Following last month’s Jordan 1 High Fragment Design x Travis Scott, Jordan Brand extends its three-way collaboration with the Air Jordan 1 Low Fragment Design x Travis Scott.

The Air Jordan 1 Low Fragment Design x Travis Scott nods to the original 2016 Air Jordan 1 Fragment with its simple color blocking of a smooth white leather upper with black and royal blue leather overlays. From there, a signature reversed Swoosh and yellowed soles add a Cactus Jack flair to the classic silhouette.

The Air Jordan 1 Low Fragment Design x Travis Scott releases on Friday, August 13th for $150 on the SNKRS app and at select retailers.

Nike Dunk x Off-White “The 50”

In 2016, Virgil Abloh and Nike unveiled The Ten, one of the biggest and most unique sneaker releases in the past decade. Now, they are raising the bar with the Nike Dunk x Off-White “The 50”, a grand set of 50 Nike Dunk Lows.

The Nike Dunk x Off-White “The 50” is a representation of Off-White’s mantra: “the grey area between white and black as the color of Off-White”. Staying true to this, the first and 50th models in the set feature all-white and all-black palettes. The space in between, models 2-49, arrive in similar off-white and light grey color schemes, but each varies in fabrication and details. 

The Nike Dunk x Off-White “The 50” releases on Monday, August 9th on the SNKRS app and at select Off-White stores.

Air Jordan 1 High Pollen

If you are a fan of the Nike Dunk High Iowa, the Air Jordan 1 High Pollen offers a similar appeal.  

In a simple two-tone format, the upper of the Air Jordan 1 High Pollen is constructed of black tumbled leather with Pollen Yellow overlays and Swooshes. Matching woven tongue tags and a Jordan Wings logo on the collar add authentic 1980s detailing.

The Air Jordan 1 High Pollen releases on Saturday, August 17th for $170 on the SNKRS app or select stores.

Jordan Brand continues to add versatile classics to their women’s collection with the Air Jordan 1 High Seafoam (W).

The Air Jordan 1 High Seafoam (W) arrives in a smooth white leather construction with Seafoam Durabuck overlays and Swooshes. On the laces, crisp bronze trimming stands out against the design’s subtle coloration.

The Air Jordan 1 High Sea Foam (W) releases on Thursday, August 12th for $170 on the SNKRS app and at select retailers.

Nike and Japanese fashion label sacai continue their streak of Blazer Lows with the Nike Blazer Low sacai British Tan.

The Nike Blazer Low sacai British Tan features a British Tan suede and leather upper with bold red accents. Much like previous designs in the Nike x sacai catalog, doubled Swooshes, overlays, tongues, and soles honor sacai’s reconstructive design aesthetic.

The Nike Blazer Low sacai British Tan releases on Tuesday, August 10th for $120 on the SNKRS app and in select stores.

Nike Dunk Low Sail Multi-Camo

Not all camo will help you blend in. In fact, the Nike Dunk Low Sail Multi-Camo will do the opposite.

Boasting clashing camouflage patterns, the Nike Dunk Low Sail Multi-Camo is a statement piece. The design utilizes a white leather base to prominently display its multi-color camo overlays, which feature five different styles of camo. Green Swooshes and vibrant orange Nike embroidery on the heel tabs add the finishing touches.

The Nike Dunk Low Sail Multi-Camo releases on Wednesday, August 11th for $110 on the SNKRS app and at select retailers.
