Nike Dunk Low “Soft Pearl” Shines With A Jewel Swoosh

Nike has given the Dunk a luxurious and feminine makeover with the “Soft Pearl” Dunk Low. The silhouette incorporates nostalgic design elements with high-end materials and an eye-catching Jewel Swoosh.

Made from a soft pearl leather upper, it features iridescent overlays that reflect different shades in the light. A cracked leather texture on the heel and collar pieces provide visual interest, as does the plush lining.

Cream midsole and navy outsole provide a grounding contrast to the ethereal upper. This Nike Dunk is the perfect silhouette to show off the Jewel Swoosh. A modern twist on the iconic Swoosh, the shape is reminiscent of the subtle bubbled detailing popular on Nike sneakers in the early 2000s.

The Nike Dunk Low “Soft Pearl” will release in Fall 2025 at select retailers and Nike.com. The retail price tag is set at $135 USD.

Nike Revives The Astro Grabber For Two Holiday-Ready Colorways

Archival inspiration is evident in both pairs with smooth leather and suede uppers, high-contrast white Swooshes, and gum outsoles.

Willy Chavarria Releasing His Own adidas Forum ’84 High

Willy Chavarria is the latest designer to put his spin on the adidas Forum ’84 with his dark, architectural take.

The classic silhouette of the adidas Forum ’84 High has been updated by Chavarria on the back half of the shoe. A flattened strap, chopped heel counter and reconfigured paneling give the classic a new look while still maintaining its OG character.

Details like the use of high-end materials (suspected to be a suede and smooth leather) and the branded “Chavarria” label stamped on the strap and tongue elevate the sneaker. The muted color palette of dark grays and black are subtle yet carry a certain sturdiness that is synonymous with Chavarria’s unique blend of streetwear and high fashion.

The Willy Chavarria x adidas Forum ’84 High will release on October 24th at overseas retailers. A global launch has yet to be announced.

Jalen Williams Debuts adidas Harden Vol 9. “Championship Ring Ceremony” PE

Jalen Williams kicked off the 2025 NBA season with statement energy, debuting the adidas Harden Vol. 9 “Championship Ring Ceremony” PE during Oklahoma City’s title celebration. The exclusive pair honors the Thunder’s first championship and highlights Williams’ growing influence as one of adidas Basketball’s brightest young stars.

This celebratory edition stands out with a striking mismatched gold and white design, symbolizing balance between legacy and future. Gold speaks to the hard-fought nature of the team’s success. The white shoe offers a blank canvas for the season to come. Wave-shaped midsoles, reflective metallic overlays, and custom J-Dub hand-sign graphics on the heel pull tabs make this PE uniquely personal. It’s that kind of storytelling detail sneakerheads will see at first glance.

Williams’ relationship with adidas has evolved into one of the brand’s most imaginative partnerships, without much fanfare. From his bold on-court rotations to limited PEs, he’s helping define adidas Basketball’s next era — one built on individuality and confidence.

While this “Championship Ring Ceremony” colorway won’t hit retail shelves, it perfectly captures the moment and meaning behind OKC’s rise. A golden start for the Thunder, and another chapter in Jalen Williams’ evolution with the Three Stripes.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Debuts Converse Shai 001 “Banner” PE At OKC Ring Ceremony

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander kicked off the 2025-26 NBA season in championship fashion, debuting the Converse Shai 001 “Banner” PE during the Oklahoma City Thunder’s ring ceremony. The exclusive pair celebrates the franchise’s first-ever NBA title and honors Shai’s Finals MVP performance that helped make it possible.

This special edition builds on the gold version SGA wore during last season’s celebration, now featuring a refined mix of metallic gold and white. The sleek neoprene upper contrasts with sculpted gold overlays that shine under arena lights. His signature “SGA” logo appears in gold embroidery, symbolizing both confidence and craft — the same traits that have defined his rise.

The “Banner” PE also marks the first two-tone design in the Shai 001 lineup, reflecting Converse’s evolving partnership with one of basketball’s most stylish figures. From his debut “Butter” colorway to pairs like “Hail Clay”, “Masi Blue”, and “Charm Black”, each release has sold out fast and reinforced Shai’s growing impact on performance and lifestyle culture alike.

