One of the best shoes ever made would have to be the Nike Dunk Low. This is a sneaker that was first developed in the 1980s, and since that time, it has turned into an absolute beast. Overall, it is a shoe with a silhouette that is hard to dislike. There is a lot of simplicity here, and this simplicity allows for a ton of versatility. Consequently, this is a shoe that has survived numerous decades and a whole bunch of trends. Even when this shoe is off-trend, there are still a bunch of fans out there ready to rock it, no matter what.
Throughout the past few years, the Nike Dunk Low has gone through a very impressive resurgence. Fans adore this shoe, and Nike has given those sneakerheads what they want thanks to an increase in new colorways. Although some feel like the shoe is being oversaturated, there are others who believe Nike isn’t doing enough. After all, stock levels seem to be quite low every time a new colorway is released. This keeps the hype train going, and for now, Nike is cashing in.

The toe box panel is pink, the side panel is yellow, the back is covered in blue, purple, and green, while light pink is found going up the laces.

Michael Jordan is someone who has won a lot of NBA Championships. Overall, he has six to his name, and they were all worn during the 1990s. If you hated the Chicago Bulls, then this was a bad time for you. However, if you loved Jordan and his team, then the 90s were a time of jubilation. Moreover, he also got to wear a ton of amazing sneakers during these years. In fact, some of his most iconic sneakers were produced during the years of his championships.
The shoes that Jordan won titles in are the Air Jordan 6, Jordan 7, Jordan 8, Jordan 11, Jordan 12, and even the Jordan 14. Although shoes like the Jordan 8 and Jordan 14 aren’t his most popular, they are still iconic thanks to his accomplishments. Now, Sotheby’s has all six of these iconic silhouettes in its possession. No, we are not talking about retros or retail pairs. We are talking about game-worn shoes that Jordan sported during his championship playoff runs.
This new set of shoes is being called The Dynasty Collection. There are six game-worn pairs in this collection, and overall, they are signed by Jordan himself. It is unknown which games Jordan wore these shoes in, however, it is known that they were a major part of his championships. Consequently, Sotheby’s is expecting this collection to fetch millions of dollars. This could even be their largest auction ever as these are some of the rarest collectibles in basketball history. For now, this is a private sale only, and as it stands, the collection is being put on display in Dubai. Subsequently, the shoes will travel to Hong Kong, and then Singapore.
For sneakerheads, this will be the opportunity of a lifetime. Although, you are going to need millions of dollars in liquid cash to even think about affording these Michael Jordan sneakers. It is definitely a disappointing fate for some, but that is life these days. Let us know what you think of the collection, down below.

The latest Foamposite to be revealed is this “Dream A World” offering which can be seen above and below. Overall, this is a unique color scheme that goes against the monochromatic versions some fans are used to. Firstly, the main color you see here is a light and cloudy blue. However, the upper is a mixture of colors that are mixed into a blurry glow. White, black, and light blue can all be found here, and it is hard to pinpoint the inspiration. Secondly, the overlays that go up the laces and the tongue are grey. This is then paired with grey and light blue laces.
If you are a fan of this shoe, you will be able to grab a pair as of Friday, March 3rd. Moreover, the sneaker is going to cost $250 USD.

If you were a fan of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, then you certainly saw a lot of the Air Jordan 5. Overall, the Jordan 5 became a huge pop culture icon thanks to the show. Moreover, it helps that the series came out the same year as the shoe. Sales of the shoe were helped out by Will Smith’s love of the Jordan 5, and Jumpman has always been grateful. In fact, over the years, we have seen various “Bel-Air” colorways. Furthermore, we have even gotten “laceless” AJ5’s which are yet another nod to Smith’s character.
Now, the series has been given new life thanks to a more dramatic interpretation of the story. The Peacock series Bel-Air is a retelling of Will’s story, but with less comedy. Just a couple of weeks ago, their second season had its premiere, and fans are enjoying what they are seeing. Additionally, it seems like Jumpman is still keeping its eye on the series. That is because they have created a new “Bel-Air” Air Jordan 5.

