Nike Ja 4 Halloween “Zombie” Releases October 23rd

The Nike Ja 4 is getting a Halloween colorway for October 2026, and this one goes with a dirty green and grey look. Faded graphics cover most of the upper, giving the shoe a worn, almost zombie-like feel.

The upper is covered in ripped and distressed fabric, mixing dirty green, olive, and dark grey shades across most of the shoe. The faded finish gives it an aged look, while matching green carries over to the laces, tongue, lining, and translucent outsole.

Bright orange-red adds the strongest contrast. It shows up on the large Swoosh and the sharp JA support piece along the midsole. Brown sections around the opposite side and heel add another darker tone to the colorway.

The Halloween theme continues underfoot, where the outsole glows green in the dark. Inside, the insole features a colorful Ja Morant screaming face graphic, tying back to the zombie-inspired details seen on past seasonal releases.

Nike Ja 4 Halloween Release Date

The Nike Ja 4 “Halloween” releases October 23, 2026 through Nike and select retailers. Adult pairs will retail for $140, while grade school sizing will be priced at $125. Check out the official photos below.

Joe Freshgoods Gives Us a Better Look at the New Balance 990v7

UPDATE 10/12/26: Joe Freshgoods just shared the New Balance 990v7 on his Instagram Story, and we finally have a better look at some of the changes. The panels sit higher than they do on the 990v6, with the layers underneath moving closer to the front of the shoe. There’s also some reflective 3M material worked into the design, while the bigger “N” logo looks a lot more like the one used on the older 990v3.

New Balance has been making changes to the cushioning, too. The 990v7 uses softer FuelCell foam, along with ENCAP, a CR stability component, and a new TPU shank plate. The idea is to give the shoe more cushioning while keeping the support people are used to getting from the 990 series.

Original Story:
Rosalía was spotted jogging through New York the other day, and sneakerheads immediately noticed her unreleased kicks: the highly anticipated New Balance 990v7. While New Balance recently teased the upcoming silhouette on a Chinatown billboard, this candid look gives us our absolute best glimpse yet at the unreleased model.

Looking at the 990v7, you can still see plenty of the previous 990v6 in the design, but New Balance has changed a few things around. The mudguard is noticeably bigger, the panels sit a little differently, and the “N” logo is somewhere between the sizes used on the 990v6 and older models like the 990v3. Some of the materials along the sides also appear to be new. They kept the familiar grey suede for the first colorway, though the slightly aged finish on the logo and midsole is a little different from what we’re used to seeing on the standard grey 990s.

There’s some new stuff going on underfoot as well, with softer FuelCell foam replacing the firmer feel of earlier versions. New Balance is also using ENCAP cushioning, a CR stability component, and a new TPU shank plate to help with support. The idea is to make the shoe more comfortable without losing the stability people expect from the 990 series.

New Balance hasn’t announced a release date for the 990v7 just yet, but with Rosalía already wearing them and the recent teasers around New York, more information should be coming soon.

APB x Air Jordan 11 Low “Made For Locals” Celebrates Neighborhood Culture

APB has been showing off its Air Jordan 11 Low for a while, but now we know a little more about why they made it. The sneaker is called “Made For Locals,” and the idea comes from those neighborhood places everyone has their favorites of. Could be the coffee shop you stop at every morning, the deli down the street, or that sneaker store you’ve been going to for years. That’s what APB wanted to recognize with this release.

They went with Binary Blue for most of the shoe, using shiny patent leather around the bottom and a softer matte leather up top. There’s also a thin strip of Rust Pink that goes all the way around the upper. Nothing too complicated with the colors, though the different leather finishes make the blue look a little different depending on where you’re looking.

If you’re trying to grab a pair, APB isn’t the only place selling them. A Ma Maniére, JAIDE, and Social Status are also getting the shoes since they’re all part of The Whitaker Group. EQL raffles are already open at all four stores, so there’s a chance to enter before release day.

APB Air Jordan 11 Low Release Date

The APB x Air Jordan 11 Low “Made For Locals” releases October 23, 2026, for $200. Pairs will be available online and in stores through APB, A Ma Maniére, JAIDE, and Social Status.

Tyrrell Winston Puts His Spin on the adidas Spiritain 2000

Tyrrell Winston was working with Reebok for years before he decided to switch things up and join adidas earlier in 2026. The New York artist already gave us the Lightblaze POD as his first project with the brand, and now he’s got another pair coming. This time it’s the adidas Spiritain 2000, a running-inspired sneaker that’s part of his first full collection with adidas.

What’s interesting about the Spiritain 2000 is that it looks like an old running shoe from the early 2000s, but it’s actually a newer model. Adidas has been using that same style on shoes like the adiStar Control 5, though Winston went with his own color combination here. The upper is mostly bright red mesh, with cream overlays that have a cracked, worn-looking finish. Small gold accents show up on the branding, his signature near the heel, and the lace tips, while the thick sole keeps that chunky running shoe look.

