Although the adidas Samba has been transformed plenty of times, the latest collaboration with Wales Bonner is like nothing you’ve seen before. In their fourth year of partnership, Wales Bonner and adidas have successfully created many iconic moments, including the revival of some of their fastest shoes. However, in their latest release, these two brands have developed a unique style that adds sophistication and style to the famous sneaker. Releasing in time for their Fall/Winter 2024 campaign, the latest collaborative shoe is as unique and fashion-forward as their previous work.

In this vast collection, Wales Bonner gives the classic Samba style an upgrade with two new colorways and unique texture. This upgrade sees the Samaba design in navy and brown options, completely decked out in crocodile-printed leather uppers, basket-weaved tongues, and topstitches on the heel. In a brand new design, the Samba Millennium sees the classic design and gives it a few added touches. Available in two colorways, the Samba Millennium consists of two-toned uppers of smooth leather up to the quarter and added crocodile-printed leather on the heel. The color combinations for the Samba Millennium are silver with brown crocodile leather and mustard yellow with navy blue crocodile leather.

Besides the Samba remixes, Wales Bonner has also given the Superstar sneaker the crocodile treatment. This shoe has the same crocodile-printed leather, patent leather stripes, and a satin lining. The Superstar is available in the same white and black combination we are accustomed to. This collection is now available via the adidas website, the CONFIRMED app, and select retailers. Those looking to purchase will find the prices range from $250 to $280.

When a brand as luxurious as Maison Margiela dabbles in a retro runner sneaker, there’s no doubt that the design is expected to become a full-fledged trend. Although retro sneakers have been on the rise in previous seasons, the latest release from the fashion house is proof that this trend is not going anywhere. Taking inspiration from sprint running shoes, the newest footwear from the brand is all about ‘quiet luxury.’ Crafted with neutral and premium materials, this design can easily fit into any wardrobe or season. Although the design is similar to one released by Nike in the past, its impeccable attention to detail and sophistication is unlike any other you’ll find on the shelves. Acting as a preview of what’s to come in the year for footwear, this Maison Margiela retro sneaker is a perfect investment for the next couple of seasons.

REGAL releases a wingtip shoe

Although dress shoes are the go-to choice for all formal events, there’s one con to sophisticated footwear. Despite the debonair style, dress shoes tend to lack protection against the elements, making them uncomfortable during the colder months. Even in warmer climates, dress shoes can be an unstable and uneasy choice in rougher terrain. In their newest release, REGAL Shoe & Co. is looking to upgrade the iconic wingtip shoe with one that’s stylish and practical. Reinforced with new footwear features, their latest design ensures your style is sleek even in rough conditions. A worthy investment for future events, REGAL’s latest offering is all about durability and being as comfortable as possible. 
Dressing up the REGAL x GORE-TEX Wing-Tip 

With two new takes on REGAL’s Wing-Tip GXB model, the brand buffed up its formal shoe with GORE-TEX. While the two designs have the same familiar look to them, the added features allow them to be easier to wear in cold conditions. Inside the shoe, GORE-TEX fabric allows for breathability while keeping it waterproof. The outside is made with Japanese Sanyo leather and comes with Vibram outsoles. While both designs are the same, the second design comes with contrast white stitching, giving the shoe more flair. Crafted to be lightweight, durable, and comfortable, this wingtip shoe solves your chilly winter events. Retailing for $330 and $331, both designs are available via REGAL’s web store, along with their previous GORE-TEX designs. Although dress shoes are made to be worn during specific events, having a durable and waterproof pair allows you to be ready for anything.

adidas drops chunky new sneaker
yellow, blue, and orange adidas sneaker

Although adidas is known for providing us with some of the most iconic sneakers in the last couple of years, their latest release looks nothing like their classic designs. Taking a cue from early 2000s running shoes, the famed brand adds volume to an already chunky silhouette. Even though designs like the Samba and Gazelles served as a counter product to the ‘dad shoe’ trend, this new drop is all about impact and statement. With four colorways that range from minimalist to bold, this sneaker has a hue for everyone. However, the unique shape and one-of-a-kind sole might be best for those looking to experiment with their style.
