First Look: Nike Air Max 270 React - 'Hyper Jade'

Comprised almost of the same singular tone, the pairing of similar shades is a mix wholly cool in its place on the spectrum; deeper, aquas rest across the waved profile segments as well as the heel support, sitting immediately adjacent to one more green-tinted, a hit that also finds place across the toe cap, eye stay, and outsole.

Midsoles bear a slightly white yet slightly off-kilter hue, with the base layers left in a bright barely volt.

The Nike Air Max 270 React - 'Hyper Jade' is available at selected retailers. 

First Look: adidas Yeezy 500 - 'Bone White'

This adidas Yeezy 500 comes highlighted with Bone White mesh across the upper. Following, the latest verison features the traditional thick midsole which is inspired by the classic KB3, while suede lands on the overlays.

Completing the look is a Cream rubber outsole.

The adidas Yeezy 500 - 'Bone White' drops 24 August at selected retailers.

First Look: Nike WMNS Air Jordan 1 - 'Satin Black Toe'

The colour blocking and cut are true to the original, the construction is what’s different here, as the red heel piece and collar overlay are constructed of premium textiles to play up the shoe’s lifestyle feel.

The iconic ball-and-wings logo deviates from its original form as well, trading out stamped branding for a three-dimensional metal badge. There’s no skimping on the rest of the upper either, as it’s made up of a supple leather. The look is then completed by a white midsole and red outsole.

The Nike WMNS Air Jordan 1  - 'Satin Black Toe' drops this Saturday at selected retailers. 

First Look: Jordan Mars 270 - Crimson Tint

The shoe’s hybrid upper draws from the Air Jordan 1, Air Jordan 4, Air Jordan 5, and Air Jordan 6, and is dressed in black with grey accents. A white Swoosh/pink Jumpman logo on the tongue offer branded flair, while a cut-out take on the Air Jordan 5’s mid-foot provides what’s unquestionably the shoe’s most unique design detail.

 

Although several different silhouettes are fused together to create the upper, the midsole/outsole keeps things simple by comparison, equipping an Air Jordan 6 forefoot and Air Max 270 heel unit for a yin and yang of new classic and old favourite. An icy translucent outsole completes the visible part of the look, while hand-scrawled detailing on both the inner tongue and insole present hidden homages.

The Jordan Mars 270 - Crimson Tint drops 3 August at selected retailers.
