emmi x ASICS GEL-Cumulus 16 Brings Calm Neutrals To The Lineup

The emmi x ASICS GEL-Cumulus 16 lands with the kind of easy, neutral look that fits right into the Japanese label’s calm aesthetic.

emmi has always leaned toward soft palettes and clean lines, so this collab feels like something they’d design even without a brand partner. You get a mix of grey and beige mesh up top, brown hits underneath, and gentle grey overlays that settle the whole shoe into a really balanced place. It’s understated in the best way.

Official photos made the pair look a little green—almost like there was a filter on them—but in-hand shots clear that up fast. The actual color is a smooth, wearable beige that works with basically anything. The light beige touches along the sides and the exposed GEL cushioning keep things from feeling flat.

The emmi x ASICS GEL-Cumulus 16 is available now for $150. Get pairs through ASICS.com and selected retailers.

XBOX Crocs Releases November 24th

UPDATE 11/20/25: Crocs and Xbox are releasing their new controller-inspired Classic Clog, complete with joystick details and Xbox-themed Jibbitz. The collab officially releases at 12 PM ET on November 24th, exclusively on crocs.com.

Original Story 11/17/25:
The Crocs Classic Clog Xbox proves Microsoft is nowhere near slowing down, even with ongoing chatter around its hardware future. Instead, the brand is pushing into footwear with a design that blends gaming nostalgia and modern tech cues better than expected.

This Xbox Crocs clog keeps things bold with a stealthy black build accented by neon green hits. The standout feature sits right on the toe, where Crocs added a molded controller panel. It includes two joysticks, a D-pad, and the signature XYAB buttons. That’s the detail gamers will recognize instantly. Small bumpers along the front add a rugged, almost modded feel.

Compared to past novelty collabs, this Xbox Crocs collaboration feels more intentional. It channels the old Xbox 360 accessory energy but wraps it in the comfort Crocs fans expect. It’s weird, fun, and honestly way more wearable than early photos suggested.

Pairs are scheduled to drop overseas on November 20th, with U.S. retailers still waiting on confirmation. With demand already buzzing online, expect updates soon.

Awake NY x Air Jordan 6 Releases Fall 2026

The Awake NY x Air Jordan 6 is set to headline Fall 2026 with two standout colorways crafted to honor the model’s 35th Anniversary. The boutique continues its strong run with Jordan Brand by reworking the Air Jordan 6 in “Midnight Navy” and “Playful Pink,” each carrying the bold, expressive style Awake NY is known for.

Following its Air Jordan 5 “Racer Blue” and “Arctic Pink”, plus its earlier Air Ship releases, Awake NY now turns its attention to the Air Jordan 6 with “Midnight Navy” and “Playful Pink.” Both versions lean into the brand’s recognizable palette choices, giving the model a noticeably different energy than the Air Jordan 5. The shift mirrors how Awake NY often reshapes each retro through color and storytelling, a pattern that has helped build buzz without even revealing official images.

Each colorway taps into Awake NY’s previous palettes. The “Midnight Navy” pair mixes deep blues with Infrared and Game Royal accents, while the “Playful Pink” version layers soft and vibrant pink tones with touches of Infrared. Although final color blocking isn’t confirmed and early images are mockups, fans can expect Awake NY branding and special packaging to mark the anniversary drop.

Awake Air Jordan 6 Release Date

The Awake NY x Air Jordan 6 will release during Fall 2026 through Awake NY, select retailers, and SNKRS.

The atmos x New Balance 1906R “Blue Moon” Raffle Live

The atmos New Balance 1906R “Blue Moon” taps into the rising demand for darker, tech-driven runners. The look carries a moody energy that feels perfect for winter rotations.

This pair flips the brighter mood of the 2022 “White/Gold” colorway. It trades the clean upper for black mesh, metallic overlays, and sharp reflective lines. The contrast feels intentional and adds a modern edge to the 1906R’s classic frame.

Images highlight key features across the shoe. The outsole blends grey, off-white, and soft blue pods with segmented traction. The forefoot uses breathable mesh wrapped in glossy support panels. The N-Lock logo pops thanks to its blue outline. A sculpted heel cage sits above N-ERGY cushioning for a stable stance.

atmos is launching a Japan-only raffle for the “Blue Moon.” Entries close December 4th, with winners announced on December 6th. Join through atmos-tokyo.com.

Stone Island x New Balance Furon Elite v8 Releases December 2025

New Balance and Stone Island reunite, continuing a partnership that always blends performance tech with modern style.

Their latest take on the Furon Elite V8 pushes that formula further, bringing golden tones and subtle camo patterns that feel pulled from classic Stone Island outerwear. I like how the look stays clean, yet still feels experimental enough to catch your eye on the pitch.

The upper mixes alternating compass logos and New Balance text hits, creating a layered feel without drifting from that signature minimalist approach. Then, the silver heel flash shifts the whole vibe, adding a small but sharp bit of contrast. It’s a reminder of past SI collabs that used one standout detail to anchor the design.

The Stone Island x New Balance Furon Elite V8 launches December 8th for $225. Fans can expect pairs through NewBalance.com, StoneIsland.com, and select football retailers.

