New Balance and Joe Freshgoods unveil “Inside Clothes,” a campaign announcing the arrival of the New Balance x Joe Freshgoods 90/60, as a follow-up to “Outside Clothes,” which debuted in August 2021. The Joe Freshgoods 90/60 will be available exclusively on May 13th and globally, commencing May 30th, for a suggested retail price of $180 as the brand’s latest performance and running-inspired lifestyle silhouette.
The 90/60 model incorporates technology from the 990 series and early Millenium running shapes. The 90/60 takes traditional components like the diamond shape and N detail and applies a modern approach to the new look, staying loyal to the 990 legacy. Robinson, who is known for his exquisite use of color, used soft nude and sky blue colors to evoke the warmth of Black homes.
“Inside Voices is the follow up of Outside Clothes, I want my community to feel represented in the emotions and intimate moments captured in my campaigns,” said Joe “Freshgoods” Robinson. “There’s nothing like warmth and laughter shared around a table once you’re inside with your loved ones. Shutting out the world and focusing on what really matters is what this campaign is about.”

“I’m consistently inspired and impressed by PATRÓN. I loved working with them last year on our streetwear collection and this is another collaboration truly driven by passion,” said John Geiger, designer. “It was only fitting to go bigger and better for Cinco de Mayo with an epic sneaker drop that takes the designs we created with them last year to the next level. I was really inspired by the green that you’ll see in the leather detailing, evocative of the heart of PATRÓN, the agave pinas from the fields in Jalisco, Mexico.”

PATRÓN offers a versatile touch to every Cinco de Mayo celebration, whatever drink you select, from the smooth and sweet flavor of PATRÓN Silver in the Perfect Margarita to the complex flavors of PATRÓN Reposado in the Perfect Paloma.

Reebok is set to release the Shaqnosis “Athlete’s Choice,” which is inspired by Shaq’s “Big Aristotle” alias and ancient Greece. The sneaker will release exclusively on Reebok.com on April 8 at $150.
Shaq earned the moniker “Big Aristotle” after his MVP campaign in 2000. The Shaqnosis “Athlete’s Choice” design draws inspiration from classic Aristotle artworks, sculptures, and ancient Greek culture through texture, substance, and color.
The sneaker has a marble base inspired by statues and sculptures, with desaturated color and contrast comparable to antique paintings. Natural fibers on the upper body are reminiscent of Ancient Greek clothing and robes. The purple heel is a nod to the color purple, which in Ancient Greece was associated with social status and wealth.
The first-known ideas of color were developed by Aristotle. Colors were assigned to earth, fire, wind, and water, and he proposed that all color originated with white and black.
