Ronnie Fieg’s New Balance Mykonos 997.5 Collection....

After already getting a preview of both the “Cyclades” and the “Archipelago”, now we have the coinciding release details for Ronnie Fieg’s latest project with New Balance. Fieg in turn accounts for the first person to collaborate on the Made in USA 997.5. The “Cyclades” delivery draws inspiration from a trip Fieg took to the Nammos resort in Mykonos, Greece. The colorway points to this particular photograph taken by the designer/shop owner, as the imagery can then also be seen on the insoles of the sneaker. The orange forefoot is representative of the umbrellas, while the beige midfoot symbolizes the soft sand. Finally, the seafoam green detail on the heel mimics the waters of the Aegean Sea. The upper notes construction from pigskin suede, and a white 998 ABZORB midsole unit rests underneath. Next, the “Archipelago” plays on a similar theme, boasting a blue colorway that is once again a nod to the Aegean Sea. “N” logo branding has been shaded in tropical seafoam, while pigskin suede has also been utilized on the upper of this pair. 3M accents are featured, in addition to a white 998 ABZORB midsole unit. Each sneaker ultimately arrives in custom packaging, alongside five sets of laces and a pair of KITH x Stance Mykonos Fusion Ankle Socks. Look for RF’s New Balance Mykonos 997.5 collection to release on Friday at KITH locations as well as online. The “Cyclades” will also be made available online at 11 a.m. EST, while the “Archipelago” was released digitally as a Friends and Family Loyalty Program exclusive and will not have a wider online release.

According to Foot Locker EU, fans can expect these to touch down in limited quantities both in-store and online this Friday, October 14 at 9 a.m. CEST.

Air Jordan 1 "Banned"

If the Air Jordan XXX1 “Banned” didn’t exactly strike your fancy upon its unveiling in Las Vegas yesterday, fear not: the OG inspiration behind the kicks is indeed making a comeback later this summer as Jordan Brand used the debut of the XXX1 to take the wraps off of this year’s retro of the infamous “Banned” Air Jordan 1. Originally teased on social media via promos with both Russell Westbrook and His Airness himself, the 2016 retro of the “Bred” look stays true to the 1985 original, adopting a leather build and iconic black and red colorway while ditching the tonal “X” that decorated the heel of 2011′s drop. Perhaps best of all for the purists, since the kicks come in the form of the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG, the Nike Air branding remains intact on the tongue. Sadly, these will cost you a bit more than their mid-’80s MSRP of $65 USD, but, nonetheless, the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Banned” will be welcomed with open arms when it hits shelves September 3. And you don’t have to worry about incurring a $5,000 USD fine and the league’s wrath when you rock ‘em.....
