A-Feeling x Saucony ProGrid Paramount Brings Back The “Science of Wow”

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

A-Feeling is beginning its next chapter with Saucony, reworking the Paramount through a mix of archival references and unexpected color. The collaboration releases through A-Feeling on June 28, 2026, then receives a global launch on July 2nd for $185.

Although Saucony introduced the Paramount in 2006, this version looks further back. Earthy browns anchor the upper, joined by brighter flashes that recall the busier palettes found on running shoes throughout the 1990s.

The original model’s open medial mesh remains a key part of the design. A-Feeling places a Three Rivers hangtag over that section, adding an unusual finishing detail without covering up what made the Paramount recognizable in the first place.

Saucony’s past also shows up on the box. Packaging borrows from the brand’s “Science of Wow” campaign, used during the early push behind its Grid cushioning technology.

The first release was handled with almost no reveal. A heavily pixelated product image appeared on A-Feeling’s new website, leaving early buyers to place an order before getting a clear look at the colorway.

Those who missed the surprise drop will get another chance on June 28 through A-Feeling. The A-Feeling x Saucony Paramount follows with its wider global release on July 2nd priced at $185.

Vans Authentic Fall 2026 Collection Expands With Four New Styles

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

The Vans Authentic returns for Fall 2026 in four distinct forms, led by the previously revealed “Ibiza” edition. Vans also reworks the low-top staple as a high-top, a boat shoe-inspired design, and a rugged Duck Canvas option. The complete Off The Wall collection is available now through Vans.com.

The “Ibiza” sits at the experimental end of the lineup, showing how far Vans can push the Authentic while keeping its familiar foundation in place. It follows the brand’s recent habit of using archival models as a starting point for less conventional designs.

Extra height reshapes the Authentic Hi without complicating the shoe’s stripped-down identity.

Two nautical versions borrow practical elements from traditional deck shoes. Exposed cords run around the collars, rawhide laces finish the uppers, and siped outsoles provide the grooved traction commonly used on wet surfaces.

Duck Canvas construction brings the collection back toward the Authentic’s workwear roots. The durable material suits a model long defined by simple construction, everyday wear, and its connection to Southern California skate culture.

All four Vans Authentic Fall 2026 styles are available now as part of the Vans Off The Wall collection at Vans.com.

Nike Air Force 1 Low ’07 “Philadelphia” Releases July 11th

-

Philadelphia is getting its own Nike Air Force 1 Low ’07 in Summer 2026. The city-themed colorway releases July 11, 2026 through Nike and select retailers, with unisex sizing priced at $125.

Light Orewood Brown leather covers most of the upper, leaving room for the teal, gold, and deep blue accents to stand out. Shaggy teal suede lands on the tongue tags and heel tabs. The tongue carries “PHL” in deep blue script, while white Nike Air embroidery appears across the heel. A small “Philly, PA, USA” logo sits near the lateral heel.

The Swooshes are different on each side. Gold appears on the lateral side over a teal backing, while the medial side uses deep blue layered over gold. Thick white stitching runs around both logos, adding a rougher finish against the smoother leather panels.

More teal shows up inside the shoe, on the midsole AIR branding, and across the translucent outsole.

The Nike Air Force 1 Low ’07 “Philadelphia” releases July 11, 2026, at Nike.com and select retailers in stores and online. Retail is set at $125.

Official Photos of the Nike Cryoshot Tiempo Legend R10 “White/Metallic Gold”

By
Mario Briguglio

UPDATE 6/15/26: The official images of Ronaldinho’s Nike Cryoshot Tiempo Legend R10 “White/Metallic Gold” are now available below. They’re slated to drop in Summer 2026 with a $200 USD price tag. Stay tuned for more updates.

Original Story: 6/4/26:
As Nike gears up for the 2026 World Cup, their campaign is already deeply rooted in football nostalgia, with Ronaldinho receiving a standout tribute. The Nike Cryoshot Tiempo Legend R10 “White/Metallic Gold” reworks his iconic “Touch of Gold” Tiempo with a lifestyle filter while maintaining aesthetic nods to his Nike Football glory days.

