Reebok Releases DMX Run 10 Predator for Superfans and Sneakerheads Alike

Dutch (played by Arnold Schwarzenegger) and co. probably wish they would have had these sneaks when the Predator came a-prowling in the 1987 classic of the same name. Though they don’t offer a cloaking device or thermal imaging per se, what the sneakers lack in alien technology they make up for in homage to one of the greatest action movies of all time.

Using green and yellow lenticular camouflage, Reebok has mimicked the Predator’s invisibility cloak, while the brand’s logo peeks out from the top of the shoe’s tongues like Predator’s glaring eyes. Printed on the interior of the tongues are the phrases “over here” and “turn around” in the Predator’s native alien language. Military coordinates are handwritten in red ink on the side of rippled and curved lizard-like mid-sole, referencing both the original film’s military team infiltration the Central American jungle site and the Predator’s strange amphibian/reptile shaped body.

Topping it all off is one of the Predator’s spine trophy souvenirs hanging from the laces of one shoe. But the cinematic details and don’t end there — the box also contains fun details like a heat-map overlay imitating the Predator’s thermal-imaging vision and a few booby-traps containing hidden messages to appeal to die-hard fanboys and casual watchers alike.

The sneakers celebrate the release of the latest incarnation of The Predator series, Shane Black’s remake of the original, only this time it’s based in the backwoods of Georgia, the soldiers are all ex-military, and the Predator is smarter, stronger, and deadlier than before. But remember, “If it bleeds, we can kill it.”

The 20th Century Fox X Reebok DMX Run 10 Predator sneakers will be available September 14, 2018, to correspond with the box office opening of The Predator. The sneakers will be available at Reebok, extrabutter.com, and retailers worldwide.

The 10 Most Expensive Shoes in the World
most expensive shoes for men

As the old saying goes, “You can tell a lot about a man by his shoes.” For the classy gentleman, you’re likely to find him sporting a snazzy pair of dress shoes that were handmade and cost a pretty penny. And because dress shoes are one of the most important pieces in a man’s wardrobe, it’s important to know your options when searching for a pair, especially if you’re trying to find the absolute most expensive shoes on the market.

If you’re dressed to the nines, you’ll need to match that confidence and attention to detail with a killer pair of shoes. You’ll see that many of the most expensive shoes for men feature master-level craftsmanship in design and materials. Many are constructed out of highly durable leathers such as alligator, crocodile, and calfskin that look better with age and last longer than the cheaper grain leather styles used today.

Kestin is a Scottish brand founded in 2015 by Kestin Hare after two decades in the industry. Focused on channeling the heritage of Scotland into his clothing, the company embodies what it means to be Scottish. Last year, the team released an outerwear collection tough enough for the Scottish Highlands. The standout was the Cuillin Down Jacket, which Kestin brought back this year for the new 2024 outerwear collection. The campaign enlists the help of Hamish Frost and Tim Exley, two expert mountaineers and rock climbers, to make an ascent of Fiacaill Ridge and Coire an t-Sneachda in the heart of the Cairngorms. If you need a jacket that can work just as well in the city as it does in the Scottish winds and rain, this is the jacket for you.
The return of a hit

The Cuillin Down Jacket of this year improves on last year's model, constructed from an onion-quilted 100% recycled nylon ripstop treated with a PFC-free, durable water repellent finish. It has 600-fill-power RDS (responsible down standard) insulation of 90% down and 10% feather. The details do the heavy lifting with this vest, featuring drawcords through the hood and hem, elasticated-bound cuffs, and subtle zippered hand warmer pockets lined with an anti-pill fleece. Don't forget the two-way front body zipper and embroidered KESTIN logo at the cuff.

In honor of the 60th anniversary of the Birkenstock Zurich model, the brand has joined forces with Los Angeles-based menswear store Union for a unique collaborative shoe. Instead of simply remixing the Zurich shoe with new details and features, the two brands have combined it with another iconic Birkenstock design. Mixed with the Birkenstock Boston clog model, this new release combines the best of two of the brand’s most recognizable designs. Under the new name Bimshire, this hybrid shoe is the perfect footwear for Birkenstock lovers and non-fans.
Birkenstock x Union Birmshire Clog

The Birmshire clog, inspired by the Boston clog, has the emblematic round-toe suede finish. The Zurich design features luxury canvas overlays with leather straps. This new design will be available in three colorways: pink, taupe, and gray. Another fun addition is found on the footbed, which is painted in Union’s iconic orange hue. Along the edges, the clog is trimmed with “French piping.” Using the best materials for this updated clog, this shoe is bound to be your new favorite casual footwear option. By utilizing different materials in each section of the clog, Union and Birkenstock have also found a way to make two classic designs into a contemporary shoe.
