Nike Air Bakin “Multi-Color” Releases Spring 2027

The Nike Air Bakin “Multi-Color” is joining the model’s next retro run, giving the late-’90s basketball shoe a much louder look for Spring 2027.

Originally released in 1997, the Air Bakin became closely tied to Tim Hardaway during his Miami Heat days, while Kevin Garnett also helped give the shoe court presence with Minnesota. Nike is now bringing the model back around its 30th anniversary, with both original colorways and fresh styles expected to return.

This new “Black/Chlorophyll/Multi-Color” pair takes the Air Bakin in a more experimental direction. The early photos shows a dark base with a wild gradient-style upper panel, giving it a similar feel to Supreme’s 2023 Air Bakin collaboration. However, this version appears to have its own finish, possibly with a glossy, glitter-like, or lenticular effect based on the first look.

The colorway was revealed by NYC boutique two:minds alongside other upcoming pairs. It will join the OG “Varsity Red” and “Varsity Royal” releases, which are currently expected to launch during Holiday 2026.

The Nike Air Bakin SP “Multi-Color” is expected to release in Spring 2027 in men’s sizing. The retail price is currently set at $170 USD. Grab a look at some in-hand photos below.

Air Jordan 4 “Birds of Paradise” Releases July 2026

UPDATE 6/27/26: Official photos of the Air Jordan 4 “Birds of Paradise” have surfaced. The women’s exclusive releases is set to launch July 23rd for $220 USD.

Original Story 5/18/26:
The Air Jordan 4 “Birds of Paradise” has just surfaced online giving us first look photos of the women’s exclusive release, and the real pair looks noticeably different from the beige-heavy mockups that have been floating around online.

Jordan Brand’s upcoming women’s Air Jordan 4 is currently expected to release July 23rd for $220 USD. The color palette still lines up with the early info — Coconut Milk, Metallic Gold, Muslin, Bright Mango, Sundial, and Black — but the actual execution brings more life to the shoe than those early mockups suggested.

Most of the upper keeps things calm with soft neutral shades across the pebbled leather base. Suede lands on the toe, tongue label, and backtab, giving the pair a little more texture instead of making the whole shoe feel flat. The semi-translucent TPU wings and eyestays also help separate the real version from the leather-heavy mockups people were judging a little too confidently.

The brightest part of the Air Jordan 4 “Birds of Paradise” shows up underfoot. A tropical outsole mixes semi-translucent Bright Mango and Sundial hits, adding the kind of color pop most people probably expected to see more of on the upper. So yes, the party is mostly happening on the bottom of the shoe.

Metallic Gold appears on the heel Jumpman logo, giving the design a small premium hit without turning the shoe into a full gold-accented release. The pair also comes with special packaging covered in tropical plant artwork, which ties the theme together better than the shoe alone might suggest.

Travis Scott x Nike Phantom 6 Low “Cactus Jack” Pack Releases June 2026

UPDATE 6/27/26: The Travis Scott x Nike Phantom 6 Low releases June 28th through TravisScott.com. The Elite cleat is priced at $320, while the Indoor version will retail for $200.

Original Story:
Nike’s World Cup push has brought out nearly every major name and collaborator in its orbit. After the packed “Rip the Script” campaign and a growing Nike Cryoshot lineup featuring Patta, Jacquemus, Jordan Brand, and Virgil Abloh Archives, Travis Scott is now adding his own project to the mix.

The Travis Scott x Nike Phantom 6 “Cactus Jack” has surfaced in official images after several early previews and on-field appearances. The collaboration includes a traditional performance cleat and a reworked indoor version with a low-profile shape that feels inspired by Nike’s classic Total 90 era.

Both pairs feature bright neon green uppers paired with glossy Reverse Swooshes and yellow laces. Brown covers the collars and sole units, bringing in the earthy color palette commonly used across Travis Scott’s Nike collaborations.

