Air Jordan XXXIV Basketball Shoe

Built around the new Jordan Eclipse Plate, the Air Jordan XXXIV is one of the brand's lightest shoes ever. The plate is formed by two Pebax pieces and a Zoom Air unit, providing added bounce and stability while removing unnecessary foam. Removing non-essential material was a focus for the shoe, in fact, helping to keep weight to a minimum. They're finished with a herringbone traction pattern on the sole, developed using athlete foot scans and designed to facilitate faster cuts and first steps while also allowing athletes to stop more quickly on defense.

Spalwart Trail Blazer Boot Sneakers

Manufactured in the same factory in Europe where Spalwart's founders discovered abandoned machinery and shoe molds, the Swedish brand's sneakers resurrect traditional shoemaking techniques. These boot/sneaker hybrids are lined with high-top paneled suede with a rubber trim, buffed leather padded collar and lining. Each pair of these tough to find shoes has a grey and white foam rubber midsole and are available in black or white.

We recommend sizing up to the nearest whole size for half sizes if you are between sizes.

Nike Air Vapormax Flyknit Gaiter ISPA Shoe

Nike's iSPA team — short for Improvise, Scavenge, Protect, and Adapt — has already made interesting improvements to some models. Now they are addressing the Vapormax Flyknit. As the Flyknit upper is susceptible to water intrusion, they've wrapped it in a removable gaiter that extends up beyond the ankle. It wraps around the traction/cushioning pods on the sole and secures with a full-length zip closure to provide maximum protection against the elements.

Fog Linen Slippers

Made from lightweight, breathable linen, these slippers are perfect for lazy weekends around the house. Fog Linen works with flax growers and weavers in Lithuania to produce all of their linen goods, and these comfortable slippers are no exception. Each pair features a padded footbed and the linen will soften over time for an even more comfortable fit. Available in graphite or herringbone in two sizes.

Medium: 28cm - 11" / Large: 29cm - 11.5"

Sobos 405 Classic Low White Sneakers

It doesn't get more classic than a pair of white sneakers. While the style may be in abundance, this particular pair is extremely rare. You and only 99 other people will have these shoes. Featuring premium leather in a low-cut profile, the Sobos 405 Classics are handmade in Los Angeles using a white rubber margom sole with matching tonal lace-up closures. Limited to just 100 pairs, each one receives its own, individual edition number stamped on the insole to display its exclusive status, and when the last pair is gone, they're gone.

Oliver Cabell Phoenix Sneaker

Aptly named, Oliver Cabell's Phoenix sneaker is made from repurposed plastic water bottles. The bottles are washed, shredded, melted, and pressed into a yarn which is then used to 3D print the shoe's breathable upper. Seven bottles are used to make each understated silhouette which is mated to a lightweight EVA sole. An odor-reducing liner and microfiber tongue enable sock-free wear, and should a smell begin to appear, they're machine washable, ensuring they're always fresh and clean. Available in black or white.

Nike Joyride Run Flyknit Sneaker

Considered the third pillar of Nike cushioning alongside Air and React, Joyride is a series of TPE bead-filled pods that maximize cushioning and energy return. The tech debuts in the Nike Joyride Run Flyknit Sneaker. Each of the pods is a different size and shape and has a different fill density based on how the foot strikes the ground when in motion. The result is a dynamic footbed that forms to your foot and feels a little like running on bubbles. The Run Flyknit is a perfect "recovery" shoe for long-distance runners and a normal runner for everyone else and will be joined in the Joyride lineup by the NSW and NSW Setter in the coming months.

Trickers Masonic Slippers

Combining comfort with the historic Masonic crest, these slippers are a welcome option for your next black-tie event or clandestine back-room meeting. Each pair is made with velvet uppers, leather linings, and a leather sole, along with the gold stitched Masonic compass and square symbols. The black slippers run a little narrow and we advise sizing up a half size larger than your usual size. Smoking jacket, cigar, and map to lost treasure not included.

