Name: Nike Air Max 95 Total 90 “Metallic Gold”Colorway: Metallic GoldSKU: IV2872-707MSRP: $200 USDRelease Date: Summer 2026Where to Buy: NikeNike’s ongoing celebration of its early-2000s football archive is officially striking gold. Continuing its successful series that merges the iconic Air Max 95 with the legendary Total 90 boot lineage, the Swoosh has unveiled the boldest iteration yet: the Nike Air Max 95 Total 90 “Metallic Gold.” Treating the crossover concept as a full-fledged collection rather than a one-off experiment, this upcoming release perfectly bridges the gap between classic running DNA and nostalgic pitch-ready aesthetics.Making an immediate statement, the shoe’s signature layered side panels are completely draped in a glossy metallic gold finish. The unapologetic shine of the upper is slightly softened by matching tonal mesh underlays, ensuring the silhouette remains dynamic yet wearable. Providing a sharp visual contrast, the design is anchored by a solid black sole unit equipped with the Air Max 95’s signature visible cushioning system.Beyond the striking color palette, the sneaker incorporates several direct nods to the beloved Total 90 football line. Special details include circular “95” branding on the tongue—reminiscent of the classic T90 logo—alongside custom checkered insoles and distinct Air Max text strategically placed near the heel bubble, making the shoe feel like a genuine tribute rather than a simple color swap.Joining a growing roster of T90-inspired colorways, the Nike Air Max 95 Total 90 “Metallic Gold” is expected to make its grand debut in Summer 2026.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

Name: BEAMS x Paraboot CorsicaColorway: BlackSKU: 11320875099MSRP: ￥62,700 JPY (approx. $390 USD)Release Date: Available nowWhere to Buy: BEAMSBEAMS and Paraboot have joined forces to deliver an exclusive iteration of the classic Corsica. Serving as a hybrid silhouette, the collaborative model successfully merges the laid-back profile of a deck shoe with the refined structure of a traditional coin loafer.Crafted in Spain, the upper takes on a bold, asymmetric “crazy pattern” design that BEAMS is renowned for bringing to its collaborative projects. The shoe meticulously incorporates three distinct textures of premium cow leather across its paneling: a pebbled grain finish, a glossy smooth leather, and a soft, textural suede. This deliberate material clash adds an elevated, tactile edge to the upper while ensuring the foundational leather remains supple enough for immediate comfort.Down below, the traditional slim sole commonly associated with the model is swapped out for a robust rubber lug sole. This intentional design choice injects a sense of utilitarian volume to the sleek loafer profile, offering improved stability and a contemporary stance that pairs effortlessly with relaxed fits and wider trousers. Highlighting its versatility, the reimagined footwear arrives in two distinct, classic colorways—an understated all-black rendition and a rich, earthy brown option.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

SummaryNew Balance and DSM debut a performance collection led by the purple SC Elite V5, featuring a carbon fiber plate and responsive PEBA midsole.The drop includes ultralight racing apparel and aerodynamic footwear, continuing a long-standing partnership focused on technical, exclusive runners available at Dover Street Market.New Balance x Dover Street Market has arrived with a running-focused collection that will have your next run covered head-to-toe.The collection is led by an exclusive New Balance SC Elite V5, a lightweight model that features a carbon fiber plate and an “ultra-responsive “PEBA midsole. Joining the deep purple-hued SC Elite V5 is a range of athletic apparel, including the Race Day Ultra Light T-shirt, a panelled windbreaker, and high-cut split shorts. ⁠New Balance calls the SC Elite V5 its most advanced race-day shoe, omitting its signature overlays and excess bulk for a lighter feel on the feet and aerodynamic performance. Furthermore, the breathable mesh upper is ideal for keeping cool mid-race, while the 1.7mm thick outsole material is designed for superior traction across various surfaces.The American footwear label and the Comme des Garçons-affiliated retailer have been partnering on exclusive releases for years, with a pointed focus on the UK. In 2025, the two refreshed the 991v2 MADE in UK model with all-black Nubuck leather overlays on the mesh uppers, and similarly in 2024, the 991v2 sneaker was rendered with dual-toned midsoles for the London Marathon. Earlier in 2022, the New Balance Made in U.K. 991, produced in Flimby, Cumbria, was exclusively offered at Dover Street Market. The new DSM SC Elite V5 only takes the design-meets-performance theme to the next level, focusing on New Balance’s self-proclaimed best running shoe and updating it with its CDG-coded minimalist aesthetic.Shop the collection now exclusively at Dover Street Market. Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