Winston’s version doesn’t stray too far from the original Spiritain 2000 design, but the red, cream, and gold combination gives it a different feel from the usual retro-inspired adidas runners. It’s also a pretty different shoe from the Lightblaze POD he started with, showing another side of what he’s been working on since leaving Reebok.

The Tyrrell Winston x adidas Spiritain 2000 is expected to release October 22, 2026, alongside a matching apparel collection.

Air Jordan 9 Boot “Reflective Anthracite” Now Available (October 2026)

UPDATE 10/12/26: The Air Jordan 9 Boot “Reflective Anthracite” is now available on Nike.com for $240.

Original Story 8/28/26:
The Air Jordan 9 has been showing up a lot in 2026. Jordan Brand already has pairs like the “Space Jam,” “What The Kilroy,” and “Flint” on the way, and now the Air Jordan 9 Boot is coming back too.

The Air Jordan 9 Boot first released in 2017. It took the regular AJ9 and gave it a tougher build for colder, wetter weather. The shape stayed familiar, but the materials were heavier and the overall look was more rugged. Jordan Brand kept bringing the boot back here and there through 2021, including brighter colorways and a few college exclusives.

For Holiday 2026, the Air Jordan 9 Boot returns in an “Anthracite/Multicolor” colorway. Most of the shoe stays dark, with grey shaggy suede covering the upper. The side panels add some contrast with an iridescent finish that shows different colors when the light hits it.

The Air Jordan 9 Boot NRG “Iridescent” is expected to release during October 2026 for $240.

Jaylen Brown’s 7UICE x Bape STA Still Has Some Boston in It

Seeing Jaylen Brown in a Philadelphia 76ers jersey is going to take some getting used to, especially after all those years with the Celtics. But while fans are still wrapping their heads around the move, Brown already has something happening in Philly outside of basketball. He’s teamed up with A Bathing Ape through his 7UICE clothing brand for a new BAPE STA, and the sneakers are getting an early release at a local Philadelphia shop.

The shoes themselves still have a bit of Boston written all over them, mainly because of the green piping running across the black patent leather upper. There’s also a large white star on the sides and a 7UICE logo stamped on the heel. Considering how long sneaker collaborations usually take to put together, this one was probably already in the works before Brown left the Celtics. Either way, the black, green, and white combination keeps things pretty simple.

Brown actually has some history with BAPE going back to 2024, when he wore a custom chrome Skate STA during his public criticism of Nike. That was before he started his independent 741 footwear brand, so this new release marks his first official sneaker collaboration with A Bathing Ape.

The Jaylen Brown x 7UICE x BAPE STA will first release October 17, 2026, at Lapstone & Hammer in Philadelphia during a special meet-and-greet event. The first 50 people in line will get a chance to meet Brown and purchase the sneakers before everyone else. A wider online release is scheduled for October 18.

Kevin Durant Brings The Slim Reaper to the Nike KD 19 “Halloween”

UPDATE 10/12/26: Nike has shared official photos of the KD 19 “Halloween,” giving us a better look at the orange and black design. The shoe splits the two colors across the upper, with glow-in-the-dark details and a skeleton graphic along the side. There are also special insoles and hangtags playing off Kevin Durant’s “Slim Reaper” nickname. The sneakers are still set to drop October 23, 2026, for $165.

Original Story 10/1/26:
Kevin Durant will have another seasonal colorway in the mix this October as the Nike KD 19 gets dressed up for Halloween. The upcoming pair sticks with the colors you would expect around this time of year, using a mostly dark upper with bright orange accents and a few details that give it more of a Halloween feel.

The first look comes from Nike lookbook images rather than a traditional set of sneaker photos. Dark Smoke Grey handles most of the upper, while Bright Crimson breaks things up across the shoe with an orange finish. It also gives the KD 19 one of its more noticeable two-tone looks since the model was introduced.

Lime Ice and Stadium Green are worked into smaller areas, with a semi-translucent off-white outsole sitting underneath. The outsole looks like it could glow in the dark, although that detail has not been confirmed yet. A graphic along the lateral side adds another part of the Halloween theme without changing much of the KD 19’s overall design.

Several Nike Basketball signature shoes are getting Halloween colorways in 2026. Durant’s pair will be part of the same seasonal group as the Caitlin 1, Book 2, Ja 4, and Sabrina 4.

The Nike KD 19 “Halloween” comes in Bright Crimson, Lime Ice, Stadium Green, and Dark Smoke Grey. The shoe is scheduled to release October 23, 2026, at select Nike Basketball retailers and Nike.com for an expected $165.

