SummaryThe JiyongKim x PUMA VS1 collaboration rejects the concept of factory-fresh perfectionEvery pair features unique tonal variations achieved through a signature sun-bleaching technique, ensuring that no two sneakers are identical due to their natural exposure to the elementsThe design emphasizes a deliberately unfinished aesthetic through frayed fabric edges and exposed stitchingThe latest collaboration between JiyongKim and PUMA challenges the traditional “factory fresh” sneaker aesthetic, opting instead for a narrative of organic evolution and decay. By utilizing the VS1—a silhouette typically rooted in high-performance athletics—JiyongKim strips away the sterile precision of mass production to reveal something raw and deeply human. This partnership recontextualizes the sneaker as a canvas for craft and time, resulting in a design that feels less like a product and more like a relic.At the heart of the collection is JiyongKim’s signature sun-bleaching technique. Rather than using chemical dyes to achieve uniformity, the fabric uppers are exposed to the elements, allowing natural sunlight to dictate the final pigment. This process ensures that every pair possesses a distinct tonal variation, rendering each sneaker a unique piece of wearable art. Complementing this weathered finish are frayed edges and exposed stitching, which reinforce the “deliberately unfinished” philosophy that defines JiyongKim’s oeuvre.The JiyongKim x PUMA VS1 sits at the precarious intersection of sport and artisanal heritage. It interrogates the life cycle of footwear, celebrating the “wear over time” that usually signals the end of a shoe’s relevance. By highlighting these imperfections, the collaboration elevates the VS1 into a soulful expression of permanence. The highly anticipated capsule is scheduled for a regional release on February 28, with availability strictly limited to Korea, China, and Japan. View this post on Instagram A post shared by HYPEBEAST (@hypebeast)Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

SummaryThe Dior Roadie lace-up boot evolved into a central pillar of the Fall/Winter 2026 collection, moving beyond its driving shoe origins to become a versatile symbol of Jonathan Anderson’s vision for the houseThe latest iterations showcase a sophisticated textural pivot, utilizing high-quality materials such as traditional Donegal tweeds and polished calfskinThe collection introduces an expansive color palette including forest green, midnight blue, and regal red, all anchored by a signature seamless tubular sole that offers modern flexibility and a nonchalant silhouetteFor the Fall/Winter 2026 menswear season, Jonathan Anderson’s tenure at Dior reaches a fever pitch of subversion and technical mastery. Central to this season’s footwear narrative is the Dior Roadie, a lace-up boot that first made waves during the Spring/Summer 2026 debut and has now evolved into a cornerstone of the house’s new visual identity.While the silhouette’s origin lies in the sleek, ergonomic lines of a vintage driving shoe, the FW26 iterations lean into the “new aristocracy” theme of the collection. Moving away from the initial suede calfskin, the latest runway revealed a sophisticated textural pivot. The Roadie has been reimagined in rich Donegal tweeds and polished calfskin, creating a poetic collision between rugged country heritage and Parisian couture precision.The palette for the season is as diverse as the “aristo-youth” characters Anderson sent down the runway, featuring deep forest greens, earthy browns, midnight blues, and a striking, regal red. Each pair is anchored by the signature seamless tubular sole—a technical marvel that provides a “nonchalant” flexibility against the structured, often shrunken tailoring of the garments. The Dior Roadie remains the ultimate symbol of Anderson’s Dior — a shoe that feels both historical and futuristic, grounded in Italian craftsmanship but driven by a restless, modern energy. View this post on Instagram A post shared by HYPEBEAST (@hypebeast)Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