Adidas Y-3 Raito Racer Black

Part of an ongoing collaboration between Yohji Yamamoto and Adidas, the Y-3 Raito Racer is making an appearance in nearly all black. Officially dubbed the "Black-Y3/Black-Y3/Ftwr White" colorway, it has a black Primeknit upper speckled with white contrast threads and a white and black collar, while the eBoost cushion unit, Quickstrike outsole, and lightweight lacing system are all black. The sneaker is available now at select retailers.

Balmain Troop Strap Trainer

Drawing equal inspiration from military boots and athletic shoes, Balmain's first foray into sneakers — overseen by creative director Olivier Rousteing — is befitting a brand that refers to its fans as an "army". The Troop Strap Trainer, available in hi-top and low-top, combines a glove-like leather upper with Balmain-branded mesh straps that buckle on the side and a rubber sole that wouldn't look out of place on a runner. It's joined in the new lineup by a version that replaces the straps with extra-long laces, and by a more traditional basketball-style sneaker.

Reebok x Bait Toy Story 4 Instapump Fury Sneakers

Woody and Buzz have been inseparable since their 1995 debut in Toy Story. To celebrate their fourth adventure, Reebok and Bait have teamed up for few special pairs of Instapump Fury Sneakers. The left shoe of each pair is themed to Buzz, with Space Ranger graphics and a white, purple, and green color scheme, while the right is an ode to Woody, with denim, cowhide, and yellow plaid elements. No release information has been announced, but it can be assumed these will be highly limited if/when they drop.

Aether Moto Boot

Given Aether's love of the outdoors, it's unsurprising that their first shoe is a boot. The Aether Moto Boot isn't just for riding, though. While the reinforced-leather shift-pad area on the vamp, internal D3O ankle protection, and buttressed midfoot arch are all designed with the motorcycle rider in mind, its understated silhouette and fully lined, 100% vegetable-tanned Italian leather upper are refined enough for all-day wear. They're finished with a Vibram Commando sole Blake-stitched with blue waxed nylon thread and come with an extra set of matching blue laces. Available in black or tan.

Matthew M. Williams x Nike Sneakers

Blurring the lines between boots and sneakers, the latest collaborations between 1017 ALYX 9SM designer Matthew M. Williams and Nike promise versatility if nothing else. The higher silhouette features a sock-like design with a Nike Free Run sole unit, paired with a chunky Vibram outsole that uses velcro straps to hold it in place. A similar Vibram outsole can be seen in the second design, which has a lower cut, a zippered opening from the collar to the footbed, and a mixed upper made from nylon, suede, and Flyknit. Merely teased from Williams' Instagram account, they're expected to drop later in the year.

Porsche Design Hybrid Evoknit Sneakers

With a mid-cut design that belies their running-ready base, these Porsche Design Hybrid Evoknit Sneakers offer a touch of motorsport style. Made by Puma, the shoes have breathable knitted uppers with a lace cage for a lockdown fit, and a Hybrid foam midsole that combines Nrgy beads and Ignite foam for responsiveness and cushioning. Finished with a grippy full rubber outsole, they're available in black/white and white/white colorways.

Converse All Star Pro BB Sneaker

Converse made its first basketball shoe in 1917. Developed in close collaboration with corporate parent Nike, the Converse All Star Pro BB Sneaker leverages this heritage by blending old-school looks with the latest materials. Its design recalls the first All Stars, with an upper made from a single layer of Nike Quadfit mesh that ensures a lockdown fit while maintaining a simple profile. A Nike React foam core provides responsive cushioning, and a cupsole that merges the midsole and outsole keeps the foot close to the floor for a minimal feel. Arriving in May.

Nike Air Jordan IV Bred Sneakers

It's been 30 years since Michael Jordan rose above Craig Ehlo to sink a buzzer beater that would become one of the defining shots of his career. "The Shot" helped push MJ to the next level, and put the Air Jordan IV's he was wearing into the sneaker hall of fame. The iconic colorway and silhouette return to celebrate the anniversary, adding some essential details that were absent when the shoe was last released in 2012. The new Bred IV's bring back the original NIKE AIR branding on the heel, outsole, and sockliner, along with the same orange hangtags and box sold with the sneakers in 1989. The legendary sneaker makes its return this May.
