After a long awaited 6 years since last stocked, the Air Safari ‘OG’, has lands on Footpatrol on 19/07. Having first launched in 1987 the Air Safari is a shoe that comes with notability and a lot of heritage that is not to be overlooked. This resurgence is nostalgic for a variety of reasons, dropping in the original colourway and complete with iconic Safari print and hidden air cushioning are to name a few.
Not to be missed, available on Footpatrol 19/07 online and in-store.

Birthed out of the necessity for a multifunctional shoe that breathed individual style and function. Hatfield’s Nike Air Trainer 1 was one that satisfied his own imagination – curating a sneaker that would serve as inaugural cross-trainer at the gym. Hallmarked for its extroverted colour iterations, stabilised lateral outrigger and a lockdown feel, occupying a retail space between the quintessential b-ball fit and runner – truly unmistakable and rebellious in nature solidifying its cult-like status amongst many different people. From all kinds of crafts, interests and walks of life – building a unique synergy between gym goers, tennis court enthusiasts, b-ball players and runners.
Over the years, the Nike Air Trainer has boasted a lengthy roster of eclectic collabs. I am sure you’ll remember the legendary and hi-vis accented ‘112’ pack with DJ Clark Kent, the Fragment open/chino iteration to the early HUF ‘Gold Digger’ collab – it is a trainer that never fails to make a stylistic impression.
The latest Nike Air Trainer gets the ‘Light Smoke Grey/ Honeydew’ upgrade. Opting for a synthetic leather upper coated in a mixed tonal hue of grey and blues, while accents of ‘Honeydew’ complements the collar, Swoosh branding and midsole. Airy mesh underlays on the sidewalls and perforations on the toe vamp keeps things breathable paired with iridescent detailing throughout.
A signature midfoot strap is situated across the lace chamber – ensuring a snug and customisable fit. What’s more, a plush insole unit delivers unrivalled cushioning and a lateral outrigger enhances performance. Underfoot, the rubber outsole features multi-directional tread – the durable must-have this season.
The Nike Air Trainer 1 ‘Honeydew’ is now available to shop in-store and online!
For their latest release dubbed the ‘Fast Pack’, the Nike Air Zoom Alphafly NEXT% is one of those products that does exactly what it says on the tin… Consisting of a number of their top runners, the Alphafly is by far their most elite option.
The recipe is simple, ultra cushion, reactive and of course lightweight. How did they achieve it? Starting at the top, the Atomknit is a new innovation from Nike that’s moved on from the traditional Flyknit and brings a tad more sturdiness to the upper. Underneath continues with the innovations by taking the Air Zoom Vaporfly NEXT% and upping the ante. The stack height is larger with even more ZoomX foam, a carbon plate still sits built within the midsole for that ultra responsiveness whilst not stopping their, Nike call upon their history with Air by incorporating two Air Pods under the forefoot. This all adds up to become a shoe that loves taking on personal bests!
To finish things off, the Alphafly now comes in a burst of Hyper Violet which with its black staggered outsole against the white ZoomX foam, it definitely lives up to its name ‘Fast pack’.

Another one of Nike’s silhouettes that first came to light on the courts way back in 1973, the Blazer very quickly became a go to lifestyle choice with its simplicity and easy to wear nature and was a staple within street culture and even skateboarding.
Fast forwarding to 2022 and the Blazer has seen a vast amounts of attention given to it with a host of inline disguises and has often been a go to silhouette for collaborators. For 2022 alone, we’ve seen the likes of sacai and ACRONYM bring their ideas to the table and now, we see Off White.
Often is the way with Virgil Abloh’s collaborations, this Blazer Low takes inspiration from many sources from within Nikes archive that looks at many sports including basketball, skateboarding and trail running that brings with it a ultra playful nature to the collaboration. The most eye-catching of those details is the extended TPU heel piece that’s placed on top of the Blazers midsole which draws inspiration from the Terra Humara’s Classic design.
Not to forget this being an Off White collaboration, you can be sure to find signature detailing such as dual lacing, exposed foam tongue and the punched-out holes that we saw originally covered up on the Air Jordan V.

