With collaborations by Joe Freshgoods and Aimé Leon Dore under its belt, the New Balance 1000 has steered focus to general release colorways in the past few months. Recent pairs have delivered everything from flashy retro-inspired color combos to conservative, tonal looks, and consistent with what we’ve seen on models like the New Balance 1906R, the Boston brand isn’t shy to shake things up with fresh material and color blocking combos.

Though Teddy Santis has undoubtedly placed a newfound spotlight on New Balance’s MADE in USA offerings, even those without his co-sign serve up a combination of premium materials and sleek colorways. Look no further than the New Balance 997, a staple of the mainline and perfectly exemplifying the Boston Brand’s signature aesthetics in navy & grey.

The New Balance 550 isn’t nearly as popular as it was a few years back, but the retro basketball-turned-lifestyle shoe still looks to play a big role in the Boston brand’s catalog for the foreseeable future. Following an extraordinary run in the early 2020s, the model’s current chapter has introduced a slew of different styles, with many of today’s releases leveraging unique materials, color blocking schemes, and to a somewhat lesser extent; different branding.

The worst thing a sneaker brand can do sometimes is to take one of its best sneakers and think it needs a change. The Air Jordan 3 is just fine being the Air Jordan 3. The Air Force 1 doesn’t need a Lunar sole. The New Balance 997 never needed to become a 997H, whatever that was. The Air Jordan 1 never needed to be made in Flyknit. But once in a while, a brand is able to take one of its best sneakers, see it through a new lens, and, just maybe, make it better.

How New Balance Made One of Its Best Shoes Even Better

Shoe shopping can be frustrating. You find a pair that looks amazing only to get them home, walk in them for a day, and realize your feet are blistered, sore, and sad. No one knows this reality better than the doctors who help people repair the damage done to their feet by ill-fitting, ill-advised footwear. Wouldn’t it be easier — and cheaper — to consult those doctors before you buy shoes? Yes. From sneakers to heels: podiatrists swear by these comfy shoes under $40 on Amazon.

Is there space for the Nike Clogposite in today’s sneaker market? The ambitious Foamposite clog was a straight-to-outlet special when it debuted in the early 2000s and didn’t fare much better when Nike brought it back with the name “Solo Slide” in the 2010s, but given consumer’s newfound appreciation for comfortable, uniquely crafted slip-ons, the Clogposite has never seen such fertile ground for growth.

Breanna Stewart and the US women’s team just tore through the competition in Paris, but the Liberty superstar has a lot staked in Germany as well. She and PUMA unveiled the Stewie 3 with the “City of Love” colorway towards the end of June, revealing her 3rd signature in elegant fashion. Though the first colorway is checked off the list, the shoe still being early in its lifespan means there’s no better time for a splashy new edition. It doesn’t get more high-profile than this: a full-fledged Harry Potter collaboration lands on the Stewie 3 this September.

Some color combinations are so iconic that they take on a life of their own, with general release colorways often evoking prized collaborations through familiar shades. Intentional or not, we’re getting a clear Fragment Design vibe from this latest Jordan Legacy 312 Low, taken in the Japanese imprint’s hallmark color palette of blue, black, and white.

Beaverton, OR

Travel boards worldwide spend years crafting catchy taglines, but few are able to touch the unofficial motto of Naples: “Vir Napule E Po Muore.” A claim that Naples’ natural is so overwhelming, nothing you could possibly encounter afterwards would be worth your time. Does the Nike Air Max Plus dedicated to that concept match that beauty? We’ll leave that up to you, but Beaverton is indeed rolling out a version of the Tn chiefly inspired by Partenope.

Is anyone else excited at the prospect of wearing jeans again? It's the same sort of excitement I had back in May when the concept of wearing, well, anything other than jeans became an option again. However, after a few months of favouring linen and cotton over denim, I'm once again looking forward to the ease of wearing jeans for autumn. That said, coming up with new ways to style them can sometimes feel monotonous—there are only so many tops and jackets you can wear them with that feel "new", after all. So, ahead of next season, I decided to do some research and stockpile some chic jeans looks to inspire me this autumn. Being a self-confessed Francophile, I turned my attention to French women.