Cade Cunningham’s Nike ST Charge “Halloween” Comes With a Creepy Leatherface Mask

UPDATE 10/12/26: Nike has finally shared official photos of Cade Cunningham’s Nike ST Charge “Halloween,” and the shoes come with a pretty creepy extra. There’s a Leatherface-inspired mask featuring the Pistons star with stitched-up skin and a horror movie look. The sneakers are set to release October 23, 2026, just in time for Halloween.

Original Story 10/7/26:
The Nike ST Charge is getting a Halloween colorway for 2026, with Cade Cunningham attached to the release. Cunningham has spent plenty of time playing in the model, and this pair carries his No. 2 on the heel along with his star logo on the tongue.

Cunningham’s No. 2 is placed on the rear pull tab, while his star logo appears on the tongue. Those details continue the connection between Cunningham and the ST Charge, a shoe that has essentially served as an unofficial signature model for him.

Brown and tan make up most of the Nike ST Charge “Halloween,” covering the upper in two different shades. Orange is used on the laces and inside the tongue, bringing in the color most closely associated with the holiday without taking over the shoe. Exposed stitching can also be seen around the heel, and the outsole uses a speckled finish.

Product listings have surfaced for two versions of the shoe, including a standard release for the U.S. and an EP edition for Asian markets.

The Cade Cunningham x Nike ST Charge “Halloween” is expected to release October 23, 2026 through Nike and select retailers.

Nike Giannis Freak 8 “Trick Question” Takes Cues From The Riddler

Giannis Antetokounmpo is getting another Halloween sneaker this year, with the Nike Giannis Freak 8 “Trick Question” joining the brand’s growing collection for October 2026. It continues a run that started with the Freak 6 and carried over to last year’s Freak 7, though this pair moves away from the more familiar orange-heavy look usually tied to the holiday.

The Freak 8 comes dressed in Gorge Green, Metallic Gold, Hyper Grape, Lucky Green, Light Lemon Twist, and Black. Green takes up most of the shoe, covering the upper and working its way through the sculpted sole design. Repeated “GA” logos are worked into the upper as a nod to the Riddler’s famous question mark-covered costume, while purple laces bring another color into the mix without taking over the design.

Each of Giannis’ recent Halloween releases has gone in a different direction. The Freak 6 leaned into traditional seasonal colors, while the Freak 7 used a “Warewolf” theme. For the Freak 8, the “Trick Question” name ties back to the Riddler, with the green and purple colors matching his familiar outfit and the repeated GA logos taking the place of his question marks.

Giannis is also part of a much bigger Nike Basketball Halloween lineup for 2026. LeBron James, Devin Booker, Ja Morant, Kevin Durant, Caitlin Clark, and Sabrina Ionescu all have Halloween-themed signature shoes expected this season.

The Nike Giannis Freak 8 “Trick Question” releases October 23, 2026 for $130 through select retailers like Foot Locker and Nike.com.

Nike A’Two “Potion No. 22” Releases Ahead of Halloween

Built around some of her favorite Halloween costumes, A’ja Wilson’s Nike A’Two “Halloween Potion No. 22” brings several horror references together for the model’s Halloween release. The name comes from Wilson’s No. 22 jersey, with the mismatched design inspired by some of her favorite Halloween costumes.

Blood-like Bright Crimson splatter stretches across the lateral side and continues onto the midsole. Small black dots mixed into the graphics reference the hockey mask worn by Jason Voorhees, bringing a Friday the 13th element into that half of the shoe.

Red and yellow take over the medial side in a honeycomb pattern tied to “Candyman.” The change is noticeable from one side to the other, and the rest of the shoe keeps adding to the mix. A silver TPU heel clip has flame-shaped edges, while royal blue appears on the tongue.

The Nike A’Two “Halloween Potion No. 22” is set to release October 23, 2026 through select retailers and Nike.com. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price tag is set at $155.

Sabrina Ionescu Turns Into a Vampire for the Nike Sabrina 4 “Halloween”

Nike is giving the Sabrina 4 a Halloween colorway for October, and this one goes pretty dark with it. Sabrina Ionescu’s fourth signature shoe comes in black and deep red, but it’s the stuff you notice after looking at the shoe for a minute that really gives away the vampire theme.

Red drips off the pointed end of the Swoosh like blood, while metallic silver pieces around the laces are made to look like vampire fangs. They’re small details, but they do enough to make the theme clear without turning the whole shoe into a costume.

The same idea carries over to the insoles, where Sabrina shows up as a cartoon vampire. That gives the pair a more playful side and breaks up the darker look without taking away from the overall theme.

Nike has made Halloween colorways a regular part of its October basketball lineup, and Sabrina’s pair won’t be the only one this year. Ja Morant is also expected to get a Halloween-themed Nike Ja 4 High, with more seasonal signature shoes likely to show up before the end of the month.

