Crocs Brings Bluey’s World To Footwear With A Kids-Only Clog Pack

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Bluey’s world is making a rare jump from the screen into footwear in a way that feels deliberate rather than decorative. Crocs is extending its family-friendly playbook with a two-shoe pack that treats the cartoon less like a license and more like a scene worth preserving.

Both pairs carry the same group graphic across the forefoot, placing Bluey, Bingo, and their friends together in one clear scene. One version stays clean in soft blue and green, giving it a calm, outdoorsy tone. The other leans playful, blending sparkly pink, lavender, and teal that shifts in the light. Illustrated garden landscapes wrap the sidewalls on both, while small 3D character charms sit quietly on the heel strap.

Underneath, the silhouette keeps everything familiar. The lightweight foam body remains, along with the ventilated toe box and pivoting strap. Traction is identical to the iconic tread pattern we know and love on the Crocs Classic.

The Bluey x Crocs Classic Clog Pack will arrive February 24, 2026 in preschool/kid and grade-school sizes at Crocs.com and select retailers for $50 and $55.

PUMA Pushes The Speedcat Wedge Higher in Leather

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

On shelves filled with slim runners, PUMA is pushing in the opposite direction. Height, volume, and attitude define this moment. The brand’s latest leather two-pack leans into that approach, standing taller than the original Speedcat ever did. The PUMA Speedcat Wedge “Leather” lands March 1, 2026, and it makes its presence felt.

The off-white pair keeps things sanitized and reserved. Soft leather makes up most of the upper with light suede lining the lateral stripe. Underfoot lies a dark brown rubber outsole that simply keeps things low-key. Nothing is too far thought out, but nothing is minimalist either.

The black version takes a sharper turn. Smooth leather wraps the upper, and textured brown suede cuts across the sidewall. The contrast reads refined instead of loud. Plush collars add structure around the ankle, and the wide midfoot strap locks the fit in place.

The fit of this shoe also feels cleaner than past Speedcat Wedges. Previous iterations felt more leisurely. This release feels curated, almost designed, yet still maintains the oversized wedge silhouette.

The PUMA Speedcat Wedge “Leather” will release March 1, 2026 on PUMA.com and at select retailers.

The Nike Air Max Plus Gets Its Own “Neon” Colorway

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

When late-’90s Air Max energy starts circulating again, it usually shows up with a brighter pulse. Run crews, archive imagery, and Y2K silhouettes have kept that voltage alive, so this release arrives feeling timely rather than nostalgic.

On this Nike Air Max Plus GS “Neon,” the familiar idea returns through a softer lens. A Pearl Grey gradient mesh forms the base, while the signature wavy TPU cage lays clean, layered lines across the forefoot and midfoot.

The dark grey nubuck mudguard and heel add weight and substance to the design while sitting lower. Neon green pops trim the Swoosh and accents the tongue badge while shining through visible Air units, while keeping things tasteful with an otherwise black midsole.

On the ground you’ll find black rubber outsole paired with Neon pods that mimic the midfoot plate for a cohesive detail that isn’t overplayed. It feels more like a clever next step in a classic colorway than a hyper-detailed remix.

The Nike Air Max Plus GS “Neon” will release Spring 2026 through Nike.com and select retailers.

Drake’s OVO McDonald’s Meal Reveal Set For February 17th

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Drake appears poised to become the latest artist to receive his own McDonald’s meal, based on newly surfaced posters circulating in Toronto. The visuals merge classic McDonald’s branding with Drake’s OVO owl motif, alongside the phrase “Where Night Owls Land,” a clear reference to his late-night persona and NOCTA ecosystem.

The posters, which feature McDonald’s iconography layered with OVO’s gold owl logo, suggest something official rather than a fan-made concept. A small “Coming 2.17” tag appears at the bottom of the artwork, pointing toward a potential reveal or announcement on February 17th. The aesthetic leans heavily into Drake’s signature branding, blending fast-food familiarity with his nocturnal, luxury-leaning identity.

If confirmed, the collaboration would place Drake alongside a short list of celebrities who’ve partnered with McDonald’s on “Famous Orders.” Previous participants include Travis Scott, J Balvin, BTS, and even Michael Jordan, making this one of the most culturally significant McDonald’s tie-ins in recent years.

For now, details remain scarce, but the Toronto posters strongly indicate that something is coming. February 17th could mark the moment Drake officially joins McDonald’s growing roster of artist collaborations.

