Nike ACG Air Phassad Gets A Neon Pink Colorway

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Nike brings back the ACG Air Phassad in “Hyper Pink” for Fall 2025. First released in the mid-1990s, the Phassad is a legacy durable outdoor sneaker. The new colorway updates the retro design for today with one goal in mind: to stand out.

The upper features a mix of Hyper Pink synthetic and mesh with a protective shroud. Black overlays, Swooshes, and side buckle closure add structure and a touch of edge. On the heel, the iconic ACG triangle logo cements its outdoor heritage.

The chunky black midsole transitions to a lugged outsole in a combination of Hyper Pink and black. The harsh contrast continues to the aggressive tread for good traction on and off the trails. Nike Air cushioning provides support for daily wear while reinforced toe and heel panels complete the tough aesthetic with bold street appeal.

The Nike ACG Air Phassad “Hyper Pink” drops Fall 2025 at Nike.com and select retailers for $145 USD.

Nike KD 18 EYBL “The Academy” PE Revealed

By
Mario Briguglio
-

The Nike KD 18 EYBL “The Academy” brings Kevin Durant’s latest signature sneaker to an exclusive stage. Designed specifically for the Nike Elite Youth Basketball League’s prestigious program, this edition won’t see a retail release, making it a rare sight for collectors.

The colorway blends white, silver, black, and sharp blue overlays, accented by orange mesh underlays that add contrast. EYBL branding runs down the tongue, while “The Academy” emblem on the heel confirms its limited status. That’s the detail sneakerheads will notice right away. With bold paneling and futuristic lines, the KD 18 maintains a strong on-court identity while carrying storytelling elements tied to the event.

Durant’s line has a long history of player-exclusive editions, but this KD 18 marks one of the most visually striking. Early images surfaced via Randy M. Williams (@r2n9y), giving fans a closer look at the pair. Unfortunately, this PE will remain off retail shelves, reserved only for athletes competing in the program.

While the KD 18 EYBL “The Academy” won’t release publicly, Nike Basketball continues to expand Durant’s performance range online, ensuring fans still have plenty of options.

Exclusive to EYBL “The Academy” players, not available at retail.

Nike’s International Running Pack brings together performance sneakers with throwback palettes.

The Vaporfly 4 pays homage to “Pre Montreal spike” colors, the Alphafly 3 is inspired by the split orange and green of the “Nike String”, the Pegasus 41 nods to the bright green of the “Waffle Racer” and the Vomero 18 makes its debut in the sunny “LD-1000” colorway.

This collection covers marathon-busting speed and everyday training versatility while looking back on Nike’s rich running history. The lead designer Katsunobu Asayama told the company that the range was driven by a Japanese running community’s love of archival styles. That combination of old and new is what makes this drop so special.

Salehe Bembury x New Balance 1000 Revealed in Second Colorway

By
Mario Briguglio
-

Salehe Bembury has already proven that 2025 is off to another memorable start with the release of the Salehe Bembury x New Balance 1000. Bembury, who has worked with Crocs, PUMA, and of course his own footwear brand, continues to design cutting-edge releases through his work with New Balance.

The new colorway of the New Balance 1000 consists of a gradient that shifts from a fluorescent pink at the heel, to a steel blue on the forefoot. Bits of fiery orange are scattered on the midsole and lace loops. Textured suede overlays at the toe add a juxtaposition of texture to the multi-layered upper. It’s a confident look that stays grounded. It’s also a recipe that has solidified Bembury’s status as one of the most important sneaker designers of his generation.

The sneaker drops not long after the “Fog Be The Cloud” version, which we already know will be available on September 5th. The pair dropped at the same time, so there is still the possibility that they could be released as a pack. For now, the mystery surrounding how it will drop has only heightened the excitement.

This is another marquee release in Bembury’s recent run of New Balance collabs, which include the “Heat Be Hot” 1906R. Stay tuned for more details as we get closer to the release date.

