Muted Mauve” takes a familiar Shaq model and flips the mood completely. Instead of coming off bold and heavy, this pair leans softer with Muted Mauve, Playful Pink, and Dream Purple, giving the low-top a look that feels easier to wear while still holding onto its identity.

Muted mauve and dream purple cover the heel, toe, collar, and outsole, while playful pink suede moves across the upper and eyestay. Dark grey works through the tongue, lining, and midfoot, which gives the lighter shades something to play off. That balance helps the color blocking feel natural, not forced, and that matters on a shoe like this.

The shape still reads Shaqnosis Low right away thanks to the curved side panels and chunky sculpted build. Cream and pale pink details break up the midsole with a marbled finish, while Reebok branding hits the tongue, side panel, and outsole. Shaq’s Dunkman logo also shows up on the tongue and bottom, which keeps the signature touch intact.

Underneath, the outsole mixes mauve, purple, pink, and cream with zigzag traction and visible Hexalite cushioning windows. It is a softer take, no question, but the shoe still has presence.

The Reebok Shaqnosis Low “Muted Mauve” is available now via Target.com.

adidas F50 Tunit “Pink” Brings Bold Y2K Energy To Summer 2026

The adidas F50 Tunit “Pink” leans all the way into its statement look with a glossy upper covered in rich pink tones from heel to toe. Tonal Three Stripes blend into the side panels, while darker pink graphic lines wrap the forefoot and midfoot to give the design more movement. A crisp “+F50” hit near the toe ties the pair back to its football roots and gives the shoe some added identity.

The trim lace cover accentuates the silhouette further into that familiar early-2000s performance adidas realm. Circular embossed logo caps off the flap while darker adidas branding hits the heel for a nice pop on top of the vivid base color. Built into the insole is “CONSORTIUM” branding along with additional co-branding details that give this release an extra something than your average inline release.

As mentioned, the tooling is definitely one of the standout aspects of the shoe. Modular cushioning made up of hollow pill-like pods stretches across the sole offering up a futuristic silhouette that’s aggressive and experimental all at once. Nearly full-pink outsole ties the whole color scheme together with minimal tonal shading to help break things up.

The shoe feels like a perfect mix of archived football design and modern fashion styling. That monochromatic finish does most of the talking, but the shape, branding, and tech-heavy sole help this pair leave a strong impression.

Expect the adidas F50 Tunit “Pink” to release in Summer 2026 via adidas.com and select retailers for $180.

adidas Adislide Enters The Slide Market With A Comfort-First Design

adidas has a new slide in rotation, and it showed up with almost no noise. The adidas Adislide has quietly started popping up through global adidas channels and select retailers overseas, giving the brand another easy, comfort-first option for everyday wear. Its laceless build keeps things simple, but the overall design still feels a little more considered than your average house slide.

Product descriptions list the adidas Adislide being constructed of long-lasting synthetic fabrics. The semi-transparent nature of the shoe also provides it with a softer, slightly futuristic appeal. Initial colorways feature Light Pink, Core Black, Crew Blue, and Bold Green. This gives the debut of the shoe a nice balance of quiet and loud options from the start.

The footbed uses a pattern of raised bumps that helps create a massaging feel underfoot, which makes sense for recovery after training or just throwing something on around the house. Underneath, the outsole uses a similar texture to add grip and keep the ride steady.

A velcro strap across the forefoot gives the pair a more adjustable fit, which is a smart touch on a slide like this. It helps lock things in a bit better without making the design feel overbuilt.

The adidas Adislide is available now in the “Black” and “Pink” colorways via adidas.com and select retailers for $60 and $65, respectively.

adidas Superstar Pointless Journey Pack By atmos and Daiki Tsuneta Releases April 25th

adidas is giving the Superstar another collaborative push, this time through a Tokyo-driven project with atmos and Daiki Tsuneta. Known as the frontman of King Gnu, Tsuneta reunites with atmos and adidas for a second release, and this one keeps the focus on the shell toe with a clean look that still feels distinct.

