This Week’s Notable Drops

Comme des Garçons Homme Plus x Air Jordan 11 (Black and White)

This one has been a slow burn since Paris Fashion Week in January, but the wait is over. CDG Homme Plus and Jordan Brand are releasing both their black and white Air Jordan 11 colorways, each built on premium cowhide leather that strips the silhouette down to something closer to a fine dress shoe than a basketball sneaker. The collaboration officially retails for $358 USD and drops September 5, 2026, with Dover Street Market among the confirmed destinations.

adidas Badbo 1.1 (Chalk White / Grey / Soft Pink)

Bad Bunny’s Badbo line is expanding, and this next chapter cuts the silhouette low. The Badbo 1.1 in Chalk White, Grey, and Soft Pink does more than just shorten the ankle, signaling that Benito and adidas are treating this like a full signature franchise rather than a one-off moment. A release date is unconfirmed in the available signals, but the colorway has been officially revealed.

MoMA x Nike Air Rift 2 Pack

MoMA and Nike are back for Fall 2026 with a two-pair pack of the Air Rift 2, the split-toe runner that never quite got its mainstream due the first time around. The two colorways are Black/Cyber/Dark Powder Blue/Light Fuchsia and Hyper Verde/Cyber/Light Fuchsia, bright gallery-ready combinations that lean into the museum’s curatorial instincts. Both pairs are priced at $130 USD, with a release window of Fall 2026, though a firm date is not confirmed in the available signals.

Pharrell x adidas VIRGINIA Watermoc Pack

After a tease in May and a closer preview in August, Pharrell’s VIRGINIA Watermoc Pack is finally getting its proper moment. The collection releases September 5, 2026, through adidas at $140 USD. The VIRGINIA silhouette has been one of Pharrell’s quieter adidas moves, and this pack appears to be the most complete look at it yet.

New Balance 983

New Balance is introducing an entirely new silhouette with the 983, a lifestyle model that synthesizes the brand’s early-2000s running archive into something built for right now rather than strict nostalgia. The debut colorway is Shadow Blue/Zinc Blue, SKU U9835DU, priced at $160 USD, with a release date of October 1 through New Balance. Coco Gauff and Amine are attached to the campaign, which suggests NB is positioning this as a serious cultural release and not just a catalog addition.

Nike GT Cut 4 “Sunset”

The GT Cut 4 is heading into fall with a “Sunset” colorway that runs yellow to orange to black, and yes, it absolutely reads like Halloween candy corn whether Nike intended that or not. The shoe is confirmed for a September 16, 2026, release. Multiple outlets have flagged this one, and the seasonal color story is hard to ignore.

Larry June x adidas Adistar Control 5

Larry June’s adidas collab started as something that felt like it might stay close to home, but it is now getting a proper retail release. The Adistar Control 5 collaboration drops September 12, 2026, giving a wider audience access to a shoe the Bay Area rapper first revealed back in February.

Madhappy x Puma Collection (Suede and H-Street)

The Madhappy and Puma partnership is moving past the Speedcat with two new silhouettes: the Suede and the H-Street. Three pairs release September 5, 2026, including a Suede in Matte Bronze that looks deliberately understated compared to the brighter Speedcat releases. A release date confirmation comes directly from the source signal.

Civil x New Balance Numeric 480

Rhode Island skate shop Civil has built its New Balance Numeric 480 collaboration around the quahog clam, one of New England’s most recognizable coastal symbols. The approach ties the skate-rooted silhouette to the shop’s regional identity in a way that feels earned rather than decorative. A release date is unconfirmed in the available signals.

Albino & Preto x atmos x ASICS GEL-Kayano 12

Three-way collabs can go either way, but this one has a clear visual identity: Black/Safety Yellow and White/Safety Yellow, two GEL-Kayano 12 colorways that channel volt energy across a silhouette that has been having a real moment. The Black colorway released September 4, with the White following online September 5, through JJCON and Albino & Preto. Pricing is unconfirmed in the available signals.

Simone Rocha x adidas Collection

Simone Rocha and adidas Originals are bringing their London Fashion Week project to retail, covering five silhouettes across the Japan, Taekwondo Ballerina, and Climacool. Pearls, ribbons, lace, and jeweled details carry across the lineup, making this one of the more dressed-up adidas footwear moments of the season. A specific release date is unconfirmed in the available signals.

Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse x Air Jordan 1 High OG

Jordan Brand is continuing its Marvel run with another Spider-Man Air Jordan 1, this time tied to Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse. The film arrives June 18 and the shoe is expected to release around the same time in Summer 2027. It is very early, but the franchise track record means this one is worth noting now.

mfpen x New Balance Made in UK 991v1

Danish label mfpen and New Balance kept this one tight: just 90 pairs, built from surplus materials at New Balance’s Flimby factory in the UK, with a hand-debossed “N” logo that quietly signals the craft behind it. The pair released September 3. If you missed it, this is more of a culture note than a buy alert at this point.

Nike Air Force 1 Low “Campfire Orange”

Nike is leaning into the seasonal shift with an Air Force 1 Low in a Black, White, and Campfire Orange combination that is exactly what it sounds like: a fall-ready AF1 that does not require much explaining. A specific release date is unconfirmed in the available signals.

Nike Air Diamond Turf 2 “49ers”

The Deion Sanders-linked Diamond Turf 2 is back, this time in San Francisco 49ers colors and now available at retail. A confirmed store list is live, which means this one is already on shelves for anyone who wants to tap into the Deion resurgence without the resale markup.

adidas Dame X “Meet the Moment”

Damian Lillard’s return to Portland has a sneaker attached to it. The Dame X “Meet the Moment” colorway is positioned as a homecoming release, with adidas timing it to Lillard’s comeback narrative. Specific pricing and a drop date are unconfirmed in the available signals.

Jordan Design Studio Winner: Syn Zhuang’s Air Jordan 1 Reimagining

Jordan Brand ran its inaugural Jordan Design Studio program and Beijing designer Syn Zhuang came out on top. Her winning Air Jordan 1 redesign features a transformable suede collar and a softer toe box, with a women-focused perspective that brings a different point of view to one of the most-reworked silhouettes in sneaker history. No retail release details are confirmed in the available signals.
