INTRODUCING NIKE REACT ELEMENT 55 That little iconic swoosh. We know and love it well, and it’s been marking up our favourite garms and creps for generations now, becoming synonymous with some of the most reactionary ads and movements of recent times. And now, all eyes are on the brand again for their latest campaign, Nike React Element 55 By You, a celebration of their newest drop which enlists the help of London’s most exciting and reactionary homegrown talent. A lush hybrid of the Nike Interna tiona lis t (check th a t

stylish upper) and Nike React (only the best sole technology, ofc), the React Element 55 is named after element 55, Cesium, the most reactive metal on the period ic table. It’s available in the explosive key colourway (an iridescent blend of fuchsia and blue), or you can choose to jazz it up with the customisation option, Nike By You. Meaning? Endless takes on vibrant colour palettes, materials and trims, encouraging you to spark a reaction by capturing your own unique energy, your way.

With this unstoppable energy in mind, Nike has brought together three London-based creatives, each formid able forces making waves in their respective industries – photographer Lauren Maccabee, stylist and journalist Bemi Shaw, and makeup artist Salwa Rahman. Each of them have infused the new drop with their own dynamic personalities, creating their own customised designs.

Virgil Abloh Debuts Alternate Off-White x Nike Air Force 1 “MCA” With Black Soles Within Virgil Abloh‘s lineage of Air Force 1s, the “MCA” colorway is certainly among the best, but as many have already given up on a second, wider release, they may have cause to lift their heads up once again. Teased at Paris Fashion Week, of which the designer had two big collections to reveal with LV included, Abloh took to social media to reveal the tooling complete with a few of his

newer design motifs and a striking black sole. This, surely far enough removed from the original to warrant another drop, may still be ever-the-exclusive, possibly even of a friends and family roll-out or simply a 1-of-1. The uppers brandish with the same blue, matching that of the sky-ridden Louis Vuitton backdrop, with metallic swooshes and bold-faced text all provided from the Off-White toolkit;

but, though subtle, the pair also comes equipped with a second lace unit a la his Dunk Lows or any of his athletic models. Red zip ties then flourish near a bottom darkened from midsole to tread. Grab a detailed look at these right here, and if they do end up arriving by way of a retail release, we’ll be sure to report it as information surfaces.

BODEGA X NEW BALANCE 997S “NO BAD DAYS”

Like the No Days Off variant, the No Bad Days 997S is fully intended for daily use, so the basic structure of the shoe, mesh uppers, leather and suede overlays, neoprene bootie, dual ABZORB and ENCAP cushioning and laminate heel counter remain the same. The transition to a mentally focused approach is marked by an inversion of

AYS” AYS” AYS” AYS” AYS” AYS” AYS”

placement. On the No Days Off model, The distressed suede, was featured prominently on the lateral overlay panel and wavy, 660 inspired mudguard.

These high visibility areas outwardly projected the physical results of the no days off ethos. On the No Bad Days 997S, the lateral overlay panel and mudguard are rendered in leather, with the distressed suede relocating to the medial overlay. This inversion is repeated with the dimple embossed neoprene, which also relocates to the lateral of the No Bad Days. This rearrangement keeps the results of your daily efforts evident, if you know where to look, but

presents a fresh, undeterred face as a first impression.

997S

In some ways, you can think of no bad days as the next step of no days off. If No Days Off was about pushing through the natural impulses to stand still in favor of making every day a productive one, No Bad Days is about pushing through the natural impulse to allow instinctual, physical reactions to dictate your state of being, and ending every day with a positive mindset.

Nike x Heron Preston Air Max 720/95 On April 15, Nike By You will undergo a transformation. Out with the old (the trad itional Nike iD experience) and in with the new, a refreshed builder designed to give personalization a more fluid feel. The first drive of the upgraded tech will highlight the sole-swapping Nike Air Max 720/95 Heron Preston By You and allow a whole bunch of new customization options. Launching with Heron Preston is a natural fit. The designer, a former Nike employee, has used his collaborative platform as a springboard for fresh conversation about the breadth of Nike design — sunglasses and a new footwear silhouette, to date. With the Nike Air Max 720/95 Heron Preston By You, Preston’s historic love for the Air Max 95 (it was the first Air Max he owned) matches up with an excitement for the Air Max 720 that is bolstered by engaging in something Preston himself is personally hyped on: customization.

Salomon S/LAB XT-4 ADV Jean-Philippe Lalonde Jean-Philippe Lalonde: I was in the right place at the right time. On a flight to Vancouver, someone from the Salomon team spoke with me. Once at the hotel, I went down to the lobby to eat and Julien Traverse (former manager of Salomon’s Lifestyle division) greeted me. He thought I was someone else, but despite that, we had a great chat and hung out. One thing led to another, and he asked me to apply for the Product Line Manager position in Salomon’s Lifestyle division. Four months later, I’m here in Annecy. Let’s say it was a little bend in my life’s path.

Jean-Philippe Lalonde Salomon is best known for their trail running shoes. Ever been to a trail race? Most athletes will be sporting Salomons. It’s not for nothing they’re a major player in that universe. Over the last couple of years, Salomon is being seen in a distinctly different environment: the city. From Montreal’s hip Mile End to the runways at Paris Fashion Week, you see them hitting the pavement everywhere. During our visit to Salomon HQ in Annecy, France, we had the pleasure to talk about this phenomenon with Jean-Philippe Lalonde, the Lifestyle Footwear Program Manager.

Jean-Philippe Lalonde: There’s a real desire for shoes that work well in daily life. We saw that fashion-oriented shoes didn’t answer comfort or protection needs, for example. People want comfortable shoes, and sneakers are what I call an accessible luxury. You can change everything about your look just by changing your shoes. It’s become the main preference for urban consumers. There’s a demand for a new kind of product, at once fashionable and outdoors-y, and for new brands. Salomon was not on the fashion world radar until recently, but now we’re becoming something big.
