Air Jordan 1 High OG “Elephant Print Swoosh” Releases December 2025

The Air Jordan 1 High OG “Elephant Print Swoosh” is a December 2025 release that reimagines a classic silhouette through a bold, creative lens. It marries heritage with modern updates to stand out from previous Air Jordan 1 releases.

Shaped in Sail, University Red, Pale Ivory, and Coconut Milk, the shoe has a versatile neutral canvas accented by striking details. It features the elephant print Swoosh, one of Jordan Brand’s most recognizable design patterns, and embroidered Jumpman logos on the toe box in place of a traditional leather patch.

There is also a milky translucent outsole that conceals large “Flight” lettering underfoot, a connection to Jordan’s timeless branding. Vintage-inspired exposed foam tongues and red Nike Air tags/heel stitching offer just enough contrast to the muted palette. It’s the blend of old and new, known and unexpected, that make this release so exciting.

Fans of the Air Jordan 1 who love a release that tells a story will be intrigued by this one’s many cross-era references. The elephant print is a direct callback to Jordan’s golden era, while the embroidered Jumpman logo has a more experimental, future-forward feel. We imagine this pair will fuel much discussion in the sneaker community.

Air Jordan 1 Elephant Print Swoosh Release Date

Union x Fragment x Air Jordan 1 High OG “Varsity Red/Sport Royal” Releases February 2026

UPDATE 9/27/25: First look at the Fragment x Union x Air Jordan 1 High OG “Varsity Red/Sport Royal” has surfaced via @chilung87 on IG. The sneaker release is expected in February 2026 with a retail price of $205 USD.

Original Story:
Two of Jordan Brand’s best collaborators have reunited for the brand’s roster for 2026, as Union LA and Fragment Design are back together again. The collection consists of three Air Jordan 1 Highs, headlined by the new “Top 3″ (Varsity Red/Sport Royal) edition.

The three Air Jordan 1s in the Union Fragment Jordan 1 collection come in a variety of styles and colorways. The “Black/White”, will reportedly be the most rare of the three as a Japan-excluisve, with only 4,700 pairs on the market. The “Sport Royal” version has the AJ1 “Neutral Grey” as a base and the AJ1 “Royal” as an inspiration, with a drop of 15,000 pairs. The “Top 3” is the centerpiece of the pack, as it borrows heavily from the AJ1 “Bred” and the Fragment’s 2014 Jordan 1 collaboration, which has 44,000 pairs.

The “Top 3” edition culls from some of the most sought-after Air Jordan 1s in history. The original AJ1 “Bred” in 1985 connected Michael Jordan to his Chicago Bulls heritage, and the 2014 Fragment x Jordan 1, which mashed up the “Royal” and “Black Toe,” quickly became a modern-day grail. Union’s take on this colorway has visible stitching, chalked edges, and their signature “UN/LA” label, taking the silhouette in a new, deconstructed direction. The collision of these two worlds is a huge reason why this release is so appealing.

Union Fragment Air Jordan 1 Top 3 Release Date

The Union x Fragment x Air Jordan 1 High OG “Varsity Red/Sport Royal” will release in February 2026 for $205 USD. It will launch through Union LA, Fragment Design, Jordan Brand retailers, and possibly on SNKRS.

adidas Consortium x Mercedes-AMG October 2025 Collection Blends Motorsport Aesthetics

adidas Consortium x Mercedes-AMG is back with a bold three-shoe collection.

Featuring the ZX 8500, Megaride GT, and adiStar Control 5, the collection mashes automotive and sneaker design while drawing inspiration from Mercedes’ racing dominance in the ’90s and remixing that into a modern context.

The ZX 8500 is a throwback silhouette that is making its second comeback after its first release through OVERKILL in 2021. A hybrid between the ZX 8000 and ZX 9000, this sneaker also has limited-release appeal for collectors. Leading the pack is a black-and-red colorway that mimics team racing liveries, while a muted all-grey color scheme is laid-back for everyday wear.

The Megaride GT, on the other hand, has more futurism in its design language. The Y2K-inspired upper features chrome trim and pops with red and black details. The outsole has six pods, split into six segments and sitting atop each other to showcase the adidas propulsion technology. This feature can also be seen on adidas’ Predator line recently.

Lastly, the adiStar Control 5 is hanging on to its reliable cushioning system, but it ditches its roots in runners for layered mesh uppers and undulating lines to freshen up the silhouette’s appearance.

Release Date & Where To Buy

The adidas Consortium x Mercedes-AMG will be available for footwear and apparel from October 5th on Asphalt Gold and October 7th on adidas.com.

The New Balance 990v6 “Driftwood” Offers A Refined, Earthy Update

The New Balance 990v6 “Driftwood” isn’t flashy but that’s the point. This is an earthy update to the legendary Made in USA series.

The model is a made for fall weather thanks to swapping the v5’s suede mudguard and eyestay for premium nubuck. The leather underlays are in a custom olive-khaki while off-white mesh and the reflective “N” logo provide a pop of contrast.

While the previous pairs from the series played it safe with white and grey midsoles, this is one for all the natural tones. The midsole colors are a mix of beige and tan for an overall subdued but versatile look. That small but intentional adjustment makes this feel like an elevated design compared to some of the recent releases in the 990v6 series.

The 3D-Printed adidas ClimaCool Surfaces in Pink

The Adidas ClimaCool “Pink” colorway is the newest to be spotted in the company’s growing 3D-printed range. The futuristic ClimaCool has previously launched in a few different colors but this bright iteration could be the boldest of the lot so far.

The silhouette itself is praised for its super-breathable nature, offering up a laceless, lightweight 3D-printed upper. Over the last year pairs have dropped in limited quantities, and have built momentum for the model, indicating a possible wider release in the near future. Now Ricardo Nunes from SneakersBR has shared a closer look at the vibrant Pink iteration, with bold black Three Stripes branding, offering a preview of what may be on the way.

As this is the latest sample spotted, it’s unknown if we will see this exact color land in stores, however, its release would inject some new life and bolder colorways in the spotlight to shine on the models futuristic construction.

While there isn’t an official drop date, the signs are pointing to a possible Spring 2026 launch. Keep an eye out for further updates as they look to bring more 3D-printed shoes in the brand’s range to more feet next year.

The JD Sports-Exclusive Nike Air Max 95 “Apple Green” Returns Spring 2026

The Nike Air Max 95 “Apple Green” is officially returning in 2026. First a JD Sports exclusive back in 2010, this colorway became a cult classic among collectors desperate for its scarce blend of accents.

From UK retailer Block P, this retro brings back the OG design with a few small updates. The upper features the classic gradient of Anthracite, White, and Iron Grey, a look that defined many iconic Air Max 95 releases. Hits of Photo Blue and Action Green highlight the branding, lace loops, and visible Air units, keeping the colorway as fresh as its debut run. That’s the detail longtime fans will immediately notice.

One of the biggest changes comes underfoot. Nike ups the pair’s comfort game by giving the Air Max heel bubble a size increase. The subtle tweak gives the sneaker a more modern fit while staying true to its OG DNA. Purists might want the OG configuration exactly as-is, but this update gives the retro a modern twist without subtracting from the nostalgia factor.

Back in 2010, limited availability made the “Green Apple” one of the harder finds in the Air Max 95 lineup. Its comeback is a chance for both veterans and newer sneaker fans to secure a piece of that history. Whether or not it stays tied to JD Sports remains to be seen, but the excitement around this drop is undeniable.

The Nike Air Max 95 “Apple Green” will release in Spring 2026 with a retail price of $190 USD.
