Without a major drop from Nike or Jordan Brand hoarding everyone’s attention this week, it’s a perfect opportunity to take a closer look at some of the great products that other brands have to offer up.
Some highlights this week include a pair of Adidas inspired by Yu-Gi-Oh! complete with a limited edition trading card, the latest from Teddy Santis’ tenure with New Balance, super limited pairs of Puma Clydes by End Clothing, Brain Dead’s take on a pair of Asics from the 2000s, Extra Butter’s Diadora S8000 inspired by ‘70s Italian horror films, and more.

What You Need to Know: Brain Dead’s latest sneaker collab sees it present two colorways of the Asics Gel Nimbus 9. The “Rio Red” option is the more vibrant of the two, which outfits the performance running model from 2007 in a mix of red, light blue, orange, and green. The “Nigh Shade” colorway opts for a much more simplistic black upper with dark green accents, minimal neon green hits, and a gum sole. Co-branded tongues and insoles complete each pair.
