After significant collaborations with high-caliber brands like HOKA and Crocs, SATISFY has officially launched its first trail sneaker, unlike anything the brand has produced. Named “TheROCKER,” this sleek and innovative new sneaker from SATISFY reflects how the brand will tackle this new challenge with every bit of style and technology. Much like the rest of the brand’s repertoire, this sneaker explores premium materials with the best footwear technology to deliver chic and practical streetwear-inspired shoes. Using original silhouettes and details, SATISFY’s first attempt at a running and trail sneaker is a great sign for the future. While the shoe isn’t immediately available, there’s no doubt that it will be the first of many footwear additions for the Parisian brand.

Make way for TheROCKER

While little is known about the colorways available for its release, it is understood that SATISFY will use a mixture of technological materials that improve the wear and usage of the sneaker. Crafted using semi-translucent uppers made of Rippy Monomesh, these sneakers are equipped to help with stabilization and moisture management. The midsoles use SATISFY’s Euforia, a blend of PEBA and EVA, created via 3D printing for ultimate cushioning. The TuneLug pattern on the outsoles ensures stability and traction in any environment or climate. In their first teaser of the shoe, SATISFY unveiled a solely bone hue with a chunky outsole lug that exudes versatility. Expected to be released in time for Summer 2025, SATISFY has yet to confirm a retail price or retailer for the shoe. While we will have to wait until we can get a pair, the announcement of SATISFY’s first trail sneaker will bring plenty of excitement for the brand’s future.

adidas announces new Samba sneaker

It’s no secret that adidas’ Samba sneaker has become some of the hottest sneakers of the time, with its narrow and chic style. With the heightened popularity of the shoe, adidas has taken advantage of the momentum with various collaborations and remixes that appeal to a multitude of Samba lovers. Some previous Samba remixes, specifically the Wales Bonner collaboration, have gained cult status with their luxurious look and feel. Taking this luxe design as inspiration, adidas has unveiled a new elevated Samba sneaker complete with a hairy texture. While the texture might seem less sophisticated, the design is sleek and statement. Available in two chic colorways, the newest Samba sneaker might be one of their finest creations yet.
adidas Samba ‘Pony Hair’ pack

For the first of the colorways, the Samba sneaker is crafted in a maroon pony hair texture with woven stitching for a handmade look. Complete with light pink Three Stripes along the side and two sets of laces, this sneaker is the ultimate pop of color to add to your look. For those looking for a more neutral look, the Samba will also come in a White/Core Black colorway, for a more classic look. Both color combinations utilize the sleek Pony Hair texture for an elevated feature that doesn’t overpower the look. Both colorways will retail for $120 and be made available later this year via the adidas platform. Although fans will still have to wait for a pair, there’s no doubt this sneaker is already proving to be a success.

Constructed to be a chunkier sneaker, this new sneaker marks a new direction for the brand in the new year.
Introducing HOKA’s Project Transport

Loosely based on the Transport silhouette, HOKA’s new Project Transport is a clean and simple design made for minimalist fans. Crafted with a sleek shrouded ripstop upper with synthetic leather overlays, the Project Transport is a no-fuss sneaker with plenty of style. A textured TPU film on the toebox, midfoot, and heel with reflective accents gives the shoe a futuristic touch that adds to the overall look. The Vibram Ecostep adds maximum traction year-round for any terrain you journey through. The three colorways: black, grey, and green, allow users to opt for the best hue for their wardrobe. Whether you seek a sleek minimalist or a more statement green, the Project Transport is a simple shoe with a clean silhouette you’ll seldom find from HOKA again. Those looking to add the new design to their wardrobe can purchase it via the HOKA website for $160.

With a new season coming up, it’s time for every style enthusiast's favorite era: Fashion Week. Held during the final week of January through the beginning of February, Paris Fashion Week Men’s typically helps kick things off with one-of-a-kind shows and designs that will ultimately influence future trends. For the Paris Fashion Week Men’s FW25 season, many designers showcased some of their boldest and loudest pieces yet, marking the continuation of a maximalist trend in the industry. While the clothing pieces made for some eccentric looks, the footwear managed to captivate the eyes of many. Throughout the week, designers displayed some of their boldest and out-of-the-box footwear, making for some interesting future purchases. With many collaborations and housemade shoe options, this year’s Paris Fashion Week Men’s was a definite win for maximalists everywhere.
Comme des Garçons Homme Plus

As we’ve seen through their previous footwear releases, Comme des Garçons isn’t afraid of creating a bold shoe. However, for Paris Fashion Week, the fashion brand went out-of-the-(shoe)box for a boot that, at first glance, seems normal but is truly a surrealist work of art. Displaying an army boot with a lifted 90-degree angle toe box, this boot is bold enough to deserve a second look. While crafted for the runway, this boot can perfectly find its match in everyday life, especially for those not afraid of a small quirk.
