Mexican Artist Peso Pluma Signs With adidas Originals

Momentum is building around All-Star Weekend, and adidas Originals is stepping into the spotlight again. The brand continues to blur the line between sport and culture as new faces enter the mix.

adidas Originals now adds Mexican artist Peso Pluma to its growing roster. The move is already active, even without a full announcement. Peso Pluma will appear at the adidas x Willy Chavarria activation at Shoe Palace during All-Star Weekend. That timing places him at the center of one of the biggest cultural stages of the year.

Instead of a slow rollout, adidas moves with urgency here. The brand puts Peso Pluma directly into real-world moments. That choice signals a shift toward presence over promotion. It also shows how adidas leans into culture to drive visibility.

This early appearance hints at what could follow. Campaigns, product tie-ins, or deeper storytelling could develop from this start. For now, the focus stays on the moment.

University of Houston Gets Their Own Jordan Tatum 4 PE

Jayson Tatum is expanding his footprint in the college hoops scene with a special Jordan Tatum 4 PE made for the University of Houston. While there’s no deep-rooted connection between Tatum and the program, Houston’s status as a Jordan Brand school opens the door for exclusive player editions like this—especially as March Madness approaches.

This marks one of the first collegiate PEs for the Tatum 4, and it leans heavily into school pride. The upper is packed with detailed graphics, featuring a mix of UH logos, “Houston Cougars” text, “For The City” messaging, stars, Jumpman branding, and even illustrated versions of Shasta, the school’s mascot. All of it comes together in a layered, all-over print that makes the design feel busy in a purposeful way.

Color-wise, the pair stays true to Houston’s identity, using a bold red and white combination throughout. The design elements fill nearly every inch of the shoe, making it clear this is a team-first concept built for visibility on and off the court.

Like most college-exclusive PEs, this Jordan Tatum 4 Houston PE won’t see a public release. Unless you have ties to the program or plan to pay resale prices, it’s more of a look-but-don’t-touch moment. Still, it offers a strong glimpse into how the Tatum 4 can be adapted for team storytelling.

Michael Jordan’s 23XI Racing Debuts Air Jordan 9 PE

Michael Jordan’s 23XI Racing stepped away from NBA headlines and into motorsports during Daytona 500 weekend, unveiling a special Air Jordan 9 PE built for performance on the track. The pair was worn by pit crew members during the Duel races, offering a rare look at how Jordan Brand blends sport-specific function with its legacy design language.

The sneaker arrives in a stealthy blacked-out look, combining a suede upper with a leather mudguard. Red accents hit the branding, including a stitched globe detail on the heel, while a grey sockliner adds subtle contrast. While it loosely echoes the classic Air Jordan 9 “Charcoal”, the build and materials clearly separate this version from its original inspiration.

What truly defines this PE is its purpose. Designed for NASCAR conditions, the shoe meets SFI 3.3/5 safety standards, meaning it’s fire-resistant and equipped with oil-resistant, high-traction soles. The Air Jordan 9s boot-like structure makes it a natural base for this kind of adaptation, translating well from hardwood heritage to pit lane functionality.

Although this pair isn’t expected to release, it continues to build momentum around 23XI Racing’s presence in sneaker culture. With recent sightings like Tyler Reddick’s Air Jordan 4 PE, the crossover between motorsports and Jordan Brand feels more active than ever—hinting that a future public drop may not be far off.

Kobe And Nike Basketball Take Over Los Angeles For All-Star Weekend 2026

NBA All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles is shaping up to be one of the most active sneaker moments in recent memory. Major retailers like Foot Locker and Shoe Palace are going all out with large-scale takeovers, while brands stack the schedule with events tied to top NBA talent and upcoming releases.

Nike Basketball is leaning heavily into the moment, with Kobe Bryant’s signature line taking center stage. A cinematic teaser from Nike sets the tone, spotlighting the Kobe logo dominating SoFi Stadium and signaling a major presence throughout the weekend.