Cactus Jack insoles, crooked smiley graphics on the heels, and special drawstring bags complete the release. Each version also carries nearly identical color blocking despite being built for different playing surfaces.

The Travis Scott x Nike Phantom 6 Low “Cactus Jack” Pack is expected to release in June 2026 through TravisScott.com, SNKRS and other retailers. The indoor model is expected to retail for $200, while the performance cleat will be priced at $320.

Nike Air Liquid Max Appears in “Triple Black”

Nike has another all-black Air Liquid Max on the way for Summer 2026, but this one takes a slightly different route from the pairs we have already seen.

The upper sticks to black throughout, mixing mesh with smooth overlays and a series of thin TPU lines around the lower half. Nike dropped the nanoprint pattern used on earlier versions, which gives this pair a more straightforward look.

That simpler upper puts more attention on the sole. The rounded Air units sit across the bottom in a long, segmented setup, giving the shoe its most recognizable feature and a much more aggressive profile from the side.

This is not the first dark Air Liquid Max, following the Fragment collaboration and another black general release. Still, the stripped-back upper helps separate it from those earlier pairs. No contrast colors, no oversized graphics, just a full black finish built around the model’s unusual cushioning.

The Nike Air Liquid Max “Triple Black” is expected to release during Summer 2026 in men’s sizing for $220. Look for it at select Nike Sportswear retailers and Nike.com.

This Air Jordan 1 Mid Comes With Black Elephant Print Overlays

Elephant print may be tied most closely to the Air Jordan 3, but Jordan Brand has used the pattern across nearly every corner of its footwear lineup. The latest example comes on a new Air Jordan 1 Mid expected in 2026.

This pair keeps things mostly black, using different materials to create its contrast instead of relying on several colors. Smooth leather covers the toe box and side panels, while elephant print appears across the overlays, heels, and Swooshes. Tough Red adds a sharper break through the laces, lining, and Wings branding.

The Air Jordan 1 Mid “Elephant Print” is expected to release during Summer 2026 through Nike.com and select Jordan Brand retailers.

Nike Air Force 1 Low ’07 “Hellfire” Features Lenticular Heel Eyes

Nike is taking the Air Force 1 Low ’07 in a darker direction with the upcoming “Hellfire” colorway. Cracked black leather, reptile-like overlays, and red accents give the familiar all-black setup a more aggressive finish, while a pair of lenticular eyes on the heels carries most of the theme.

The upper begins with distressed black leather at the forefoot. Overlaying scales adorn the toe, Swooshes and heal zones. This gives the shoe a dramatic shift in texture while keeping the classic silhouette of the Air Force 1 intact.

Red appears in smaller doses along the tongue label, underside of the tongue, midsole stripe, and AIR branding. Instead of dominating the shoe, the color works its way through the black construction as a sharp contrast.

Orange eyeball graphics replace the usual heel branding. Each lenticular image changes as the shoe moves, with Nike Swooshes used as the pupils. It is the most unusual part of the design and gives the “Hellfire” name something more distinctive than another black-and-red color scheme.

A solid black outsole completes the bottom, while the included spare laces feature a scaled pattern that matches the leather overlays.

The Nike Air Force 1 Low ’07 “Hellfire” is expected to release in Fall 2026 through Nike and select retailers, both online and in stores. The retail price is set at $125.

Nike Dunk Low PRM “Sesame” Gets The Gum Sole Treatment

Nike is adding some extra weight to the Dunk Low with the upcoming “Sesame” edition. The usual Peter Moore shape is still there, but the padded Swoosh sits higher off the side panels and gives the shoe a noticeably fuller look.

The upper remains straightforward. Sesame leather is featured on the footbed and overlays, supported by tone stitching and branding. Cream tone tongue and white laces provide subtle contrast, but it’s the exaggerated Swoosh that transforms the shoe the most.

That inflated logo has already shown up on several recent Air Force 1 releases. Moving it over to the Dunk gives Nike another way to update the model without leaning on louder color blocking or changing its familiar construction.

