Billie Eilish has followed up on her previous Nike collaborations with yet another new shoe. Expected sometime next year, the singer has tinkered with the Air Force 1 High‘07 to create her own version of the classic sneaker.
The AF1 continues the monotonal pattern of Eilish’s previous Nike releases, such as her takes on the Air Jordan 15 and Air Jordan 1 KO. A neutral light brown, the “Mushroom” color is featured throughout the shoe’s suede finish, sole and strap details.
Though the core design of the AF1 remains the same, the sneaker now has five velcro straps spanning from the toe to the ankle.
Underneath the sole is a secret message: “It’s hard to stop it once it starts.” The text is also printed on the shoebox.
No official release date has been revealed for the Billie Eilish x Nike Air Force 1 High as of yet but fans can likely plan to see it in-store and online come early 2022.
Fresh off his Miami Art Basel presentation of reimagined Rimowa luggage pieces, venture capitalist and Boxed Water founder Benjamin Edgar shares a new range of merch for his 12345 line.
Established in 2009 and touted as “an object company,” Edgar’s latest drop includes exclusive colorways that he says are, “confusingly familiar,” but not yet seen before, “an abstraction of an abstraction.” New hooded sweatshirts in blue and black are logo-laden with a front-to-back 12345 white insignia, the “cube & hand” T-shirt is white with a digitized violet graphic, and the classic 12345 tee is presented in a short-sleeve black colorway; each making a great pairing with the brand’s buzzworthy “500 Jeans.”
As a 2018 HYPETALKS alum, Edgar previously dropped a few gems on becoming familiar with one’s goals and achieving success, asking the question, “How bad do you want whatever you’re working on to work?!” Further back in September 2020, Edgar released a collaborative boot with upstart footwear brand Season Three and spoke about the release through an exclusive interview with HYPEBEAST.
Arriving in time for the cold weather season, Edgar’s updated 12345 colorways are available at benjaminedgar.com.
The iconic Kobe Bryant adidas (XETRA:ADS.DE +0.55%) EQT Elevation sneaker is reportedly making a comeback. Renamed the adidas Crazy 97 EQT, the sneaker brand is bringing back the same sneakers that Bryant wore during his unforgettable 1997 NBA Dunk Contest.
With Nike announcing that it will no longer be producing anymore of the Kobe silhouettes, adidas is seizing the opportunity to tap into the Mamba nostalgia surrounded by this iteration, famously worn by Bryant during the All-Star Weekend in Cleveland. The 1997 NBA Slam Dunk Contest saw Bryant claim the title as a then-18-year-old rookie. Bryant went up against Ray Allen, Michael Finley and Cleveland’s own Bob Sura for the title. The pair’s colorway pays perfect homage to the Los Angeles Lakers team colors, dressed in purple and featuring a yellow emblem on the heel. The upper also features three white stripes, further cementing that it is indeed an adidas shoe.
There is currently no official release date regarding the adidas Crazy 97 EQT but it is expected to arrive in 2022.

The new Patek Philippe Tiffany Blue Nautilus 5711 has been spotted in the wild and on the wrist of none other than Jay-Z himself. Jay-Z could have even been the buyer of the one sold at Phillips for $6.5 million USD, but as an official Tiffany & Co. ambassador, he most likely pulled some strings in getting his for retail. The watch was recently spotted while Jay-Z was promoting Netflix’s The Harder They Fall, a movie in which he (Shawn Carter) has a production credit in.
Alex Todd managed to share a clear shot of Hov flexing the colorful watch next to director Jeymes Samuel. Check the watch on his wrist below.
After an incredible record-breaking moment that saw Steph Curry surpass Ray Allenas the all-time NBA three-point shooter, the Golden State Warrior shared his successes with his longtime teammates.
Evidently thrilled with his accomplishments, he celebrated the moment with Draymond Green and Andre Iguodala by gifting his two teammates each with a new custom engraved Rolex. The moment was captured by Dominique Collins of ESPNafter the history-making game at Madison Square Garden. While it is unsure how much the watches cost or exactly which model Curry gifted to his teammates, it is expected to be upwards of thousands of dollars.
Klay Thompson who is currently playing with the Santa Cruz Warriors was unable to attend the game in New York City. According to Collins, Curry has not forgotten Thompson in his act of gratitude and is confirmed to also be receiving one. Curry gifted his three longtime team members with the extravagant gift as a way to thank them for helping him achieve this feat over the years. The act only cements that Curry understands that he would not be where he is in the league without them.
Take a look at the moment Curry gifted Green and Iguodala the engraved Rolexes.
