Sacai x Nike Blazer Mid

No introduction is needed when it comes to the much-hyped Sacai x Nike Blazer Mid. This collaboration introduces loud colors to one of Nike’s iconic silhouettes, along with the unique and unmistakable addition of doubled elements. The sneaker will arrive in two colorways, yellow/navy and black/blue via online raffle on END – where it’s priced at S$335 – and DSM E-Flash on a first-come-first-served basis for a lower price of S$219.

Nike Air Max Susan
May 30

The Nike Air Max Susan is the result of a collaboration with studio LAIKA to celebrate the release of the film Missing Link in April. The shoes feature design touches heavily inspired by the film’s main character, Mr. Link, and his plaid suit. Surprisingly, the sneaker will make a return this Thursday, May 30. Clearly, it’s a second chance not to be missed. The disordered yet playful nature of the sneaker comes together beautifully through the mix of colors and textures on the upper, details like cuff links and the hard-to-miss leather-wrapped midsole.

Adidas x Undefeated Ultraboost

Undefeated and Adidas continue their prolific collaboration with another spin on the Ultraboost model. While the details are minimal, two standout features of the sneaker include the highly popular 1.0 knit pattern and the oversized Undefeated branding on the toe box – in red on the right shoe and blue on the left. The sneaker drops this Friday, May 31, retailing at S$279.