A matching midsole carries the tan finish below, while the gum rubber outsole adds a darker edge. It also gives the pair a slight skate feel, which fits a Dunk that has spent decades moving well beyond its basketball origins.

The Nike Dunk Low PRM “Sesame” will release during Summer 2026 through Nike.com and select Nike Sportswear retailers.

Story mfg. x ASICS Unveils Two Plaid Sneakers

Story mfg. is bringing its offbeat, craft-heavy style to ASICS through two footwear designs from the brand’s “Trees Are Poems” collection. Both were previewed at Paris Fashion Week, where black and brown plaid versions appeared in early overhead images.

The limited photos leave plenty unanswered. ASICS has not revealed the model names, materials, or full shape of either shoe, but a few details are already visible. Branding is etched into the toe boxes, while bead sets are included for customizing the laces.

Plaid does most of the work across both uppers, giving the shoes a softer, handmade character than the technical look usually tied to ASICS. The beads push that idea further without feeling disconnected from the rest of the design.

Founded by Saeed and Katy Al-Rubeyi in 2013, Story mfg. has built its name around slow fashion, vegan production, and a design language shaped by nature and traditional craft. The ASICS project follows that same direction instead of simply placing the brand’s colors on an existing runner.

The Story mfg. x ASICS “Trees Are Poems” footwear is expected to release in November 2026.

Nike Air Force 1 Low “Phantom/Light Khaki” Goes Floral For Summer 2026

Nike is bringing woven fabric and floral embroidery to the Air Force 1 Low for a “Phantom/Light Khaki” release made with summer in mind. The leather framework remains familiar, though the fabric underlays and soft, sandy colors give the shoe a noticeably different feel.

Open-knit material runs through the toe box and side panels. Muted tan flowers are stitched across it, with parts of the pattern passing beneath the leather rather than stopping at each panel. The embroidery looks a little irregular by design, closer to one continuous arrangement than a graphic repeated around the shoe.

Phantom leather is used on the mudguard, eyestays and rear quarter. Light Khaki suede overlays the Swooshes and heel tabs providing texture to the smooth silhouette without introducing a new color. Nike takes this neutral theme throughout the striped rope laces, collar trim, tongue labels, insole and heel branding.

The sole comes entirely in Light Khaki, including the midsole and rubber outsole. Keeping that section plain puts more attention on the material changes above it, especially where the woven fabric meets the suede and leather.

The Nike Air Force 1 Low “Phantom/Light Khaki” will release during Summer 2026 through Nike.com and select Nike Sportswear retailers.

Willy Chavarria x adidas Stan Smith Previewed At Paris Fashion Week

Willy Chavarria ended his Spring/Summer 2027 runway show in Paris with a first look at what appears to be his next adidas project. Two unreleased Stan Smiths showed up during the finale, with Chavarria wearing one pair and Stan Smith himself appearing in the other.

The white version stays close to the shoe’s traditional look, but the details give it a different feel. Chavarria added a shaggy green heel tab, “W” branding at the back, and a small rose embroidered along the side. It still reads like a Stan Smith, just with his fingerprints all over it.

The second pair goes much further. Worn by Stan Smith, the entire upper is covered in thick green suede that looks almost like grass. It is a simple idea, but it connects back to the model’s tennis roots in a way that feels direct without turning the shoe into a costume.

This would be the latest step in Chavarria’s expanding adidas partnership. His recent work with the brand has included Mexico-inspired clothing, goalkeeper jerseys, and reworked Copa footwear, so the move into one of adidas’ most recognizable lifestyle models feels like a natural next step.

adidas has not shared a release date or pricing for the Willy Chavarria x adidas Stan Smith. The two pairs could arrive later in 2026 or alongside the Spring/Summer 2027 collection, though neither timeframe has been confirmed.

