Nike SB x Ueno – It’s been a while since Nike SB released a must-have dunk, but things might be changing if this special release with Japan’s Ueno is any indication. This is the third collaborative model between Ueno and Nike SB, and they’re releasing a special make-up of the classic Dunk Low. This time it’s not just a colorway update, but a textile one too. This “Panda” dunk has uppers made from the same plush material found on your favorite stuffed animal. Using a monotone black and white colorway, the fuzzy uppers are a distant reminder of the previous “Three Bears” pack. Unfortunately, this release is a double whammy for US sneakerheads because it’s exclusive to Japan, and is only available in women’s sizes.

Shinola Detroit Arrow – Shinola has just announced the release of their first luxury, single-speed bicycle. That might sound like an oxymoron, but I swear it’s not. These guys from Detroit are using premium double-butted CroMo for the frame and having the bike hand-assembled by Waterford Precision Cycles. And while most would think twice about spending $1,000 on a single speed, the craftsmanship does speak for itself and products proudly made in the USA always deserves a bit more attention.

Ronnie Fieg x PUMA RF698 “Sakura” – Ronnie Fieg has a way with coloring a sneaker, and accenting certain silhouettes is his forte. The latest to get his touch is PUMA’s RF698. Using a similar gradient found on the newly introduced RF698 Mid, this colorway slowly transitions from a deep violet, in the toebox, to a soft pink hue at the heel. The hard to soft fade is done impeccably, and this latest edition has been aptly dubbed “Sakura.” Look for this special edition to arrive with complimentary white rounded laces Friday. March 20.
