Sneaker Talk: Air Jordan 15 “Columbia”

By
Mario Briguglio
-

The Air Jordan 15 “Columbia” was released in 2000, alongside two other original colorways, boldly kicking off a new chapter of Tinker Hatfield’s experimental era.

Jumping into the history books, the “Columbia” colorway was first immortalized on the Air Jordan 11, most notably worn by Michael Jordan in the 1996 NBA All-Star Game. By the time AJ15 rolled around, White and Columbia Blue had become virtually inseparable from Jordan’s days at the University of North Carolina and the university colors became a perfect palette for this hyper-futuristic silhouette.

Inspired by the X-15 fighter jet, the Air Jordan 15 featured a woven Kevlar mesh upper with aggressive angles and an extended tongue (supposedly a nod to MJ’s often-cited tongue-poking playstyle). Hidden beneath the tongue was Zoom Air cushioning while a herringbone outsole brought it all together for the court.

While many models have seen retro releases, the Air Jordan 15 “Columbia” has yet to see a return as of August 2025. This absence has only increased the allure of the shoe, as OG box fresh pairs are hard to come by.

Collectors may have to rely on vintage marketplaces, but if Jordan Brand ever brings this one back, it’ll quickly remind fans why the Columbia name remains timeless.

Awake NY has announced a brand new Air Jordan 5 collaboration with Jordan Brand.

Awake combines their signature streetwear style with the classic 1990 Tinker Hatfield model for this project.

The “Bubblegum” version of the Air Jordan 5 is built on a bright pink leather upper with grey tongues and red accents as a callback to the OG “Fire Red” Air Jordan 5. The “Racer Blue” colorway will also feature black leather uppers but will incorporate Awake’s iconic blue accents as a nod to New York City’s affinity for darker color schemes. Both colorways of the Air Jordan 5 feature an embroidered Awake “A” logo within the side netting. This will be one of the more unique customizations seen on a Jordan Brand project to date.

Additional details include embroidered “23” on the lateral heel, and an “NY” logo at the back. Supply is limited: the “Bubblegum” version will only see a 7,000 pair release with each shoe individually numbered, while the “Racer Blue” model will be limited to 13,000 pairs.

By
Mason Tiniuc

In the BAPE x adidas Samba Collection, the classic kicks for the terrace and streetwear’s biggest icons team up in two uncluttered iterations that showcase the personalities of each brand.

The first model uses a black leather upper with a white BAPE STA logo on the lateral, while the medial respects the original adidas’ Three Stripes. Gold “A Bathing Ape” lettering, co-branded tongue labels and gum soles complete the design.

The second model is a color-blocked version, which uses smooth white leather and a black star on the lateral, while it reprises the heritage details.

Release Date & Where To Buy

Nike Zoom Vomero 5 Resurfaces in “College Grey”

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Nike Sportswear is bringing back the Zoom Vomero 5 in a new “College Grey” colorway this Fall 2025.

Black and grey mesh make up the base of the shoe, layered with leather and synthetic overlays to add technical flair. Dull tan gives the side cage a low-key contrast, while the rest of the silhouette is finished with a bold black Swoosh, laces, and outsole to help the visual keep its balance.

Reflective pieces on the upper make the silhouette more visible, and molded side sections along with the graphic heel clip keep the model’s signature structural elements intact.

Textural and tonal mixing helps the new colorway pack some punch, creating a versatile silhouette for both streetwear or workout settings.

The Nike Zoom Vomero 5 “College Grey” will be available in Fall 2025 at a price of $170 through Nike.com and select retailers.

Michael Jordan Shattered Backboard T-Shirts Now Available (August 2025)

By
Mario Briguglio
-

UPDATE 8/16/25: The Jordan Shattered Backboard t-shirts are now available on Nike.com.

Original Story 5/6/25:
Once upon a backboard-smashing time—August 26, 1985 to be exact—Michael Jordan dunked so hard in Italy, the glass quit its job. The moment faded like your old gym socks until 2015, when Jordan Brand brought it roaring back with the “Shattered Backboard” Air Jordan 1.

