Mephisto’s Rainbow silhouette is a chic and timeless sneaker design that will fit any style or closet. While the Rainbow collection already has a substantial range, their latest collaboration with Madhappy adds two new variations that are must-haves for everyone. A minimalist take on the shoe, the Mephisto and Madhappy Rainbow design is sleek enough for an elevated footwear choice, yet still has the casual chicness of an everyday sneaker. Madhappy, known for their playful and contemporary style brings their brand identity into the mix, as they’ve previously down with other collaborations. For those looking for the perfect everyday sneaker, especially in an easy-to-style neutral, the Mephisto x Madhappy Rainbow sneaker is one to watch.

Although Mephisto’s Rainbow silhouette comes in various colorways and styles, the Madhappy collaboration sneaker brings a contemporary take on the brand’s heritage sneaker. Unlike other collaborations that can get bold and bright patterns and colors, this sneaker is all about a functional piece that works with your closet. Available via Mephisto, the Rainbow sneaker is priced at $345. As a bonus, one percent of the proceeds of each sale goes to The Madhappy Foundation which works to raise awareness and fund research for the mental health movement.

New Balance’s controversial loafer is getting a dapper new look

New Balance releases new loafer

While there’s still debate about whether New Balance’s loafer design is stylish, the brand is pulling out all the stops with the shoe. Although the New Balance 1906 loafer has already been released in silver and black, the athletic brand wants to expand on the design with a new material that gives it a dressier upgrade. For those not yet convinced about the loafer sneaker silhouette, the newest release is a much more similar design that you are accustomed to seeing. Just as with the previous loafer releases, interested fans should act quickly, as there’s no doubt these releases will sell out quickly as well.
New Balance 1906L in Suede

Unlike the previous New Balance 1906L, which came in a mesh and synthetic leather upper, the new duo comes in a luxurious textured suede material. Excluding the TPU heel stabilizer, the new loafer shoe comes covered in a suede fabric that instantly upgrades the look and feel of the design. Made available in black or brown suede, these new loafers come equipped with all of the footwear technology included in previous releases. Both colors include a black sole, for a sleek yet sturdy look. While New Balance has yet to release an official release date on their suede duo, the retail price will be set at $160. Considering the brand recently released a new colorway for the loafer in the typical mesh and synthetic upper, there’s no doubt the suede loafer will be released soon. While the design remains controversial to some, New Balance’s attempt to create out-of-the-box footwear is a welcome sign for the future.
