Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG "Travis Scott"

 Materials: 

Nike obviously wanted to give this collaboration shoe the "premium" treatment. The leather and suede are among the best we've seen on a Jordan 1. In addition to high-quality materials, details like the hidden stash pocket and subtle "Catcus Jack" branding set this shoe apart from other AJ1 releases.

Construction: 

With so many nuanced details on this shoe, I was honestly expecting a lot of sub-par elements in terms of construction, but that was simply not the case on my pair. There were no obvious flaws, such as glue stains around the midsole, and the stitching was all clean.

Fit: 

When it comes to sizing, most people can wear Jordan 1s true to size, but those who prefer a snug fit can go down half a size. I usually wear a 12 in Nike shoes, but I like to wear an 11.5 in Air Jordan 1s to avoid toe-box creasing.

Comfort: 

Because this is a 1985 shoe, the comfort of this sneaker won't be anything to write home about. It's not the most comfortable shoe on the market, but it's also not the worst.

Overall, the cushioning and flexibility of these shoes are minimal, so I would not recommend wearing them while being active for an extended period of time.

On the plus side, if traction is important to you, these shoes have the best traction of any shoe, new or old.

Wearability: 

This shoe is polarizing yet intriguing, with its over-sized reversed swoosh, multiple lace options, and brown-ish, earthy appearance. Step out in a pair of these and you will undoubtedly turn heads.

Putting together outfits with the shoe will be simple as well. A simple jean and solid t-shirt outfit works well, while the sneakers speak for themselves.

The Nike Zoom Pegasus Trail 3 GORE-TEX Foregoes Visibility In Favor Of Stealth

Image
The Nike Pegasus Trail 3 GORE-TEX brings the Nike Pegasus line's dependability to less-than-ideal terrain. The silhouette has gone for an all-black look for its latest look.  The “GORE-TEX”-branded and strengthened uppers, as well as the Nike React foam cushioning, have the aforementioned tonal makeup, which differs from a lot of other Swoosh trail-ready offerings. The pitch-dark color scheme extends to functional components at the tip of the toe, around the laces, and at the heel. The design decision will undoubtedly allow for a smooth transition from urban to rural surroundings while also effectively masking wear and tear. The brand has not announced an official Nike.com release date, but this pair is expected to appear before the end of 2021. In any case, have a look at the photos of the sneakers below. Nike Pegasus Trail 3 GORE-TEX "Black" Release Date: 2021 Color: Black/Black/Black Mens: N/A Style Code: DC8793-001

Review: Nike Air Max 90 Hot Coral

Image
Features These arrive in a slender red and grey Nike box, same like the other AMIII colorways. On one side of the box is a flashback boxtag, and on the other is the current tag. An orange rubbery plastic hangtag, magenta anatomical arch supports, and basic flat white laces are included. The inside of the tongue has a retro size tag, and the size is stated inside the ankle. Materials There's nothing out of the ordinary here; the recraft quality is on par with the other AM3 retros. With the felt swoosh, the upper is primarily smooth leather and mesh. The materials are softer and more durable than non-recraft AM90s, but the shoe isn't quite a "materials" sneaker. The sole purpose of this shoe is to elicit that old 1990 vibe, and the materials are acceptable for that purpose. Fitting For these Nike Air Max 90 Hot Coral, I went with a Women's 11.5 size, which is the equal of a Men's size 10. In most Nikes, I get a ten, and that's what I received here. These are...

With This Spooky Superstar, adidas Gets Into The Halloween Spirit

Image
adidas isn't usually one to get into the Halloween mood, but this year is different. The company has been teasing what's in store for the night since July, with delights like applique-adorned ZX 8000s and a Jack-O-Lantern embellished Superstar, as seen above.  The shell toe, unlike the ZX runner, is considerably more restrained, opting for a basic get-up. The side is made up of black corduroy and tumbled leather stripes, with a shadow plaid eye stay in the middle. The carved spider web design on the tongue, despite being blackened out, adds intrigue. Orange logos and pumpkin dubraes appear everywhere, while the lining stands out with its fuzzy green material. Check out the official photos below for a closer look.  A release date has been set for October, with sizes expected to be available on adidas.com and potentially at select stores.