On the product side, Kobe releases are a key focus. The lineup includes the Kobe 6 Protro “All-Star 3D” and Kobe 3 Low Protro “Warning Label”, alongside Kobe 1 and Kobe Air Force 1 Protro editions inspired by The Forum in Inglewood. That location ties directly into the weekend’s events, including the Celebrity Game and HBCU Classic.

Even with a packed slate already confirmed, there’s still anticipation around potential surprise drops. As always during All-Star Weekend, unexpected releases could surface at any moment, adding even more energy to an already stacked lineup.

Tom Sachs And NikeCraft Reveal I.S.R.U. Apparel Collection

The momentum behind the Mars Yard 3.0 rollout in 2025 carries directly into 2026, with Tom Sachs and Nike continuing their partnership through a new NikeCraft I.S.R.U. apparel collection. What began with hints of a new General Purpose Shoe colorway early in the year now expands into a full capsule built around function-first design.

Rooted in the ISRU (in-situ resource utilization) concept, the collection leans heavily into utility and outdoor readiness. Pieces are designed with purpose, blending technical materials with adaptable features. Standouts include a packable ripstop poncho that flips to reveal blueprint-style graphics, along with a matching hooded jacket that carries similar visual language and functional detailing.

The lineup balances experimental and everyday wear. On the technical side, the NikeCraft Wrap uses Cuben Fiber—a material borrowed from sailing—for a lightweight, durable build. More familiar staples round things out, including graphic tees, sweat sets, camp shorts, and a crossbody bag, all tied together with Sachs’ signature “uniform” mindset.

Individual items emphasize practicality. The hooded jacket features waterproof construction and layered storage, while the pants include adjustable straps for a customizable fit. Shirts and shorts incorporate sweat-wicking tech, reinforcing the collection’s performance angle, while subtle graphics and customizable name bars maintain a personal, workshop-inspired feel.

Although official release details have not been confirmed, the full collection has already surfaced on SNKRS and tomsachs.com, signaling a launch is on the horizon.

Hellstar x adidas x Anthony Edwards All-Star 2026 Collection

All-Star Weekend arrived early on Monday night when Anthony Edwards stepped onto the floor with a new collaboration in play. The Hellstar x adidas AE 2 made its on-court debut during Timberwolves vs. Hawks, setting the stage for its February 14th release in Los Angeles.

Built around resilience and the idea of being a light in the dark, the adidas AE 2 features a mesh upper layered with desert camo graphics and chrome accents. Hellstar branding lands across the tongue, outsole, collar, and heel, while Edwards’ logo balances the design on the opposite tongue. Extra lace options in brown, highlighter green, and cream give the silhouette added range without shifting its identity.

Anthony Edwards’ All-Star appearance will also see another release — a Hellstar x adidas Superstar. It comes in all-over camo with ripped/distressed Three Stripes, flame accents and a graphic of a screaming-face at the heel.

The release will also feature a range of apparel, including camo-print basketball shorts, a grey hoodie, and a graphic tee highlighted by a cartoon-style big-head illustration of Edwards.

The Hellstar x adidas x Anthony Edwards Collection is scheduled to launch on February 14th in Los Angeles at Foot Locker during NBA All-Star Weekend 2026, with availability limited to the event.

PUMA MB.05 “Lo” Debuts During NBA All-Star Weekend

Momentum around LaMelo Ball’s signature line continues to build, and this latest drop leans fully into his “1 of 1” identity. The PUMA MB.05 “Lo” brings a more experimental visual direction to the ongoing MB series.

Shimmering throughout the upper are gradients of murky greys and gasoline greens. The top is fragmented by a spider-web cracked overlay. The layered aesthetic makes the entire shoe feel experimental. It creates a sense of organized chaos that other iterations in the series haven’t tapped into before.

Black mesh construction through the tongue and collar keeps the build balanced, while “ONE OF ONE” text wraps the laces. A bright pink lightning bolt cuts down the tongue, adding contrast without overwhelming the darker base.

