LeBron James continues to honor Deion Sanders' iconic sneaker legacy, following up on his hybrid takes of the LeBron 21 and the Air DT Max '96 from last year. Even though the LeBron 22 is set to drop in 2024, rumors have been swirling about several mash-ups of the LeBron 21 coming in 2025. Among them? A "Prime '93" edition that pays tribute to the classic Air Diamond Turf 93, which we've already seen teased.
Now, we get our first official look at this hybrid, and it’s everything we hoped for. The sneaker brings together the best of both worlds: a bold “Fire Red” upper with a large midfoot strap, and updated paneling that gives a clear nod to Coach Prime’s retro turf model. This fusion is a game-changer for sneakerheads and LeBron fans alike.
Mark your calendars: the “Prime ‘93” LeBron 21 mash-up is expected to drop on May 9 via Nike SNKRS and select retailers, with a starting price of $180 USD. Keep your eyes peeled for more updates as we get closer to release day.

After years lurking in the archives, the adidas Intimidation Low is finally stepping back onto the scene. Originally debuting in 1999, this slept-on classic helped shape the future of adidas design—most notably influencing the Yeezy 500 with its bold, sculpted sole. Fresh off collaborations with Packer and an upcoming release with HAL Studios, adidas is now bringing the silhouette back to the general market in a fresh new colorway.
Staying true to adidas’ “Feet You Wear” philosophy—built to enhance natural movement and stability—the latest Intimidation Low arrives in a clean “Ivory/Beige” colorway. The sneaker balances boldness with refinement, featuring a ribbed TPU cage and outer detailing in soft off-white and beige hues. A black inner lining adds contrast, giving the design a sense of depth without overpowering its understated elegance.
A true throwback built for today—are you ready to bring the Intimidation back? Link
The world of streetwear loves a good link-up, and this one? It just makes sense. BAPE and Crocs have finally crossed paths, merging their distinct DNA into one unmistakable creation. The result? Exactly what you’d expect—Crocs’ iconic Classic Clog drenched in BAPE’s legendary motifs.
Straight from the vaults of the revered Japanese powerhouse, the BAPE x Crocs collection takes the brand’s signature “ABC Camo” and spreads it across the uppers of the Classic Clog in Green, Blue, and Pink colorways. But the flex doesn’t stop at the camo. Each pair comes loaded with custom BAPE-themed Jibbitz charms, featuring the APE HEAD, BABY MILO, SHARK, TIGER, and the ever-iconic “APE SHALL NEVER KILL APE” slogan. Co-branded footbeds and BAPE’s trademark “R” detail at the strap fastener lock in the collab’s authenticity.
For those looking to lace—uh, slide—into these, the BAPE x Crocs Classic Clog collection drops first via BAPE on March 8, with a wider release through Crocs on March 12. Keep your eyes peeled for pricing and other updates as the launch creeps closer.
Would you rock these in the jungle? Or is this drip too wild?

Salehe Bembury’s got the sneaker world on a leash, and the latest 991v2 collab proves he knows exactly how to keep the streets hungry. Dubbed “Colors Be The Palette,” this ain’t just a name—it’s a mission statement. The shoe is a full-on art project, where every shade plays a part in a bigger vision, like a Basquiat piece that just so happens to be wearable.
New Balance might be best known for its dad-approved grays, but Bembury treats that like a mere suggestion. Instead, the 991v2 gets dipped in a sunset of burnt oranges, deep purples, forest greens, and earthy browns, a colorway that looks like it was plucked straight out of a national park at golden hour. It’s rugged but refined, like trail running in a cashmere sweatsuit.
The material game is as premium as ever—hairy suede panels meet smooth leather overlays, balanced by a mesh underlay that keeps things breathable whether you’re in the streets or the mountains. And let’s not forget the FuelCell midsole, because just like Bembury’s touch on New Balance, comfort is non-negotiable.
His signature thumbprint logo sits proudly on the tongue, a reminder that you’re stepping into a vision, not just a sneaker. Every Salehe drop tells a story, and this one feels like an ode to nature, creativity, and the idea that sneakers don’t have to fit in—they should stand out.
If history’s any indication, these won’t sit. You either catch them at retail, or you’re paying resale rent money. Either way, the flex is eternal.

Casio is back flexing its engineering dominance with the MRG-B2100, the latest heavyweight to join the G-SHOCK MR-G squad. This time, they’re serving up a full-metal beast draped in a mesmerizing “Blue Ink” dial—because luxury and toughness aren’t mutually exclusive.

But the real star? That “Blue Ink” dial, a nod to traditional Japanese kumiko latticework. It’s not just about looks—it’s functional, allowing light to pass through and juice up the solar module beneath.
On the tech side, the MRG-B2100 isn’t just a pretty face. It’s packing:
- Bluetooth connectivity for seamless timekeeping
- LED illumination for maximum visibility
- Automatic hand position correction because precision is non-negotiable
