Jordan Trunner LX Balances “Multi-Color” and “Summit White”

Jordan Brand’s next Trunner LX comes with sport-performance and lifestyle aesthetics.

The Trunner LX is layered with quilted nylon, breathable mesh, and suede overlays throughout the upper, complemented by a suede heel strap in soft aqua. Bright Ceramic orange accents appear on the strap, insole, and midfoot for contrast. A Summit White midsole and gum medium brown outsole keep the color scheme from going overboard. The contrast really helps push the sneaker into lifestyle territory, with a casual and everyday-ready edge. It all feels pretty useful and practical too, so sneakerheads will dig the sneaker.

Pull tabs on the sides make for easy wear, a lacing system with adjustable straps will allow for a more customized fit, and reflective heel hits offer some visibility.

The Jordan Trunner LX “Multi-Color/Summit White” releases Fall 2025 for $135 through Nike.com and select retailers.

New Balance 9060 X “Black/Silver” Goes Futuristic

The New Balance 9060 “Black/Silver” is a fresh and futuristic take on NB’s heritage-driven design.

The upper features a striking two-tone contrast, starting with breathable black mesh underlays and wrapped with a stretchy silver TPU overlay. A large “N” logo appears on the side to complete the futuristic look.

The chunky sculpted midsole is where the 9060 is most present, delivering comfort and stability with ABZORB cushioning. The black and silver details flow through the heel stabilizer and stacked outsole, further complementing the futuristic appeal while also maintaining performance.

Additional notable details include a padded tongue with 9060 badge, diamond-pattern rubber outsole for grip, and New Balance branding at the heel and sole unit.

Air Jordan Mule Appears in “Malachite”

The Air Jordan Mule “Malachite” arrives in a new monochrome green colorway.

The upper is constructed from a sleek material and finished with simple, straight stitching and an accent metallic Air Jordan plaque, the first and most obvious notable feature. The oversized sole, meanwhile, offers height and sturdiness while making the silhouette a functional addition to the sneaker’s urban and relaxed-ready arsenal.

Non-basketball Jordan sneakers, such as sandals and slides, have long been part of the Jordan Brand sneaker arsenal. The Malachite edition of the mule falls in line with this legacy and offers its own take on casual footwear. It is, to that end, versatile enough for higher-tier ensembles as it is lower-key ones.

The Air Jordan Mule “Malachite” is available from Fall 2025 via Nike.com and at select retailers for $145 USD.

Nike Dunk Low GS Mixes Team Red and Sweet Beet

The Nike Dunk Low GS “Team Red” is a youth-exclusive full-color release for Fall 2025.

One of the Dunk’s strengths over the years has been making simple colorways pop. This release does not disappoint.

Leather uppers might look solid from afar, but a subtle pop of pink “Sweet Beet” overlays on a deep “Team Red” base makes for a higher-contrast look. Matching colorways for outsole, tongue, and lining give this sneaker an interestingly layered but still wearable aesthetic.

Younger sneaker enthusiasts will likely see this Dunk as a punchy take on classic varsity-style colorways. The play of different red tones also gives it a bit of attitude, but not so much that it can’t be worn almost any day. Details like this are likely to be appreciated by sneakerheads immediately.

The Nike Dunk Low GS “Team Red” will retail for $90 and releases Fall 2025 on Nike.com and through authorized retailers.

Kobe Bryant x Nike Air Force 1 Low “Linen” Releases Holiday 2025

UPDATE 9/17/25: Check out the first look at the Kobe Bryant x Nike Air Force 1 Low “Linen/University Blue” that pays homage to Kobe’s legacy. The silhouette is inspired by the 2007 “Kobe” AF1 and dusts off the classic portrait graphic on the heel with a modernized touch in its construction. Look for a release around Holiday 2025.

Original Story 3/27/25:
Nike is honoring Kobe Bryant’s legacy with the upcoming Air Force 1 Low “Linen/University Blue,” dropping Holiday 2025.

This sneaker serves as a convergence of two legacies: the Air Force 1 and Kobe Bryant himself. The pair is decked out in a linen leather upper, complete with bold, statement-making university blue soles. The shoe’s standout detail, however, is its homage to Kobe Bryant himself, as the heel panels sport a subtle portrait graphic in his honor. This graphic reference is an unmistakable lookback at the Kobe Bryant x Nike Air Force 1 “Kobe,” released way back in 2007, which similarly utilized a portrait design on the heel.

The 2007 Kobe Bryant x Nike Air Force 1 Low featuring a portrait design on the lateral heel.

The materials on this AF1 feel premium and purposeful, elevating the shoe well past the lifestyle spectrum. Look for icy blue outsole, Kobe-inspired custom insoles boasting both messaging and sheath logo, along with a matching blue shade to the lace dubrae. That’s attention to detail that sneakerheads will recognize in an instant.

Nike has crafted a number of limited releases that highlight Kobe’s storied career, and this drop carries on that legacy. This shoe revisits the portrait detail with more modern, cleaner finishes while remaining true to the AF1’s signature DNA. It’s a welcome combination of heritage and tribute, and it’s one of our favorite holiday 2025 drops.

