First known as the Vans #36, the Old Skool debuted in 1977 with a unique new addition: a random doodle drawn by founder Paul Van Doren, and originally referred to as the “jazz stripe.” Today, the famous Vans Sidestripe has become the unmistakable-and instantly recognizable-hallmark of the Vans brand. Constructed with durable suede and canvas uppers in a range of fresh colorways, the Old Skool pays homage to our heritage while ensuring that this low top, lace-up shoe remains as iconic as ever. It also features re-enforced toe caps, supportive padded collars, and signature rubber waffle outsoles.
In September 1985, Nike and MJ launched the Air Jordan 1. A month later, they were “banned” by the league. Although the AJ1 is a sports and streetwear icon now, back when the sneakers debuted, they were highly disruptive and instantly revolutionary. While the league may have tried to stop MJ from lacing up in the original AJ1, they couldn’t do anything to temper the fans, so “They Can’t Stop You From Wearing Them” became a defiant rallying cry. Now, the spirit of the sneaker is brought to life through the ‘Rebellionaire’ Air Jordan 1, which features that same not-so-subtle reminder printed all over the style’s upper, and includes a Red “X” mark on the heel to commemorate the birth of the banned legend.
Summoned with the same tooling as the 2021 ‘University Blue’, pink hues fill the upper of this one, using suede throughout for a soft-touch guise. Speckled mudguards maintain its durability, while Jumpman logos are perched on the heel and tongue alike. Rubber soles keep things grippy and hardwearing underfoot, and visible Air units complete the classic look while delivering the best court comfort around.
The radiance lives on in the Nike Air Force 1 ’07, the b-ball OG that puts a fresh spin on what you know best: durably stitched overlays, clean finishes and the perfect amount of flash to make you shine.
The BIRKENSTOCK Milano guarantees maximum grip and gives the feet stability in any movement scenario. This is thanks to the slightly more compact upper with two straps and the wide backstrap. The upper is made from the skin-friendly, hard-wearing synthetic material Birko-Flor®.
The Nike Air Force 1 ‘07 ‘Computer Chip’ is drawn from a limited collection launching in conjunction with LeBron James’ ‘Space Jam: A New Legacy,’ the standalone sequel to the original 1996 film. The vintage hoops shoe features computer chip-inspired graphics throughout the upper, crafted from black leather with matching black textile on the quarter panel. Upon closer inspection, the circuit lines coalesce into familiar forms that strongly resemble the silhouettes of Bugs Bunny and his newest Tune Squad teammate, LeBron James. The angular lines — rendered in tonal fashion except on the quarter panel, where they’re etched in blue — glow in the dark, along with the milky rubber outsole
