UPDATE 8/1/25: The Air Max DN8 “Sundial” is now available on Nike.com.

Original Story 7/20/25:
The Nike Air Max DN8 is back — and this time, we’re talking bold color and heavy tech. Introducing the new “Sundial” colorway.

From upper to tongue, the sneakers are doused in neon orange. A dose of contrast is introduced by way of the Dark Smoke Grey midsole, inside of which sits eight Dynamic Air pods from Nike’s next-gen lineup. The system offers eight pods from heel to toe, delivering seamless movement and a superior energy return.

The upper is lightweight and breathable, a blend of ripstop mesh and contoured overlays that accentuate movement. The profile is modern, but also references previous iterations of Air Max. The design lines are lifted from the aerodynamic-focused age of the early 2000s. Mini Swooshes and a basic tongue logo keep design details basic, so you can let the tech and colorway do the talking.

Flip the silhouette over and you’ll see red traction pods and a transparent shank plate, another visual cue that this model is serious about getting the job done on the ground. As for comfort, it’s among the most responsive Air systems to come from Nike in recent memory, firm where it needs to be, plush where you want it to be.

The Nike Air Max DN8 “Sundial” will release August 1, 2025 on SNKRS and with select Nike Sportswear retailers. Price tags are set at $200 USD in men’s sizing.

If you like your sneakers loud and your silhouettes futuristic, this might just be your favorite DN8 drop yet.

Nike updates the Shox TL with a vibrant “Ice Blue” colorway for Fall 2025. Inspired by the shoe’s early 2000s origins, this pair of sneakers dials up retro design elements. A black mesh upper and molded overlays appear in reflective Ice Blue.

A more technical and performance-driven heritage adds to the modernized aesthetic with flash-ready accents. Shox columns in black form the sole and bring the silhouette’s classic bounce and forward-looking appeal.

Nike released reflective sneakers in the past, but this colorway appears bolder than previous Shox TL drops. The icy blue appears bright and reflective when near a light source, giving this pair an aggressive and high-visibility look.

Nike branding on the tongue and heel add a sense of familiarity, while the molded cage nods to the OG’s aesthetic.

The Nike Shox TL “Reflective Ice Blue” will release Fall 2025 at Nike.com and select retailers for $190 USD.

This updated pair feels fresh while still leaning into nostalgia.

The all-leather upper in New Balance’s fall 2025 “Elevated Essentials” 1500 is a different take on New Balance’s timeless silhouette. In contrast to the model’s traditional suede and mesh upper, the “Elevated Essentials” 1500 features a luxurious all-leather upper. Finished in black throughout, from the toe box to the heel, the shoe has an elegant and minimalist appearance.

Strategic white embroidered branding contrasts with the vamp, tongue, and quarter. Signature New Balance grey accents appear on the forefoot outsole and rear midsole, grounding the colorway in the brand’s NB heritage. It’s a clean take that balances premium vibes with everyday wearability.

The all-black upper gives this sneaker a slightly dressier feel, ideal for sneakerheads who want to add some versatility to their shoe game. It’s a lowkey flex—with just enough detail to make heads turn.

Retailing at $250, the New Balance 1500 “Elevated Essentials” drops in Fall 2025 at NewBalance.com and select retailers.

The Bodega x PUMA Suede is a classic sneaker with a DIY upgrade. Encased in forest green suede with natural brown rubber, the sneakers stay in a relatively neutral color palette but dial up the details.

A cord and loop system replace the traditional Formstrip and allow the wearer to lace up the shoe any way they choose. Some configurations resemble the Formstrip, while others are more freeform, playing with the idea of just how playful this feature can be.

Elsewhere, Bodega incorporates details like a cross-stitched tongue tab, stitched eyelets, a natural cork footbed with the Bodega stamp, a soft yellow lining, gold foil branding, and glossy black eyelets.

The clean design is understated from a distance but detailed and personalized in close-up.

The Bodega x PUMA Suede will release August 9th at Bodega.com and at a select group of retailers worldwide.

Skepta x PUMA Skope “Black” Releases August 14th

Jul 31, 2025

UK grime legend Skepta continues his momentum in fashion with the upcoming Skepta x PUMA Skope “Black”. Building on his successful run with the Skope silhouette, this latest version drops the mesh for a sleeker, fully blacked-out leather upper.

Known for his eye for detail, Skepta elevates the Skope with luxury-grade materials. The silhouette keeps its trail-inspired DNA with a chunky outsole and aggressive midsole carving, but now gets a clean, monochromatic finish. Hexagon Skepta logos appear on the tongue and insole, while hits of red and green PUMA branding add subtle contrast.

This isn’t Skepta’s first foray into sneaker design. Earlier in 2025, he dropped the “White Pack” and a series of mid-top Skope colorways that leaned into rugged, outdoorsy vibes. The Skepta x PUMA Skope Black colorway, on the other hand, is a departure in that sense, the design is sleeker, more minimal, and primed for the streets.

If you’ve followed Skepta’s previous collaborations with Nike, you’ll know his design work never misses. This all-black sneaker is no exception as it manages to look more mature, more refined and better constructed for longevity.

The Skepta x PUMA Skope “Black” releases on August 14, 2025, at select PUMA retailers and PUMA.com. Retail price is set at $160 USD.
