The Nike SB Dunk has been having quite the renaissance over the past year. While the storied skate shoe has seen a plurality of wild colorways this newest collab with Berlin-based skate shop Civilist may be one of the most striking colorways yet.

Thanks to first looks from ovrnundr.io and magic_tarantino we get a glimpse at what could be one of the most hyped colorways in a while, the shoe seems to be a standard black Dunk with a white midsole and black outsole but when heat hits the shoe a Doppler radar-esque pattern is revealed. The heat-activated upper is paired with red, blue, yellow, and orange laces to perfectly match the eye-popping colorway and a Civilist tag appears on the lateral swoosh to round out the design. A matching heat map is found on the shoe’s insole as well as Civilist branding. 

Stay tuned for more release info on these upcoming kicks.

J. Cole x PUMA RS-Dreamer is here

J. Cole x PUMA RS-Dreamer is here

NBA

by | Jul 31, 2020 | NBA, Sneaker Releases, Sneakers

After joining forces in February, Fayetteville rapper J.Cole and legendary sneaker brand PUMA are poised to release the rapper’s debut basketball sneaker. Entitled the RS-Dreamer, the silhouette is testament to perseverance and hard work. First spotted in a more muted black and white colorway during the 2020 NBA All-Star weekend, the Dreamville MC’s kicks have since been spotted on PUMA hoopers like Danny Green and Kyle Kuzma in the NBA bubble. Since PUMA’s return to basketball courts, PUMA has been snatching up stars left and right and with the RS-Dreamer PUMA has completely revitalized their basketball line. 

Design-wise, the silhouette sports a low-profile cut with a mesh upper construction. Hints of suede pop on the forefoot and near the ankle. Exposed stitching on the midfoot connects to a cord lacing system that wraps around the heel held down by a series of reflective loops. Reflective hints also appear on the heel tab and near the suede forefoot overlay. Though the reflective portions themselves are enough to turn heads, the RS foam midsole is the real draw, the colorful and curved midsole features textured portions and splashes of yellow, red, purple, and mint. Cole’s Dreamer logo appears on the heel to finish off this new silhouette. 

The PUMA RS-Dreamer launches on 7/31 for $125. Catch it on puma.com
