The peak of the holiday season is fast-approaching, and brands are capitalizing on the time of year to confirm and tease new product.
As has become customary, handfuls of Air Jordan product has been previewed ahead of December’s shopping events. Away from the footwear, however, the Jumpman family announced the signings of two new members: Kiki Rice and Javon Walton. Both figures are still teenagers, suggesting Michael Jordan’s eponymous brand views them as big bold bets for its future.
PUMA, adidas and ASICS all previewed upcoming solo and joint efforts, with Pokémon joining the wild cat-inspired brand in bringing anime to sneaker form. Pikachu, Squirtle, Charmander and Bulbasaur-related sneakers might not be for everyone, but countless netizens took to social media to express their fandom for the unexpected collaboration. Ronnie Fieg and ASICS also saw sizable approval of their latest collaboration, which sees the Queens-native help revive a long-forgotten basketball design from 1988 in colorways rooted in New York Knicks heritage. The Three Stripes saw more backlash than praise over the last week, partly because of Ye’s audience, but also due to the release of its collection with Balenciaga.
