Take A Closer Look At The Travis Scott x Nike Air Max 1 For The First Time

Even though we're nearing the end of the year, there's still a lot of heat to be had. From a plethora of Yeezy releases to a bevy of Off-White collaborations, the Travis Scott x Nike Air Max 1 is the collection we're most excited about.

We had no idea what to anticipate when the initial leaks of this Air Max 1 collaboration surfaced over seven months ago. The mock-ups were a touch shady, and most of the information around the drop seemed off. After all, why would La Flame release five AM1s in a row?! He's never done anything like that before! As we have our finest look yet at the "Baroque Brown" and the "Wheat," it appears he'll be proving us wrong.

These two pairs, painted in an earthy palette and vivid tones, appear to be from opposing ends of the color spectrum. The "Baroque Brown" features vivid red highlights, whilst the "Wheat" features strong cyan colours. All of this is painted on top of a beautiful ballistic mesh, quality leather, and buttery suede construction.

Of course, no discussion of this collaboration would be complete without noting the inverted Swoosh on the lateral panel, which pays homage to the Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 High "Dark Mocha" from 2019. There are also some Boy Scout-inspired elements, such as patterned ribbons and flags. A new "CJ" insignia can be found on the tongue, and a "Cactus Corporation" logo that we've never seen before can be found right under the shoe.

The Nike Air bubble, as we've already stated, is the most contentious aspect of this sneaker. The visible unit is, without a doubt, one of the AM1's most distinctive characteristics, thus the American rapper's decision to remove it entirely is a statement in and of itself.

The Travis Scott x Nike Air Max 1 will be released later this year alongside the "Cave Stone," "Grey Haze," and "Saturn Gold."

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.
