Sophnet. recently updated their store with some new items. Included in these new releases are a Serge Mouille (influential French lighting fixture designer) t-shirt, an exclusive I Love F.C.R.B. (Football Club Real Bristol) polo as well as a collaboration Sophnet. x Island Slipper. Island Slipper is sandal company that has manufactured slippers on the island of Hawaii since 1946 and has been an iconic part of Hawaiian culture.
New Balance has just released a classic from the 80’s in the form of the P428B. This low cut basketball sneaker features updated colorways but still maintains the classic mesh toe box and technical features such as Abzorb cushioning which has enabled it to surpass the test of time and still be worthy of a retro. It is currently available in three colorways from Mita, black, blue and purple.
JB Classics have consistently produced some riveting designs and created a name for themselves within all independent sneaker brands. Their latest preview appears to feature purple quilted suede with a red leather upper. This is matched alongside a speckled midsole and one of the craziest soles we’ve ever seen with a mind boggling combination of colors and hues.
Here’s a look of a sample Air Max 1 “Sunrise”. Although the brightly colored gradient midsole is very noticeable, we could not help but notice the 3M reptilian upper that has been making its rounds lately on various different shoes. This particular Air Max model does feature a mesh toe box alongside a patent leather upper as well. No word yet on this sneakers release.
