Bloody Murder Screams From Vans' Horror Collection

The new Vans footwear line takes Cardi B's famous statement, "These are bloody shoes," to new heights.

With a collection of gruesome shoes and clothing, the sneaker giant will pay homage to all of your favorite horror flicks, like The Shining, It, and A Nightmare on Elm Street, next month.

Vans released a short clip last week that teased a variety of scary designs. In order to build excitement for the release, the skate shoe retailer recently uploaded a series of close-up images, asking consumers to identify all of the movie allusions included in the collection.

A Sk8-Hi with yellow images from the original poster for The Shining is available for Stanley Kubrick enthusiasts. The scary twins from the flick star in a pair of slip-ons.

In an homage to It, the Authentic is strewn with red balloons, which are Pennywise's go-to party treat.

Freddy Krueger's striped sweater serves as the foundation for yet another Sk8-Hi, with blood splatters adorning the top and midsole.

Finally, a splattered rendition of Jason Voorhees' mask appears on a Friday the 13th Slip-On.

There's also plenty of clothing to go with the shoes, like sweatshirts, tees, and hats.

This isn't the first time horror has been used as a fashion inspiration. Wacko Maria released a collection of shirts, outerwear, and even dishes depicting Anthony Hopkins as cannibalistic serial murderer Hannibal only last week.

Undercover presented a collection inspired by Luca Guadagnino's Suspiria remake for Fall/Winter 2019. A pair of models recalling Kubrick's frightening twins concluded the brand's Spring/Summer 2018 show only a few years ago.

Not to mention Supreme's Hellraiser collaboration, which has a variety of Pinhead-printed items.

Vans hasn't revealed a release date for their horror collection, but it'll most likely arrive around Halloween.

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.