Slated to launch Summer 2026, they come in a sleek White and Metallic Gold colorway and are priced at $210 USD. Up top, things remain minimalistic with seamless white leather used on the entire upper, as well as quilted paneling similar to what you would see on a traditional Tiempo. Metallic Gold Swooshes, tongue overlays, and heel tabs reminisce on that luxurious feel of the original sneakers from back in the mid-2000s.

The tongues prominently feature Ronaldinho’s R10 branding, presenting the “R” on one shoe and the “10” on the other. Embossed details around the heel along with small gold star accents give the shoe another layer to the tribute without overcrowding the shoe.

Nike evolves the base with Cryoshot tooling underneath for a modern silhouette that’s friendlier for play outside. Translucent panels on the sole and white midsole along with gold accents underneath tie in the uppers classic cues with a fresher feel.

Ronaldinho stands out as one of Nike Football’s most cherished nostalgic figures due to his uninhibited, inventive, and unmatched way of playing. This launch encapsulates that same magic by revisiting a golden-era silhouette and weaving it into Nike’s bigger 2026 World Cup narrative.

The Nike Cryoshot Tiempo Legend R10 “White/Metallic Gold” is expected to release in Summer 2026 at select retailers and Nike.com, priced at $200 USD.

Kids’ Nike Kobe 4 “Draft Day Lakers” Gets A Standalone Release

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Nike will drop the Kobe 4 Protro “Draft Day” Lakers as a standalone sneaker from the rest of its blind-box set, according to official retailer images that have recently surfaced. Appearing in an LA-inspired colorway, June 26, 2026 will see the release debut in kids’ sizes exclusively for $122.

The original Kobe 4 Protro “Draft Day” Pack alluded to Kobe Bryant being drafted in 1996 via colorways representing each of the 13 teams who selected before him. The Lakers would eventually pick Kobe off the board via a draft-night trade with the Charlotte Hornets to kick off 20 fruitful seasons together in Los Angeles that will forever be remembered as part of the franchise’s legacy.

Constructed over Lakers Gold on the upper, the stand-alone model features purple Swooshes with white trim. Yellow and purple clash throughout the outsole in a random, camouflage-like pattern reminiscent of previous Kobe 4 colorways while still staying true to the team’s color scheme.

For the kids versions, they will not come with the ping-pong ball graphics on the insoles, while the area behind the tongues remain the same ads the others from the collection.

The Nike Kobe 4 Protro “Draft Day” Lakers will be available for kids on June 26, 2026, priced at $122 from select shops and SNKRS. Another shoe, besides this one, will also be released separately, not as part of a blind box.

Nike Book 2 “Just Book” Releases June 26th

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Devin Booker has a new silhouette dubbed the Nike Book 2 “Just Book” that will release June 26, 2026 for $155. Spotted first on Booker playing games, the royal blue colorway seamlessly transitions one of Don C’s most iconic Air Jordan designs into Booker’s signature series.

Quilted panels on the upper create the clearest homage to the Just Don Air Jordan 2. Don C implemented quilted construction along with premium materials and tonal color blocking to enhance the AJ2’s Italian luxury foundation, catapulting what is typically an underrated Jordan silhouette into a highly desirable collaboration.

Booker’s take certainly inherits that premium feel without directly replicating the sneaker itself. Blue coats nearly every visible surface area, giving the stitching and layered design elements opportunity to provide most of the contrast. The overall effect is trendier than your average team colorway, but the Book 2 stays true to form as a play-first basketball shoe.

The Nike Book 2 “Just Book” will be available June 26, 2026 in men’s sizes for $155. This colorway launches Nike.com, along with select Nike Basketball retailers.

Pharrell x adidas Virginia Vario Flat Earther “Suede Pack” Releases June 20th

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Pharrell and adidas are bringing the Virginia Vario Flat Earther back for summer, this time in suede. Royal Blue and Black colorways release June 20, 2026, for $140 each through adidas.com and select retailers.

