First introduced in 1995, the Nike Air Max 95 was part of Sergio Lozano’s design vision, creating an upper with its distinct wavy overlays heavily influenced by human anatomy. Showcasing the latest in Nike’s Air technology, Lozano’s 95 quickly become an icon on the streets of cities around the world, especially within London. To celebrate twenty-five years of the ’95, Footpatrol and Nike’s SNEAKRS app bring you a exclusive iteration.
For twenty-five years, London has had a nickname for the Air Max 95. Born of its original price-tag, the silhouette quickly became known as the ‘110’. Honouring this proud history, this latest release gives the shoe back to the city that shaped it.
Celebrating the story of its namesake, the ‘110’ nods to the OG ten pound note throughout: the logo on the tongue, the in-sock typeface, the metallic foil on the heel, the serial code on the orange air unit and even the individually-numbered woven label on the inside tongue. The silhouette is flush with details – all originating from the city’s nickname for the shoe.
Building on the classic grey fade, the ‘110’ looks to the textures of the city itself; cobbles, concrete, manholes, brutalist tower blocks, grates and bricks. A release designed by the city, the ’110’ belongs to the streets, to London and to the people.
Keeping the traditions of the 95 at the heart of this latest campaign, we took the shoe back to the streets of London to document those individuals who have become the modern fabric of street culture on the streets of London today and who find themselves within the communities where the Air Max 95 was most prominent.
Heading across London, we spent the day with the likes of Scott Garcia, a DJ and Producer who’s been a local to Footpatrol for many years and has been around since the ‘110’ first came about. Since growing up within the garage scene, Rhiannon Barry has seen street culture grow and develop into the scale that it’s at today and has resulted in her managing the well-known ‘Wavey Garms’ store.
Stay tuned for further launch information!
To celebrate the launch of the Air Max 95 ‘110’, we’ll be hosting a special launch event with Mantra at Phonox London. With Mantra resident DJ’s Bossy LDN in attendance, we’ll also have special appearances from Wookie, O-DESSA and Ollie Rant.

After the success of 2019’s FEARLESS ONES collection and firmly into 2020, Jordan brand bring us two new iterations based around two European cities using the Air Jordan I Low and Mid silhouettes as its base.
First up comes an AJ1 Low paying tribute to the city of Paris. The upper has been inspired by the instantly recognisable sandstone architecture and subtle blue skies that form over the cities skyline. A mixture of Leathers and suedes build on the luxe feel of the capital and its sophistication
Building on these city influences, the Air Jordan Mid focusses brings inspirations from the Italian city of Milan. Ever since 1986, Jordan has had a deep connection with Italian fashion since the Air Jordan II took interest in Italian craftsmanship. Building on the Air Jordan I Mid, this latest iteration builds on those roots by using an overlay of rich leathers, suedes and canvas’ dressed in a mixture of creams and beige tones, paying tribute to the city’s architectural history.

With an array of colour-ways released throughout 2019, things only look to be hotting up for the Jordan brand in 2020.
Early into the year we see the arrival of the Air Jordan I thats being dubbed as the ‘UNC to Chicago’. This latest women’s iteration takes two iconic Jordan colour schemes and pieces them together creating a unique approach to this AJ1’s panelling.
By combining MJ’s UNC college colours across the heel and Swoosh, the Chicago Bulls colour pallet takes prominence across the toe and outsole. Breaking apart these two colours sits a soft premium tumbled black leather across the upper.

With the focus in recent years turning heavily on the future of the world we live in and ways in which we can protect what we have, brands and people alike have been looking into ways we can reuse and reimagine resources.
Nike have just introduced their latest project known as Space Hippie. Space Hippie is an exploratory collection that uses their very own ‘Space Junk’ that comes from scraps of materials along there factory floors. With this project it has helped Nike produce their lowest carbon footprint scores ever.
This latest collection focusses on three key points. The upper is constructed using 100 percent recycled material, this ‘Space Waste Yarn’ as Nike like to call it, is a mixture of plastic water bottles, t-shirts and yarn scraps. This helps create an upper that, by weight is 90 percent recycled.
For the cushioning and outer sole, you still get Nikes famed ZOOMX foam but in a completely new way. Utilising factory scraps found within the production line of the Vaporfly 4%, Nike reprocesses the foam using half the CO2e that normal Nike foams will use, also carrying this idea through to the Crater Foam. Using a blend of Nike foam and a percentage of Nike Grind Rubber equals a reduction in virgin materials adding to this lower carbon footprint. This Ground Rubber also adds a special effect within the outsole creating an almost speckle effect.
With this latest collection, it brings attention to Nike’s designers who are exploring these new and inventive ways, and further exploring their own innovations and ways in which they can reuse the pieces that would normally be scrapped and therefore focussing on how things are made, used and reused.
To celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Reebok Club C, the brand have worked on producing an OG pair of the tennis classic.

A similar silhouette with a difference, the 700 MNVN takes the traditional 700 mould and strips it back to its bare bones. With a change in materials, the upper has been reconstructed with a lightweight polyester featuring zero sewn overlays, creating a more simplistic silhouette.
With this new style, brings the 700 into a more performance style. The traditional lacing has been removed and instead sits a bungee lace system allowing for an easier on and off wear.
Having been known for its high comfort levels since its introduction, the 700 MNVN retains its full-length boost midsole for ultimate underfoot cushioning whilst the new breathable upper makes this the perfect daily.

The Air Jordan I OG High has long been heralded as one of the most iconic basketball shoes ever since its release in 1985. Over the years, the AJI OG High has been a silhouette that has been subjected to a host of iterations whether changes in colourways, materials or technology.
The model was designed in 1984, released in ’85, and due to Michael Jordan’s foot injury in ’86 it ran through ’87. In 2020, the popular model has already kicked off the year with the satin version but the next release on the cards runs a little closer to home.
The Air Jordan I OG High ’85’ is the first AJI to feature its original cut/shape also with classic hues and reworked colour-blocking. This heritage-inspired makeup begins with a base of black leather, complemented by overlays of University Red. A crispy white midsole adds a clean touch to the time-honoured style. Long-time sneaker lovers will be happy to know that this drop arrives with retro packaging—including a drawstring bag marking each of 23,000 pairs made and an OG hang tag depicting MJ above the Chicago skyline.

After Nikes revival of the Nike Viotech late 2019, they’ve now delved back into the Dunk archive and pulled out the rare and elusive Dunk Low ‘Plum’.
Back in 2001, Nike had a co.jp initiative in Japan which allowed for consumers to access colourways that were exclusive to that specific region. During this time a pack known as the ‘Ugly Ducking’ pack was launched and it is here where we find the OG ‘Plum’ Dunk.
Since then, the Dunk Low ‘Plum’ has been kept as part of Nikes archives and has since become one of the most celebrated of the Dunks colour ways. Although a High-top SB iteration was created back in 2011, this is the first time the low has come back to life since its ’01 debut.
Sticking to the OG, this latest iteration has been constructed in a rich premium suede with the distinct mixture of plum purples and Barn Red dressed across it’s upper.
