Monday 20th May

Wales Bonner x adidas Samba ‘Desert White’ | IH3261

Continuing their prestigious partnership, Wales Bonner x adidas are back to give the people what they want (and need) for SS24. Landing alongside the revival of the Samba Millenium, you already know that the alliance couldn’t complete the seasonal capsule without a classic Samba. The ‘Desert White’ offering flaunts an immaculately smooth leather base adorned with textured suede hits. Blue insoles highlight accents of colour in the laces, effortlessly achieving that polished yet authentic steez. Inviting a very Wales Bonner edge, faux reptile leather enters at the 3-Stripes, heel tab and tongue, reminding us of the legacy at hand.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles x adidas Superstar Shelltoe ‘Shredder’ | IH7767

Stepping into the darker side of the TMNT universe, feast your eyes on the Shredder adidas Superstar, a sneaker that channels the essence of the fearsome antagonist. Drawing inspiration from Shredder’s samurai-like armour, this shoe rocks a sleek black leather upper with bold white highlights, mirroring the sharp angles of his iconic outfit. The real star of the show has to be the special dubraes, flaunting a shiny Shredder helmet and medallion, and capturing the very soul of the TMNT’s arch enemy.

Futura x Nike SB Dunk Low ‘Bleached Aqua’ | HF6061-400

Back in 2003, we saw the first collaboration between graffiti artist Futura and Nike SB. Just over two decades later, excitement is growing for this well-known New York artist’s next work. Flaunting a white mesh base with pops of blue and pink, the iteration sports a translucent blue sole and a dark blue Swoosh. Showing off the artists’ wild style, his signature is stamped on the tongue and heel, commemorating not only his legacy, but dedication to the sub-label.

J Balvin x Air Jordan 3 ‘Rio’ | FN0344-001

Named after J Balvin’s two year old son Rio (big flex), the kicks boast a sleek leather black base. Boasting a sleek leather black base, these Air Jordan 3’s differ significantly to the light palette of the Medellín Sunset model. ‘Solar Flare’ and ‘Total Crimson Abyss’ hues grace the exterior, communicated through a multi-gradient midsole, and of course, it wouldn’t be a J Balvin x Jumpman collaboration without the iconic smiley and co-branding.

Sporty & Rich x adidas Handball Spezial ‘Pink’ | IH2610

Garnering much attention from sneaker and fashion enthusiasts alike, Sporty & Rich reunites with the Three-Stripes to give us another banger. Or three. Arriving in perfect timing for SS24, the adidas Handball Spezial is next up to receive the S&R treatment. Staying true to the LA lifestyle label’s aesthetic of timeless minimalism, the collaboration at hand keeps things elegantly simple. Arriving across three palettes of ‘Green’, ‘Pink’ and ‘Brown’, each offering boasts a smooth suede upper. Maintaining a fresh vibe with off-white 3-Stripes and the shoe’s classic gum sole, these kicks don’t have to do a whole lot to deliver effective style.

Nike Air 180 ‘Ultramarine’ 2024 | FJ9259-100

Prepare to take a nostalgic journey through sneaker history as the iconic Nike Air 180 in its OG ‘Ultramarine’ colourway gears up for a highly anticipated return. Crafted by the visionary Tinker Hatfield in 1991, these sneakers haven’t graced the shelves in their original form since 2018. But fear not, because they’re coming back better than before (debatably, of course). Boasting a notable upgrade of a larger Air Unit than the OG version, the shoe features a clean white mesh upper for a stealthy aura whilst sustaining optimal breathability.

Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low OG ‘Elkins’ | DZ4137-700

Landing as the Houston-born rapper’s seventh take on the model, you already know he had to turn things up a notch. Gone are the days of earthy neutrals – and instead, the alliance are keeping things light, breezy, and pastel. Paying homage to the colours of Travis Scott’s high school, Lawerence E. Elkins High, this wholesome offering is an ode to the birth of his love for music and performance.