The April launch used leather, but suede looks more at home on the shoe’s narrow, low-profile frame. Both pairs keep the layout simple. White Three Stripes and adidas branding stand out against the solid uppers, with more white worked into the traction underneath.

The Flat Earther is based on a lesser-known adidas yoga shoe from the 2000s. That slim, close-to-the-ground shape once felt fairly niche. Now it arrives at a time when ballet-inspired sneakers and thin-soled lifestyle models are getting more attention, giving the old design a more natural place in the current market.

Royal Blue adds a brighter option to the pack. Black is subtle and emphasizes the shape more. Besides the material change, adidas didn’t really add much else and this simple style works for the shoe.

The Pharrell x adidas Virginia Vario Flat Earther “Suede” colorways will launch in adult sizes on June 20, 2026 and retail for $140.

Giannis Antetokounmpo Debuts The Nike Giannis Freak 8 “Wolf Grey”

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Giannis Antetokounmpo shared the first official image of the Nike Giannis Freak 8 “Wolf Grey” colorway on Instagram. Expected to drop Fall 2026, the colorway will launch shortly after the brand reveals the new signature shoe sometime around August.

Wolf Grey spans across the upper, making its way down into the sculpted midsole. A faded camouflage-esque pattern is used to provide some texture while maintaining the largely tonal aesthetic.

Chrome accents on the Swooshes pop off the grey background, while Volt branding is speckled on the tongue. Those pieces of color are used minimally, allowing viewers to take in the new silhouette of the Freak 8.

It could very well be one of the first colorways to launch in association with Giannis’ eighth Nike Basketball shoe. The toned down color palette is a nice departure from the louder signature styles we usually see across his line, but expect more colors to be unveiled closer to the shoe’s release.

The Nike Giannis Freak 8 “Wolf Grey” is scheduled to debut Fall 2026 via Nike.com and select Nike Basketball retailers, priced at $115 USD.

Vince Carter’s Nike Shox BB4 OG “Black/Lapis” Returns Fall 2026

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

The Nike Shox BB4 OG “Black/Lapis” is coming back in Fall 2026, its first release since the 2019 retro. The original colorway will be available in men’s sizing for $190 through Nike.com and select retailers.

Black leather runs across the toe, tongue, and eyestays, while metallic silver covers most of the side panels and heel. Blue accents appear along the midsole and on the four exposed Shox columns in the rear. Dotted graphics near the toe and midfoot bring back another detail from the original design.

Eric Avar created the Shox BB4 for its 2000 launch, and was popularized by Vince Carter, using space suits and rocket ships as references. The influence comes through in the rounded upper, metallic finish, and mechanical-looking heel setup.

That exposed cushioning remains the part of the shoe people recognize first. Set beneath a black midsole with blue trim, the Shox pillars give the model the same early-2000s Nike Basketball look that separated it from other performance shoes of the era.

The Nike Shox BB4 OG “Black/Lapis” is expected to release August 28, 2026 at Nike.com and select Nike Sportswear retailers. The retail price is set at $190.

Nike Atelier Merc Premium Debuts July 2026

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Nike Atelier is bringing one of its athlete-focused projects to retail with the Merc Premium, a bold hybrid created alongside a custom collection for French soccer star Désiré Doué. The sneaker is expected to release in July 2026 for $450, though Nike has not announced an exact date or confirmed where it will be sold.

Doué’s one-of-one apparel was designed for his first World Cup appearance and will remain exclusive to the athlete. The footwear, however, gives the public a chance to own part of the project—albeit at a price that places it among Nike’s most expensive releases of the year.

The Nike Atelier Merc Premium revives the shape of Ronaldo’s original Mercurial R9 from 1998. Its black leather upper keeps the streamlined look of the legendary soccer boot, which has recently influenced several Nike Cryoshot releases.

Underfoot, Nike swaps the Mercurial’s field-ready setup for the oversized cushioning used on the Pegasus Premium. ReactX and ZoomX foams work alongside full-length Air Zoom underneath.