A-COLD-WALL* x Salomon ACS Pro Releases July 1st

The A-COLD-WALL* x Salomon ACS Pro is bringing fresh attention back to the early-2000s trail runner. Originally introduced in 2005, the ACS Pro has recently started gaining momentum again following projects with L’Art de l’Automobile and now Samuel Ross’ A-COLD-WALL* label.

First shown during Paris Fashion Week, the collaboration includes two colorways with the same updated construction. A thinner mesh replaces the model’s usual leather and mesh underlays, while rubber reinforcement wraps around the toe for added protection.

One pair keeps things muted with olive green and beige tones over a grey midsole. The second takes a louder approach, pairing royal blue with yellow accents. Both versions also feature woodgrain-like detailing on the lace eyelets connected to the shoe’s signature cage.

The A-COLD-WALL* x Salomon ACS Pro will release July 1, 2026, in men’s sizing. Check out the official photos below.

adidas Anthony Edwards Believe That 1 “Philippines” Nods To Gilas Pilipinas

The adidas Anthony Edwards Believe That 1 “Philippines” gives Ant’s first takedown model a colorway made specifically for one of basketball’s loudest and most loyal fan bases.

Red, orange, and yellow run across the shoe in a warm gradient, with the brighter shades taking over the tongue and collar before fading into deeper tones near the toe. Dark burgundy pieces frame the sides, while the translucent outsole keeps the same fiery look going underneath.

The local references are worked into the smaller details. A Philippines basketball crest sits on the tongue, “Pilipinas Basketball” appears on the lace tips, and “Lahi” is printed on the heel pull tab. Patterned insoles add one more layer to the theme without making the shoe feel overloaded.

This pair arrives alongside the Anthony Edwards 2 “Magpakitang Gilas”, giving Filipino fans another special release from Edwards’ growing adidas lineup. It also comes as adidas builds a stronger connection with Gilas Pilipinas after becoming the national team’s official outfitter.

The adidas Anthony Edwards Believe That 1 “Philippines” is expected to release soon as a Philippines exclusive. The retail price should come in at roughly $100.

Jae Tips x Nike Air Bakin Low Releases Spring 2027

Jae Tips and Savior Worldwide are preparing their first official Nike collaboration, with the partnership expected to begin on the newly introduced Nike Air Bakin Low.

The Bronx designer is reportedly putting his stamp on two colorways of the low-top basketball model for Spring 2027. The project follows Nike’s announcement earlier this year that Jae Tips had joined the brand after a successful stretch with Saucony.

His Saucony releases became known for loud color combinations, personal storytelling, and packaging that felt connected to each project. That same approach appears to be carrying over to Nike, at least based on the first color details tied to the Air Bakin Low collection.

One pair comes dressed in Cobalt Bliss, Chile Red, Varsity Maize, Atlantic Blue, and Pine Green. The second combines Black, Blue Beyond, Purple Stardust, Arctic Pink, and Pine Green. Both palettes line up with the bright, layered look Jae Tips has used throughout his recent sneaker work.

Nike introduced the Air Bakin Low during Paris Fashion Week, showing the reworked basketball shoe in its first general-release colorways. The model keeps the bold personality of the original Air Bakin while reshaping it into a lower-cut design. Its rugged look has already drawn comparisons to Nike ACG footwear from the 1990s.

Rather than beginning with one of Nike’s current flagship runners, his first project appears connected to an older period of Nike Basketball that still holds weight in New York sneaker culture. It could offer an early clue about the archival models Nike plans to place in his hands going forward.

Jae Tips Nike Air Bakin Low Release Date

Both Jae Tips x Nike Air Bakin Low colorways are expected to release during Spring 2027 through Nike.com and select Nike Sportswear retailers. The shoes will be available in men’s sizing with a retail price of $160 each. Nike has not yet announced an exact release date.

Reebok LTD Previews Spring/Summer 2027 Lineup

Reebok LTD gave an early look at its Spring/Summer 2027 lineup during Paris Fashion Week, bringing back several archival models while continuing to push its more experimental designs.