While this pair won’t see a retail release, it’s a fitting tribute to OKC’s new era. Much like the championship ring crafted in 14-karat gold and studded with sapphires and diamonds, the Converse Shai 001 “Banner” represents excellence earned, not given.

Yeat x Nike Air Max Goadome Releasing At ComplexCon Las Vegas

Street art sightings in New York, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas have sparked major buzz — signaling a new Yeat Nike Air Max Goadome collaboration. The mysterious Swoosh-and-triangle tags from Yeat’s Lifestyle Corp brand set off speculation, and now early images confirm that the Portland rapper is stepping into his first official Nike partnership.

Yeat’s design of the rugged Air Max Goadome is true to form — dark, industrial and unapologetically subversive. Crafted with a black leather upper accented by metal studs around the eyestays and panels, the boot sports a luxe-meets-street finish with chrome hardware, custom aglets and metal Lifestyle Corp logos for a detail-heavy effect that feels both utilitarian and resistant.

The Goadome itself is a streetwear classic. Built to be worn in all-weather conditions, the model gained popularity with the hip-hop-driven hype cycle in the early 2000s for its tough, elevated silhouette. Yeat’s custom takes on that legacy with an updated twist, reshaping it for the current generation in a way that rides nostalgia and hype.

Nike has not released official details on the drop, but reports indicate the Yeat x Nike Air Max Goadome will drop sometime around ComplexCon Las Vegas on October 25, in conjunction with a Yeat performance at the event.

Grateful Dead x Oregon Ducks x Nike Air Max 90 “Grateful Ducks” Releases October 2025

UPDATE 10/21/25: Ahead of Oregon’s special “Grateful Ducks” matchup on October 25th, Nike has officially unveiled its campaign celebrating the collaboration. The Grateful Dead x Nike Air Max 90 and matching apparel drop first on October 21st at dead.net, followed by October 23rd at classtrip.co, and finally October 24th through Nike SNKRS, Fanatics, and select retailers across the U.S. A shock drop took place today ahead of its global launch.

Original Story 10/2/25:
The Grateful Dead x Oregon Ducks x Nike Air Max 90 “Grateful Ducks” is without a doubt one of the most bizarre collabs of the year. Pairing the mind-bending psychedelia of the Grateful Dead with the spirit and pride of the University of Oregon, Nike has captured both counterculture and college basketball in one Grateful Ducks Air Max 90.

This sneaker pays tribute to the Dead’s 2020 SB Dunk Low collaboration while weaving in the Ducks’ iconic green and yellow. A tie-dye mudguard and rainbow-stitched Swoosh add retro flair, while white mesh and suede keep the base clean. Pops of yellow highlight the tongue and outsole, giving the shoe a collegiate edge. But the cherry on top of this unique Dunk is the hangtag. Nike replaces the Grateful Dead’s iconic bears holding hands with ducks instead. Oregon’s mascot gets a sweet shoutout. It’s the small touches like this one that sneakers fans and Deadheads will love.

The Grateful Dead and Oregon have both collaborated with Nike in the past, but today marks the first time their legacies intersect on a collaborative level. With both the Dead and Oregon, this collection really isn’t a stretch as the Grateful Dead have deep roots performing for the people of Eugene, Oregon.

First teased by Bodega who quickly dropped pairs for sale before removing their listings, the pre-release intrigue is growing for the release.

Grateful Dead Oregon Ducks Air Max 90 Release Date

The Grateful Dead x University of Oregon x Nike Air Max 90 “Grateful Ducks” releases on October 24, 2025 at select retailers and Nike.com for $145 USD.

Duke Women’s Basketball Reveals Another Nike Kobe 5 Protro PE

Duke Women’s Basketball is keeping its sneaker game elite with another exclusive Nike Kobe 5 Protro Duke PE. After last week’s Blue and Black version, the Lady Blue Devils unveiled a clean white and Duke blue colorway that matches their home uniforms flawlessly.