As all of us have come to know, 3.26 is a day etched within the sneaker calendar. For this years Air Max Day, we co-hosted a community filled event over at Nike HQ in London. As part of the ‘Give Fresh Air’ campaign, we took part in panel talks as well as watching a live game show that was taking place with teams from around Europe including a very own London team, Amsterdam and Berlin. … A date that is now etched within the sneaker community, of course, it means its Air Max Day!
With a whole host of Air Max’s on feet throughout the event, it was great to see the variation and love for this historic, iconic sneaker whilst also opening up the stage to those within the community to share their voice!

A popular collaborator within the Nike line up, Union LA are back once again with Nike to take on the ever popular, Dunk Low.
Eye-catching visually thanks to the reimagined upper, the usual leather upper have been stripped back and in its place they’ve opted for a durable ripstop with a synthetic grid pattern that’s finished in a s mash up of Purple and Yellow that can only make us think of the iconic colours of the Lakers.

A few of you may remember, we recently paid a visit to father and daughter duo Chirs Bramble and Freya Bramble-Carter in celebration of Nike’s Air Force 1 High Sculpt. To take this celebration further, we invited a handful of friends and family down to test their on skills on the pottery wheel.
Whether it’s within the realms of footwear design, architecture or even painting, everything starts with and idea within the mind so we challenged those who attended to get creating much like the Air Force 1 Sculpt. Effortlessly sculpted, Nike have created a soft approach to Air Force 1 High with the removal of the ankle strap and the tumbled leathers.

3.26… A date that is now etched within the sneaker community, of course, it means its Air Max Day!
Each year that passes, it seems that the Air Max franchise grows from strength to strength. Whether that’s Nike looking back at the history of certain silhouettes, revisiting famed colour ways or exploring new and exciting ways of utilising Air like when they launched the ultra-futuristic Air Vapormax.
To celebrate this year’s Air Max Day, not only are we celebrating by co-hosting the Give Fresh Air: The Game Show, but we also caught up with four individuals within the sneaker scene that live and breathe Air. Whilst catching up with each person, we challenged them with bringing down their favourite Air Max within their collection…
Take a closer look at each person’s pick below… who are you siding with?
Ikechi Amaechi / @kech_kicks
From her eclectic partnership with Sheaker Mag to creating Black Sneaker Chic – a platform that is dedicated to the evolving sneaker savvy female audience, Ikechi Amaechi’s enthusiasm and passion for the sneaker culture never fails to impress. A highly coveted favourite for Ikechi is certainly the Air Max 98’s ‘Gundam’ iteration – it’s bold, colourful and invigorating, mirroring a true reflection of Ikechi’s personality.
Skreech / @papaskreech1
Sneaker enthusiast and founder of ‘Mini Kicks’, Skreech has always found ways to integrate his love for sneaker culture into a wider community. A doting Arsenal fan, Skreech’s must-have pair is the Air Max 1, securing 5 pairs of the iconic silhouette. With a standalone favourite being the ‘Varsity Red’ OG – representing his devotion to the Gunners.
Sam Le Roy / @lleumass
The man behind the ingenious Hart Copy, Sam Le Roy love for sneakers has continued to inspire the masses with his social writing platform. With the Jeff Staple Air Max 90 ‘Navigation Pack’ being his treasured favourite, with its block-by-block map of NYC. The 2004 gem was the first pack Nike ever dropped on a wider commercial release with laser etching.
Jules / @crown_juelzz
South London born photographer and co-founder of Sneaker Sisterhood, Jules is a certified gem in the sneaker industry. Representing status and her inner-city London identity Jules would say that her favourite of Air Max is certainly the Air Max 95 ‘Neon’ colourway – a staple pair within the UK and arguably too good to be worn.
