Tracksmith Eliot Runner
Tracksmith is a running apparel brand first and foremost, but with the debut of its Eliot Runner, the brand is moving into new territory. Details are currently limited about the fresh new Eliot Runner, other than its midsole is Pebax Powered and the upper section of breathable mesh looks clean in the cream and navy blue striped colourway.
Unisex Converse X GOLF le FLEUR* GLF 2.0 Low Top Brilliant White
With the ubiquitous popularity of the lowcut white sneaker only growing, this Converse collaboration with Tyler, the Creator’s own GOLF le FLEUR* brand is a thoughtful twist on an enduring classic. With white suede and canvas uppers, a creamy midsole outer and pastel pink outsoles, it ticks all the boxes you want without missing the subtle details that make them distinct from your standard Stan Smiths.
Aimé Leon Dore Garden Mule
Aimé Leon Dore is one of the coolest brands on the planet at the moment, thanks to its effortless New York-focused brand of smart casual and countless collaborations with New Balance and beyond. While its footwear link-ups have always sold out quickly, the Aimé Leon Dore Garden Mule is a rare ALD-branded shoe that boasts a Birkenstock-esque cork footbed and all the convenience of a slip-on slide.
Nike Air Zoom Alphafly NEXT% 2 Orange
While not a brand new Nike silhouette, the Air Zoom Alphafly NEXT% 2 in the orange colourway was the pair of shoes that Eliud Kipchoge wore when he broke the marathon world record in Berlin over the weekend. After running the first half in an eye-watering 59.51, Kipchoge only slowed slightly and crossed the finish line 30 seconds faster than the world record he’d set four years earlier in the German capital. If you’re in the market for a fast pair of road runners, look no further.
Malbon Golf x New Balance 997G
Golf fans have consistently loved the collaborative efforts of Malbon Golf and New Balance, and this latest run of 997G’s should be no different. Executed in a cream/grey blend with black highlights and white laces, the sole unit features FastTwist 3.0 Pulsar spikes for maximum traction on the green.
COMME des GARÇONS x Salomon Pulsar Platform
Salomon has been relentless over the last year with the number of collaborations they’ve been announcing, but the brand’s latest partner in COMME des GARÇONS is one of the best yet. Spotted on the CdG F/W22 runway, the two brands have cooked up an energy foam platform version of a Salomon silhouette, executed in triple black with elastic laces, a Matryx upper and an All Terrain Contagrip outsole.
Tom Sachs x NikeCraft General Purpose Shoe “Dark Sulfur”
The partnership between Thom Sacks and NikeCraft has years of history behind it, culminating in the much-hyped General Purpose Shoe that was designed to be straightforward, comfortable and easy to wear every day. Adding to the originally cream colourway of the GPS, the duo have also released a yellow version called “Dark Sulfur” and while it’s not quite as versatile, it still looks great.
A-COLD-WALL* x Converse Chuck 70
There’s a refreshing breeze moving through the halls of Coverse HQ at the moment, which can be tough for a brand so well known for just a few iconic silhouettes. However, with the recent collaboration with A-COLD-WALL* we see the quintessential Converse Chuck 70 that has been envigorated new design, including classic ACW motifs such as text across the midsole line and a block of reflective blue/grey film.
UGG X White Mountaineering Ca805 Trainer
If ever there was a footwear brand typcast for its success with a specific style of shoe, it’s UGG and its sheepskin lined winter slippers. Looking to break this mould, UGG has linked with White Mountaineering to create the rough and ready Ca805 Trainer that boasts a stacked EVA midsole unit and uppers constructed from Nubuck. It’s unexpected, and we like it.