Neither a traditional soccer boot nor a true running shoe, the Merc Premium lands firmly in the lifestyle category. The combination feels intentionally unconventional, linking a late-1990s football icon with one of Nike’s most advanced modern cushioning systems.

The Nike Atelier Merc Premium “Black/Game Royal” is currently expected to launch in July 2026 for $450. Release details remain limited, with sizing, retailers, and a firm launch date still to be announced.

Travis Scott x Fragment x Air Jordan 1 Low Samples Revealed

By
Mario Briguglio
-

UPDATE 6/15/26: More Travis Scott x Fragment Air Jordan 1 Low samples have popped up. Following last week’s black/blue nubuck pair, two leather editions have now been unveiled. One is predominantly black with blue reverse Swooshes. The alternate colorway reverses the color scheme, offering a white shoe with blue overlays and black reverse Swooshes. As it stands, these sample shoes aren’t expected to hit the market.

Original Story 6/12/26:
We’re seeing yet another potentially eye-catching Travis Scott x Fragment x Air Jordan 1 Low surface, revealing an early peek at an unreleased option from the duo’s popular 2021 release.

This early “looksee” sample, surfaced by @xcverum and @curators.official, adopts a considerably darker aesthetic than the Travis Scott x Fragment x Air Jordan 1 Low that was officially released in White, Black, Royal, and Sail. Sporting royal blue suede on the toe box and heel, black nubuck overlays cover each area for a sleeker, darker aesthetic. White leather is used for both the heel tab and reverse Swoosh for crisp contrast while still maintaining recognizable Fragment and Cactus Jack DNA.

After recently seeing Hiroshi Fujiwara wearing an unreleased black/navy Travis Scott x Fragment Air Jordan 1 Low, some wondered if this sample was related. With the photos being too grainy to confirm an exact match, there’s a prevailing thought that Fujiwara’s version might showcase a double Swoosh.

As of this moment, this Travis Scott x Fragment Air Jordan 1 sample isn’t slated for a release. Still, given that prior Travis Scott samples have ultimately dropped, it’s not impossible.

Pharrell x adidas Jellyfish “White” Releases July 15th

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Chicago got an early crack at Pharrell’s adidas Jellyfish “Triple White” through a box truck release held ahead of the wider launch. The pair is currently expected to arrive July 15, 2026, through adidas and select retailers.

White takes over the shoe from top to bottom, covering its layered upper, oversized panels, and the extended framework running around the sides. It is a quieter colorway than most, which puts the attention back on the Jellyfish itself. There is plenty to look at, from the bulky proportions to the stacked pieces shaping its unusual profile.

Tonal finishes have already become a regular part of the model’s lineup. The “Triple White” pushes that idea to its simplest point without toning down the actual design.

The Pharrell x adidas Jellyfish “Triple White” is expected to release July 15, 2026. Pricing should remain at $300, although adidas has not confirmed the final launch details.

Timothee Chalamet Gets Exclusive BAPE STA “Knicks” Sneakers

By
Mario Briguglio
-

Timothée Chalamet joined the Knicks celebrations wearing Bape Sta sneakers made exclusively for him.

Chalamet’s Bape Sta sneakers were worn while courtside at Frost Bank Arena in a white patent leather colorway. Blue star branding adorned the shoes paying homage to New York as it mirrored the Knicks’ typical road color scheme.

It was later confirmed by Kevin Le, Brand Partnerships Manager at A Bathing Ape, that the sneakers were never an aftermarket customization. Instead, BAPE made them exclusively for Chalamet. They also unveiled a second colorway which bases the sneakers in black patent leather with contrast Knicks-inspired accents.

Apparently neither of the Timothée Chalamet x Bape Sta “Knicks” colorways will be seeing a retail release, remaining personal exclusives only.

Reebok ICECREAM Board Flip “Pale Cerulean” Returns 20 Years Later

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Reebok and ICECREAM are bringing back the Board Flip “Pale Cerulean,” a colorway last seen when the model debuted in 2006. The release starts July 2, 2026, through BBCICECREAM.com, followed by a wider launch on July 14.

