Okay, so the adidas Originals Pet Collection for Fall 2025 is finally coming to Japan! It already dropped in China, but I’m super excited we’re getting it here too. I’ve been waiting for this!

Ryder Ripps, a conceptual artist, and his colleague Jeremy Cahen have settled their legal dispute with Yuga Labs, the company behind the popular Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) NFTs. This brings a definitive end to a trademark infringement lawsuit that began in 2022. Ripps and Cahen had created their own collection, RR/BAYC, using the same images as the original Bored Apes, claiming it was a form of protected artistic satire. While they argued their project was a First Amendment-protected artwork, a court initially sided with Yuga Labs, finding that the similar artwork caused confusion among consumers.

Jordan Brand is bringing back the Air Jordan 10 Retro “Red Steel” in Spring 2027, a shoe originally released in 2005 for $125. As reported by SneakerFiles, this marks the first time the colorway has been re-released after a 22-year wait. While not as popular as some classic Air Jordan colors in the past, the Red Steel has become highly sought after by collectors due to its rarity, making it difficult to find and expensive on resale markets.

VA, a design studio from Tokyo, has partnered with adidas Originals to reimagine the VA SUPERSTAN shoe. This new version combines elements of two classic adidas designs, updating a once-limited edition shoe with a modern and polished look.

As a huge fan of both Epic Games and Disney, I’m completely blown away by this news! It sounds like they’re going all-in on a brand new game – a sort of squad-based shooter where you’re fighting to escape with characters from Disney’s most famous franchises. Apparently, Epic is investing a massive $1.5 billion in this thing! I’ve heard whispers that the game isn’t totally groundbreaking in terms of gameplay, but it’s still the main focus of their collaboration. In fact, they’ve even moved people off another project Disney wasn’t thrilled with the pace of, so they’re clearly serious about making this a hit. I can’t wait to see what they come up with!

Okay, so Nike just dropped the ACG Pegasus Trail, and honestly, it’s a game-changer for me. I usually switch shoes when I go from road running to trails, but this one feels good on both. It’s built for those trails that aren’t super crazy technical, but still need some grip and durability. Basically, it’s the perfect blend of a fast road shoe and something that can handle a bit of off-road action. It’s like they finally bridged the gap!

adidas Originals is adding to its collection of everyday accessories with the new Digital Two Ring. Inspired by the look of ’80s digital watches, this compact ring combines style and practicality, offering a unique way to tell time while blending street fashion with wearable jewelry.
