FRESH KICKS 2

Founded in 1927, Warrior or “Hui Li” as it is known in China, had its beginnings crafting sports shoes for Chinese athletes and would go on to become a household name in the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s, as a working class brand. But today, Warrior stands as a cultural icon, loved by alternative youth in Shanghai and Beijing. Recently, Warrior went through a full-scale rebranding — relaunching its most iconic footwear under the name “WOS33,” which stands for “Warrior Ordinary Streetwear 33″ (33 is an auspicious number in Chinese culture). The WOS33 model features a lightweight canvas upper accented by simple leather panel color-ups and painted metal eyelets. While a retro basketball sole unit, traditional Chinese wood pattern decorated foxing tape and original tag round up the design of the shoe. Retailing at €70 EUR (approximately $85 USD), the WOS33 Warrior sneakers are available now via WOS33′s official website.

After debuting the Ayero model a month ago in a “Triple Black” colorway, Y-3 designer Yohji Yamamoto and adidas are bringing forth the model in a new “White/Core Black” set. This time around, the sneaker sees both neutral tones used for the mesh upper. This is paired with leather overlays on each side of the shoe which sports Yamamoto’s name along the side and the Y-3 branding on the heel wrap.
You can cop the “White/Cure Black” colorway of the Y-3 Ayero now in select sizes through various retailers like Feature for $350 USD.


After putting out a handful of collaborative models of the Nike SB Blazer Low, the brand is returning the sneaker to its roots with two clean and classic colorways. With both looks rocking white for the upper, the sneaker sports its original leather material as opposed to suede and other textures we’ve seen as of late. This clean finish is complemented by the use of color for the stitched on Swoosh logo along the sides as well as on the heel tab and tongue patch. With both a darker “Obsidian” and a bright “Mineral Gold” color used for the details, the entire upper sits atop a textured rubber outsole.
Both new colorways of the Nike SB Blazer Low are set to hit the shelves of select Nike retailers later this season for $75 USD. While you’re waiting on these, be sure to take a look at what else Nike has in store with the “Black Leather” triple pack for the Air Force 1 Mid.

Following the debut of a “Triple White” colorway earlier this month, NikeLab is doubling down on the Zoom Fly SP model with the unveiling of a black and white colorway. Much like the previous iteration, the sneaker’s mostly white body is woven together using a carbon-enforced nylon material. This allows for a flexible feel all while remaining breathable and providing structure and stability for your foot. The lightweight upper is set up with a Lunarlon foam midsole for extra comfort and a white rubber outsole with black details featured along the side.
You can grab a pair of the white and black Zoom Fly SP from NikeLab END. on September 18 for $160 USD. Keep it locked here for all of the latest Nike footwear news.
