Up-There x ASICS Gel-Terrain
Release Date: July 6
Editor's Notes: Melbourne-based boutique Up-There reimagines ASICS' trail-ready sneaker, the Gel-Terrain. Decorated in bright, eye-catching hues, the sneaker arrives with a toggle-lace closure and a pair of carabiners that are sure to come in handy.
Nike Air Max Dn SE
Release Date: Out Now
Editor's Notes: Though the Air Max DN is only a few months old, it's already getting the retro colorway treatment usually reserved for Nike's most prized silhouettes.
This special edition harkens back to a color palette from 1998, swapping yellow accents for bright gold hues on the air bubbles in the heel.
Opium x Nike Air Jordan Air Ship
Release Date: July 7
Editor's Notes: Opium Paris has been a cultural meeting point for the last 23 years, so it's only right the retailer links up with Nike for a special release.
This new women's iteration of the Air Ship is loaded with details, ranging from two-tone embroidery and suede overlays to debossed logos and retro patterns at the heel.
PUMA x La Francé Amour
Release Date: July 5
Editor's Notes: Basketball players having clothing brands isn't anything new, but LaMelo Ball isn't your average NBA player.
The latest drop from his La Francé imprint powered by PUMA follows the same oversized lineage as Osiris and Lanvin but features unique mesh paneling along the upper.
adidas Stan Smith Casual Shoe
Release Date: July 5
Editor's Notes: With Wimbledon 2024 in full swing, adidas is serving up an even more casual version of its storied Stan Smith.
The updated silhouette arrives detailed with a tumbled leather upper and new sole while maintaining the perforated 3-stripes along the lateral sides.
Nike Cortez "Oregon"
Release Date: Out Now
Editor's Notes: Nike taps back into its Oregon roots with this special release of its Cortez model.
This pair pays homage to Nike co-founder (and designer of the Nike Cortez) Bill Bowerman's coaching tenure at the University of Oregon state and features vintage logos on the tongue, insole, and heel.