Name: Clarks Originals Wallabee 2604 PatentColorway: Silver, NavySKU: 26186501-P, 26186520-PMSRP: $170 USDRelease Date: Available nowWhere to Buy: ClarksThe Clarks Originals Wallabee 2604 arrives as a significant structural departure for the brand’s most recognizable silhouette. Released as part of the annual Wallabee Day celebrations, this iteration trades the model’s heritage soft-focus textures for a high-gloss, technical build designed to offer increased longevity and modern utility.The primary technical update centers on the outsole, where Clarks Originals has bypassed its signature natural crepe in favor of a specialized Vibram Milton unit. This high-performance rubber foundation is engineered for superior grip and abrasion resistance, providing a more rugged alternative to the standard Wallabee tooling. The outsole’s deep grooves and firm composition transition the shoe from a lifestyle staple to a piece capable of handling more demanding urban environments.The upper construction is equally refined, utilizing premium patent leather across both the “Silver” and “Navy” colorways. This material choice provides a structured, weather-resistant shell that maintains its shape better than traditional suede. Functional design details include tonal wax laces and a classic moccasin-stitch toe, while the interior is lined for comfort during extended wear. To mark the release, each pair includes two exclusive decorative fobs — a leather-molded wallaby and a “Wallabee Day” tag — alongside a subtle logo hit embossed into the heel.Referencing the date itself (26/04), the Wallabee 2604 name points back to April 26, 1971, when a massive shipment of 4,176 pairs arrived at JFK International Airport. In what has since become a cornerstone of the brand’s heritage, US customs officials famously mistook the crate contents for live wallabies. This moment of confusion helped propel the shoe from a British export into a global subcultural icon, eventually finding its home in the wardrobes of Wu-Tang Clan members and the dancehall kings of Kingston.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

Name: Bluetile x Nike SB Dunk LowColorway: Black/White-Campfire Orange-MarinaSKU: IQ1323-001MSRP: $135 USDRelease Date: May 4, 2026Where to Buy: NikeFor its inaugural Nike SB collaboration, South Carolina skate shop Bluetile is delivering far more than just a fresh colorway. Looking well beyond surface-level aesthetics, the Bluetile x Nike SB Dunk Low “Monarch Butterfly” uses the insect’s legendary migration as a profound symbol of movement, identity, and the search for home. Connecting the butterfly’s path to the real-life experiences of Mexican immigrants, the release is a heartfelt tribute to the diverse individuals who bring color to and uplift Bluetile’s local skate community.The deeply personal project is anchored by the story of Irving, a Bluetile team member who made his own journey from Veracruz, Mexico, to become an integral part of the South Carolina skate scene. Translating this narrative into footwear, the Dunk Low features a dark black base layered with textured leather panels. Vibrant “Campfire Orange” details and rich “Marina” blue Swooshes mirror the iconic wings of the Monarch while also reflecting the sunset hues of Columbia, South Carolina, firmly establishing a sense of place.To further elevate the storytelling, the shoe incorporates several thoughtful design touches. Unique fuzzy laces add a tactile layer to the concept, while custom butterfly-themed heel embroidery and graphic insoles round out the tribute. The result is a highly detailed, community-driven collaboration where every element feels earned rather than merely decorative.The Bluetile x Nike SB Dunk Low “Monarch Butterfly” will be released via a special staggered schedule. The drop kicks off with an in-store launch on May 2, 2026, at Bluetile’s Columbia location, followed by a Charleston release on May 3. A wider online release will then take place on May 4 through Bluetile’s official website. Retail is set at $135 USD, though a broader Nike SNKRS release has yet to be confirmed. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Bluetile Skateshop (@bluetilesc)Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

Name: adidas Originals Samba Bowling “Leopard,” adidas Originals Samba Bowling “Core Black”Colorway: Core Black/Gold Metallic, Core Black/Cloud White/Ecru TintSKU: KK2824, KI9995MSRP: ¥33,000 JPY (approx. $210 USD)Release Date: Available nowWhere to Buy: CONFIRMED appadidas Originals continues to reengineer its most ubiquitous terrace silhouette with the Samba Bowling, a specialized hybrid that trades the football pitch for the aesthetic of the bowling alley. This two-pack release focuses on premium material construction and structural pivots that distinguish it from the standard indoor soccer model.Materiality is at the forefront of this release, with each colorway utilizing distinct textures to achieve a premium finish. The “Leopard” iteration employs a tactile pony hair upper printed with a bold animal motif, which is then contrasted by high-gloss patent leather on the Three Stripes and the iconic T-toe overlay. In contrast, the “Core Black” version opts for a sleek, uniform look, utilizing patent leather across the entire upper to emulate the polished, reflective surface of professional bowling footwear.Architecturally, the Samba Bowling introduces several functional deviations from the original 1950s design. The most prominent technical update is the oversized, vertical pull-tab at the heel, which is integrated to streamline the process of putting on and removing the shoe. This is complemented by white contrast stitching that traces the lateral panels, a design cue pulled directly from vintage bowling shoes. Both models are anchored by a low-profile gum rubber cupsole, ensuring that while the upper enters new stylistic territory, the underfoot feel remains true to the Samba’s performance heritage.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

Award-winning author Caleb Azumah Nelson distills the nostalgic magic of southeast London’s football scene through illuminating essays, while London College of Fashion historian Thomas Turner breaks down the granular material and design shifts. Rounding out the deep dive is a special 12-page glossy insert that acts as the ultimate Department of Nike Archives boot room, displaying every model dating from 1971 to the present day.For decades, the football pitch has acted as a proving ground for some of Nike’s most daring technological and aesthetic advancements. Longtime followers of the brand know that the cultural footprint of these cleats extends far beyond the stadium.