Its mesh upper comes dressed in a “Luminous Green” that practically glows in the dark (but don’t quote us on that). Bold black overlays give the shoe some bite, while that molded heel clip says, “I came to train, but I might hit brunch after.”

But wait, there’s more! Oversized Jumpman logos on the heel round out the chaos in true Jordan Brand fashion. It’s loud. It’s proud. It’s probably what your gym crush dreams about.

Nike Dunk Low GS Comes in Crazy Colors and Patterns

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Nike continues to update the Dunk Low with a release inspired by nature with storytelling. The tongue and heel logos mimic branches with new leaves growing off the ends for a more adventurous feel. A lining label on the tongue inside of the shoe echoes the theme with the phrase, “take the long way home.”

The construction points to pebbled “Seaweed” leather overlays with white stitching and white midsole. “Cargo Khaki” coloring is used on the toe box and tongue. The collar and side panels use a patterned “Green Abyss” canvas.

A contrasting “Ochre” leather Swoosh accents the base. Patterned red laces help create a bolder contrast. A gum sole in light brown creates a rugged element on the bottom.

The Nike Dunk Low GS “Seaweed/Cargo Khaki” will launch August 21, 2025 retailing for $100. You’ll find it on Nike.com and select retailers.

The overall feel of this Dunk is different from your typical pair. It has more of an outdoorsy aesthetic that younger sneakerheads should appreciate. It’s a wild mix of darker and neutral colors mixed with some brighter elements.

This Nike Infinity Tour 2 Is Designed By Brooks Koepka’s Son

By
Mason Tiniuc

Brooks Koepka debuts the Nike Infinity Tour 2 “Photon Dust/Blue Void” Player Edition with assistance from his son, Crew.

Crew’s interest in outer space inspired Koepka to create a shoe with a clean white upper and metallic red and blue astronaut details. The asymmetry is punctuated by blue spikes covering the left sole and red bolding on the right. Custom “B” and “R” tongue logos switch color ways, while red and blue lace eyelets add additional detail. The graphic is finished with a navy Swoosh on the heel and reflective striping.

Storytelling continues with a removable red “Flight Crew” tag which is another direct link to Koepka’s son, Crew. Galaxy-themed insoles complete the playful design nods as the Tour 2 features tour-level performance features for comfort and stability.

The Nike Infinity Tour 2 “Photon Dust/Blue Void” will launch Fall 2025 for $200 at Nike.com and select retail partners.

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

This AF1 will be part of Nike’s Fall 2025 “Corduroy” Pack, which reimagines the timeless silhouette in new texture.

It features the upper dressed in black corduroy. The material is characterized by its ridged pattern, which is different from a leather build. It features Nike’s textured Swoosh and tonal stitching, which keep the footwear looking sleek and refined. A metallic lace dubrae, and embroidered heel branding is placed to match.

Down below, a white midsole and outsole offer a crisp contrast. The outsole also provides the expected durability and grip AF1 fans are used to. The entire outsole features perforations at the toe box, while the collar is padded for comfort.

The Nike Air Force 1 Low “Black Corduroy” will release in Fall 2025, alongside the rest of the pack, via Nike.com for $125.

The Air Force 1 has worn many different skins since its 1982 launch, but this one is particularly modern.

New Balance Allerdale “Hazelnut” Gets Premium Leather Makeover

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

The New Balance Allerdale “Hazelnut” is back for Fall 2025, this time rendered in a sumptuous tumbled leather that accents its luxe vibe. The design embraces a more earth-toned aesthetic similar to the original but also dials back with some hiking inspired details for an outdoorsy attitude.

A translucent lugged outsole offers traction on the trail, while the D-ring eyelets and bespoke lacing method also lend the sneaker a utilitarian spirit. These minute elements take the “Hazelnut” beyond classic lifestyle footwear for a balanced silhouette with both street and subtle hiking design cues.

