In today’s video I’m reviewing a shoe I picked up on discount – the New Balance Fresh Foam X 1080 Utility in “Arctic Grey”. This Utility version is extremely similar to the normal 1080 V13, but features genuine suede throughout the shoe and is dressed in a tonal look – all done up in a beautiful grey-blue shade. Check out my review for my review from a lifestyle lens, and let me know what you think down below!
As winter dawns upon us, Saucony dropped a few pairs under their “Winter Tech” collection, which beefs up some of their most popular models with more weather-appropriate touches.

Anyone intrigued by these?
As part of Kith’s Winter ’24 line, they dropped a couple of Asics collaborations, including the Gel-Nimbus 10.1 that I’m reviewing today. This pair features white mesh, with silver synthetic leather and TPU overlays resulting in a dark, winteresque vibe. The upper of this shoe is also paired with the tooling of the Gel-Kayano 14, resulting in a familiar but still new fusion. Check out my review for all you need to know and to see how they are on feet!
As part of Kith’s Winter ’24 line, they dropped a couple of Asics collaborations, including the Gel-Kayano 12.1 that I’m reviewing today. This pair features cream mesh, with translucent TPU layers in a pale mint tone. The upper of this shoe is also paired with the tooling of the Gel-Nimbus 17, resulting in a mashup that is refreshingly new but still works.

Montreal-based design studio, JJJJound, is known for their minimalistic takes and the same holds true in their latest collaboration with Asics.

Australian boutique, Up There, is set to release their latest New Balance collab, this time releasing a colourful take on the 860 V2 sneaker. Dropping at the end of October, these feature a blue mesh base, green synthetic nubuck overlays, brown detailing, and pink laces. A random mix of colours but somehow they just work! Check out my early review and huge thanks to Up There for the early oop!
Originally released as a performance running shoe, New Balance recently reintroduced the 740 model, completely retooled as a lifestyle sneaker.