Nike Sabrina 4 Halloween Release Date

The Nike Sabrina 4 “Halloween” is expected to release October 23, 2026 through Nike.com and select Nike Basketball retailers. Men’s sizing will retail for $145, while grade school pairs are priced at $120. Check out the official photos below.

Supreme x Martine Rose x Nike Dunk Low “Mike Tyson” Releases October 15th

Remember when Mike Tyson was all over Supreme clothing? Well, now his face is showing up on a Nike Dunk Low, thanks to a new project with London designer Martine Rose. The shoe is part of Supreme’s Fall/Winter 2026 boxing collection, which has plenty of Tyson references across the clothing, but only one sneaker in the whole lineup.

They went with black leather for the Dunk, then printed big, full-color pictures of Tyson across the outer sides and heels. There’s some gold “Supreme x Martine” lettering above the photos and more branding inside the shoes. Other than that, it’s still a regular Dunk Low, with most of the attention going to the Tyson graphics rather than any major changes to the shoe itself.

The clothing follows the same idea, with shearling coats and patchwork pieces carrying more boxing-related designs.

Supreme Nike Dunk Low Mike Tyson Release Date

The Supreme x Martine Rose x Nike Dunk Low “Mike Tyson” releases October 15, 2026, for $150. It’ll be sold in unisex sizes exclusively through Supreme’s website and stores.

Air Max logo can be found on the tongue with Nike Air being imprinted on the heel. A dark brown color tone will complete the midsole. Visible air can be seen on both the forefoot and heel.

Nike Giannis Freak 8 “Star Blue” Features a Blue Gradient Finish

Giannis Antetokounmpo is getting ready for the 2026-27 NBA season with the Miami Heat, where he’ll play alongside Bam Adebayo. Nike is continuing to roll out colorways of his latest signature basketball shoe, including the Nike Giannis Freak 8 “Star Blue,” expected to arrive during Fall/Winter 2026.

The shoe features a dark blue upper paired with a sculpted midsole that fades into lighter shades of blue. The gradient has an ocean-like appearance, although there hasn’t been an official theme tied to the colorway. Yellow accents show up on the tongue and lateral Swoosh logos, breaking up the darker blue across the upper.

The Giannis Freak 8 now features full-length ReactX foam instead of the Cushlon 3.0 used in the previous model. Nike also went with a curved herringbone pattern on the outsole to help with traction during quick cuts and changes of direction. Both updates focus on the movements Giannis makes throughout a game.

The “Star Blue” uses the same construction as the other Freak 8 releases, with the blue gradient and yellow branding separating it from earlier colorways. It also arrives as Antetokounmpo prepares to start a new chapter of his career in Miami.

The Nike Giannis Freak 8 “Star Blue” is expected to release during Fall 2026 at Nike.com and select retailers. The retail price is $115.

Nike Air Max Ecstasy Plus Surfaces in Desert Khaki and Geode Teal

The Nike Air Max Ecstasy Plus is getting a more neutral look for Fall/Winter 2026 with a new “Desert Khaki/Geode Teal” colorway. Most of the shoe stays in earthy shades, while teal and gold accents give the upper some color without taking over the design.

Desert Khaki covers the woven upper and continues through the midsole. Metallic Gold and Geode Teal appear across the long molded strips running along each side, with the teal sections showing a slight color shift from certain angles. Black fills in the tongue, laces, lining, and vented forefoot panel, along with the small Swoosh near the toe.

Around the back, the gold strips extend toward a black molded heel piece. A large visible Air unit runs beneath the heel and into the midfoot, while the outsole combines black rubber with khaki traction pods and small gold details.

The Nike Air Max Ecstasy Plus “Desert Khaki/Geode Teal” releases during Fall/Winter 2026 for $190 through ⁠Nike.com and select retailers.

Jordan Triangle “Black/Metallic Silver” Goes Icy Underfoot

The Jordan Triangle is getting another mostly black option after making its debut with Cameron Boozer. This pair mixes Black and Metallic Silver across the upper, then adds an icy sole underneath to break up the darker look. The Triangle uses ZoomX cushioning and was made to work for different types of players rather than one position or style of play.

Black covers almost everything up top, but there’s enough going on with the materials to keep it from looking flat. Leather runs around the toe and along the sides, while woven panels take up much of the midfoot. Metallic Silver piping follows the edges, and matching Jumpman logos show up on the tongue and heel. Jordan lettering runs down the pull tab at the back.

Most of the color is saved for the sole, where translucent blue rubber wraps around the bottom and creeps up along the sides. Silver speckles are scattered throughout the icy sections, with black rubber breaking things up underneath. A black Jumpman is also visible through the outsole.

The Jordan Triangle “Black/Metallic Silver” will be available through Nike and select Jordan Brand retailers for $115. A release date has yet to be announced.