Kobe Bryant Nike Air Force 1 Linen Release Date

The Kobe Bryant x Nike Air Force 1 Low “Linen” is set to release in November 2025 at select Nike Sportswear retailers and Nike.com. The retail price tag is set at $150 USD.

adidas Superstar Arrives With “London” Branding

The adidas Superstar “London” shines in the city of red buses and black cabs with its red-and-black makeover.

The upper is made of red suede and the stripes, eyestays, heel tab, and shell toe are in contrast black. A tartan sockliner also adds to the British theme within.

“London” written in gold appears below the Trefoil logos on both the tongue and heel. With the addition of the plaid hangtag, the new Superstar draws further connection to the city.

The use of premium suede and unique plaid accents on this pair helps set it apart as something special, while still retaining the Superstar’s heritage. That’s a type of detail sneakerheads in London and around the world will recognize.

The adidas Superstar “London” is set to release in September 2025 on adidas.com and selected retail partners.

Where previous city drops have leaned on color, this is a Superstar that truly utilizes motifs from London culture.

The sneaker features a smooth white leather base with clean black overlays.

Lapstone & Hammer x ASICS GEL-1130 “10th Anniversary” Releases September 20th

The Lapstone & Hammer x ASICS GEL-1130 “10th Anniversary” is a throwback-inspired sneaker to commemorate the boutique’s ten-year milestone. The exclusive ASICS GEL-1130 is a retro performance-inspired silhouette that is elevated for a more lifestyle-ready look and feel. The upcoming release from the Philadelphia-based boutique pays homage to the store’s 10-year legacy.

Cream mesh uppers feature metallic silver overlays and premium gold accents that are juxtaposed with more graphic black details. The modern yet vintage colorway seems appropriate for a store like Lapstone & Hammer and is very much in line with the silhouettes ASICS has been pushing since the inception of their innovative performance shoe line. We love how this collaboration seems to straddle both a sport and lifestyle aesthetic, effectively fusing the two.

The 10-year anniversary festivities don’t stop there, as Lapstone & Hammer will release an apparel capsule that complements the release of their ASICS GEL-1130 collaboration. An assortment of custom Icarus Football kits and headwear from Mitchell & Ness, both featuring a custom anniversary logo, make for a clever way to connect sneakers to sport and culture — which is exactly what Lapstone has been doing over the past decade.

Lapstone & Hammer founder Brian Nadav tells us, “The ASICS GEL-1130 has been a huge part of the store since our humble beginnings, with many of our original staff members sporting the silhouette. We were excited to take on this classic performance piece for our store’s 10-year anniversary release.” Imagery from the Lapstone x ASICS GEL-1130 “10th Anniversary” campaign is centered around Philadelphia’s “One Way Crew”, further anchoring the project to the store’s community. Sneakerheads will no doubt love these subtle nuances that keep the story grounded and relatable to the culture’s youth.

Release Date & Where To BUY

The Lapstone & Hammer x ASICS GEL-1130 “10th Anniversary” will be available September 20, 2025. Pairs will retail for $100 USD and be available exclusively in-store at Lapstone’s Philadelphia location and online at lapstoneandhammer.com.

Nike Air Max Plus Freshens Up In “White/Turbo Green”

This Air Max Plus starts with a simple white mesh upper. This stretches over the shoe’s iconic wavy TPU cage. Silver reflective details provide a bit of shimmer when needed.

Turbo Green is the main color in contrast to the white upper. Bright green appears on the lace loops, heel badge, and midfoot shank. Visible Tuned Air units in the forefoot and heel offer cushioning comfort.

The midsole is a white base that contrasts well with the black outsole. Other details include a mini Swoosh on the sides. The midfoot plate also has a subtle gradient. This pair uses a bit of white and a punchy green colorway. The sneaker is both versatile and eye-catching.

The Nike Air Max Plus “White/Turbo Green” drops Fall 2025 on Nike.com and select retailers for $180 USD.

New Balance 9060 X Returns In A Futuristic Duo

New Balance is about to introduce two daring additions to the 9060 line, and they will be available starting Fall 2025.

Sporting “Green/Black” and “Silver/Black” colorways, both packs are made striking by gradient overlays on a black mesh and synthetic upper.

The hulking ABZORB midsole maintains its signature sci-fi aesthetic and is finished mostly in dark hues, but sprinkled with pops of green and silver from the uppers. It’s a small but well-noticed detail by sneakerheads who will surely appreciate how it unifies the rest of the aesthetic. With its oversized cushioning and daring paneling, the 9060 is anything but your average heritage-meets-forward design.

Retailing at $150, both 9060 X colorways will arrive Fall 2025 through NewBalance.com and select retailers.

DTLR Exclusive New Balance 990v6 “Cornerstone” Releases September 26th

DTLR and New Balance continue their fruitful partnership with the release of DTLR Exclusive New Balance 990v6 “Cornerstone”. The retailer’s third 2025 exclusive, the 990v6 iteration is another bright and brash collaboration that adds to DTLR and New Balance’s ongoing history of standout 99X releases.

