FRESH KICKS: Nike Air Max 2015 "Dos Angeles"/ BEAUTY & YOUTH x Reebok Classic Ex-O-Fit Hi "Suede"/ Nike Roshe NM Flyknit Premium Black/Black/ adidas Originals Stan Smith Mid/ Nike Air Max 95 "Platinum" Pack
There are two sides to every story, and with that in mind Nike has officially unveiled the ‘Dos Angeles’ running collection; one which explores this concept through dualist color-schemes. The Air Max 2015s are made of a predominantly black welded mesh, seamlessly spliced with a white mesh heel that offers a stark visual juxtaposition. The complete “Dos Angeles” range also includes a Nike Air Zoom Pegasus 32, Nike Free 5.0, and Nike Air Zoom Wildhorse 3 silhouette as well as two graphic T-shirts. The full collection can be viewed on Nike’s official site now.
For its newest collaboration, Reebok Classic taps Japanese mainstay BEAUTY & YOUTH for a revisiting of the Ex-O-Fit Hi silhouette that celebrates fine texture and detail. Our first look shows the hi-top sneaker being offered in two elegant, tonal colorways: light gray and khaki with matching laces and ankle strap, and exhibiting a plush leather and suede upper with a perforated toe box, a white EVA foam midsole, and a high abrasion rubber outsole. The tongue patch and heel tab hold subtle Reebok branding while the insole is co-branded with Reebok and BEAUTY & YOUTH logos. The Ex-O-Fit prototype was created by Reebok Classic in 1987 and rarely sees collaborations nowadays. Watch out for more upcoming news on this special collaboration.
The Roshe NM Flyknit PRM silhouette is back as Nike brings us a sleek Black/Black-Dark-Grey-White colorway for the unique lightweight runner. This iteration adopts the usual Flyknit upper with a solid black overlay with a subtle black Swoosh logo, black laces, black heel tab, a crisp white outsole, and 3D-moulded heel counter. You can purchase the Nike Roshe NM Flyknit PRM Black/Black now from Sneaker Politics for $130 USD.
adidas Originals has crafted a brand new mid-top take on the iconic Stan Smith for the upcoming fall/winter season. Perfect for the unpredictable weather the upcoming season brings, the design retains the classic look of the original and even adopts an OG colorway, coupling smooth white leather with a green heel tab, matching tongue branding, and an off-white rubber sole unit. Stan fans can find the mid-top now at retailers like Tokyo’s atmos.
Platinum, brilliant and nearly incapable of oxidizing, has long been the celebratory gift given to commemorate a 20th wedding anniversary. With that in mind, Nike Sportswear has taken cues from the metallic elements to customize a duo of takes on the two-decades-old Air Max 95. While the men’s version adopts an all-over motif as a nod to platinum jewelry, the women’s version of the design sports a more varied look as it takes cues from the various textures and finishes of raw platinum.
The two anniversary releases will be available at select NSW retailers beginning August 13 before making their way to North America September 3.