Name: Nike LeBron 23 “Shut Up And Dribble”Colorway: Cool Grey/BlackSKU: IH1513-002MSRP: $210 USDRelease Date: February 6Where to Buy: NikeSome beefs fade away, but LeBron James prefers to eternalize his through his signature LeBron 23. It has been eight years since Fox News host Laura Ingraham dismissed the NBA superstar as a “dumb jock,” advising him to “shut up and dribble.” Now, circling back to the “More Than An Athlete” campaign launched after the 2018 controversy, Nike and James are turning the soundbite into a statement with the upcoming Nike LeBron 23 “Shut Up And Dribble”Arriving in a mostly grey palette, the upper adopts an industrial aesthetic, utilizing a textured construction with a steel grate pattern across the crown. The center of the design lives on the heel, featuring the statement “Still Talking” — with specific letters crossed out to reveal the hidden message: “Still King.”Underfoot, semi-translucent blue outsoles ground the design, offering an icy counterpoint to the upper’s industrial grit. Beyond the commentary, the colorway reportedly nods to LeBron’s 2018 All-Star MVP performance, when he dominated the court in a black-and-white jersey.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

Name: Nike Air Max Muse “Valentine’s Day”Colorway: Sandstone Pink/Bright Burgundy Red/Sail-Peony RedSKU: IQ1152-666MSRP: $170 USDRelease Date: February 2026Where to Buy: NikeNike’s plans in celebrating the season of love broaden with a new and expressive Air Max Muse colorway. Embracing its theme, this “Valentine’s Day” edition arrives with a striking interplay of materials that unmistakably captures the spirit of the holiday.The design anchors soft pink mesh underlays with crisp white leather overlays against a deep red midsole, creating a high-contrast palette that stands out in the brand’s seasonal lineup. A plush white heart is embossed prominently on the velvety tongue, topped with a keyhole detail to form a heart-shaped padlock look. Metallic pink Swooshes sharpen the side profile to add a technical edge, while contrasting blue script branding on the heel provides a necessary cool-toned break, preventing the aesthetic from drifting too far into sweetness.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

Earlier this week, Heikki Salonen was named the first creative director of Salomon, following a 12-year tenure at MM6 Maison Margiela. He is joined by a familiar collaborator in Laura Herbst, who steps into the role of studio director after previous stints at MM6 Maison Margiela and Céline. For Salomon, a brand rooted in performance since its founding in the 1940s, some wondered whether the appointments signaled a shift in focus for the French label. Its emergence as a go-to for fashion-conscious consumers is well documented. From its introduction on the runway at Boris Bidjan Saberi’s Spring/Summer 2017 “Post Humanism” show to becoming a defining footwear brand for the gorpcore movement at the turn of the decade, Salomon has built two distinct audiences: those driven by performance and those drawn to fashion.From the outside, the move could read as a pivot. From the inside, it’s about consolidation. Our conversation with Salonen and the Salomon team below clarifies that this is not a move in a new direction, but a unification that doubles down on delivering performance across everything the brand presents.With Heikki’s appointment, should we expect a push toward entirely new Salomon footwear models, or a deeper exploration of the brand’s archives?Heikki isn’t here to choose between innovation and heritage — he’s here to reconnect them through performance credibility. You should expect new product expressions driven by sport and usage, alongside selective reinterpretations of iconic franchises when they still solve a real need today. The filter is simple: function first, athlete/usage validation, and modern relevance.Given his background at MM6, how does Heikki envision the evolution of the MM6 × Salomon partnership?The MM6 x Salomon partnership remains a focused collaboration with its own creative lane and governance. Heikki’s appointment doesn’t change the agreement or the ambition currently in place — the collaboration continues as planned, rooted in mutual respect and a shared interest in pushing design language. More broadly, we’ll keep exploring partnerships that challenge our perspective, while staying true to Salomon’s performance DNA.How does Salomon plan to balance performance DNA with lifestyle demand?Performance is not one pillar among others — it’s the source. Our approach is not to dilute performance, but to translate it into modern mountain sports lifestyle. We start from sport, terrain, and usage; then we evolve that into design, culture, and everyday relevance, never the other way around. When the product is truly credible in the mountains, people naturally bring it into the city.Beyond product, how does Heikki imagine elevating the Salomon brand experience?Heikki’s scope goes beyond designing products, it’s about strengthening the total Salomon experience. That means aligning product design, retail expression, campaigns, and activations around one clear creative vision of modern mountain sports culture. The goal is consistency: when someone meets Salomon, through an athlete, a store, a collaboration, or a campaign, it should feel like the same brand, with the same performance credibility. View this post on Instagram A post shared by HYPEBEAST Kicks (@hypebeastkicks)Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

