It’s not unusual for collaborations between brands to take a lengthy time. The process of two creatives coming together and mixing ideas and brands is one that takes a while to flesh out. However, for a collaboration to take almost seven years to come to fruition is hard to come by. The collaboration between Rahul Mishra and Tod’s has been a long time coming, with challenges like the pandemic standing in the way. This partnership is now available under the umbrella of Tod’s Factory, which has become Tod’s creative workshop to collaborate with other designers and brands. The result of Rahul Mishra and Tod’s collaboration is a uniquely ornate and decorative capsule collection that caters to all of the richness and luxury of Indian design.

As part of this exclusive collection, Rahul Mishra and Tod’s have created women’s and men’s pieces which have distinct nods to the designer’s Indian heritage. Some of Tod’s most iconic designs have been transformed and recrafted with unique details that give your wardrobe life and luxury. Each piece has hand-embroidered artwork created by expert Kaagar artisans using generational skills and talent. With this amount of detail behind each stitch, this collaboration is much more about the detail and craftsmanship behind the designs. These hand-embroidered details include Rahul’s iconic design of the Tree of Life.

JJJJound and New Balance’s new shoe is the perfect end-of-year sneaker

JJJJound, New Balance release dark new sneaker

While we’ve grown accustomed to New Balance’s collaborations bringing forth various color schemes and combinations, their newest partnership is a sleeker style for the athletic company. For their third release together, JJJJound and New Balance use their construction and style techniques to create a shoe full of ‘balance.’ Inspired by the idea of balance, the concept of the sneaker is to have a durable and stable design while still looking chic and fashion-forward. Just in time to round out the Fall/Winter 2024 collection, this new release brings a moodier take on an established New Balance silhouette. Although there are plenty of collaborations from New Balance, this partnership with JJJJound is unlike the others.
JJJJound x New Balance 2002R GORE-TEX

Crafted using all-black mesh and leather, this new design from JJJJound and New Balance is a darker and moodier side of the athletic brand than we are used to. While the entire shoe dons a black hue, there are hints of blue found around the heel where the 2002R branding is located. Tonal vamp overlays, rubber outsoles, and an N-ERGY midsole are some of the features that give the sneaker some of the classic New Balance look. Completed with toggle lacing, this sneaker is ready for just about anything. Inside, a waterproof lining helps protect against anything the winter season has prepared. Those keen to round out their winter lineup can purchase the 2002R GORE-TEX via JJJJound’s web store starting December 18 and New Balance on December 20. Made to withstand all of the winter elements, this JJJJound and New Balance release is another collaboration that seems to hit a perfect stride. Unlike recent sneakers full of lively and vibrant hues, this release is for those looking for a more versatile option with all the technical features you need.

In their latest collaboration with Brain Dead, a streetwear brand, Oakley is reviving an old favorite in a way only they can. Through their experimental line, Oakley Street Team, the brand is taking their famed Chop Saw sneaker as a rough inspiration for their new design. Much like the line’s previous releases, the new design pushes the boundaries and is unlike anything you’ve seen. Far from your typical outdoor shoe, this new shoe is all about out-of-the-box construction and details. Filled with different materials and colors, these sneakers are not missing out on the trails.

Kith teams up with Clarks and Adidas for the ultimate winter collaboration

Kith, Clarks, and Adidas release new sneakers

Although Kith has already gifted us plenty of chic collaborations throughout the year, the holiday season brings out the brand’s best. For their Kithmas Holiday Collection, the brand is pairing up with two favorites for a stunning end-of-the-year treat. Along with Clarks and Adidas, Ronnie Fieg’s Kith is bringing out all the stops for one final collaboration for the year. While these brands are no strangers to working together, their latest collaborative sneaker takes a classic silhouette and gives it a modern upgrade to add a luxurious streetwear touch to your wardrobe. As with most of Kith’s collaborations in 2024, there’s no doubt this new partnership will sell out quickly.
Ronnie Fieg x Clarks x Adidas Gazelle, BW Army, and AS350

Once again taking on the Adidas Gazelle, Ronnie Fieg’s 8th Street by Clarks line gives the famed sneaker a unique twist. Along with the BW Army and AS350, these new models will include a cream-colored suede upper and the classic Adidas’ famed Three Stripes with a brown snakeskin finish. Each sneaker has cream-colored suede overlays and a crepe sole that distinguishes this collaboration. All three brands are included in the branding on the tongue and the inside heel. Along with these three new models, Kith has taken over the holidays with new collaborations each week to celebrate the season. All three models will be available on December 23rd, via Kith’s app, website, and stores. Fans of all three brands should act quickly as Kith’s collaborations tend to sell out faster than most. While we will likely see plenty more Kith collaborations next year, there’s no better way to round out this year than with three of your favorite brands in one.