Air Jordan 7 “Miro” Returns June 2026

By
Mario Briguglio
-

Jordan Brand is bringing back the Air Jordan 7 “Miro” for the first time since 2008, with a release set for June 2026. The return carries added historical weight, tying the shoe to Michael Jordan’s 1992 Barcelona Olympics run with the Dream Team and the artistic legacy of Spanish painter and sculptor Joan Miró.

The color blocking draws inspiration from Miró’s famous Barcelona sculpture Dona i Ocell (Woman and Bird), which explains the mix of bold primary tones scattered across the design. While the silhouette keeps the familiar AJ7 shape, the release blends clean white leather overlays with darker nubuck underlays, letting the colorful abstract accents stand out.

Finishing details reinforce the Olympic connection, including Jordan’s number 9 on the heel and a translucent outsole featuring gold and flag-inspired graphics.

After years of fans asking for classic Jordan 7 colorways to return, “Miro” marks one of the most meaningful retro revivals in the model’s recent history.

Air Jordan 7 “Miro” 2026 Release Date

The Air Jordan 7 “Miro” will release June 27, 2026 at select Jordan Brand retailers and Nike.com. Pricing has yet to be announced.

Shoe Palace’s Sneaker Lineup For 2026 All-Star Weekend

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Los Angeles operates on another level when All-Star rolls into town. Sidewalks flood with people. Speakers spill bass into the streets. Everyone walks a mile a minute. Shoe Palace is feeling the city up with this weekend’s release.

Mirroring how expansive All-Star Weekend actually is, Shoe Palace All-Star 2026 spans six shops across Little Tokyo, Melrose, Inglewood, Hollywood, Compton, Fairfax, and DTLA. Each serves as a neighborhood hub themed around adidas, Jordan Brand, Nike, Puma, and New Balance. As you’d expect, sneakers are featured prominently, but music, apparel, and culture fill out each store to feel more like destinations than your average release.

Highlights are plentiful. From Stranger Things Foamposites to the Victor Solomon x Nike collaboration to Willy Chavarria’s adidas Harden Vol. 10. There’s also a Kobe 6 Protro “All-Star 3D”, Swarovski x Air Jordan 1 “Vast Grey”, and Air Jordan 6 “Bin 23” joining later in the week. Expect more collaborative storytelling like this as opposed to just random drop drops.

The event runs this weekend at six Shoe Palace locations across Los Angeles. They will be announcing the locations on their Instagram page.

Where to Buy Nike’s Most Exclusive All-Star Drops in Los Angeles

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Traffic is already heavy downtown, but starting Thursday night, it’s about to get even louder. With basketball, music and sneakers colliding all over LA this NBA All-Star Weekend, Nike is making fans jump around neighborhoods to experience it all.

At The Shaw, the SNKRS Cafeteria becomes the weekend’s hub, mixing film screenings, tournaments, and some of the most coveted releases in the building. Stranger Things Foamposites, All-Star footwear, and Victor Solomon’s trio of LA-inspired designs sit alongside a public 11th Ave Market highlighting Circulate and Compton Skate Club, making the space feel equal parts marketplace and meeting point.

Inglewood gets its own spotlight with the Jordan Brand House, built around athlete appearances and limited product rather than spectacle. Meanwhile, Converse turns Sunset Boulevard into The Shai Lounge for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander’s Luxe Truffle launch, and JD Sports caps Friday with a street block party that leans music, community, and energy over retail.

The Nike NBA All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles runs February 13–14 across The Shaw (Downtown LA), Inglewood, and West Hollywood—full details and releases via Nike SNKRS.

Nike PG 1 “Ferocity” Returns Holiday 2026 (Asia-Only Release Possible)

By
Mario Briguglio
-

Nike is preparing to bring back the Nike PG 1 “Ferocity” for Holiday 2026, with early signs suggesting the release may be limited to Asia. Paul George’s first signature model has quietly resurfaced years after the PG line appeared to end, making its return feel unexpected and notable for longtime basketball sneaker fans. The “Ferocity” colorway draws from Indiana Pacers road colors, while its brighter accents subtly nod to George’s passion for fishing, giving the design a personal layer beyond team ties.

While George has indicated that the PG 1 will land in China around mid-January, there has been little to no confirmation or imagery tied to a U.S. release. That uncertainty has fueled speculation that this retro run could be region-locked, which would be an unusual move for a legacy basketball model.

For now, the Nike PG 1 “Ferocity” remains one of the more intriguing retros on the horizon as more in-hand looks continue to surface.