A$AP Rocky x PUMA Speedcat Available Now

The A$AP Rocky x PUMA Speedcat brings a new take on PUMA’s well-known racing shoe.

This version uses a mix of red, black, and ivory that ties back to early motorsport colors. The upper is made from distressed suede, giving the model a worn, track-ready look that fits the Speedcat’s roots.

PUMA also added several racing-style details. The heel comes with a carbon-fiber style print, while the red laces are wrapped twice for a layered look. Rocky’s signature sits on the tongue, and the outsole has a scorched finish that connects back to old track gear.

Each pair comes in a custom box made to look aged, with A$AP and PUMA branding across the packaging. The presentation follows the style used in other recent PUMA projects tied to past models.

The A$AP Rocky x PUMA Speedcat is available now for $130, only through the PUMA app. See official images and full launch info at PUMA.com.

ESENES Frog Clogs Bring Amphibian Energy For One Wild Release

ESENES Frog Clogs arrive with one of the brand’s most eccentric ideas yet, and fans of oddball footwear might call this their most charming experiment so far.

The bulky rubber sole teams with a green shell that instantly channels the playful spirit behind the design. It reminds me a bit of how Crocs once leaned into character themes, but ESENES takes the theatrical side a step further.

The faux frog eyes on the leather forefoot panel give these clogs real personality, while the brown crest shapes a nose-like detail that ties the look together. Inside, the nylon bootie adds a surprising comfort boost, which is a nice touch considering how wild the exterior appears.

ESENES has built a reputation for dropping left-field concepts, and this pair feels like another future cult favorite. The ESENES Frog Clogs arrive November 21, 2025, exclusively through esenesworldwide.com.

Ronaldinho x Nike Tiempo Legend FG “Touch of Gold” Returns For 20th Anniversary

UPDATE 11/20/25: The Ronaldinho x Nike Tiempo Legend “Touch of Gold” is returning for its 20th anniversary, with a global Holiday 2025 release. While we wait for the exact date, the newly added official photos give a fresh look at the iconic cleats.

Original Story 8/25/15:
On September 2nd, Nike will release an updated, limited edition Nike Tiempo Legend “Touch of Gold” boot to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the video that made its predecessor famous.

The new boot pays homage to the Nike Air Legend Tiempo that was released in 2005 via “Crossbar,” the first YouTube video to garner a million views.

Much like the original, Tiempo “Touch of Gold” features an all-white upper with exquisite golden accents and branding that honor its signature athlete, Ronaldinho. The new version includes a gradient treatment on the sole plate, transitioning from a clean white forefoot to a golden heel. Ronaldinho’s name spreads across both sole plates in the forefoot and his signature R10 logo appears on the classic Tiempo tongue.

Only 3,000 pairs of the Nike Tiempo Legend “Touch of Gold” have been made for its 2015 reissue and each is individually numbered on the lateral side of the heel.

Nike Tiempo Legend FG Touch of Gold 2025 Release Date

The Ronaldinho x Nike Tiempo Legend FG “Touch of Gold” will see a global release during Holiday 2025 at select retailers and Nike.com. The retail price tag is set at $275 USD.

Nike Air Max 95 “Smoke Grey” Sample Previews Spring 2026 Release

The Nike Air Max 95 “Smoke Grey” is already gaining attention months before its expected Spring 2026 debut. A new GS sample recently surfaced, giving the first real look at how Nike plans to expand its growing lineup of “big bubble” Air Max 95 styles. The early images come from @con_mcnaughton, who also confirmed that a men’s version is currently in development with upgraded materials.

This grade school sample leans into a grey-and-black palette across the signature layered upper. Smooth leather panels transition into breathable grey mesh, creating a clean gradient that fits the Air Max 95’s classic DNA. Soft grey accents hit the tongue, eyelets, and laces, while the visible Air units feature a faint blue tint for a subtle contrast. A full black midsole and outsole finish the build with a simple, sturdy look.

Pairs are circulating early, but Nike hasn’t finalized a release date. The colorway is tentatively lined up for March 2026, with more info expected once official product images appear. With both GS and men’s sizing planned, the model looks positioned to be a strong addition to the Air Max 95 catalog.

Pharrell and Louis Vuitton Unveil $85,000 Timberland Boots Made With 18K Gold

The Pharrell Louis Vuitton Timberland Boots might be the most outrageous remix of the work boot we’ve ever seen. Pharrell stretches the silhouette well beyond its blue-collar roots by covering LV’s monogram leather with 18k gold hardware. Instant luxury.

Each panel is wrapped in rich Italian leather, stamped with LV florals that feel more runway than jobsite. Even the Timberland tree logo gets a gold makeover on the heel, while classic red-and-yellow rope laces add a tiny nod to the original DNA. The gum outsole stays untouched, which weirdly grounds the whole thing.

Only 50 pairs exist, and every pair comes stored inside a custom Louis Vuitton trunk—very on-brand for Pharrell’s approach since taking over LV’s men’s division. This project also connects back to last year’s Timberland x LV anniversary pieces, showing Pharrell isn’t done exploring that lane.

