NIKE AIR FORCE 1 LOW 'RECYCLED'
The Nike Air Force 1 ’07’s newest release from Nike includes 2 new silhouettes from a “Recycled Pack”, that is made from at least 20% recycled materials including a Swoosh design made entirely from 100% recycled felt on the upper.
The sneaker pairs a retro hoops aesthetic and low profile style with recycled materials. The first release arrives primarily dressed in white with many of the leather panels forward and behind dressed in the same. The Swoosh opts for a greyed suede while the lateral is finished in the multicolored recycled wool material. The same suede material is also used once again at the tongue, and its grey black textures are branded over with slightly contrasted embroidery.
A complimentary second colorway is dressed in a light blue and off-white. This iteration comes in a similar build as the previously pair with an added 'Light Armory Blue' leather upper. The same recycled wool fabrics are displayed on the lateral Swoosh and tongues, while the medial and heel are done up in an off-white colored suede. A volt toned insole atop an off white rubber outsole to complete the designs.
Sizing: Women's Sizing 5.5 - 8.5 US
Price: $135 CAD
NEW BALANCE x JADEN SMITH - VISION RACER YELLOW
Doubling down on the bold design of the Vision Racer by New Balance and Jaden Smith, the latest iteration of the sneaker sees the application of a vivid hi-visibility yellow color. The Vision Racer combines aesthetics and features of Jaden's two favourite silhouettes - the 1700 and X-Racer. As part of New Balance's sustainability initiatives, the Vision Racer's construction features a variety of different recycled materials.
Seeing an upper made up of a combination of mesh and leather panels, the sneaker's bright yellow color is contrasted by hits of grey and white on the sides and midsole. The use of black on the heel clip, tongue tag, and piping text further highlights the unique lemon-colored sneaker. The Vision Racer is finished off with its signature translucent outsole, stamped with a large pink 'VISION' graphic.