The “Cornerstone” colorway dons a full palette of bright and neutral elements. The upper of the shoe is dressed in a tri-color base of white, grey and black with added bright Volt green accents on the signature “N” logo, eyelets, and tongue branding. Yellow details can also be seen on the laces and heel tab, while thick blue overlays are peppered across the upper of the shoe, creating visual contrast that crosses the design into bold statement territory. On the underside of the shoe, responsive FuelCell cushioning is layered for a soft and comfortable ride, while a white, grey and black midsole and black-and-red outsole round out the styling and provide traction and stability.

DTLR is a relatively recent partner of New Balance that has quickly cemented themselves as one of the company’s most prolific collaborators. So far in 2024, the two have released five exclusives between them, including the 2002R “Purple Noir” and 9060 “Cyan Burst”. A few months ago, further styles like the 1906R “Moon Sign” and children’s exclusive 530 expanded the collaboration’s reach over several silhouettes. This latest 990v6 project is another great example of that strategy, and helps DTLR continue telling its loud and brash seasonal story through releases in the 99X family.

Release Date & Where To Buy

The DTLR Exclusive New Balance 990v6 “Cornerstone” will release on September 26, 2025, exclusively at DTLR’s online store and in-store locations. It will be available in men’s sizing and retails for $200 USD.

The Air Jordan MVP 92 “Sail/Jade Horizon” is another muted take on Jordan Brand’s line of hybrids.

Covered in Sail leather with mesh overlays, the two-tone colorway stays simple while incorporating highlights of Jade Horizon and Midnight Green. The sculpted Khaki midsole and gum outsole complete the stylish and sturdy profile with Nike Air branding on the heel harkening back to Jordan’s heyday. Longtime sneakerheads will definitely notice.

This down-to-earth color scheme is also more subtle and could be more accessible than previous louder releases. It is the perfect shade for going from the court to kicking it.

As expected, the Air Jordan MVP 92 “Sail/Jade Horizon” release date is Fall 2025, and will retail at Nike.com and select retailers for $145 USD.

atmos x adidas ZX 8000 “G-SNK 11” Brings Back Glow-in-the-Dark Flair

With so many reissue and archival sneakers launching these days, the atmosphere of nostalgia hangs heavily over the modern sneaker scene. But nostalgia can evolve, and the most exciting collabs are those that carry new energy into the next chapter. That’s what we see here in the atmos x adidas ZX 8000 “G-SNK 11”.

The G-SNK series first launched in 2011 and was a notable entry in adidas’ diverse history of collaborations, thanks to snake skin overlays and fearless colorways. It became a signature series for the brand over the next decade. After the third entry in the series in 2020, the series has hit the gas pedal in the past five years and its already made it to the eleventh iteration.

If previous G-SNK models are any indication, this chapter should be no different in its knack for striking designs. Luckily for sneakerheads with less adventurous taste, this version tones things down—at least during daylight hours. A white mesh base is accented by mint green overlays, blue Three Stripes and pops of red. It’s all a balanced contrast, and the off-white midsole further speaks to classic ZX silhouettes of old. But sneakerheads know the real fun happens after dark, as glow-in-the-dark overlays are strategically applied to the snakeskin, bathing the panels in light. It’s a masterful way to nod to the G-SNK series’ most distinct calling card, while keeping things as eye-catching as ever.

Compared to the previous wild-and-wooly designs in the series, the “G-SNK 11” is actually quite wearable, which is really where the detail is that sneakerheads will appreciate. This is the type of sneaker that can be both a daily driver and a collectible all at once.

The atmos x adidas ZX 8000 “G-SNK 11” releases on September 26, 2025 at atmos Japan. Raffle entries are open now via the atmos app.

Jordan Luka 4 “Hčerka” Honors Luka’s Daughter

Luka Dončić is a superstar with video game cameos and magazine covers in his portfolio, but a family-first man through and through. That’s reflected in his newest signature sneaker, the Jordan Luka 4 “Hčerka”. Translated, the name means “daughter” in Slovenian and the drop is a nod to Dončić welcoming one in late 2023.

The pair arrives covered in bright Flash Crimson and Sunset Pulse for a vibrant, yet sentimental look. An intricate layered upper features tonal stitching and slick overlays that culminate in a big Cushlon midsole for pop. Black Jumpman branding on the heel and Luka’s own logo on the outsole add contrasting touches to keep it court ready.

As with previous storytelling colorways like the “Lake Bled,” Luka links his personal narrative to his play shoes with the “Hčerka.” The colorway also seems more adaptable to both lifestyle and court looks than some. It’s at least lifestyle-friendly while still being capable on the hardwood. For the Luka faithful, that lineage connection with some hoops credibility is a heartstring-tugging combo.

The Jordan Luka 4 “Hčerka” will release on October 13, 2025, in full family sizing. Adult sizes cost $135 USD. The retro will be available at select Jordan Brand retail locations in-store and online and Nike.com.
