The Nike ACG Izy originally released in the late 90s but finally received its first retro treatment with the release a couple months ago. Over the holidays I picked up this “Khaki” colourway, which has that quintessential winter-hiking shoe look, with a lot more comfort and style. Check out my review to learn more about these!
First released in 2007, the “Black Cat” Air Jordan 3 has finally returned. This black-out colourway features a nubuck upper, shiny patent leather layers, and the signature elephant print but also turned all-black. Given the popularity of the “Black Cat” 4s, it’ll be interesting to see how these fare in today’s sneaker climate! Is anyone picking these up?
In Jordan Brand tradition, to celebrate the upcoming Lunar New Year, they’re releasing a special edition Air Jordan 1 Low OG. This “Year of the Snake” colourway pairs smooth white and grey leather with ripstop nylon (reminiscent of snakeskin) and iridescent accents. Tune into my review for all you need to know and to see how they are on feet! Anyone going for these?
New Balance and JJJJound released their newest interpretation of the 2002R silhouette, once again made for the winter weather with Gore-Tex! This simple colourway is crafted out of premium, soft, black leather, with minimal accents in blue on the heel. Check out my review and comment below your opinions – was this a cop or a pass for you?

This time, they worked together to release a Gel-Venture 6 Shield, a trail runner with a lifestyle flair. Tune into my review for all the information you need, and to see who these look on feet! Anyone else grab a pair of them too?
I’m ringing in the new year with a review of a brand I’ve yet to cover – Salomon. Last week, Kith dropped a 3-pair collaboration, including this white-based XT-4K model that I’m reviewing today. This trail-runner is given lifestyle fashion appeal with white and grey base layers accented with bright red hits! Check out my review on this pair and let me know if you also picked these up for yourself!
Even though summer is over, Concepts’ latest collaboration with Asics gives us that reminder of warmer days gone by. This “Out of Office” colourway of the Gel-Kayano 14 features tropical tones of cream, red and neon green, dressing up this popular runner as if its on vacation. Tune into my review for all the info you need and let me know if you also grabbed a pair of these too!
