This highly-anticipated release includes an extra piece of leather with the Jordan logo on the tongue — similar to what you’d see on the waistband of a pair of jeans — as well as the signature Levi’s red tab on the outside.

You could go the extra mile and accompany your new kicks with the Levis Strauss & Co. reversible trucker jacket. One side of the jacket features Levi’s classic denim texture with red Flight Suit accents on the arm, and the other boasts the classic nylon look complete with the Jumpman logo.

Air Jordan, crafted by sneaker god and Nike designer Tinker Hatfield, hit the shelves in 1985 as Michael Jordan began to pave his way to basketball immortality. The Air Jordan sneakers has since garnished somewhat of a cult following, experiencing frenzied crowds on release dates and absurd resell prices. Jordan’s first-ever collaboration in 2005, the UNDFTD x Air Jordan 4, retails fort $55,000 on Stadium Goods — the most expensive pair of shoes they’ve ever offered.

The Levi’s x Air Jordan 4 ($255) and matching Levi’s Jordan Reversible Trucker Jacket ($180) were released Wednesday, January 17 at select retailers; you can find the full list here. Rumors on Sneaker News say we could see a black denim colorway release in June 2018.

If you do invest in a pair, you’re going to want to learn how to clean sneakers. Seeing as how these are denim, though, you might want to take some tips from our jean-washing guide.

Eton brings back the classic white collar for the 2025 spring season

The perfect companion to the return of the 80s power suit just dropped

Eton shirts white collar hero

We have been talking about it for months now; the past is coming back around to dress you like your ancestors. Or, in some ways, redress you the way you used to dress. Whether you are the kind of guy who wants to adopt the vintage aesthetic from the mid-century, the guy who wants to relive his 80s glory days, or the guy who wants to dust off his Y2K looks to justify listening to his Nickleback CDs, trends are going your way. For the 80s lover, you will be happy to know that the power suit is back, and it is time for you to dust it off and dominate the workday. There is also the drop of the power suit's best friend with the Eton white collar collection that relaunches a menswear classic.
Perfect 80s companion to the return of the power suit

If you are a fan of 80s movies, you may be quite familiar with what we are talking about here. Michael Douglas' Gordon Gecko was the pinnacle of style when he threw on his double-breasted pinstripe suit with his pink or blue dress shirt and red tie. But what made him stand out was the contrasting collar that gave his outfit a little more depth than those around him. The eye was drawn to him the moment others walked into the room. If you like more modern movies, think of Leonardo DiCaprio's turn in The Wolf of Wall Street, where the same was true of him. With the return of this classic, along with the power suit, you, too, can command the room. Only, maybe don't break the law like these fellas.

CNCPTS x Burton celebrates three decades with ‘Rabbit Hole’

Skate or Snow, this is a collaboration 29 years old

Whether you are a fan of skating or snowboarding, you are likely familiar with CNCPTS apparel and Burton Boards. Both have been a mainstay in the industry for a long time and have been frequent collaborators. Now, 29 years after they first got together, they unite again for the CNCPTS x Burton Rabbit Hole collection. They are also bringing in Todd Bratrud, legendary illustrator and designer who created some of the most sought-after footwear collaborations of the early 2000s to make the collection unique and dig into the brand's heritage.

“We have skateboard culture to thank for CNCPTS relationship with Burton, so when we approached this project, we wanted to incorporate aspects of both into the product,” says CNCPTS Creative Director Deon Point. “We have the utmost respect for everything Todd has given to the world of skate. While the footwear iterations allowed us to get creative, there’s only so far you can take it with materials and execution. Todd’s artwork took the inspiration behind each project to new heights.”
