Saucony Originals teams up with multi-platform Trinidad-born Atlanta-based artist Trinidad Jame$ for a limited edition iteration of the iconic Jazz 81 and the launch of his brand Hommewrk.

Debuted during this weekend’s ComplexCon in limited quantities, this Saucony Jazz 81 celebrates Trinidad Jame$’ connection with the footwear brand and celebrates the musician’s vibrant Trinidadian heritage. An electric color palette and bright design elements transform the brand’s classic shoe. Continuing to channel his work on new and unexpected canvases, Trinidad drew inspiration from a sneaker he first owned as an immigrant moving to America—making this style a natural selection for the brand and artist’s inaugural collaboration.

Celebrating the rich diversity of Trinidad’s West Indian heritage, the Saucony x Hommewrk Jazz 81 “Sorrel Red” pays homage to his favorite drink, “Sorrel”, made of dried hibiscus flower petals. The classic Trinidadian recipe has deep Red hues that are recreated on the sneaker’s tumbled leather and premium suede upper. The Jazz 81 also showcases a semi-transparent pink TPU in the entire toe box of the shoe, as well as accents on the heel tab and Saucony’s “river” logos.

Following news that Kyrie Irving called his upcoming signature shoe, the Nike Kyrie 8, “trash” in the comment section of an Instagram leak. He has since backed off from his statement and claims he’s working with Nike to restructure the shoe, but it looks doubtful for any big changes to happen before the start of the 2021-2022 season.

Therefore, we’re left to accept this current version of the Kyrie 8 unless Nike Basketball plans to design an Elite-version of the shoe in-time for the playoff season.

The build itself resembles the Kyrie 6 along with other past Nike Kyrie designs. It comes constructed in a mix of mesh, leather, and suede materials along with iridescent details. Finishing off the design are Kyrie logos appearing on the tongue, heels, and rubber outsole, while the left tongue features a “Fire and Ice” motif possibly nodding to Kyrie’s game.

Check out the official photos below, and look for the Nike Kyrie 8 “Fire and Ice” to release on February 2nd at select retailers and Nike.com. The retail price tag is set at $130 USD.

Michael Jordan’s favorite Air Jordan silhouette, the Air Jordan 1, has seen several popular makeovers of the years, including both the “Black Toe” and “SBB” releases.

Overshadowed by other original colorways like “Bred”, “Chicago” and “Royal”, the Air Jordan 1 “Black Toe” is no less important when it comes to history of the legendary shoe. Michael Jordan wore the shoe during his rookie season that came dressed in a similar color blocking to the “Chicago” colorway, but takes away some of the Red from the upper in favor of Black on the eyestay and toe panels.

Originally debuted in 2015, the “SBB” aka “Shattered Backboard” Air Jordan 1 was inspired by an exhibition game Michael participated in back in 1985 in Trieste, Italy where he broke the glass backboard after a dunk.

Check out both Air Jordan 1s, and let us know which was the better release by casting your vote below.