Hits of pink continue along the heel with “1-1-1” markings and graffiti-style “La Melo” branding. Just below, an alien graphic with a halo reinforces the signature storytelling direction tied to Melo’s on-court persona.

A sculpted black midsole sits underneath with aggressive shaping, while the outsole features a bold lightning traction pattern and skull detail near the heel.

The PUMA MB.05 “Lo” will be available first at the Foot Locker space in Los Angeles for NBA All-Star Weekend. A wider release has yet to be announced.

KEEN UNEEK 360 Reimagines “Two Cords, One Sole” For 2026

A new chapter is forming within KEEN’s open-air lineup as sustainability moves from messaging to material execution. The KEEN UNEEK 360 steps forward as the brand’s first solvent-free shoe

Built on the familiar “Two cords, one sole” foundation, this updated silhouette replaces traditional glue with a cord-based assembly system. By removing adhesives entirely, the design eliminates manufacturing solvents, reinforcing KEEN’s Detox the Planet direction. It marks a measured but meaningful shift in how the brand approaches construction.

Recycled P.E.T. from plastic bottles shapes both the engineered knit upper and its cord structure. A quick-adjust bungee and toggle system keeps the fit secure, while the modular design maintains the airy identity that defines this open-air sneaker.

KEEN’s Original Fit sits comfortably underneath your foot while providing enough room in the forefoot for your toes to spread naturally. Foam injected midsole and cushioned insole provide lightweight cushioning for daily activities, while a tough, grippy foam outsole enhances traction without adding bulk. Nonchemical odor control is achieved with Eco Anti-Odor treatment made from natural probiotics.

Release Date & Where To Buy

KEEN will release the UNEEK 360 on February 13 at 12 PM ET on KEEN.com and at select retailers.

adidas Continues Their Bob Marley Rollout With A New Samba

Football has always carried deeper meaning in Bob Marley’s world, and that spirit drives the latest adidas collaboration arriving this month. Set to release February 13, 2026, the Bob Marley x adidas Samba continues the partnership’s tribute to culture, music, and the global game.

This edition of the classic indoor silhouette pairs a black leather T-toe and lace panel with printed canvas sidewalls dressed in red, green, and black graphics. Yellow Three Stripes, heel tab, and sockliner create sharp contrast, while the tongue features Marley’s portrait alongside the phrase, “Football is Freedom.” A Jamaica Football Federation keychain hangtag completes the look, reinforcing the soccer connection at the heart of the design.

The wider capsule consists of two Evo SL sneakers, a Gazelle, Handball Spezial, and even an apparel lineup centered around football-focused clothing. Overall, the collab shows adidas doubling down on releasing products with storied pasts over fresh performance footwear.

Nike Ja 3 “Warning Label” Releases February 13th

UPDATE 2/12/26: Official photos of the Nike Ja 3 “Warning Label” have been added below. The colorway is set to release on February 13th exclusively in Los Angeles as part of NBA All-Star Weekend 2026. On the same day, a more understated “Cobalt Bliss” edition will launch in wider availability.

Original Story 2/2/26:
Night lights, packed arenas, and the energy that surrounds All-Star Weekend are starting to show up in Nike Basketball’s footwear again. For 2026, that moment includes a new chapter for Ja Morant, as his third signature joins the brand’s “Warning Label” lineup. The Nike Ja 3 “Warning Label” arrives in that context, not as a random colorway, but as part of a broader All-Star story Nike is building across its signature roster.

Cobalt Bliss dominates the upper, but it’s the layered, iridescent finish that gives the shoe its character. Micro-textured panels ripple across the surface, catching light differently from every angle, while clean black Swooshes anchor the look with visual contrast. The translucent outsole continues the theme, adding depth without overpowering the silhouette.

Built for Morant’s speed, the Ja 3 keeps its low-to-the-ground stance and quick-response cushioning, favoring court feel over bulk. Compared with earlier Ja 3 releases, this pair leans more into visual storytelling, suggesting Nike is treating the “Warning Label” program less like a one-off pack and more like a recurring All-Star platform.