The atmos x Daiki Tsuneta x adidas Superstar Pointless Journey Pack includes two grey-based makeups, one in DGH Solid Grey and the other in Clear Onix. Both pairs stay within the same muted lane. White Three Stripes branding breaks up the upper nicely, while the blue heel tab adds just enough color to keep things interesting.

The removable long tongues do a lot of the heavy lifting here. That detail gives the shoes a slightly more styled and personal feel without taking away from the Superstar’s familiar shape. Nothing about this feels bloated, and that’s what allows the pack to work so effortlessly from head to sole.

Available April 25, 2026 via atmos.com, the atmos x Daiki Tsuneta x adidas Superstar Pointless Journey Pack will retail for ¥19,800 JPY (approximately $125 USD).

If you’re a fan of lowkey collabs with small touches that actually mean something, this pack is easy to remember.

Erling Haaland x Nike Phantom 6 Low SE Goes Bright In “Watermelon” Style

Erling Haaland’s newest Nike Phantom 6 Low PE goes hard on color, teaming Hot Punch with Green Strike. The combo has already earned a “watermelon” nickname from fans on social media. The contrast between the pink-red forefoot and vibrant green collar and heel gives the shoe explosive energy. Black trim around the Swoosh, heel overlay and branding helps add definition to the look.

Nike doesn’t let the bold color choice stop it from adding performance-minded features. The Phantom 6 Low comes equipped with a Gripknit upper built for touch and control, while the Cyclone 360 plate underfoot is designed to support quick cuts and fast movement. From the images, the shape stays sleek and close to the foot, giving the pair that streamlined speed-boot look without losing its aggressive edge.

Haaland’s personal branding is worked in throughout the release. His radial logo appears on the heel spine, the insoles, and the matching nylon bag included with the pair. The insole also carries a message that adds a more personal touch: “Remember why you started playing football.” That detail gives the boot more meaning beyond the bright color treatment and signature stamp.

This pair stands out as one of the louder football launches on Nike’s calendar this year. Between the eye-catching “Hot Punch/Green Strike-Black” colorway, Haaland-specific details, and the performance setup underneath, this pair feels built to grab attention the second it hits the pitch.

The Erling Haaland x Nike Phantom 6 Low is set for April 20, 2026 via Nike.com and select retailers for $280 USD.

New Balance 2010 “Pastel Green” Arrives With Soft Suede And Retro Runner Energy

The New Balance 2010 “Pastel Green” is set for Summer 2026, and this one feels easy on the eyes right away. The upper mixes soft green suede with black underlays and airy mesh, which gives the shoe a nice balance between light and dark. Nothing feels too sharp or too loud. The pink “N” logo on the side, outlined in grey, adds just enough pop without taking over the whole design.

The bottom half does a lot of the work here, too. A pale yellow midsole gives the pair that slightly aged look, but it does not come off forced. It just fits. Around the heel, the ABZORB pods bring in dusty pink and light blue, and those hits give the shoe a little more charm. White laces and lining keep the upper crisp. The black outsole balances everything below.

The silhouette still embodies that hard edged early-2000s runner vibe, but the softer colorway definitely alters the feel. Far less aggressive and much more casual. That is probably what makes this pair stand out. It has enough going on to catch your eye, but it still looks like the kind of shoe you could wear often without getting tired of it.

The New Balance 2010 “Pastel Green” releases in Summer 2026 via NewBalance.com and select retailers for $160.

Estudio Niksen Brings Quiet Design To The Saucony Trainer 80

Estudio Niksen is stepping into footwear with its first Saucony collaboration, using the Trainer 80 as the base for a cleaner and more understated take. Instead of chasing loud color blocking or heavy branding, the project leans into a softer mood shaped by slower living, outdoor references, and everyday wearability.

Earthy brown tones set the direction across the upper, while the material mix adds texture without making the shoe feel overworked. Hairy suede overlays, ripstop mesh panels, and leather-lined interiors give the pair more depth, and the overall build shifts the Trainer 80 away from its original running identity into something easier to place in a modern lifestyle setting.

Small details carry the collaboration without overwhelming it. Zig-zag stitching, contrast trim, a hand-drawn river logo, and a vintage-style co-branded tongue tag all add character in a controlled way. Saucony and Estudio Niksen also include interchangeable laces and a custom sockliner, giving the release a little more flexibility without changing its calm design language.

