Nike Air Max 95 ‘Unearthed’ – SNKRS Exclusive (HM0953-100)
Arriving in celebration of three decades of the Nike Air Max 95, the Swoosh introduces the distinctively unique ‘Erosion’ colourway. While understated at first glance, the real intrigue lies in the details – soft pastel pink suede on the lateral side transitions into deep aubergine, while the medial side features creamy tan leather fading into rich chocolate brown. A blacked-out midsole, inspired by the earth’s crust, and bright blue Air bubbles provide both comfort and contrast, celebrating nature’s raw beauty for a striking, asymmetric design.

adidas Goldie SPZL ‘Metalheadz’ (JI2085)
Cultural icon, Goldie, is taking on an exciting new venture with the launch of his first-ever collaboration with adidas SPZL! Utilising only the most premium of textiles, a sleek blend of sail and white nylon is meticulously accented by leather details. Metallic gold heel counters and shimmering three-stripe overlays bring a bold, modern flair to its classic construction, whilst paying visual homage to the golden legacy (and name) of the creative multi-hyphenate. Graffiti-inspired gold dubraes and graphic insoles nod to Goldie’s artistic roots, while pink tongue tags add a vibrant contrast. Co-branded detailing throughout and a durable black rubber outsole ground the design, merging artistic expression with timeless adidas SPZL functionality.

A full-length Air Max unit, reminiscent of the Air Max 97, provides both comfort and style with its clear finish, while a durable Black rubber outsole means traction even when the path gets slippery.
