Japanese brand Vanquish and sneaker boutique CHAPTER have teamed up with adidas Originals this spring for a superb collaboration. Using the adiRise silhouette as the starting point, the collaborators chose a sporty and refined look. Black studs and perforation give this pair a subtle look, while patent leather, smooth leather, and mesh materials throughout the majority of the upper exude a calm, smooth feel. Look for this pair to drop in late March.

Just want to buy a pair of Nike Vandal High Supreme – Black Nylon right now? Nike Vandal High Supreme – Black Nylon.

It has been a long time no-see for the Nike Vandal High Supreme but now that it is back, it is showcasing in a completely different form, not wearing either leather or suede but a nylon base which makes the upper a total cool. Getting in-lined with the remaining winter sneakers, this model is taking the last trip to the snowy cold roads. The nylon construction tells how significant it is to own a pair of it during wet season.

Essentially, this Vandal is far from the prior releases that we have seen before due to the material it is made of. Being a nylon-based shoe makes the ride lighter and even more stylish than the way it was made conventionally. Black nylon wraps the entire upper with a beige leather Swoosh and heel tab. Of course, the patented Vandal ankle strap appears in an even distinct way as it’s made of tri-colored fabric twine sporting white, beige, and black. The midsole finally contrasts the dark upper as it is done up in vintage-treated white support.

You can check out Purchaze now for this fresh Vandal Supreme.

Just want to buy a pair of Nike LeBron 9 – Mango right now? Nike LeBron 9 – Mango.

Nike is apparently dropping a generous amount of King James’ signature sneaker wherein it features various colorways in one identical design. As of the latest update, the Nike LeBron 9 is now ready to hit retailers by the second of March with a color-up that’s better known as “Mango”. Is this a theme influenced by the fruit mango? Whatever will be the explanation behind this tone, it is sure that the brand utilizes bright mango that certainly a shade of a ripe fruit.

Moving closer to the shoe, we can identify that the upper is purely done up in black with metallic silver accent seen on the overlays plus speckled midsole. The splash of the ripe mango fruit is visible from the Swoosh outline, LeBron’s signature on the tongue, midsole speckles, inner lining, heel pull tab, Max Air unit, and outsole.

What an impressive colorway for the Dunkman and sure will, your $170 is all worth it.
