Love him or hate him, Kanye is helping Adidas make some noise

On Your Feet is all about that new shoe feeling- from the first time you open the box until they’re worn into the ground. Sometimes we’ll sift through the constant Air Jordan releases to bring you the gems other people will leave on the shelves, and sometimes we’ll slide on reclaimed leather loafers from Prague, but we’ll always focus on comfortable shoes with appealing and creative aesthetic. So lace up your new kicks and stand on the precipice of adventure, where will we go together?

If there’s one thing Kanye West does well, it’s making a lot of noise, and that’s just what he’s done by pairing up with the rocket ship that is Adidas Originals. While the first sneaker launch in their collection together, the Yeezy Boost 750 (the grey pair in the back of the picture below), made waves by being limited, the second launch is trying something different – releasing in greater numbers.

Let’s be clear, these shoes are going to sell out, and they’re going to sell out fast – like Watch the Throne tour tickets fast. While Adidas is no stranger to limited releases, or collaborations with musicians, the sheer magnitude of this release is a change from the norm for the sportswear brand. It’s normally easy to walk into an Adidas store and pick up any of the new releases, or re-released classic kicks and clothing.

The Yeezy Boost 350 is a low top shoe with a simple silhouette. The upper is composed of a single piece of textured, black and white graphic pattern, with matching patterned laces. A suede arch bears the YZY branding that’s now become a trademark of the collaboration with ‘Ye, and the outsole provides the Boost portion of the name, with a special ridged pattern on the outside edge and bottoms.

Whether or not your opinion of the Yeezy Boost 350 is affected by your love (or hatred) of Kanye, the Boost outsole is no gimmick. It feels like no other shoe you’ve owned, with a springy, spongy feel that’s designed for running, but is comfortable and supportive even in casual settings.

If you’re interested in picking up a pair of these coveted kicks, you can try one of the shops below which are all confirmed to be receiving an unknown number of pairs, as confirmed by sneakernews. You should know if you do try to pursue the release that many stores will be running raffles to keep things fair, so check ahead of time to make sure you can get in on the action.

Christian Louboutin elevates the men’s Chelsea boot with its Devon College
Christian Louboutin upgrades the Chelsea Boot for the winter

When it comes to luxury and heritage brands, none has the history quite like Christian Louboutin. The iconic red sole brand has certified its position among the most distinguishable of them all. Although Louboutin shoes have historically been associated with women’s footwear, the men’s collection doesn’t hold back either. Recently, the brand unveiled its latest Winter 2025 collection, featuring accessories and footwear for both men and women that elevate timeless silhouettes with iconic signature details from Louboutin. One of the collection’s most versatile and premium designs, the Devon College, highlights the ease of the brand’s creation process by revamping a classic boot design into a modern new shoe option. While the rest of the collection includes a vast amount of options for the winter season, the Devon College is undoubtedly the collection’s most favorable for men this season.

Christian Rich’s Cactus Flowers and L.G.R. team up again for a luxury limited-edition eyewear drop
A collab four times in the making

The new Christian Rich x L.G.R. capsule just landed, marking the fourth time the producers and the luxury eyewear brand have teamed up since 2014. When a collaboration has this much history, you know the connection between L.G.R founder Luca Gnecchi Ruscone and the Hassan twins (Taiwo and Kehinde) runs deep, built on mutual respect for craftsmanship.

If you aren't familiar with Christian Rich by name, you definitely know their production work with icons like Drake, Childish Gambino, J. Cole, and Pharrell Williams. They bring serious cultural cred, while L.G.R. brings undeniable luxury heritage. (Think of L.G.R. as "if you know, you know" luxury — spotted on figures like Prince William and featured heavily in The White Lotus).

Prada reintroduces the Toblach, a minimalist icon reborn
Prada brings back the Toblach, an archival favorite
prada toblach loafers

Just as with many luxury designers and houses, Prada’s history is full of archival designs that are ready to be reimagined. Focusing on Prada’s footwear for men, the fashion house has plenty of silhouettes to pick from that could easily become modern favorites. Now, Prada is taking from those archives and delivering to users fan-favorites that have been redone to meet contemporary needs and trends. The first of these archival revivals comes in the form of the Toblach. The Toblach was first introduced during the 1998 fall/winter collection and became one of the first formal sneakers to hit mainstream. A hybrid shoe ahead of its time, this elevated design got its form by taking inspiration from loafers and sailing-ready sneakers. In its newest form, the Toblach collection looks to bring back this hybrid style at a time when the trend seems only to become more popular.