All in all, the drop furthers New Balance’s expansion into understated and sophisticated sneakers that look to offer hardy performance on the streets as well. This is a shoe that I like for its versatility; I can see it working with either jeans or technical outerwear and that makes it unique.

The New Balance Allerdale “Hazelnut” drops September 4, 2025 for $250 through NewBalance.com and key retail partners.

Late 1990s runner is on full display with the New Balance 1000 “Silver/Black/Concord.” Set to release Fall 2025, this 1000 model has a very Y2K runner vibe with chunky overlays, airy mesh, and futuristic details.

The upper uses a mix of black mesh and metallic silver overlays, with reflective details. The brand’s iconic “N” logo is featured on both sides of the shoe, while the “1000” logo is featured on the heel tab near the forefoot. The “1000” is also featured on the heel tab near the forefoot. Concord purple accents on the midsole add a pop of color and contrast to an otherwise metallic shoe.

The ABZORB cushioning tech also harkens back to New Balance’s performance line in the 1990s. The black outsole is more sculpted and detailed to offer traction.

The New Balance 1000 “Silver/Black/Concord” is releasing Fall 2025 on NewBalance.com and select retailers for $150 USD.

The 1000’s retro design also pulls from current nostalgia trends of repping the most slept-on runners from the past.

Kith Classics and adidas Running have collaborated on a six-pack collection to celebrate more than 60 years of performance history. The Heritage Running collection looks back at major milestones in adidas’ footwear timeline, re-releasing iconic models from across the decades.

The collection begins in 1972 with the introduction of the ultra-lightweight SL 72 OG, a catalyst in distance running. From there, it moves to 1983 New York and the collection’s webbed midsole, 1991 Oregon Ultra Tech, and early 2000s Supernova Cushion 7. Next up is 2013 Energy Boost, before culminating in adidas’ current race-day offering, the Adizero Boston 13. This will be the first time adidas has co-branded this model.

Design-wise, each shoe offers heritage cues with updated elements such as mesh uppers, leather overlays, and metallic details, all taken from archival research. Some pairs are given multi-color accents while Kith branding adorns the tongue, heel, and sockliner of each. The collection also comes in custom packaging and features a runner’s bib, marking the year each model originally debuted.

The collection will drop through the Kith App on August 20–21. A limited amount of pairs will release August 22nd in Kith stores and online at Kith.com global regional sites.

UPDATE 8/21/25: A closer look at the Undefeated x Air Jordan 4 2025 Friends and Family edition. While this pair remains exclusive, the retail version with “Nike Air” branding releases August 28th via SNKRS.

Original Story 7/31/25:
The Undefeated x Air Jordan 4 is making headlines 20 years after its initial release due to the re-release set to take place in August 2025. In addition to the retail reissue, a pair of Undefeated x Air Jordan 4 2025 Friends and Family edition has surfaced online for the first time, showcasing a new take on a classic silhouette.

Air Jordan 4 x Undefeated Ballistic Looksee Sample from 2005 in olive green with black and orange accents
Original 2005 Air Jordan 4 x Undefeated “Ballistic” Looksee Sample — the blueprint for the 2025 Friends & Family edition.

This Friends and Family edition pays homage to the original 2005 “Ballistic” sample. The entire upper is reworked in a textured material dubbed “Traffic Jam,” which imparts the military-inspired colorway with a rougher, more tactile quality. Unlike the retail version that is set to drop which features “Nike Air” branding on the heel, this Friends and Family exclusive replaces it with a blacked-out Jumpman logo on the heel tabs, a small but significant detail. The interior of the shoe maintains that familiar orange lining a refection of the MA-1 flight jacket influence.

Release Date & Where To Buy

The Undefeated x Air Jordan 4 2025 reissue will launch August 2nd exclusively at Undefeated, followed by an August 28th SNKRS release, priced at $230 USD. That version will be truer to the OG with an olive nubuck upper, black TPU accents, Velcro logos, and exposed Air cushioning.

But for some, this Friends and Family version will be the true grail.
