5. J Balvin x Air Jordan 3 “Rio”

Retail Price: $250

Release Date: Summer 2024

Set to come this summer, J Balvin’s fourth collaboration with Jordan Brand sees the Air Jordan 3 debut in a fresh and exclusive colourway called “Rio.” This latest venture follows the Colombian singer’s initial partnership with the brand in December 2020, which introduced the colourful Air Jordan 1 “Colores Y Vibras.” The collaboration continued with the Air Jordan 2 in 2022, and the Air Jordan 3 “Medellín Sunset” in 2023. This upcoming version of the Air Jordan 3 is a sophisticated black model, featuring a striking color combination of black, solar flare, and total crimson abyss. The shoe’s design is grounded in an all-black leather base, accented with grey elephant print overlays at the toe and heel. Standout features include a multi-colour gradient on the midsole and translucent heel tabs, adorned with J Balvin’s signature logo. These unique design elements connect the shoe to his son Rio, making it a personal and stylish addition to the Air Jordan line.

4. Clot X Adidas Superstar ‘Cloud White

As the previous year drew to a close, Hong Kong’s Clot made headlines by announcing its departure from a long-standing partnership with Nike, embarking on a journey to explore new creative avenues. This bold move has culminated in the unveiling of an intriguing collaboration: the Clot x Adidas Superstar ‘Cloud White.’ This unique creation blurs the lines between classic sneaker design and traditional brogue styling, offering a versatile piece that’s as innovative as it is stylish. In celebration of Clot’s 20th anniversary, this reinvention of the iconic Superstar stands out from its predecessors, a notable achievement given the design’s enduring presence since the 1950s. The ‘Cloud White’ iteration is crafted from a higher-grade leather that elevates its look beyond the usual Superstar models, paired strikingly with ‘Core Black’ Adidas stripes adorning the sides.