The Estudio Niksen x Saucony Trainer 80 is set for a global release on April 30th for $120. This marks the first footwear project from Niksen, and it lands as one of the more quietly confident collaborations on the calendar.

H. Moser & Cie x Reebok Unveil $40,000 Pump Streamliner Watch

H. Moser & Cie and Reebok are teaming up, and on paper it almost sounds like a joke. One name belongs to Swiss watchmaking, the other to sneaker history, so seeing them share a project is strange right away. That odd mix is the whole reason this works. It does not feel like a formula collab built around logos. It feels like two totally different worlds meeting in the middle and coming up with something neither brand would make on its own.

The Streamliner Pump gets the point across with a detail sneaker fans will catch instantly. H. Moser & Cie removed the normal watch crown and swapped in Reebok’s orange Pump button, which gives the piece its entire character. That move is playful, but it does not cheapen the watch. If anything, it keeps the collaboration from feeling stiff or overly precious. Reebok’s influence is easy to spot, and that makes the whole thing feel a lot more honest.

The price tells you this is not meant for casual buyers. The H. Moser & Cie x Reebok Streamliner Pump Watch comes in at 31,356 Swiss francs, or around $40,000 USD and limited to just 250 units. This is deep collector territory, aimed at people who care about rare design and niche crossovers. Anyone interested in one can inquire now through h-moser.com

Bronny James B9 Logo Hits Trademark Trouble With Nike

Nike has hit an unexpected hurdle with Bronny James’ signature branding, as the United States Patent and Trademark Office denied the company’s trademark application for his “B9” logo. The ruling points to a likely conflict with an existing registered mark, creating an early setback for a branding push that had already started appearing on product.

Bronny’s proposed logo combines a lowercase “b” with the number 9 in the middle, a formula that fits the usual athlete-logo playbook. The issue is that officials believe it is too close to branding already tied to Back9 Golf Apparel. Another name in the mix, The Back Nine Golf, reportedly uses branding that also raises similar concerns, making the situation even more complicated for Nike.

That puts Nike in a tricky position because shoes featuring Bronny’s logo have already been released, and more launches were expected to follow. A denied trademark does not automatically erase the branding from the public eye, but it does make long-term rollout plans much harder to lock in.

Nike now has two clear options moving forward. The brand can either go back and develop a new logo for Bronny James or attempt to resolve the matter through an agreement with the companies tied to the existing marks. For now, Bronny’s signature identity looks far from settled.

Nike V5 RNR “Jackie Robinson Day” Releases April 15th

UPDATE 4/14/26: The Nike V5 RNR “Jackie Robinson” is scheduled to release on April 15th via SNKRS in adult sizing for $100. The drop arrives in honor of Major League Baseball’s Jackie Robinson Day.

Original Story 3/17/26:
Nike is tapping into baseball history for Spring 2026, adding a clean tribute to its retro runner lineup. The Nike V5 RNR “Jackie Robinson Day” arrives as a subtle nod to the MLB legend, timed perfectly with the league’s annual April 15th celebration.

The pair keeps things understated with a black leather and mesh upper, paired with a glossy patent leather toe and supportive overlays. White accents hit the laces, branding, and Swoosh backing, creating contrast without overpowering the design. Underfoot, an off-white midsole softens the look, while a speckled black outsole adds a slight baseball-inspired touch.

Details tied to Jackie Robinson are kept minimal but meaningful. A white “42” appears on the tongue above a small Swoosh, honoring his iconic number. Around the heel, a diamond-shaped logo further connects the shoe to the sport’s heritage.

The Nike V5 RNR “Jackie Robinson Day” is scheduled to release on April 15, 2026, aligning with the annual league-wide tribute. It will be available in unisex sizing for $100 via Nike.com and select retailers.

Hellstar Founder Seanie Reveals Toddler adidas Superstar

Hellstar founder Seanie has teased a toddler-sized version of the brand’s adidas Superstar, bringing the label’s signature look to a much smaller pair. The mini shoe appears to mirror Hellstar’s debut Superstar colorway, keeping the same chaotic energy that helped the original release stand out.

