Iman Shumpert might still be under contract with the Cleveland Cavaliers, but he’s now a sneaker free agent. The past couple of weeks Iman has been seemingly everywhere from showing up at the Yeezy Season 4 unveiling to support Teyana Taylor to training with teammates Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love. And while Shump hit the fashion show in a pair of the adidas Yeezy Boost 350 “Pirate Black”, he’s most recently been spotted wearing the likes of Nike and Jordan Brand. With two of Nike’s signature superstars on his team already in Kyrie Irving and LeBron James, it’s probably a safe bet that Iman will be lacing up a Swoosh silhouette this coming season. We’ll have to wait and see.

Since Kanye’s abrupt departure from Nike, a part of me feels this is a subtle jab towards the brand with a ?flat? Swoosh. Other than that, I like the overall colorway and it?ll obviously get the attention it deserves.

adidas Originals teamed up with Parley for the Oceans for a small run of a futuristic, sustainable silhouette known as the adidas Parley Boost.

Now the duo is back for another upcoming collaboration with the adidas Ultra Boost and adidas Ultra Boost Uncaged.

The Parley adidas Ultra Boost models will be available in both men’s and women’s size runs, while the familiar silhouettes utilize new textiles that better represent Parley’s mission for sustainability.

Adidas has no plans whatsoever of slowing down with the NMD as we’re constantly being given new colorways every few weeks.

As we approach the Fall we take a look at two new options that will be kicking off the month of October. Both of these NMDs feature a combination of nylon mesh on the majority of the upper with new suede detailing on the heel. The first pair comes covered in light blue with gold detailing on the heel pull tab and the outsole. The second pair takes on a very familiar black upper with a touch of blue on the pull tab on the heel. Both colorways come with white Boost midsoles so those of you that were hoping for more colored Boost will have to wait a little longer.

Which colorway are you looking forward to picking up most? Check them both out above and look for them to land at select adidas Originals retailers beginning on October 1st.

The adidas NMD continues to undergo changes as we now see the lifestyle runner get beefed up for the upcoming Fall season.

Up above we take a look at what’s being known as the adidas NMD Chukka TR. Adidas has transformed what was once a low-top runner into what’s now essentially a sneakerboot/hiking shoe. This new version of the NMD features a new mid-top chukka look, a new canvas-type material on the upper, leather detailing on the heel counter, and new treading on the outsole that will give you a better grip when the rain and snow eventually get here.

Expect the adidas NMD Chukka TR to arrive at select retailers on October 1st. Will you be copping a pair?

I like the idea/concept behind this shoe, but I’m not a fan of the chukka look on the NMD. I’ll pass on these.

Check this out. The adidas Y-3 line got its hands on the adidas Originals Superstar and gave it a revamped look, zippers included. Don’t knock it before you try it, let’s take a closer look at what is officially known as the adidas Y-3 Super Zip.

The adidas Y-3 Super Zip has a sleeker look compared to a normal Superstar due to the fact that it does not come with Three Striped branding on the sides. In Y-3 fashion, they’ve decided to give the model some added oomph by adding some zippers and removable panels right down the center of the shoe. By doing this, you end up having several different ways of styling the shoes, it’s up to you to find the right combination. Yohji Yamamoto branding appears on the tongue, while off-White midsole and shelltoe remain true to form. Available now at select retailers, pick up your very own pair for $340.

Personally, it’s usually hit or miss when it comes to Y-3 sneakers. This new model is probably something I would not wear.

Looking for a super versatile sneaker with a classic look and feel to them? You can’t go wrong with picking up the adidas Gazelle in this brand new Core Black colorway. Coming in Black from top to bottom, let’s take a closer look at the shoe.

Opting to switch things up a bit, the adidas Gazelle comes constructed out of a leather upper instead of the usual suede build we’ve seen during these last couple of months. The shoe comes in the aforementioned all-Black leather look that also included the embossed trefoil branding on the tongue, Three Stripes on the side panels, lining, laces and last but not least, the entire sole. The only part of the shoe not coming in Black is the Gold Gazelle branding placed right next to the Three Stripes. Available now at select retailers, are you liking this new look on the Gazelle?

It may take some time to get used to the leather on the model, but I think I can work with it. Nice to see the shoe done differently.
