Fear Of God x Birkenstock Los Feliz
Last year Birkenstock showed its versatility in a collaboration with Dior and the German footwear brand is back at it again with Jerry Lorenzo’s Fear of God. The Fear Of God x Birkenstock Los Feliz introduces luxurious suede and felted wool to a relaxed silhouette, serving up a casual slide that looks great without compromising on the brand’s renowned comfort.
Tiffany & Co x Nike Air Force 1 Low
While we’ve only seen leaked images so far, the prospect of a Tiffany & Co x Nike Air Force 1 Low is sending sneakerheads into raptures. While we’ll need to wait till the northern hemisphere’s spring to see a complete unveiling, Tiffany executive Alexandre Arnault confirmed the long-rumoured collaboration this week with a tantalising post to Instagram.
Salomon ACS + OG
Salomon’s hot streak shows no signs of slowing down and its latest release in the new ACS + OG silhouette only adds more fuel to the fire. Blending the ACS Pro Advanced with an archival design from the 2000s, the ACS + OG is available in four colourways and is giving Y2K chic.
Dior 3D Printed Shoes
3D printing technology in the footwear game isn’t anything new, but it’s always been quite limited in its scope. For its recent Fall/Winter23 presentation, Dior has taken things a (literal) step further, creating a shoe that has been entirely 3D printed from a single piece complete with Dior branding on the heel and quick lace toggle fastening.
Converse x ADER Error Chuck 70
The gradual revival of Converse has been a fascinating thing to watch, with the iconic footwear giant offering various interpretations of its iconic Chuck Taylor from stacked midsoles to remixed collabs. This collaboration with ADER ERROR is a statement on the history of the classic Chuck 70 silhouette and how design isn’t ever truly original.
PUMA VELOPHASIS
Launched with a little help from the one and only Skepta, the new PUMA VELOPHASIS made its debut at the brand’s New York Fashion Week presentation at the end of last year. Finally, more details are emerging on the sneaker that features classic mesh uppers contested with leather overlays, which combine for a futuristic sneaker that takes cues from the 2000s.
Nike ACG Mountain Fly 2 Low “Laser Orange”
Made to look good no matter if you’re heading up a mountain or out to a gallery opening, Nike ACG Mountain Fly 2 Low fuses the function of a true trail running shoe with ample lashings of gorpcore. Soon to be available in vibrant orange, the all-terrain shoes boast a React foam cushioning midsole, gridded ripstop uppers and a quick lace closure.
adidas Orketro “Aluminum”
With inspiration that comes straight out of the 1990s, the adidas Orketro silhouette is back in a clean “Aluminium” colourway that does a lot to minimise the heft of the chunky Torsion-equipped adiPrene midsole. Featuring a flame-like interpretation of the iconic three-stripe logo down its flank, there’s plenty to enjoy with this latest release from adidas.
