Original Story 7/25/25:
Nike Basketball is getting festive with a holiday-ready release of the Nike Ja 3 “Scratch 3.0” (Turbo Green), a new colorway added to Ja Morant’s signature collection. The high-performance sneaker arrives in time for the end-of-year festivities with an aesthetically sharp look.

The primary hue of the upper is Turbo Green, with textured logo graphics in black scattered throughout. The side and outsole are both wrapped in a contrasting University Red Swoosh for visual pop. Matching red embroidery on the heel reads “TWELVE,” a reference to Morant’s jersey number.

ZoomX foam from Nike sits below the foot, providing maximum responsiveness and energy return. The Ja 3 remains one of the more bouncy basketball shoes on the market thanks to this feature. Meanwhile, the outsole tread pattern provides multidirectional traction for swift cuts and explosive maneuvers.

Morant’s signature line has been a consistently strong product with a nice balance of performance technology and personal narrative. This latest iteration lands at a perfect time with a festive color scheme and aggressive ZoomX construction.

adidas Anthony Edwards 2 “Year of the Horse” Celebrates Lunar New Year

Oct 22, 2025

UPDATE 10/22/25: A detailed look at the adidas AE 2 “Chinese New Year” celebrating the “Year of the Horse” have been added below. A release is expected in February 2206.

Original Story 10/20/25:
Anthony Edwards and adidas Basketball are kicking off 2026 with a special edition of his second signature shoe — the adidas AE 2 “Year of the Horse”. Taking design cues from the Chinese zodiac, the release furthers adidas’ yearly practice of storytelling through their sneakers with a nod to Asian culture, all while staying true to their signature performance construction.

The colour scheme of the pair speaks of class and sophistication with its metallic silver, tan, and baby blue palette, accented by gold trim. Silver mesh panels come around the sides, with reflective details to finish the look, and creamy overlays that serve as a visual contrast. A light blue inner bootie softens the look and adds a seasonal pop of colour to the shoe, and the tongue has a gold horse emblem stitched to it, paying homage to the Lunar New Year and what the animal represents — strength, freedom, and ambitiousness.

The AE 2 keeps many of the technical elements of the existing line, including its sculpted midsole and aggressive traction for a sharp feel on the court. There are a few small updates, like a seamless transition plate and better heel padding for a smoother ride without Edwards’ explosive feel getting lost. It’s those types of details that set this line apart.

Following the AE 1 “Year of the Snake” edition, this new drop marks a stylish evolution in both form and storytelling. The combination of cultural heritage and performance makes the “Year of the Horse” one of the most collectible AE 2 releases yet.

adidas AE 2 Year of the Horse Release Date

Expect the adidas Anthony Edwards 2 “Year of the Horse” to launch February 2026 through adidas.com and select retailers worldwide.

This adidas Anthony Edwards 2 brings back adidas’ Equipment vibe with a new basketball spin.

Merging classic shades and fresh design accents, the colorway is a mix of EQT Green, Core Black and Warm Vanilla for a clean retro feel.

Down in the rubber, the translucent outsole and teal inserts provide ultimate traction and grip. A visible TPU shank works to offer torsional control for added stability for players such as Edwards who love to make their money with explosive cuts and dynamic athleticism.

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.

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.

Chet Holmgren and Nike have announced the upcoming Nike KD 18 “Thunder & Reign”, a player-exclusive colorway that is set to be released in 2026. This latest collab is a nod to the rise of Holmgren as one of Oklahoma City’s young superstars, embodying the energy of the Thunder brand with a stormy color palette and a savage texture blend.

The KD 18 uses a deep purple colorway accented by animal-print overlays, producing a wild but luxurious aesthetic. The shoe features a mesh upper for a lightweight feel, sculpted overlays for added toughness and a Zoom Air midsole for responsive cushioning, keeping with the bouncing tradition of the KD line. The insole boasts Holmgren’s signature “CH7” logo while a black glossy Swoosh can be seen at the heel, both subtle and delicious details that make the shoe an ultra-rare and sure-to-be-exclusive release.

The storm of energy from the pair of sneakers and luxe details of their design also pairs well with Holmgren’s own silent-but-lethal gameplay. Nike continues to grow its legacy of player editions that pay homage to the NBA and the stories of its rising stars through sneakers that feel connected to their performances.

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

Oct 21, 2025

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 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

Oct 21, 2025

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

By

Mario Briguglio

Oct 21, 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.
