It’s been a while, but Jordan Brand has finally brought back the beloved “Grape” Air Jordan 5. Last seen in OG form in 2013, this 2025 retro is as close to the original ’90 release as we’ve seen, with an improved shape, genuine white leather along the upper, and the signature purple and teal tones. Tune into my review for a closer look and to see how these are on feet!

JJJJound x Asics Gel-Kayano 14 “Baby Blue” & “Midnight Navy” Review
Montreal-based design studio, JJJJound, dropped their second collection of Asics Gel-Kayano 14s last week, with a “Baby Blue” and “Midnight Navy” colourway each selling out quick. Today I’m reviewing both pairs, which retain the understated look that JJJJound collabs are known for. Tune into my review for an in-depth break down and to see how each pair looks on feet!
Better Gift Shop x Nike Air Max DN8 “Revenge” Review
Toronto-based brand and boutique, Better Gift Shop, just dropped their first collaboration ever with Nike. The Air Max DN8 is wrapped in grey tones, with reflective lines all throughout creating an extremely unique look. Blue accents are featured throughout, including on the eight Dynamic Air pods visible throughout the midsole. Tune into my review and let me know if you’re a fan of this collab or not!
New Balance 992 “Sweet Caramel” Review
Dropping just in time for summer to kick off, New Balance’s 992 is back in this beautiful “Sweet Caramel” colourway. This Made in USA shoe features similarities to the limited Packer collaboration from years past – with a similar golden suede upper with cream accents (albeit, on a GR model). Tune into my video for an in-depth review, and leave your opinions on these down below!
New Balance Abzorb 2010 “Grey Days” Review
I’m back with another review of the New Balance Abzorb 2010. This colourway released as part of the brand’s Grey Day collection and it features a mix of mesh, soft nubuck and suede, and reflective detailing. Probably my fave colourway of the silhouette to drop so far in its short history! Tune into my review for an in-depth breakdown!
Air Jordan 3 Retro “Rare Air” Review
The Jordan Brand Rare Air series continues with the release of these Air Jordan 3s. Inspired by samples and prototypes that don’t make the cut, these are share similarities to the “Black Cement” Air Jordan 3 but incorporate purposely placed “imperfections” like a flipped back tab, and suede instead of elephant print. Check out my review and to hear my thoughts on this unique spin on a classic!
Kith x New Balance Abzorb 2010 “Purple” Review
Ronnie Fieg is tapping into this brand new New Balance silhouette, the Abzorb 2010, releasing two colourways this coming Monday, May 19th. The one I’m reviewing is the beautiful “Purple” colourway, which features a mix of purple mesh, pig suede and synthetic nubuck layers. Watch my video for a detailed look and breakdown, and best of luck to anyone going for these tomorrow!
RunDisney x Brooks Ghost Max 2 “Mickey Mouse” Review
Releasing in time for the RunDisney Springtime Surprise Weekend event, Brooks dropped a four shoe pack, headlined (in my opinion) by the Mickey Mouse themed “Ghost Max 2”. This is my first ever Brooks shoe pickup, and I’m a fan! Check out my review for my in-depth look at this running / walking sneaker and to see how all the unique Mickey details within it!
Action Bronson x New Balance 990 V6 “Amazonia” (Ainozama) Review
Action Bronson and New Balance followed up on the “Untitled” 990 V6 with their fourth 990 V6 collaboration called “Amazonia”. This eclectic pair sees an upper of pink mesh and blue overlays mixed with tan suedes. Check out my video for a detailed breakdown and on feet look! Who else picked up a pair of these back in April?
