After being teased and previewed since January, Kanye West and adidas's YEEZY 700 V3 "Alvah" is now set for a full retail release. Only the second YEEZY 700 V3 to come to market after December 2019's "Azael," the "Alvah" discards the heavenly tones of its predecessor in favor of a look that's much more stark — but certainly not subdued. Uppers are constructed of two major parts: a monofilament mesh base and a cut-out RPU exoskeleton. Both are dressed in black tones, but the mesh offers steel and dark gray stripes for a touch of sporty contrast. Neoprene sockliners ensure snug-yet-supple comfort, and reflective detailing is present on the throat. Where the YEEZY BOOST 700 and YEEZY BOOST 700 V2 both used chunky, blocky midsoles, the V3 opts instead for a sleek, speedy style that comes to an elevated point by the heel in a manner similar to the YEEZY BOOST 380. This polyurethane build takes on a smoky black hue, and is equipped with EVA foam — visible through the cut-out h..

Is YEEZY Season approaching? Kanye West was recently spotted on the streets of Los Angeles sporting a new footwear design that first surfaced at the YEEZY Season 8 runway presentation, offering a new angle of the tall boots. View this post on Instagram ? A post shared by @ gc.zap on Apr 7, 2020 at 2:28pm PDT En route to his office in Calabasas, Kanye sported unreleased yellow YEEZY boots, which were originally worn by a female model. This dispels any notion that the shoes will be offered exclusively in women's sizes, simultaneously revealing more angles of the lug-soled shoes. West paired the boots with washed-out denim and a navy Spring/Summer 2018 Martine Rose fleece jacket, offering a stark contrast to the bright footwear. YEEZY Season 8 runway Martine Rose SS18 runway Unsurprisingly, official dates for the YEEZY Season 8 launch have yet to be announced. As West recently said, however, “I believe that YEEZY is the McDonald’s and the Apple of apparel,” so expect a widesprea..

Kyrie Irving's fascination with the stars and the great unknown makes him a perfect candidate for Nike Basketball's "Planet of Hoops" pack, so the Kyrie 6 has been presented in a new space-themed style. This design sets an eerie prescient for future months with a hand-scrawled "There Is No Coming Back" text on its lateral quarter, an embellishment that unintentionally acknowledges the global changes forced by the COVID-19 coronavirus. However, there's plenty of other less serious details and colors to be had on Irving's new shoes. The base is made up of white and tan tones, with a dripping slime green Swoosh present under the aforementioned message. Textured heel pieces are dressed in a rich black, and the forefoot strap offers a semi-translucent, glow-in-the-dark construction with an all-seeing eye embellishment. Lateral sides are richly detailed as well, with the inner quarter featuring a galaxy-centric doodle that shows a small black Swoosh surrounded by shooting..

After linking up with Salomon on a pair of technical S/Lab slip-ons, Boris Bidjan Saberi has released a new slate of premium leather sneakers. The brand has delivered its Bamba2 silhouette in three earthy colorways, offering up minimalistic red, grey and black editions. Crafted of leather and made in Spain, the low-top sneakers feature a faded design on the upper for a worn-in look. Each version is patched with colorblocked strips on the side panels, which adds to the style's taped-up aesthetic. Other details include tonal laces, a pull loop at the heel and silvertone hardware, while a classic rubber sole finishes it off. Priced at $1,325 USD, Boris Bidjan Saberi's Bamba2 Sneakers in "Blood Red," grey, and black are available now at SSENSE's webstore.

Doodles, scribbles and sketches are all important parts of a sneaker's design process, and although they don't usually see the spotlight, Nike Sportswear's Air Force 1 "Sketch" puts them front and center. The AF1 "Sketch" has already released in "White/Black" and "Black/White" colorways, but now it's scheduled to receive its most sporty makeup yet: a "Racer Blue"-accented style. In line with past makeups, the base of this sketched Air Force 1 is constructed of classic tumbled leather — here presented in a crisp white. Hand drawn-style "Racer Blue" embellishments are then scattered across the upper, ranging from a large Swoosh on the lateral quarter to outlined text branding on the heel. There's also a small Swoosh embroidered on the lateral side as well as a proliferation of technical text, ranging from "Variable Width Lacing System" to "Nike Air Force 1" and "1982," the year the Force first came to market. Branded tongue tags add a final touch of flair to the ..

Salehe Bembury may be the Vice President of Sneakers & Men's Footwear at Versace, but he's a man of many hats whose latest project is collaboration with Chinese brand ANTA. Mostly known in the US as the makers of Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson's signature shoes, ANTA also has a burgeoning lifestyle business that's now being bolstered by Bembury's signature high-street touch. View this post on InstagramSalehe Bembury x Anta @antasportsofficial A post shared by Salehe Bembury (@salehebembury) on Apr 7, 2020 at 11:42pm PDT The in-demand designer's original ANTA silhouette is at once technical, conceptual and classic. Dressed entirely in a soft gray shade — save for the gum sole — it offers a synthetic shroud upper with textured dots on the toebox and lateral side. Meanwhile, the medial half presents a stripped-back mesh emblazoned with a metallic silver ANTA logo. All of this is secured by a zip closure above the laces, and sits atop a sock-like kn..

UPDATE (April 8, 2020): HUMAN MADE has offered a closer look at its forthcoming adidas Superstar 80s sneaker collaboration. The three silhouettes are informed by monochrome uppers, complete with stylized HUMAN MADE branding. Specifically, "GEARS FOR FUTURISTIC TEENAGERS" text appears across each of the Three Stripes on the lateral and medial sides, while a red HUMAN MADE heart appears on the heel panel. Otherwise, the sneakers are relatively conventional, with tonal or gold branding atop the tongues and muted cream sole.

Continuing its hot streak of collaborations after teaming up with The North Face for a FW19 capsule collection, ROA for a vibrant SS20 footwear collaboration, and Timex for a 40mm Fabric Strap Watch, Los Angeles-based streetwear imprint Brain Dead apparently has a collaboration with Reebok Classic brewing behind the scenes. As teased by designer/founder Kyle Ng on Instagram, the shoe looks to be a spin on the Reebok Classic Leather, updating the iconic silhouette with a slew of fuzzy materials in earthy tones. The shoe’s upper flips the original tumbled leather upper for a robust mesh, with the paneled cages that run through the mid-foot sections utilizing a clay-colored suede, while the panels running parallel to the lacing system have been crafted in shaggy brown suede. The same brown suede is featured on the tongue, which features a vibrant yellow tag with Brain Dead’s Head motif, as well as purple accents on the lining. The laces have been provided in an equally fuzzy material in y..
