Sneaker News Info + Updates May 16th

adidas tapped long-time collaborator Parley for an Ultra Boost paired with 4D technology. Carhartt WIP and Converse diverted more than 108,000 textile items from landfills. Montreal-based design studio JJJJound revealed its upcoming Reebok Classic Nylon. But first, a look at Travis Scott‘s first Nike Air Max collaboration.

Unveiled via an online webstore for the Cactus Trails Trading Co., La Flame’s Air Max 270 and its accompanying apparel travels back to the 1990s. Everything from color palettes and website layout to promotional campaigns featuring Mick Foley, who went by “Cactus Jack” throughout part of his legendary wrestling career, scream “time travel.” And while the Air Max 270 React ENG – the silhouette Scott uses for his “Cactus Trails” release – has been on the market since January, its association with the JACKBOYS frontman is sure to garner it some unprecedented attention.

Elsewhere under the NIKE, Inc. umbrella, a handful of first-looks at rumored Jordan release dates for 2020 and beyond surfaced. Among several mockups, detailed images of the Jordan 14 Gym Red and latest Jordan 1 Low Galaxy surfaced, showcasing just how diverse Michael Jordan’s signature sneaker line is. News of the original low-top Jordan 1 returning Spring 2021 had many comparing and contrasting the silhouette to what’s currently on the market. Other notable news under The Swoosh conglomerate pertained to a third “Duck Camo” Air Max 90; the return of the original Air Penny 3; an unreleased lifestyle Jordan model seen on ESPN’s “The Last Dance“; a detailed look at Giannis Antetokounmpo’s second Nike Basketball sneaker; and more.

Rebook became the topic of conversation when news broke that it was cancelling the retail release of Kobe Bryant’s Player Exclusive Question Yellow Toe. Furthermore, the Massachusetts-based brand had fans of minimalism excited as it revealed an understated Classic Nylon by way of JJJJound’s Instagram account. New Balance also had old and new enthusiasts alike eager over the slew of New Balance 992s slated for the model’s 14th Anniversary.