Name: Nike Mind 001 “Mineral Slate”Colorway: Mineral Slate/Light Pumice-Hyper Crimson-Metallic PlatinumSKU: HQ4307-300MSRP: $95 USDRelease Date: April 1Where to Buy: NikeBuilding on the momentum of the Nike Mind 001 debut earlier this month, Nike is expanding the lineup for spring with a new “Mineral Slate” colorway. This latest iteration shifts the model away from previous high-energy releases toward a calmer, more understated palette.The silhouette features a muted green upper that feels intentional, echoing wellness culture and recovery-focused design. As with previous releases, the sculpted sole remains the defining feature; its 22 protruding foam nodes are engineered to encourage deliberate pacing while delivering a gentle, massage-like sensation with every movement. The result is a footwear experience that makes every step feel purposeful and meditative. While the primary colorway is subdued, the signature orange accents on the nodes remain, providing a striking contrast that adds character to the design. Look for the pair to arrive in April.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

Name: JiyongKim x PUMA VS1SKU: TBCRelease Date: February 28At Paris Fashion Week, JiyongKim provided the first look at its soon-to-release sneaker collaboration with PUMA. Revealed in two colorways, the JiyongKim x PUMA VS1 silhouette reveals a raw, artisanal reworking of the performance silhouette, stripped back and rebuilt through a hands‑on process.Sunbleached fabric uppers lend each pair a unique tone, while frayed edges and exposed stitching emphasize a deliberately unfinished aesthetic. The patchwork‑like construction across the quarters and toe box creates a tactile, timeworn effect, complemented by tonal laces and understated co‑branding on the tongue. A subtly weathered midsole and durable outsole maintain PUMA’s athletic foundation, but the overall finish positions the sneaker as a hybrid between sport and craft, designed to feel lived‑in rather than factory fresh.Unlike traditional “clean” collaborations that emphasize pristine finishes, the VS1 focuses on the beauty of wear over time and the unique character of sun-exposure. Compared to PUMA’s more standard performance-led releases, this “non-factory fresh” approach offers a rugged, organic alternative that resonates with the growing trend of deconstructed luxury. The limited capsule is scheduled to release on February 28, 2026, exclusively across Korea, China and Japan.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

Name: Stranger Things x Converse All Star Aged 87 PackMSRP: ¥16,500 – ¥25,300 JPY (approx. $100 – $160 USD)Release Date: Available NowWhere to Buy: ConverseFollowing the initial teaser earlier this month, the second Stranger Things x Converse collaboration has arrived, introducing the All Star Aged 87 Pack. To celebrate the series’ final chapter, the pack offers a nostalgic, distressed tribute to the show’s legacy. Each pair utilizes the vintage-finished All Star Aged silhouette, specifically treated to look as though it has been worn since the story’s 1987 setting.The collection is led by a design honoring the “Hellfire Club,” the Dungeons & Dragons circle featuring Mike and Dustin. Available in bleached black and natural colors, the canvas is covered in hand-drawn illustrations that mirror the sketches of the club’s members. These graphics extend from the upper to the insole, complemented by spare printed white cotton laces that enhance the DIY aesthetic.For a more rugged, rock-inspired look, a second model pays homage to the show’s breakout leader, Eddie Munson. Drawing directly from Eddie’s signature leather and denim jacket, this pair features a striking material combination and a center-zip specification. The “Hellfire Club” logo is prominently printed on the tongue, while the removable zip component allows you to swap in the included black laces for a more traditional look.Rounding out the pack is a conceptual take on “The Upside Down.” This silhouette utilizes cracked leather that reveals a sinister red base beneath a black surface. In a literal nod to the alternate dimension, both the ankle patch and heel label are attached upside down. The “Missing” poster text from Will’s disappearance is printed on the toe cap, while the insole features a detailed map of Hawkins, completing this immersive 1980s tribute.
