In this reiteration, the Bondi 8 Caged is crafted with a dark colorway composed of a grid textile with a translucent film cage. The umber and deep umber color combinations allow a more nature-inspired look that gives the design more ruggedness and edge. Reflective details on the back heel help users who enjoy taking a walk at night. Made with ultra-lightweight foam and carbon plates, the sneaker gives plenty of comfort and cushion. The extra thick mixed pellet camo outsole provides more padding and a stylish street-style look.

In an era where more brands are seeking out celebrity co-designers, like Bad Bunny’s partnership with Adidas, it’s Salomon’s turn for their moment in the spotlight. Previously teased during his set at Governor’s Ball, Colombian singer and record producer Feid has finally given fans a glimpse into the new Salomon XT-Pathway. Once again, sporting the unreleased sneaker during his set at Hard Summer Festival, Feid’s collaborative design with Salomon is a statement and eye-catching. The design was not only worn on stage during the set, but also via social media, where the singer met up with rapper Snoop Dogg, who also sported a Family & Friends version of the same Salomon XT-Pathway sneaker. While Snoop Dogg’s version is unlikely to see a release, it’s Feid’s version that seems to have caught everyone’s attention.

While many of PUMA’s recent viral releases have come from in-house projects that involve remixing their archival designs, that doesn’t mean PUMA has forgotten about one of its most exciting long-standing partnerships in recent times. Since 2014, singer-songwriter and businesswoman Rihanna has partnered with athletic brand PUMA in different capacities for new collaborations and releases. In 2016, Rihanna’s FENTY brand debuted its first collaborative collection with PUMA, marking the start of a lengthy partnership that’s brought several must-have pieces and footwear. Through various collaborations, the partnership between FENTY and PUMA has evolved into a staple for the brand. In their newest release, the duo is taking it back to one of their most famed sneakers, the Avanti, for a sleek and slimmed-down shoe that’s perfect for the trends of the summer.