Nike’s Latest College PE Gives Texas Longhorns Their Own KD 18

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Under the bright lights of college arenas, burnt orange still carries weight, especially when Kevin Durant’s name is nearby. His relationship with Texas has always lived somewhere between memory and movement, showing up in shoes that feel like quiet reminders rather than loud tributes. That history sets the stage before any design details even appear.

Inside that context arrives the Nike KD 18 “Texas Longhorns”—a player exclusive created for the University of Texas men’s basketball program. The build leans into clean orange-and-white blocking, while a bold Longhorn logo lands on the heel where cameras naturally linger. Reflective overlays add a late-game flash, suggesting a slight evolution toward more expressive team makeups within the KD line.

Still, this pair is not built for retail. It’s meant for the roster, the road, and those Kodak moments only players get. That exclusivity speaks less to scarcity and more to how Nike Basketball now handles college storytelling through curated, team-first projects.

The Nike KD 18 “Texas” has no release date as its an exclusive to University of Texas athletes.

Ronnie Fieg Reveals Kith x Nike KD 18 “Air Max 95” Friends & Family Exclusive

By
Mario Briguglio
-

UPDATE 2/11/26: Ronnie Fieg has now shared a full set of detailed images of the Kith x Nike KD 18 “Air Max 95” on his Instagram, captioning the post “RF for KD.” The closer looks highlight the premium suede paneling across the upper, Kith wordmarks subtly debossed into the grey layers, and the bright neon accents that echo classic Air Max 95 styling. As of now, the pair remains labeled as Friends and Family of KD and RF, with no public release expected.

Original Story 1/30/26:
Some projects are built for shelves, not shelves-in-stores. That line gets clearer with this Friends & Family exclusive Kith x Nike KD 18 “Air Max 95” from Ronnie Fieg, who has quietly reworked Kevin Durant’s latest signature model through a lens rooted in ‘90s running history.

Instead of the standard upper, layered greys flow across the shoe in a gradient that mirrors Sergio Lozano’s iconic runner. A subtle subway-tile texture weaves through the panels, adding a New York cue without pushing branding to the surface.

The tongue merges KD’s initials with an oval badge that directly echoes the Air Max 95, while the insole continues that crossover with co-branded graphics tied back to Kith. Neon accents land sparingly, reinforcing the inspiration rather than recreating it outright.

This approach fits Fieg’s history. His appreciation for the Air Max 95 “Neon” previously surfaced on the Air Pippen 1 “Neon,” another Friends & Family-only concept. Like that pair, the KD 18 reads as an archive piece—carefully built, highly referential, and intentionally out of reach.

Although Fieg has worked within Nike Basketball before, mainly around LeBron James, this Kith x Nike KD 18 feels closer to personal expression than product strategy.

The Kith x Nike KD 18 “Air Max 95” is a Friends & Family exclusive with no public release planned and will not be available at retail.

PSG x Air Jordan 6 “Metallic Silver” Releases February 24th

By
Mario Briguglio
-

UPDATE 2/11/26: The Paris Saint-Germain x Air Jordan 6 PSG “Metallic Silver” is officially set to release on February 24th, 2026 via SNKRS for $215 USD.

Original Story 10/24/25:
Jordan Brand and Paris Saint-Germain have extended their partnership, with the Air Jordan 6 PSG arriving in 2026 as part of the 35th anniversary of the Jordan 6. Coming on the heels of the Air Jordan 5 PSG dropping later this year, Jordan and PSG are continuing their relationship through 2026 and the Air Jordan 6, bringing one of Jordan’s most iconic sneakers into a revamped, metallic future.

Dropping in Spring 2026, the new Air Jordan 6 PSG arrives in a dressier, metallic colorway as expected. Shiny silver leather makes up the entire upper with tonal overlays, while white and pure platinum accents and details appear throughout the midsole and heel. Finished with a sleek heel tab and clean toebox, the combination of high-end materials and classic design cues exude luxury and performance, a nod to both Parisian style and Jordan Brand’s DNA.

Though we don’t know for sure, the shoe will likely come with Paris Saint-Germain branding and custom insoles, though we’ll have to wait to see the full packaging and insole art to be sure. The PSG-specific Eiffel Tower crest replaces the Jumpman heel branding on this sneaker to symbolize the storied connection between the Jumpman and PSG brands around the world.