Flame-inspired side panels, distressed Three Stripes, and graffiti-style details all carry over to the toddler edition. The biggest change comes from the fuzzy pink laces, which give the shoe a softer and more playful twist without losing the identity of the adult pair. Even in this smaller format, the design still feels unmistakably Hellstar.

The pair may be a personal one-off rather than part of a wider release. Seanie’s post suggests the toddler Superstar could have been made for his daughter, which would explain why no launch details have been shared yet. Still, the sighting adds another interesting layer to Hellstar’s growing adidas partnership.

For now, there is no word on a public release for the Hellstar x adidas Superstar toddler pair. If that changes, this will easily be one of the more unexpected extensions of the collaboration.

Brazilian Label Quadro Creations Debuts The New Balance 2000S

Brazilian label Quadro Creations used its first runway show to introduce the New Balance 2000S, a new take on the ABZORB-powered 2000 that pushes the silhouette in a cleaner, more directional way. The shoe appeared in two launch looks, including a muted grey pair and a pale yellow finish, both styled with accessories that tied directly into the clothing shown on the runway.

The New Balance 2000S keeps the same sculpted sole unit from the standard 2000, but the upper moves in a different direction. A one-piece shell wraps across most of the shoe, replacing the usual layered build with a smoother shape that feels more stripped down. Mesh is limited to the lace area and collar, while the usual side branding is reduced to a smaller no-sew “N” placed closer to the forefoot.

That upper also brings in distressed texture, giving the shoe a worn, peeled-back effect across the outer shell. Quadro Creations added beaded and fabric details for the runway presentation, but those extras are not expected to be included on retail pairs. The overall result feels more fashion-driven without losing the technical identity of the 2000 underneath.

The New Balance 2000S does not have a confirmed release date or retail price yet. With the silhouette debuting during a Fall/Winter presentation, more details should arrive later this year.

Jason Crowe Jr. Signs Jordan Brand NIL Deal Ahead of 2026 Jordan Brand Classic

Jason Crowe Jr. is the latest prospect to sign a NIL deal with Jordan Brand and it couldn’t have come at a more perfect time. Crowe has developed some serious momentum this past year and it’s clear that Jordan Brand is making an early investment in him as one of the next faces you need to know.

The Lynwood, California native committed to Missouri earlier this spring and has continued to remain one of the premier prospects in the 2026 class. Crowe has landed five-star status as a 17-year-old guard and has consistently been mentioned as one of the best young prospects around. Stints with Team USA Basketball have only helped elevate his stock even more.

Crowe is also set to appear in the 2026 Jordan Brand Classic, which will be held in Torrance on Friday, April 17th. That detail makes this signing land with even more weight, especially with the brand shining a bigger light on the next generation before those players reach the college game in full.

Jordan Brand has been putting real energy into that pipeline lately. The brand opened Jordan Brand House in Inglewood back in February, adding another strong connection to an area that still matters to Michael Jordan’s larger legacy. Bringing Crowe into the fold keeps that strategy moving and gives the Jumpman another major name from Southern California to build around.

Jordan Brand Celebrates Azzi Fudd’s No. 1 WNBA Draft Moment With “One In Azzillion”

Azzi Fudd heard her name called first at the WNBA Draft and stepped into the pros with the kind of moment players chase for years. Jordan Brand moved right with it, unveiling a new campaign almost instantly. The ad leans into her star power with the line “One In Azzillion,” pairing the slogan with a slick visual that puts Fudd front and center.

UConn is where Fudd built the version of herself that made this feel inevitable. Her game always looked under control, even in huge spots. She could score, make tough shots look routine, and carry herself like someone built for the biggest stage. That mix helped turn her into one of the top guards in women’s college basketball.

Jordan Brand clearly sees more than a draft pick here. Fudd gives the company another young cornerstone in women’s hoops, and the timing of this campaign says plenty. She has the talent, the presence, and the kind of appeal that reaches beyond the floor.

Going No. 1 is a statement on its own. Fudd now enters the WNBA with real momentum and real expectations. She is not just starting a pro career. She is walking into the league as one of its newest headline names.