In the images above and below, you can see that this shoe has the iconic “Black Metallic” color scheme. This is one of the OG colorways of the Jordan 5, and fans have always loved it. Firstly, the shoe is covered in black suede. Secondly, the midsole is black with some silver shark teeth. Lastly, we get the silver 3M tongue with a red Jumpman logo in the middle. Interestingly enough, these shoes stick to the “Bel-Air” theme thanks to the laceless aesthetic.
It is important to note that this shoe is not going to be released to the public. In fact, only three pairs of this shoe have been created. However, one lucky person will be able to get one of the three pairs. NTWRK will be raffling a pair in a size 12, and all you have to do is pay $1 to enter. This draw will take place on Thursday, March 2nd during a live event that will happen between 9 PM and 11 PM EST. Let us know what you think of these, in the comments down below.
Macklemore is someone who has always showcased his love and appreciation for sneakers. Overall, he is a sneakerhead who has a specific attachment to Jumpman sneakers. After all, he had a song called “Wings” which was all about Nike and Jordan brand shoes. Over the years, Macklemore was able to develop a relationship with Jordan Brand, and by extension, Michael Jordan himself. In fact, the artist was even able to get a few Air Jordan 6 PEs that are still talked about, to this day.
One such PE is the Air Jordan 6 “Clay.” This sneaker is known for its pink suede upper which resembles some clay. Moreover, this shoe had a black shark on the back heel which tied in with the Macklemore aesthetic. This is a sneaker that was only given 46 pairs. Interestingly enough, the artist has 23, while Michael Jordan has the other half. Now, the Seattle native is looking to give away a couple of pairs as a way to promote his new album Benwhich is set to drop on March 3rd.
In the Instagram video above, the artist gives his fans the rules in terms of entering the contest. Essentially, they just have to pre-save the album and then share it. If they do this, then they will be automatically entered into the draw. Overall, these kicks are worth a whole lot of money, so if you love shoes and want to add them to your collection, then these are obviously a great option.

One of the best basketball shoes of the last year has been the Nike LeBron 20. Overall, this is an incredible offering that is definitely bringing back the low-top aesthetics that James’ sneakers used to have.

Beyoncé is easily one of the biggest artists in the entire world. Overall, she is one of the most beloved artists of this entire generation. The artist is seen as a fantastic performer who also puts out phenomenal albums. In the eyes of many, she simply cannot do wrong. Her latest body of work Renaissance was a massive success, and her supporters are already looking forward to the next project. Considering how Beyoncé is always changing her sound and reinventing herself, we’re sure we can expect something truly unique.
Additionally, the artist is always trying to expand her brand outside of music. One way she has done that is through her Ivy Park brand with Adidas. This is a brand that came out just a few years ago after numerous meetings with various other sportswear companies. In the end, she chose Adidas because it reportedly aligned the most with her goals and her beliefs. However, it seems as though Ivy Park hasn’t been the success that Adidas was hoping for. This news comes from Rex Woodbury, who is a business writer and investor.
Beyoncé x Ivy Park Struggles
More celebrity brands are failing.
Adidas is set to lose $200M on Beyoncé’s Ivy Park this year. That’s on top of a $1.3B loss from Yeezy.
What went wrong? In order to work, a celeb brand needs to get three things right: pic.twitter.com/Orif1kdZt8
In the tweets above, you can see that Woodbury details how Beyoncé’s athleisure brand lost Adidas about $200 million in 2022. This is because the brand thought that it would sell upwards of $250 million. Although, the brand actually only did about $40 million in sales. These are horrific numbers for the brand, which is set to lose $1.3 billion thanks to the likes of Kanye West. Overall, many are chalking up these numbers to the fact that Beyoncé isn’t someone who has ever sported athleisure. Simply put, this was never a good fit.
Regardless, it seems as though Adidas and Ivy Park still have plans for future releases. After all, the two are currently under contract, and it would be an admission of defeat for either side to call it quits. However, it is clear that the two will need to change their marketing strategies, moving forward. Let us know what you think about these numbers, down below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from around the streetwear world.
MSCHF, which is Mischief without the vowels, is an art collective based out of New York City. The collective has a long-standing history of trolling consumer culture, specifically by selling consumer goods. Known for such releases as the shoe collaboration with Lil Nas X, and the Nike Satan Shoes. Which allegedly were made with real human blood. As well as Jimmy Fallon’s Gobstomper sneakers last summer, which were, “designed to be destroyed.” A few months later, they put out a medical boot. Why? The project was described as an homage to the fact that “industries with little to no regard for aesthetics designing objects for utilitarian purposes churn out bangers like no one else.”
To add to their long line of consumer products for consumerism’s sake they have released items such as a MSCHF defibrillator “to fix your literal broken heart.” As well as a collection of AI-generated foot pics. With the tagline “this foot does not exist.” The collective has even gone so far as to have made Birkenstocks out of Birkin Bags, sold a box of cereal containing one big Fruit Loop, and created an ATM leaderboard that tracks and ranks the checking account balance of anyone who uses it. As of December 2022, Diplo was No. 1 with $3,004,913.06.
The Big Red Boots Are Unveiled

