We’re now around 35 years since the Dunk debuted and since it took on the courts, it very quickly became cemented within streetwear culture and after a brief period away from the shelves, the last few years have seen the Nike Dunk come back in full force and its time for another new iteration to come to life!
One thing Nike has never shied away from is the use of loud, bold prints… notably animal prints. We’ve seen it famously on the Atmos Air Max 1 and Air Max 95 and even down to the recently launched Air Force 1 Safari Pack so it was only right that the Dunk received the same treatment.
The second in a two part animal inspired Dunks, the first was a giraffe/cheetah inspired print that delivered a range of soft brown hues and subtle camo print. This latest version however is a bit more striped back with a monochrome finish, the Dunk Low takes inspiration from the Zebra with a host of blacks and charcoals with contrasting white swoosh and midsole mimicking the animals stripes.

Following on from the 450 and 380, this latest 350 V2 ‘Mono Mist’ PRIMEKNIT upper seems to take on a semi transparent feel that displays a subtle, alien like cage that moulds around the foot. The usual earthy tones continue for this latest coming together with a mixture of deep brown and sandy hues.

This past year has seen the Forum gain a bit of a resurgence and to continue experimenting with the famed silhouette, adidas takes things to the extreme with the addition of an over exaggerated triple platform midsole.
First representing the court, the adidas Forum quickly made strides on the street as well and its this recipe that has been kept the same. A timeless design, the upper is made up of a soft yet durable soft grey leather with the recognisable ankle strap securing the wearers foot.
Here on down however, everything changes and the design is reimagined with the use of a triple platform, hence the name, ‘Triple PlatForum’. This multilayered midsole creates a unique look with the use of a gradient of pastel, gum shades creating a slightly aged look.

Based in London, Robi Walters has caught the public eye over the last decade with his vision and transformation of discarded objects creating new leases of life in lovingly pieced together collages. He has produced pieces for people such as Usain Bolt, Major Lazer’s Diplo, Jillioniare and has even collaborated with Mary J. Blige and Sir Paul McCartney.
Long time Footpatrol friend and Soho neighbour – Robi Walters’ gallery & studio space is found within the heart of Soho. We first met Robi in 2015 when he moved opposite the Footpatrol Store on Berwick Street before he later moved round the corner to Ingestre Place where his gallery now resides. Upholding the Soho community spirit we felt that this was a good reason to work alongside Robi to produce our latest Communi-T instalment.
For the t-shirt, Robi has hand-drawn one of his signature sketches, based on sacred geometry and the thousand petalled lotus. These drawings feature in a series of his work called ‘We Are Stardust’. All of Robi’s pieces are named after songs. This particular title is taken from the lyrics of a well-loved Joni Mitchell song, ‘Woodstock’.
Music has always been a huge influence on Robi and his artwork. To celebrate the launch of this project and the return of live music, we’re featuring a performance by IG Culture and his band LCSM (Likwid Continual Space Motion) – a live stream session in Robi’s studio curated by Leanne Wright. Robi will also be giving us insight into how the project began and the design concept and as well as talking about the charitable side of this campaign as we partner with London youth charity ‘Grow’. The proceeds from this release will be going towards expanding their excellent programming from their community farm, forest school and the work they do in schools to promote mental and physical well being and a more hands-on relationship with the natural world.
It wouldn’t be a special project though if there wasn’t a seriously exclusive element to this one-of-a-kind launch. As an addition to the tees designed by Robi, he has also hand-painted a series of 1of 5 custom Footpatrol T-shirts and 5 pairs of Converse that will be available for raffle live on Robi’s site soon! Four of the Converse and four of the T-shirts will be available via a raffle on Robi’s website (tickets will be £10 and £5 respectively with proceeds going to ‘Grow’ charity), make sure to check it out on the link below. Whilst Robi has also put together a special bundle consisting of a pair of the Converse, a T-shirt and a hand signed, hand painted piece which is currently up for auction with proceeds from all sales, going to ‘Grow’.

The Air Jordan 1 OG High is the gift that keeps on giving. What seems to be everybody’s favourite Jordan silhouette at current, the Air Jordan 1 doesn’t seem to be slowing down.
A model that has seen a slew of different colourways, OG retros and collaborations over the years, they demand for them is still high. The latest release is a testament to that.
The latest iteration of the ‘Court Purple’ line was first released in 1985 as part of the ‘Metallic Pack’ – a host of subtle coloured AJ1’s with a hit of metallic hues released in both high and low’s at the time. Then in 2009, Jordan Brand retro’d the pair in a mid cut version adding the Jumpman on the heel and tongue tab. Now 12 years later, consumers and collectors see the return in OG form and in women’s exclusive sizing.
Dressed in a clean white tumbled leather, purple hits are featured on the Swoosh and ankle collar – the latter in patent leather. Further purple details are on the satin lining for a luxury take, tongue tab, midsole and on the wings logo.

After the release of several women’s exclusive releases on the Nike Dunk silhouette, Nike doesn’t seem to be slowing down on that front.
This latest release is reminiscent of the Nike Dunk Low ‘Orange Pearl’ that launched in mid-March with similar hues, however, the forthcoming pair indulges in a smooth leather construction across its upper, with bases boasting an off-white ensemble. Crimson Tint overlays take up this version with signature collar wings, Nike branding on the tongue and white midsole to complete the model in time for the summer season.

Frequent collaborators, sacai and Nike return once again to reimagine one their iconic silhouettes. Whenever Chitose Abe and sacai approach a collaboration, there is a distinct need to create something new and exciting whilst also paying respect the heritage that comes with the chosen silhouette.
Though we’ve seen the duo use the Blazer silhouette in previous collaborations, Chitose Abe brings a new approach by slicing the top off to reimagine a Blazer Low that features a leather upper with exposed foam liners. This latest coming together keeps the best of those previous iterations with sacai’s signature design touches like the stacked swooshes, tongues and double lacing.