Anyone trying to secure a pair won’t find them at retail. You’ll need a private seller, a collector channel, or serious connections. Which honestly matches the boot’s vibe.

Eleven’s Field General High launches as the silhouette’s first high-top iteration, in white and silver leather with black outsoles. Erica Sinclair’s LD-1000 debuts in purple, yellow, and white.

Nike Free Golf “Nelly Korda” Now Available (November 2025)

UPDATE 11/20/25: The Nike Free Golf “Nelly Korda” just dropped on Nike.com.

Original Story 8/4/25:
Nike has teamed with LPGA golf star Nelly Korda for a new standalone golf drop coming Summer 2025. The Nelly Korda x Nike Free Golf packs a pared-back White and Sail upper with pops of color throughout. A bold red and yellow Swoosh is featured on both sides, and a marbled outsole offers bright orange, red, and yellow traction blocks.

We also can’t get over the bright gold chain bracelet featured on the lateral collar. It’s studded with charming charms, including a smiley face, a tennis racket, and several Swoosh logos for good measure—adding a much-needed dose of personal, stylish flair. Korda also signed off on the red “Made By” inscription stamped on the insole.

The Nelly Korda x Nike Free Golf debuts November 20, 2025 at Nike.com and select retailers for $155.

The level of personalization certainly isn’t unprecedented from Nike and its athlete collaborations, but it’s among the most fun and expressive. We love this striking silo that mixes utility and whimsy in equal parts.

This Air Jordan 1 Mid Joins The “Flight Club” Collection

Jordan Brand is expanding its “Flight Club” lineup with a new Air Jordan 1 Mid, set to drop alongside the Air Jordan 4 “Flight Club”, which is scheduled for February 2026.

Earlier Flight Club styles often echoed Chicago colors, but this version breaks from that legacy. It uses Pale Ivory, Black, Muslin, and a sharp Racer Pink hit that gives the shoe some unexpected personality. I like when Jordan Brand takes a familiar theme and bends it a little.

Jumpman branding sits on the insoles and the custom box, tying everything into the Flight Club narrative. A themed hangtag adds another detail for collectors who love small touches. The palette is a reminder past off-white Air Jordan 1s, but the pink accents keep it from blending in with older releases.

Jordan fans can expect the Air Jordan 1 Mid “Flight Club” to launch in 2026, with pairs available on Nike.com and through select retailers.

Central Cee Reimagines BAPE Classics in New Spotify x SYNA Capsule

BAPE x Spotify x SYNA by Central Cee returns with a capsule that blends music, fashion, and street culture in a clean way.

Central Cee serves as creative director, shaping classic BAPE silhouettes through SYNA’s London-first perspective. The purple theme nods to the iconic BAPE hoodie that once helped define hip-hop style.

The lineup features a purple-accented puffer inspired by a shade Cench has admired for years. A “Synning BAPE” tee remixes a well-known graphic through SYNA’s lens. The football jersey draws from England’s 2006 home kit, connecting to Cench’s lifelong love of the sport. Those touches add personality without drifting from BAPE’s roots.

Music runs through the project as a guide for mood and detail. Several labels and care tags include scannable links to a Central Cee–curated playlist on Spotify. The playlist will update during the rollout to match the capsule’s evolving energy.

The full BAPE x Spotify x SYNA by Central Cee Collection releases November 25th through BAPE.com and at select BAPE STORE locations.

Nike GT Cut 3 Turbo Gets A Dallas Mavericks Colorway

The Nike GT Cut 3 Turbo “Dallas Mavericks” lands with a bold navy mix that instantly signals team pride.

Nike rarely leans this directly into a Mavericks theme, so this pair feels refreshingly pointed. The split upper adds personality with Pure Platinum on one side and deep College Navy on the other.

The ribbed sides give the shoe some motion, and the big metallic Swoosh cuts across the midfoot with attitude. Those heel fins add a light futuristic touch without taking the whole design over the top. The balance works well here.

ZoomX cushioning delivers a lively ride, and the translucent blue outsole strengthens the Mavericks-inspired story. Small Volt hits add a sharp pop and keep the palette from feeling too cold.

The Nike GT Cut 3 Turbo “Mavericks” is now available on Nike.com for $210 USD.

size? x adidas Manchester “25th Anniversary” Releases December 2025

The adidas Manchester City Series makes a strong comeback as size? closes its 25th Anniversary lineup with a sharp new twist on the Manchester.

This pair flips the 2002 Commonwealth Games color blocking, trading the original blue base for a bold red upper that feels both nostalgic and fresh. I like how the switch adds energy without losing the shoe’s old-school charm.

This updated palette also lines up neatly with Manchester United’s 2025–26 Home kit, which might push collectors to grab pairs early. While not confirmed, the rumored production run of 2,025 pairs fits the anniversary theme and adds a bit of chase for fans. However, size? hasn’t shared a firm launch date yet, so we’re still watching for official details.

Expect the size? x adidas Manchester “25th Anniversary” to land as a size? exclusive on size.co.uk and in-store for around $115 this December.
