New Balance 550
Nike Air Huarache 'Off Noir'
Prada x Adidas Forum
Price: $850-$1,120
When: Thursday, Jan. 13 at 10 a.m.
Where: Prada stores, adidas.com, and prada.com
What You Need to Know: Prada continues its ongoing partnership with Adidas with a new four-pack of Forums. Tonal white and black colorways will be up for grabs in high and low-top variations. What separates them from the average Forum is the use of Prada branding on the tongue and inclusion of a removable Prada storage pouch. In an effort to be more sustainable, each pair’s upper is produced using Prada’s recycled Re-Nylon fabric.
Bape x Reebok
Price: $150-$200
When: Saturday, Jan. 15
Where: Bape stores and bape.com
What You Need to Know: Bape and Reebok have linked up once again for a two-sneaker project featuring the Instapump Fury and Club C. The Instapump Fury sports mismatched uppers dressed in various shades of Bape’s signature camo print. The Club C takes a more subtle approach with a white leather upper accented by multicolored stitching. The Bapesta star logo is also present on the lateral side of the left foot and medial portion of the right foot. Each pair is completed with special Bape x Reebok logos stamped on the heel.
Air Jordan 4 'Crimson'
