Virgil Abloh‘s tragic and unexpected passing in late 2021 has left a gaping hole in the world of fashion and the surrounding culture. But the man who Favnikeoutlet was responsible for a number of widespread trends in footwear, clothing, and general aesthetic left behind a wealth of resources, from a wide assortment of footwear designs with Nike to step-by-step guides on how to build your own brand. While Nike has yet to make any sort of announcement regarding the future of Off-White Nike footwear releases, we’re learning that the two Off White Nike Blazer Lows that surfaced in 2021 could release on April 8th, 2022 on SNKRS. Revealed in a black colorway, off-set with a neon green heel unit and lacing, and a white colorway, dotted with reds and yellow, Virgil Abloh’s Off-White Blazers feature the familiar wide lacing, large circular holes on the upper, the signature Helvetica text, and a reformed heel unit that many have compared to the Terra Humara.
When it was revealed months prior, the Air Jordan 1 Low Elevate — which was previously believed to be called the LV8D — relied heavily on familiar colorways, Air Jordan 4 Red Thunder such as the “Bred” and “Wolf Grey.” But for its newest set of releases, the silhouette is slowly introducing more non-original make-ups, such as this upcoming yellow-on-grey option. The sole, as is typical of the model, proffers a platform-sized midsole that’s stabilized by an equally tall outsole. Highlighted in a bright yellow, the latter matches the leather panels across the upper as well as the lining and laces adjacent. A neutral grey, then, dresses underneath, coloring in the toe box, mid-panel, and tongue. As for the branding itself, the Jumpman has taken a more minimal approach, as they’ve only stamped the shoe’s heel with the Wings logo’s outline.
Before signing a massive deal with the Clippers and hitting clutch shots for the Toronto Raptors, Kawhi Leonard and his legend of the Klaw was bred in San Antonio. Under the tutelage of Gregg Popovich and learning from all-time legends such as Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, and Manu Ginobili, Kawhi Leonard molded himself into the one of the 75 greatest players in NBA history by the age of 30. As the marquee athlete in the New Balance Hoops roster, Kawhi is Keen Shoes For Women also enjoying that rare distinction of signature athlete, and this upcoming colorway of the KAWHI 2 ostensibly recalls his earliest years in the league. Dubbed the “Blur” colorway, this New Balance KAWHI 2 features a simple and stoic white/black colorway, broken up only by the blips and waves seen at the mid-foot window. A gradient from a light ashy grey to a black suggests a blurry effect indeed, feeding to the official concept behind this rather bland colorway. Still, KAWHI 2s are among the top picks for hoopers, so those we prefer the charming drab of New Balance will have no problem with this colorway.