The biggest reveal was the return of the Reebok DMX Daytona. Designed by Christian Tresser in the mid-1990s, the cross-trainer is often linked to his later work on the Nike Air Max 97. Reebok previewed the model in several directions, including metallic bronze and cobalt finishes, understated blue and beige suede options, and a light blue, brown, and yellow colorway.

The DMX Daytona also appears beyond its original sneaker form. Its sole unit has been paired with boat shoe and moccasin-style uppers, giving the retro performance design a more fashion-driven look.

Reebok applied a similar approach to the Premier LTD. Slip-on moc versions were shown in pink and grey, teal and burgundy, and a loud mix of purple, yellow, and green. Another variation keeps part of the traditional lacing system while adding circular brushed-metal cages along the sides.

More familiar versions of the Premier LTD were also included in the presentation, along with the Reebok Mostro in a steel, red, and gum color scheme. The Hammer and Club C LTD rounded out the preview with cleaner palettes and upgraded materials.

The Reebok LTD Spring/Summer 2027 Collection is expected to release during the first half of 2027. Exact launch dates, pricing, and availability have not yet been announced.

Nike Air Max 95 “Black Tongue Pack” Releases Spring 2027

The Nike Air Max 95 “Black Tongue Pack” brings a small but noticeable change to the model’s familiar gradient setup. Blue, red, pink, and yellow colorways were previewed during Paris Fashion Week, all built around the layered upper and visible Air cushioning that have defined the shoe since 1995.

Rather than having a lighter tongue and lining like what you’ll find on duos such as the “Neon” these colorways keep black running through the center of the shoe. The darker base allows the bolder accents to pop without straying too far from the OG Air Max 95 formula.

The idea goes back further than most recent gradient releases. An early Air Max 95 prototype photographed with designer Sergio Lozano in the 1990s featured a similar look. That sample later became the reference point for the mita sneakers x Nike Air Max 95 “Ueno Prototype,” a highly limited release from 2013.

Nike has not tied the new pack directly to the mita collaboration, but the connection is there. For longtime collectors, especially those familiar with the Air Max 95’s prototype history, the black tongue is more than a simple color swap.

Four colorways have surfaced so far, with more possibly planned. The Nike Air Max 95 “Black Tongue Pack” is expected to release during Spring/Summer 2027 through Nike.com and select Nike Sportswear retailers. Exact release dates and pricing have not been announced.

adidas Anthony Edwards 2 “Magpakitang Gilas” Celebrates Filipino Basketball Pride

Anthony Edwards’ second signature shoe is heading into summer with a colorway tied to the Philippines. The adidas Anthony Edwards 2 “Magpakitang Gilas”, which translates to “show your best”, works the country’s red, blue, and white flag colors into the AE 2, though the upper leans much heavier on blue than anything else.

Royal blue mesh covers most of the base. Purple molded sections frame the shoe, dark navy breaks up the side panels, and red mesh peeks through the vents. Around the collar, sky blue fades into white near the heel. It is one of the quieter details on the pair, but it helps pull the flag-inspired palette together.

The Philippines reference is more direct on the tongue, where a red sun-and-stars emblem appears near the top. Bright green stitching runs underneath it. Green falls outside the main theme, but the contrast keeps the tongue from disappearing into the rest of the upper.

Much of the AE 2’s build remains exposed here. Breathable mesh sits behind the sculpted support pieces, while a carbon-fiber-patterned panel is tucked into the heel area. With several shades of blue used across the shoe, those separate layers are easier to pick out.

Underfoot, adidas uses an icy blue translucent outsole with herringbone traction through the forefoot and heel. Red and blue components remain visible beneath the rubber rather than being covered by additional graphics.

The adidas Anthony Edwards 2 “Magpakitang Gilas” releases June 26, 2026 via adidas Philippines. Retail is set at $130. No word yet on stateside availability.
