Aimé Leon Dore released this orange-based take on the New Balance 990 V4 last year, but I scooped them up during their end of year holiday sale. Who can say no to discounted collabs? In my video I break down all the components of the shoe and show you how they are on feet. Thoughts on them?
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!
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?
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!
Kith’s latest project with Madison Square Garden saw the release of three New Balance models – a 991 V2, and two Numeric 480s which fall under the brand’s skateboarding line. Today I’m reviewing both of these, which are dressed in the familiar colours of the New York Knicks. Check out my review for all the info you need and to see how both pairs look on feet! Which of the two are you feeling more?
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!
Shenzhen-based boutique, Costs, is set to release their follow up collab with Saucony, again with a Kinvara 4 RE silhouette. This “Meterorite Sand” colourway brushes the entire shoe with a clay-like, red toned finish, while pairing the synthetic layers with premium nubuck, and an iridescent Saucony logo on the side. Tune into my review for an early look and to see how they are on feet!
Montreal-based design studio, JJJJound, is known for their minimalistic takes and the same holds true in their latest collaboration with Asics. Releasing three colourways of the GT-2160, today I’m reviewing the White / Black pair, which released at the end of October. Check out my in-depth review and see how they are on feet! Was this a cop or a drop for you?
I recently picked up the “University Gold / Black” Zoom Vomero 5 by Nike for under retail. A bright and bold colourway that offers a little something different stylistically, while still retaining incredible comfort that the model is known for. Check out my video to learn more about this pair and to see how these look on feet! Anyone else pick up a pair of these?
