Air Jordan 15 x Billie Eilish
Billie Eilish has been sporting Air Jordans on stage since day one but now she’s been given the opportunity to put her own twist on the Air Jordan 15. It’s one of Eilish’s all-time favourite silhouettes and her take sports a monochromatic, sleek colourway that mimics the colours of her latest album ‘Happier Than Ever’. The shoes were also designed with sustainable materials and at least 20% recycled material. They’re due to drop at Nike on 30th September.
adidas Superturf Adventure SW
Sean Wotherspoon has designed some of the most sought-after sneakers of the last decade. For this latest collaboration, he teams with adidas for a shoe that’s tailor-made for outdoor activity. They’re for the environment and also kind for the environment using recycled materials and a fully vegan design. Coming complete with a corduroy bag over the laces, these shoes are ready to keep you outside and comfortable all day long.
Nike Air Huarache ‘Toadstool’
The Nike Air Huarache revival continues celebrating the 30 year anniversary of the shoe with a new colourway. Toadstool-coloured leather and Chestnut Brown laces meet the classic neoprene-like fabric. The classic low-cut collar, iconic heel clip and bootie-like construction also feature, bringing pops of black to the shoes. Grab them from Nike on 1st October.
Air Jordan 11 Low IE ‘Bred’
It’s a massive week for Air Jordan fans. This ‘Bred’ colourway, celebrates the 25th anniversary of the Air Jordan 11. The shoes already feel like classics, showcasing a black and red colourway that is one of the most popular Air Jordan combinations. Black full-grain leather, mesh vents and suede overlays meet on the upper alongside sleek red lining. They drop at Nike on 1st October.
Nike Air Jordan 1 High KO ‘Storm Blue’
The Nike Air Jordan 1 High KO looks like a tried and tested classic but there are a few details that make it different to the usual release. The materials used on the upper are what makes it different, mixing synthetic leather and canvas. The canvas is lightweight and durable, providing a different look and feel for the Air Jordan 1. The colourway is classic though, bringing together storm blue, black and white. Subtype currently has the shoes listed as “Coming Soon”.
Nike Air Jordan 1 Low OG ‘Starfish’
The Air Jordan releases for the week continue with a Low OG. The ‘Starfish’ is an orange, white and black colourway, delivered on premium materials that explain a slightly higher price point. There’s also an encapsulated air unit providing lightweight cushioning while the upper is also light and durable. Subtype also has these ones listed as “Coming Soon”.
adidas x Jeremy Scott Forum Dipped Low
adidas has been reviving the Forum all year long but this has to be one of the most innovative yet. Jeremey Scott is never one to be shy with his designs and he doesn’t hold back with these. These glossy leather shoes come in neon colourways, looking like they’ve been dipped in slime. Subtype’s release date for these is currently set as “Coming Soon”.
adidas YEEZY Boost 700 V2 ‘Mauve’
The YEEZY Boost 700 is one of the most popular silhouettes in the YEEZY collection. Here, it returns in a ‘Mauve’ colourway, that combines dim tones of purple alongside reflective materials and mesh on the upper. There’s also suede and nubuck on the upper with the BOOST drop-in mid-sole for premium cushioning. Keep an eye on Subtype for release details.