Now in 2025, it’s the dunk’s 40th anniversary, Jordan Brand’s 40th birthday, and the AJ1’s 10th “Shatterversary”—a perfect storm of greatness. Naturally, Nike had to mark the occasion by giving us not one but two oversized Jordan Shattered Backboard T-Shirts. Choose between rebellious faded black or fresh-off-the-press off-white, depending on your mood (or laundry situation).

Each tee features MJ mid-air, mid-dunk, mid-glass explosion—complete with that number 23 jersey and chaotic shards flying like confetti at a GOAT parade. The back reads “1985 AIR JORDAN” in bold letters, just in case anyone forgot what year greatness began.

These tees drop in July 2025 on Nike.com, conveniently aligned with the rerelease of the beloved “Shattered Backboard” Air Jordan 1s. So yes, you can match your shirt to your shoes and your entire ego.

In closing: if you’ve ever wanted to wear a moment of basketball history on your chest—and look good doing it—this is it. The Jordan Shattered Backboard T-Shirt is coming for your closet. Don’t miss the drop, unless you enjoy regret.

Nike Astrograbber “Soft Yellow” Releases August 26th

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

UPDATE 8/16/25: The Nike Astrograbber “Soft Yellow” releases August 26th via SNKRS for $135 USD.

Original Story 8/1/25:
The Nike Astrograbber “Soft Yellow” arrives in Fall 2025 to help celebrate one of Nike’s most significant silhouettes. The football-specific shoe was the first to feature Bill Bowerman’s legendary waffle outsole.

The upper is finished in a muted colorway of Soft Yellow with a solid black Swoosh on both the lateral and medial sides of the shoe. Orange tongue tag provides a vintage-inspired touch and reminds the wearer of the Astrograbber’s 1970s heritage. The NIKE logo adorns the heel of the shoe. For a little variety, Nike throws in a second set of laces.

However, the real star of the show is the outsole. The iconic Bowerman waffle traction pattern is still going strong and is true to its roots in this updated silhouette. The outsole has the look and feel that was around during its original release while fitting right in with the modern sneaker culture.

Retailing at $135 USD, the Nike Astrograbber “Soft Yellow” will be available August 26, 2025 at Nike.com and through select retail partners.

Nike Astrograbber “Aluminum/Soft Yellow” Releases August 26th

By
Mario Briguglio
-

UPDATE 8/16/25: The Nike Astrograbber “Aluminum/Soft Yellow” releases August 26th via SNKRS for $135 USD. Check out the official photos below.

Original Story 7/15/25:
Nike is bringing back a lesser-known piece of its archive. The Astrograbber, first released in 1974, wasn’t made for the streets—it was built for AstroTurf. Now, it’s returning in a clean “Aluminum/Soft Yellow” colorway with a more modern focus.

The upper is wrapped in muted aluminum suede. A pale yellow Swoosh sits along the side, pairing nicely with the yellow-and-white laces. Branding on the tongue and heel sticks to the original layout.

You’ll still spot that cleat-inspired sole underfoot. Once a functional feature, it’s now more about design than performance.

Timing here feels intentional. As interest in soccer-styled sneakers rises, and with the 2026 World Cup approaching, Nike is giving field-ready styles another shot. The Astrograbber fits right into that moment.

Earlier this year, the shoe made a limited return through a Bode collaboration. That drop sparked curiosity. This time, it’s available to a wider crowd.

The design keeps things understated. No loud graphics or trendy tweaks—just an honest revival of a silhouette most haven’t seen in years.

The Nike Astrograbber “Aluminum/Soft Yellow” lands on August 26, 2025, in men’s sizing for $135 USD. You’ll be able to grab a pair through Nike.com and select retailers.

Nike Air Max Sunder Joins The “Realtree” Wave

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Nike is reinventing the Air Max Sunder for Fall 2025 in a tough “Realtree Camo” edition.

The shoe has a shell constructed of synthetic material in lifelike camo patterns of branches and leaves with the Nike Swoosh subtly detailed. Brown leather mudguards add an element of structure, and the high-visibility orange pull-tabs and branding add a punchy pop of contrast. Visible Air units underfoot ensure comfort remains rooted in Nike’s performance-driven heritage.