The Paris Saint-Germain x Air Jordan 6 is the third edition of the Air Jordan 6 for Paris Saint-Germain, following the 2019 fan-favorite Infrared colorway and a low-top release in 2023. In each drop, the PSG have leaned into their tailored, fashion-forward approach while Jordan’s have been able to combine sport and style seamlessly.

Air Jordan 6 PSG Release Date

The PSG x Air Jordan 6 “Metallic Silver” releases February 24, 2026 at Jordan Brand retail stores and Nike.com for $215 USD.

Nike SB P-Rod 1 “All-Star” (Habanero Red) Releases February 17th

By
Mario Briguglio
-

UPDATE 2/11/26: Following its initial rollout at select skate shops, the Nike SB P-Rod “All-Star” (Habanero Red) — a colorway that nods to Paul Rodriguez’s West Coast roots — is scheduled to release February 17th via SNKRS for $135 USD. Official photos are available below.

UPDATE 1/31/26: Paul Rodriguez’s debut Nike SB signature shoe, the P-Rod 1, is continuing its retro run with an All-Star–inspired colorway that draws from Kobe Bryant’s 2011 All-Star Game jersey—worn in Los Angeles when he took home MVP. The pair is expected to release on February 10, 2026, starting at select skate shops ahead of a wider SNKRS launch closer to NBA All-Star Weekend. Enjoy the latest photos below via @sbalusek.

Original Story 12/21/25:
The Nike SB P-Rod 1 “Habanero Red” perfectly coincides with the start of NBA All-Star Weekend 2026, as the crossover skater and basketball hype culture continue to converge. The frequent team-ups between the two worlds are more timely than ever, with Paul Rodriguez’s signature sneaker making a return.

This P-Rod 1 is soaked in red suede, from bright red to wine. Dark midsole details anchor the upper, as gold accents on the Swoosh and branding bring a point of focus. But it is the subtle “WEST” lace dubrae that might offer the strongest hint of a Western Conference All-Star connection.

Nike has historically relied on subtle cues over bold graphics for its event-driven releases. The right move here, as it lets the silhouette’s legacy speak for itself. The P-Rod 1 remains one of Nike SB’s most impactful shoes, merging early-2000s skate performance and lifestyle cool.

Nike SB P-Rod All-Star Release Date

The Nike SB P-Rod 1 “All-Star” will first release February 10, 2026 at select skate shops followed by a wider release on February 17th through Nike.com, priced at $135 USD.

JJJJound x New Balance 475 “Black” Arrives For Spring 2026

By
Mario Briguglio
-

JJJJound is continuing its low-key run with New Balance by turning its attention to the rarely spotlighted 475 for Spring 2026. Instead of chasing trends, the Montreal label sticks to its signature minimalist approach, dressing the retro runner in a simple black-and-white palette that feels understated by design.

Originally built in the 1980s as a serious mileage shoe, the New Balance 475 has only recently returned to the rotation. After reappearing through an Aimé Leon Dore project in 2024, the model has popped up with a few other collaborators, but it still sits well outside New Balance’s main wave of 2000s-era lifestyle runners.

This JJJJound edition arrives as part of New Balance’s Black Core Uniform lineup for Spring 2026, featuring a black suede and mesh upper paired with white detailing on the tongue, laces, lining, and midsole. Subtle co-branding lands at the heel, keeping things deliberately restrained.

The JJJJound x New Balance 475 “Black” is expected soon via JJJJound’s site, with wider details to follow.

Hellstar x adidas Superstar “Warm Sandstone” Releasing During NBA All-Star Weekend 2026

By
Mario Briguglio
-

Hellstar’s relationship with adidas is shaping up to be one of the more interesting creative threads of 2026, and NBA All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles is serving as its latest proving ground. After debuting its first adidas collaboration late last year, the LA-based brand is doubling down with another statement piece timed around the league’s biggest weekend.

Alongside the previously seen Hellstar x adidas AE 2, the brand is rolling out a matching take on the adidas Superstar that leans heavily into its dark, rebellious visual language. The shoe pairs a Warm Sandstone camouflage base with black graffiti-style detailing, echoing the aesthetic found across Hellstar’s apparel.

Beyond the loud print, the collaboration’s defining elements come through in the details. Distressed black Three Stripes sit on a custom panel, while flame-inspired accents nod to Hellstar’s logo. Exposed foam on the tongue and eyelets adds a raw, unfinished feel, and layered white stitching appears on the heel tab. Co-branded hits land on the tongue and back tabs, with green Trefoil tags peeking out from the spine. Even the insoles carry Hellstar’s signature screaming face graphic.

