This year marks the 75th anniversary of Jackie Robinson breaking the colour barrier of baseball, and Nike released a special edition Dunk Low to commemorate this moment in history. These are inspired by the colours of the Brooklyn Dodgers, and feature a blend of quality materials in eye popping colours. Check out my review and let me know if you managed to hit on a pair too!

Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Stage Haze” (Bleached Coral) Review
Earlier this month Jordan Brand released a new colourway of the iconic Air Jordan 1 silhouette! The “Stage Haze” colourway, as it is nicknamed, features a mix of white and black coloured leather, grey suede, and pink accents on the tongue and insole. Definitely a very versatile and easy to wear pair! Check out my review to learn more and to see how they look on feet!

New Balance 2002R “Phantom / Magnet” (M2002RHO)” Review
Today I’m reviewing one of general release 2002R colourways to release this year, the “Phantom / Magnet” edition that dropped recently in Canada. Featuring a mix of suede, mesh and nubuck on the upper, the entire shoe is given a vintage vibe with a faded upper, and yellowed midsole which makes the shoe seem like it’s straight from the 80s. Check out my review for a closer look!

Teddy Santis x New Balance 990 V2 (M990TC2) “Sea Salt” Review
After being named last year as New Balance Made In USA’s Creative Director, Teddy Santis dropped another pair from his 16-pair collection late last month through a raffle on Aime Leon Dore’s website. The 990 V2 returned in a very simple and clean white-based mesh / full grain leather construction – that makes it a very wearable and versatile pair to rock in the warm weather months ahead.
