I recently picked up a pair of the New Balance 990 V6 “Sulphur” on sale, which had previously been sitting on store shelves for weeks. This Made in USA pair, part of Teddy Santis’ Season 3 collection, features a mix of pale yellow mesh and pig suede, along with bold green accents with the New Balance “N” logo and tongue.

Asics Gel-NYC “Concrete / Oatmeal” Review
I finally picked up a pair of the Asics Gel-NYC! This new lifestyle silhouette which debuted earlier this year, has released in a variety of colours and today I’ll be reviewing the “Concrete / Oatmeal” pair. Inspired by past silhouettes from Asics’ archive, these feature a mix of mesh, suede, and synthetic panels, giving it a mid 2000s design flare. Check out my review to learn more!
Born X Raised x Nike SB Dunk Low Pro QS “One Block At A Time” Review
My review of the ultra hyped SB Dunk collab between Born X Raised and Nike SB is here! Postponed due to the passing of BXR founder Chris “Spanto” Printup, these finally were sold to the public in late September. They feature a ton of unique detailing amidst an otherwise simple colourblocking of white leather and blue nubuck. Watch my review to learn more! Anyone else get luck and grab a pair for yourself?
Ronnie Fieg x Clarks x Adidas Samba “Summit White” Review
Ronnie Fieg worked with Adidas Originals and Clarks to design and release the 8th Street Samba – a unique twist on this classic Adidas shoe. Sold out quickly, and then offered up again as a pre-order earlier this year, I finally got my hands on the pair I ordered – the “Summit White” colourway. Check out my review of this mashup model and let me know if you think these are one of the best Adidas releases of the year!

Concepts x New Balance 998 “C-Note” (10th Anniversary) Review
One of the greatest New Balance collaborations of all time is back. The Concepts 998 “C-Note” originally released in 2013 and quickly gained cult status. Fast forward a decade later, to celebrate its 10th anniversary, the shoe has returned nearly identical to its original form. Check out my review to learn more about the retro and to see how it stacks up against the OG!

Kith x New Balance 1700 Toronto “Marshmallow” Review
To celebrate the opening of Kith’s Toronto location, they are releasing two Canadian-themed colourways of the New Balance 1700. Today I’m reviewing the “Marshmallow” colourway which was available at Kith stores as well as Kith’s website. Crafted using a light grey pig-suede, they also have Kith co-branding throughout, and bold red hits as well. Check out my review and drop a comment below!