Momentum now sits with the collection as much as the individual models. The design reads cohesive with recent entries on the Sabrina 3, KD 18, Book 2, LeBron 23, and Giannis Freak 7, but still feels distinctly Ja.

Nike Ja 3 All-Star Warning Label Release Date

The Nike Ja 3 “Warning Label” will release February 13, 2026 for $170 USD via Nike Basketball retailers and Nike.com.

CLOT And BAPE Reconnect On The BOLA STA in Bold Red

Collaborations between Hong Kong and Japan have always been a cornerstone of streetwear, and thankfully that train of thought continues to stay strong. With its sights set on Tokyo, CLOT reconnects with BAPE to deliver a refreshed take on the classic BOLA STA.

Instead of leaning on the traditional fit and design of the Ape-era shoe, this release focuses on the BOLA STA silhouette: a plumper low-top with a cleaner, more modern profile. The shoe is presented in a vibrant red canvas upper, contrasted by burgundy accents around the mudguard and heel stack. Completing the look is a color-matched BAPE STA star that spans across the shoe’s sidewall, cream interior lining, and a beefy midsole.

Minimalism continues down the branding route, as BAPE STA tags the heel tab, while the Ape Head badge stamps over the lateral heel. The pair is finished with silver lace dubrae to tie the premium look together. On the interior, custom insoles are printed with collab graphics.

Feet first, the molded sock-like sole unit features multi-panel construction with a gum outsole and windowed midfoot exposing graphic detail.

You can cop the CLOT x BAPE BOLA STA “Red” at Juice Store and at Juice locations.

Circulate x Nike Collection Taps Crenshaw High For Exclusive All-Star Release

All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles will stretch beyond the arena lights and into the neighborhood. At Crenshaw High School, a community-driven market will double as the exclusive launch point for the Circulate x Nike Collection.

Founded in 2018, Circulate has built its identity through layered graphic design rooted in culture, emotion, and time. This Nike collaboration marks founder Corey Populus’ first public project with the brand, delivered as a six-piece capsule shaped by Los Angeles energy and Crenshaw’s school colors.

White Championship Artist tees and World Champions graphics in dark blue and purple anchor the lineup. A Circulate Arts P.E. Uniform pairs a bold white tee with blue mesh shorts, while the South Central Hoodie lands in grey. The pieces lean into local pride without overcomplicating the formula, suggesting a focused approach to storytelling through apparel.

The weekend also includes the Nike SB Challenge presented by Circulate, blending basketball and skateboarding on one court Saturday at noon.

The Circulate x Nike Collection releases February 13–14 at 11th Ave Market, exclusively at Crenshaw High School in Los Angeles. RSVP on Nike.com.

Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro “Warning Label” Releases February 13th

UPDATE 2/12/26: Official photos of the Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro “Warning Label” have been revealed. The pair is scheduled to release on February 13th exclusively in Los Angeles during NBA All-Star Weekend 2026. No online release is expected at this time.

Original Story 2/5/26:
All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles has become a familiar stage for Kobe Brand statements, and this year’s spotlight lands on a silhouette with real historical weight. Nike is officially introducing the Kobe 3 Low Protro as part of its “Warning Label” collection, aligning performance storytelling with the energy surrounding the NBA’s return to L.A.

What makes this release significant isn’t just the All-Star tie-in. It marks the first time a low-cut version of the Kobe 3 will be made available to the public, shifting a previously exclusive on-court format into retail form. The design leans into the Warning Label theme through dark metallic finishes and aggressive detailing that nod to Bryant’s reputation as an offensive threat defenders were meant to fear.

Beneath the visual treatment, the update stays rooted in modern playability. A full-length Zoom strobel replaces older cushioning setups, paired with revised foam to meet today’s performance expectations without abandoning the original Kobe-era shape. The result is a model that feels current while still tied to Bryant’s mid-2000s design language.

Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro Warning Label Release Date

The Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro “Warning Label” is scheduled to release on February 13, 2026. Availability will be limited to in-person drops in Los Angeles only, reinforcing the local connection tied to All-Star Weekend and the broader Kobe Brand legacy.

Victor Solomon x Nike Air Max 90 “Downtown Diamond District” Releases February 13th

Victor Solomon is stepping beyond the hardwood once again, this time bringing his jewelry-driven design language to a trio of Nike classics. While basketball remains central to his creative identity, the latest collaboration shifts focus to lifestyle silhouettes, including the Air Force 1 Low, Foamposite One, and Air Max 90.

The standout from the pack is the Victor Solomon x Nike Air Max 90 “Downtown Diamond District,” a pair rooted in the designer’s early days working in Los Angeles’ famed jewelry hub. The concept blends luxury detailing with everyday wearability, translating Solomon’s background in crafting championship-level hardware into something built for the streets.

On this Air Max 90, cream tumbled leather forms the base, giving the shoe a refined yet versatile foundation. The highlight arrives through an embroidered Swoosh designed to mirror the sparkle and structure of real diamonds. Black suede at the heel adds contrast, stamped with Solomon’s signature for a personal touch. Subtle basketball lace locks and chain-inspired laces tie back to both his roots in hoops culture and his evolution into high-end design.

The Victor Solomon x Nike Air Max 90 “Downtown Diamond District” will release on February 13th at Shoe Palace, located at 7725 Melrose Ave in Los Angeles. The launch is scheduled for 3 PM local time and will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Retail price is set at $250.

Deion Sanders Shows Off All-White Nike Air DT Max 96 Cleats

Deion Sanders is once again using Instagram as his personal runway for exclusive Nike heat. The Hall of Famer recently shared a clean, all-white version of the Nike Air DT Max 96 cleat in a new Reel, instantly sparking buzz among fans who are still waiting for certain Diamond Turf styles to hit retail.

While Nike and Deion are expected to expand their partnership in 2026—possibly revisiting silhouettes like the Air Diamond Turf 2—the DT Max 96 continues to be a staple within the Colorado Buffaloes program. The model has remained closely tied to Coach Prime’s on-field presence, blending nostalgia with modern-day college football energy.

This latest pair keeps things simple with a fully white build, leaning into a crisp, uniform-ready look. As of now, there are no plans for a public release. However, Sanders did hint at a different kind of opportunity. In the caption, he invited parents to show love for their young athletes in the comments. Because of NIL and eligibility rules, Nike can only gift pairs to kids who are not yet in high school.

So while most fans may not get their hands on this all-white DT Max 96 cleat, a few lucky young athletes just might.

Victor Solomon x Nike Air Force 1 “Sunset Strip” Releases February 13th

Los Angeles artist Victor Solomon is stepping into NBA All-Star Weekend with his most ambitious sneaker collaboration to date. After previously working with Reebok, the designer behind the NBA’s reimagined trophies is now teaming up with Nike for a three-shoe capsule releasing exclusively through Shoe Palace.

The collection includes the Nike Air Foamposite One, Air Max 90, and Air Force 1 Low, each inspired by a distinct part of Los Angeles. The Air Force 1 “Sunset Strip” serves as a tribute to the city’s iconic nightlife corridor, blending luxury detailing with classic basketball heritage.

Premium materials set the tone throughout. The upper combines tumbled leather with intricate lace-like patterns across the toe box, tongue, and quarter panels. Gold Swooshes add a bold contrast, while matching gold chain laces bring a trophy-inspired aesthetic. Basketball-shaped lace locks finish the look, reinforcing Solomon’s signature design language. Custom branding hits the heel, and the insoles feature Los Angeles map graphics marked with geographic coordinates for an added storytelling layer.

Limited to just 1,000 pairs, the Victor Solomon x Nike Air Force 1 “Sunset Strip” carries a $250 price tag. The release is scheduled for February 13th at 10:00 AM, available exclusively at Shoe Palace’s Melrose location in Los Angeles.