The Air Max Sunder first launched in the late ’90s as a trail-inspired trainer, and the aesthetic of this release leans heavily into the model’s outdoor DNA. The camo design feels purpose built for hunting-season aesthetics while still working well in casual streetwear rotations.

The Nike Air Max Sunder “Realtree” will launch Fall 2025 at Nike.com and select retailers for $180 USD.

Balancing performance tech with lifestyle appeal, this pair is part of the “Realtree” movement.

Nike Air Max Sunder “Persian Violet” Brings Back ’90s Energy

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Make a strong showing with the Nike Air Max Sunder “Persian Violet” this Fall 2025.

Pink Foam starting at the zipper and flowing to a deep Persian Violet at the mudguard creates a striking gradient effect reminiscent of watercolor paint on the silhouette’s upper.

Made its original debut in the late ‘90s, the Air Max Sunder blended a technical edge with zip-up construction for its time. The return keeps true to the DNA, adding on a modernized take on color blocking. Shades from Off Noir add definition across the mudguard, midsole and plush inner lining.

Arriving this Fall 2025, the Nike Air Max Sunder “Persian Violet” will be $190 through Nike.com and select retailers.

This pair offers a blend of archival elements and modern design.

By

Raw energy meets untamed power in the Air Jordan 1 Low GS “Inner Beast”. Dropping alongside the Air Jordan 11 GS “Sneaker School” (Inner Beast), both pairs channel a matching sense of fierce style.

Laced with scratch-like details, its black suede and leather upper capture the feeling of a caged animal clawing its way out.

On a design note, this Air Jordan 1 Low has an in-house “Inner Beast” insole and a glossy “23” badge on the heel. Claw graphic accents are featured throughout the outsole. The box ties the wild-inspired theme all together with its black finish and single sticker of a claw mark.

Noticeable 3M Swooshes reflect light in the dark, while a glow in the dark Barely Volt outsole completes the menacing look.

Ice Studios Reimagines The Timberland 6-Inch Boot

By
Mason Tiniuc
-

Renell Medrano’s Ice Studios and Timberland have collaborated on a reboot of the classic 6-Inch Boot.

Slated to arrive in Fall 2025, the iteration forgoes the brand’s previous loud, multi-colored aesthetic for a muted monochromatic grey color scheme. Crafted in Timberland® leather uppers, the upper features a gray tone reminiscent of NYC streets.

The Timberland brand elements are debossed onto the side heel while the three-symbol logo of Ice Studios dangles from the tag. Silver-colored eyelets further sophisticate the rugged design and a semi-transparent milky white outsole keeps the build firmly within streetwear territory.

The Ice Studios x Timberland 6-Inch Boot “Grey” will drop in Fall 2025 through Timberland as well as selected retailers, online and in-store.

This collaboration will excite fans of both brands.

The Nike Kobe 5 Protro EYBL “The Academy” PE offers a new fresh colorway for the Kobe Bryant signature silhouette that was gifted to players of Nike Basketball’s Elite Youth Basketball League: The Academy.

This player edition features a vibrant mint green upper with black panels. It is accented by blue detailing around the Swoosh and along the heel. The color blocking is reminiscent of Jalen Brunson’s Kobe 6 Protro “Statue of Liberty” PE, set to receive a Holiday 2025 retail release.

The Kobe 5 Protro, originally launched as an updated take on the 2009 silhouette, offers the best of both worlds between a low top and lightweight performance. The Kobe 5 Protro EYBL “The Academy” PE follows in its performance DNA, bringing elevated basketball specific performance and nimble feel, and injects a daring color palette with a feeling of freshness and competitiveness. The mint tones and black accents are no doubt a show stopping combination that will pop under game lights.

Nike Basketball has a strong history of releasing athlete exclusive sneakers that are extremely desirable for sneakerheads at EYBL events. All previous Academy PEs have reached high resale prices for their scarcity and unique style, and this Kobe 5 EYBL PE is sure to join those ranks.

As of now, there are no reports of a retail release date, which is to be expected as these sneakers have been strictly exclusive to athletes at EYBL.

For fans of Kobe Bryant, this release is yet another release that keeps the Black Mamba’s influence alive both on and off the court.
