adidas Originals and Kanye West continue their coveted collaboration this season, unveiling the ‘Inertia’ colour scheme – previously seen on the YEEZY BOOST 700 – across the 700 v2 silhouette.
This ‘Inertia’ iteration follows in the footsteps of the previous release, panelled with reflective 3M detailing to the sidewalls to keep you visible in low light. Finally, adidas’ hallmark BOOST technology embeds itself into the sole unit to cushion your every step.

Created in collaboration with Liam Gallagher, the LG SPZL is the latest exclusive release from adidas SPEZIAL.
Liam Gallagher has stayed true to his roots since his first ever pair of adidas trainers, a pair of Kicks in which he wore religiously so for the two to come together has been a natural process as Gary Aspden explains…
‘I have known Liam for over 20 years and we have always got on. He is one of the people who has worn and supported what we do with adidas Spezial since day one so this collaboration evolved organically.’ explains Gary Aspden. ‘He liked the silhouette of the Padiham SPZL on the whole but said he wanted it to look neutral and understated. This shoe became foundation for the LG SPZL.’
Coming off the back of a couple releases featuring blue hues such as the WMNS ‘Blue Chill’ and Nike SB iteration of the AJ1 Low ‘UNC’, Jordan Brand return the latest ‘Obsidian’ version.

Continuing in the futuristic footsteps of the 700 V3 ‘AZAEL’, adidas and YEEZY are back with another iteration of their 700 V3 silhouette.
The YEEZY 700 V3 Arzareth features an upper composed of engineered mesh in a blue hue with RPU overlays for structure and durability while the bootie construction provides a snug adaptable fit. The cage has glow in the dark features that provide a unique look and feel.
This model features no-tie stretch laces for easy on and off wear and comes equipped with a second set of standard laces. The PU encapsulated EVA midsole provides comfort and durability, and the herringbone rubber outsole offers unique design cues and improved traction.
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of “GEL-LYTE III”, the three-way collaboration between Atmos x Sean Wotherspoon x ASICS Sportstyle finally comes to fruition.
Ever since its release, the Air Jordan 1 model has been one of a few silhouettes that have undergone many renditions whether it being a new colourway, various material changes or hybrids. Most recently, the smooth Satin fabric has graced the popular retro from ‘Bred’, ‘Royal’ to ‘Shattered Backboard’ respectively as well as Alaeli May’s collaboration. Jordan Brand are now applying this on another original colourway, the ‘Black Toe’.
