Nigo x Nike Air Force 3 Low
Release Date: December 19
Editor's Notes: Nigo and Nike continue to bring the Air Force 3 Low into the spotlight with this new iteration. The sneaker features a textile and cowhide leather mix throughout the upper with hairy accents and a plush lining.
atmos x New Balance 1906DAR
Release Date: December 20
Editor's Notes: It's the end of the year and atmos has been busy with two collaborative drops this week, the first utilizing New Balance's 1906 silhouette. Taking inspiration from the ocean with a 'Deep Sea' colorway, the pair is made with suede overlays in line with New Balance's Refined Future detailing.
Travis Scott x Nike Air Jordan 1 Low SP
Release Date: December 21
Editor's Notes: It's been five years since Travis Scott and Nike first took sneakerheads by storm with the collaborative Air Jordan 1 model bearing a reversed Swoosh logo and the duo shows no sign of slowing down. Their latest drop arrives in a mocha and velvet brown hue that's perfect for the winter months.
Fragment x Nike Air Zoom Spiridon
Release Date: Out Now
Editor's Notes: Leave it to Fragment to make Nike's Air Zoom Spiridon even better with minimal branding. The duo teams up for a 2-piece drop featuring co-branded logos, but since we can only choose one pair, this stealthy iteration is as good as it gets.
The Broken Arm x Salomon XA-Jungle
Release Date: December 19
Editor's Notes: After revamping Salomon's RX-Travel 6.0, XT-Quest 2, XA-Alpine, and various other silhouettes, The Broken Arm and Salomon have teamed up for a new version of the trail-ready XA-Jungle.
atmos x ASICS GT-2160 "TAPETUM"
Release Date: December 19
Editor's Notes: The Japanese boutique atmos comes through with its second drop of the week, this time adding its aesthetics to the GT-2160. The sneaker is detailed in a clean black and chrome colorway with reflective accents that draw inspiration from animal retinas.