Shared on the team’s Instagram with the playful caption, “We got ’em in white too,” this pair captures Duke pride with subtle precision. The upper features a crisp white leather base, contrasted by Duke blue overlays, swooshes, and midsoles. The “D” logo lands on the left tongue, while Kobe Bryant’s iconic sheath emblem holds its place on the right — a tribute to both Mamba mentality and Blue Devil heritage.

While most fans would love to lace these up, this PE remains exclusive to the women’s team. That limited access only adds to its mystique, making this one of the cleanest college Kobe 5s we’ve seen yet.

BBC Ice Cream Board Flip Releasing At ComplexCon Las Vegas 2025

The BBC Ice Cream Board Flip is finally making a comeback. Team rider Jimmy Gorecki previewed the skateboarding classic and let the cat out of the bag — that the early-2000s legend is back for a limited release at ComplexCon Las Vegas 2025. Pharrell Williams’ cult brand is dusting off a few OG colorways, including Blue Raspberry and Juicy Pink, two throwback faves that will take you back.

The reissue stays true to the original, handled once again by Reebok, just like the 2005 debut. More than a sneaker, the Board Flip symbolized BBC Ice Cream’s deep connection to skate and street culture. Back then, the brand’s skate team—featuring Terry Kennedy, Jacob Wilder, Kevin Brooker, Cato Williams, and a young Gorecki—broke boundaries, spotlighting Black talent in a space that rarely celebrated it.

Nearly 20 years later, the BBC Ice Cream Board Flip 2025 brings nostalgia with modern relevance. The colors pop, the suede feels premium, and the cultural footprint remains as strong as ever. That’s the kind of drop that connects generations of sneaker lovers.

The BBC Ice Cream Board Flips will release October 25, 2025 during the two-day ComplexCon festival in Las Vegas and will be limited to 500 pairs.

Christian Tresser Returns To Nike Under Jordan Brand

Nike is getting one of its biggest legends back in the house. According to Brendan Dunne on X, Christian Tresser is rejoining the footwear giant under the Jordan Brand umbrella as a senior expert designer, where he will focus on speed-to-market footwear design and development. He made the official announcement on social media, posting a photo of himself in front of the Michael Jordan Building at the Nike World Headquarters.

The Air Max 97 designer helped put the final touches on Nike’s late-’90s running era, mixing futuristic lines and bold colorways with masterful, layered silver waves. He also gained attention at Reebok prior to his run at Nike, producing such classics as the Aztrek and DMX Daytona. Later in his career, Tresser was at adidas, working on the Yeezy 700 MNVN series from 2020 to 2023, so he certainly hasn’t been resting on his laurels.

Now, the Christian Tresser Nike return is a sign that things are about to get interesting under the Jordan Brand umbrella as Tresser is tapped to work on a series of performance and lifestyle projects. He has a proven history of elevating the best and boldest of ideas to legendary status, so it’s not hard to see why sneakerheads are salivating at the possibilities. That’s the kind of comeback story that sneaker culture lives for, after all — one where innovation and legacy collide.

The Christian Tresser Jordan Brand era will kick off soon, and it’s sure to light a fire under Nike’s next classic.

Original Story 6/11/25:
Anthony Edwards is lacing up for more than the hardwood. The adidas AE 1 Low Football Cleat is sprinting into Summer 2026.

Yes, you read that right—his beloved adidas AE 1 just got a turf-ready upgrade. This marks the first time adidas transforms the AE 1 Low into a football cleat.

Dressed in the “Best of Adi” colorway, this cleat keeps the basketball shoe’s bold identity. The TPU honeycomb wing, fang toe cap, and breathable mesh stay locked in. However, the outsole now flexes adidas’ Freak Plate 20 for football-ready grip.

Lime green logos give the black upper some punch, while a clean white wing provides fresh contrast. It’s loud, it’s fast, and it means business on the gridiron.

Even better, adidas kept Boost cushioning for all-day comfort—whether you’re running routes or running errands. This is a true sports crossover that blends sneaker culture with cleat tech.
