Baseball inspiration strikes again on the Bespoke Nike Air Force 1 “Vachetta” by Slovadon Pt. 2. White stitching adds contrast and character to a wild cat blue and stealth silver base, set off by a total orange outsole and white branding. Is this the best Bespoke yet from the Frshr Than Your Avrge winner?

The New Balance 574 “Backpack” Collection hits retailers later this year. Paying homage to something nearly every former student can identify with, this collection arrives in varying shades of black, orange, green, blue and red. Each pair is complimented with brown leather accents and white contrast hits on the midsole, laces and inner liner. How does this collection compare to the New Balance 574 “John Henry” previewed earlier this year?