The Hellstar x adidas Superstar “Warm Sandstone” is expected to be available through adidas’ on-the-ground activations in Los Angeles during All-Star Weekend, February 13–15, with a retail price of $180 USD.

Fragment x Union x Air Jordan 1 High OG “White/Black” SNKRS Pass

By
Mario Briguglio
-

UPDATE 2/11/26: An Inglewood SNKRS Pass for the Union Fragment Air Jordan 1 “Black/White” is expected to open at 1 PM. When it goes live, access will be available through HERE.

UPDATE 2/5/26: UNDEFEATED opened its EQL raffle on February 5th, with winning entries limited to in-store pickup at the brand’s New York City flagship location. Entries are now live through the official raffle link.

UPDATE 2/4/26: Momentum is building toward February 7th as South Korea’s TUNE prepares to host the Fragment/Union launch of the Air Jordan 1 “White/Black,” bringing together Hiroshi Fujiwara’s Fragment Design, Union LA, and Jordan Brand for a landmark three-way collaboration. On Saturday in Seoul, TUNE will stage an in-store release tied to an on-site scratch-off lottery, but only customers wearing or carrying a Fragment Design product will receive a ticket, along with a special 1985-minted 1-won coin. Winners from the scratch raffle will earn the chance to purchase the Fragment Design–exclusive Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG SP (₩249,000), following a mandatory online pre-check-in that runs from February 4th at 3:00 PM through February 6th at 1:59 PM.

Original Story 2/2/26:
After months of quiet teasers and blurred on-foot shots, the next chapter of Fragment and Union’s partnership is finally becoming tangible. The February calendar has been circled for weeks, but confirmed retailer placements now give the timeline real weight. In that sense, the Fragment x Union Air Jordan 1 “White/Black” arrives less as a surprise and more as a carefully paced reveal.

Clean white leather forms the base, while matte black overlays frame the toe, eyestays, and collar in a way that echoes classic 1985 blocking without mimicking it. Exposed zigzag stitching along the collar and heel introduces Union’s signature hand-touched aesthetic, adding texture without disrupting the silhouette’s balance. A small Fragment lightning bolt on the heel quietly anchors the collaboration rather than shouting it.

Compared to the other two pairs in this three-shoe project, this release leans closest to tradition, suggesting a more measured approach to co-branded storytelling. The build keeps the familiar high-cut shape and sturdy leather feel that define the Air Jordan 1, but the subtle construction details signal how both partners continue to refine their language with Jordan Brand.

Retail confirmations now span five cities, underscoring how this drop is being positioned as a global moment rather than a regional stunt.

Fragment Union Air Jordan 1 White Black Release Date

The Fragment x Union Air Jordan 1 “White/Black” releases February 7, 2026 through Undefeated (New York), Headquarter (Mexico City), Fragment (Tokyo), Starcow (Paris), and Kasina (Seoul), priced at $205 USD.

Nike Unveils The LeBron NXXT Gen by Juju Watkins “Silver Lining”

By
Mario Briguglio
-

Nike is formally bringing JuJu Watkins deeper into its basketball ecosystem with the unveiling of the LeBron NXXT Gen by JuJu “Silver Lining” colorway. The release signals how drastically NIL has reshaped Nike’s approach to young talent, allowing the brand to invest in elite players well before they reach the pros. Watkins, already one of the most hyped prospects in women’s basketball, continues to fast-track her relationship with Nike after debuting a USC-themed GT Cut 3 Turbo PE last year.

This latest project is more significant, as Watkins becomes the first athlete to design within the LeBron NXXT Gen platform. The updated model blends flexible leather and TPU on the upper with a React midsole and forefoot Zoom Air unit, while personal details — including a jewel Swoosh, quilted floral accents, and a “By JuJu” tongue graphic — give the shoe a distinct signature feel. The “Silver Lining” colorway nods to her Watts roots, subtly referencing the neighborhood’s iconic Watts Towers.

Beyond a single sneaker, Nike appears to be positioning the LeBron NXXT Gen line as a gateway for the next generation of stars. Watkins is the first to step into that role, but likely not the last, suggesting a thoughtful transition plan as LeBron James eventually phases out of the spotlight.

JuJu Watkins Nike LeBron NXXT Gen Release Date

The Nike LeBron NXXT Gen by Juju Watkins “Silver Lining” is expected to release in Summer 2026 at select retailers and Nike.com. The retail price tag is set at $170 USD.