Created during ICECREAM’s early years under Pharrell Williams and NIGO, the Board Flip sits firmly in the mid-2000s skate era. Its bulky build, loud colors, and cartoon branding reflected the crossover between skateboarding, music, and streetwear at the time.

The returning pair stays close to the original. Pale blue perforated leather covers most of the upper, with matching suede around the eyestays and a rubber toe cap up front. Yellow tongues and midsoles break up the tonal look.

ICECREAM’s Bones & Cones logo is stitched near the lateral heel. More branding appears on the tongue tags and heel tabs, while a skate-ready tread pattern finishes the outsole. The shoes will also come in custom packaging.

A Paris Fashion Week activation on June 24 will give the “Pale Cerulean” Board Flip an early spotlight. It is another reminder of how much of Pharrell and NIGO’s early ICECREAM work has found its way back into the current sneaker conversation.

The Reebok ICECREAM Board Flip “Pale Cerulean” releases July 2 at 10 AM ET on BBCICECREAM.com. Reebok.com and select retailers will carry the global release on July 14 at 10 AM ET.

Vans Authentic “Ibiza” Pack Now Available (June 2026)

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

UPDATE 6/1/26: The Vans Authentic “Ibiza” is available now through Vans.com for $110 in both black and blue. The red pair has yet to appear on the US site, but retailers including Extra Butter and Sneaker Politics currently have sizes available.

Original Story 5/26/26:
Greg Betty’s latest Vans work is already pushing the Authentic into weirder territory. Early images show a low-top pair covered in shaggy mixed-color panels, metal spikes, and small blue-toned studs. No release date, price, sizing, or retail plans have been confirmed, so this could still end up staying in sample territory.

The Greg Betty Vans Authentic keeps the familiar low-top build, but the usual simplicity is gone. Brown, rust, yellow, grey, and black fibers run across the upper with a rough, almost handmade finish. It looks worn-in from the jump, which feels intentional here.

Black suede covers the toe and side overlay, giving the hardware a darker base to sit on. Silver cone spikes wrap the toe and heel, while smaller jewel-like studs are scattered across the forefoot and side panel. The details lean punk without completely burying the Authentic shape underneath.

Cream laces, metal eyelets, and the small Vans side tag keep the shoe tied to the classic model. A floral-style trim around the collar adds an unexpected contrast against the rough fibers and spikes. The aged-looking midsole also plays into the same beat-up feel, instead of making the upper look like the only distressed part.

Greg Betty has become one of the few in-house sneaker designers that more dedicated fans actually recognize. His recent Vans work has helped make familiar silhouettes feel less predictable, and this pair follows that same lane without needing much explanation.

More details should arrive if the Greg Betty Vans Authentic moves past these early images. For now, it remains an unconfirmed look, but it is easily one of the more unusual Vans Authentic projects to surface in a while.

Nike By You Air Force 1 Low NYC “Knicks” Available Now

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Nike is marking the New York Knicks’ first NBA championship since 1973 with a customizable Air Force 1 Low. The Knicks-inspired “NYC” design is available now through Nike By You for $140.

Rush Blue and Safety Orange lead the customization palette, giving buyers several ways to build around the team’s familiar colors. Nike’s examples range from white-accented blue and orange pairs to bolder tonal versions with matching midsoles and outsoles.

The signature detail appears on the lateral heel, where large “NYC” lettering is crossed by a small Nike Swoosh. That city-specific graphic separates the design from a standard Nike By You release while keeping the Air Force 1’s classic leather construction intact.

Four sample colorways show how much the look can change within the limited palette. Available choices include contrasting Swooshes, white laces, gum rubber outsoles, white midsoles and fully tonal tooling.

The Nike By You Air Force 1 Low NYC “Knicks” is available now on Nike.com for $140. Each pair can be customized before ordering, allowing Knicks fans to create their own version of the championship-themed release.