On February 16th, the brand released its latest product. A shoe destined to go viral: MSCHF’s big red boots, aptly named the Big Red Boot. They are made of TPU rubber and an EVA mid-outsole and take design cues from a video game. A press release for the shoe read, “Cartoonishness is an abstraction that frees us from the constraints of reality,” the release continued, “If you kick someone in these boots, they go boing!” The artist collective known for its subversive creations, stated, “Big red boots are really not shaped like feet, but they are extremely shaped like boots.”
Each boot weighs about three and a half pounds bringing the total weight for the pair to a whopping seven pounds. Even more astounding than the weight of the boots, was the rollout of the shoes. Leading up to New York Fashion Week, they were spotted everywhere among a multitude of celebrities. From Instagram models and TikTok grandpas to the Barclays center during Coi Leray’s halftime show. Photos of artist Diplo emerged wearing the Big Red Boots at a Knicks game. They were even spotted on WWE’s Seth Rollins, as he kicked another wrestler in the face while wearing the Big Red Boots. Basketball player Shai Gilgeous-Alexander wore them to the arena before a game and even Janelle Monae wore them to shoot hoops.
Once NYFW began, the boots became the new “it” accessory. Not surprisingly of course. Brands typically give celebrities and models articles of specific clothing and/or accessories to wear, as a marketing technique. MSCHF was no different with their Big Red Boots. They were spotted by celebrities and street style stars all over Fashion Week. Street-style photographer Phil Oh captured them on various stars. American singer/songwriter Dorian Electra styled them with a graphic coat, and mini skirt to fully show the shoes and donned a matching beret. Model Sarah Snyder paired the boots with a glossy red skirt and white tights; TikTok star and model Wisdom Kaye decided to style them with athletic shorts. No matter how they were worn the statement boots were styled to be the focal point.
Though the boots are rather unusual and even more impractical to wear, it’s been quite interesting to see how quickly the world was taken by storm by them. Upon being released on the 16th of February, the Big Red Boots were sold out in minutes. Leading to the site crashing shortly thereafter. Upon selling out, they were then listed on resale sites ranging between $1,200 and $1,500. Almost quadruple the original selling price of $350. The debate on the shoes has been as interesting as the shoes themselves. Some say the brand, and specifically the boots, are a social experiment–slash–experiential art project. While many others still have said the real art is the whole spectacle of releasing such a shoe. The reaction to the boots, the reaction to that reaction, the realization that it’s not just about boots, and the simultaneous truth that they are, in fact, just boots.
MSCHF as a collective seems to continuously roll out products that raise eyebrows. They have an interesting and complex understanding of how consumerism and over-saturation seemingly go hand in hand these days. This was made overtly apparent in the case of the Big Red Boots. While the MSCHF may appear cartoonish, the art collective is entirely serious about its release. In an interview with the New York Times, they rejected the idea that the boots were a joke. “It’s not a satire,” MSCHF said in a statement to The New York Times, after declining to be interviewed. “But what’s interesting is that we’re at a moment in time where it doesn’t have to be.”
With the Air Jordan 37 seeing a ton of success, it was only a matter of time before the Air Jordan 37 Low became a thing. Over the years, Jumpman has always created a low-top version of its signature MJ silhouette. Overall, fans have been fairly split between these two models. On one hand, you have the fans who like the high-tops. However, the other hand has everyone who prefers something that is a bit lower on their ankles. Both of these approaches and preferences are equally valid.
With that being said, Jumpman is giving just a bit more attention to the low-top variation as it is much newer. Subsequently, we are starting to see new colorways of the Air Jordan 37 Low. There are plenty of cool teasers being shown off, as well as some official images. For hoopers, this is definitely good news as they will have some new options just in time for the playoffs. First up is this “Team Red” model which is a women’s exclusive.
If you are familiar with Nike and Jordan Brand’s previous work, you know that “Team Red” is a motif we have seen a lot of in the past. That said, this latest shoe looks amazing. It is covered in bright red hues, and these are meant to pop on the court. Firstly, you can see the side panels and overlays get a nice bright red that really stands out. Secondly, the toe box up through to the tongue is burgundy. These two shades contrast well with one another and it also looks great with the beige midsole that brings the look together.
For those who like these, you will be able to grab them as of March 8th. The retail price for this offering has been set at $175 USD. Let us know what you think of these shoes, down in the comments below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the sneaker world. We will always keep you informed on all things related to shoes.
One of the best sneakers ever created is the Nike Air Force 1 Low. Even if you aren’t a sneakerhead, you know of this shoe. Overall, it was created back in 1982 and was the first Nike shoe to get a retro. Subsequently, it became a staple of everyone’s sneaker closet. It is just an incredibly versatile shoe that can do it all. Moreover, there are plenty of iconic versions of this shoe, including the triple-white and triple-black offerings. No matter what, this shoe will always be an icon.
Last year, the AF1 celebrated its 40th anniversary. This was huge for a multitude of reasons. Of course, Nike decided to celebrate this massive anniversary with a plethora of great colorways. Although there were quite a few retros to release, the Beaverton brand also made time for some new offerings. Fans are always looking for the next great thing, and Nike certainly tried their best to offer that. Now, in 2023, Nike has plans for a whole lot more in the Air Force 1 Low department.

Above and below, you can find the Nike Air Force 1 Low “Orange Streaks.” That is by no means the official name of the shoe, however, that is what some publications are calling it. Once again, Nike has come through with a beautiful, clean model that will get fans excited. Firstly, this shoe is covered from head to toe with white materials. From leather overlays to canvas side panels, this sneaker has nice textures. Moreover, the Nike swoosh is orange with some white paintbrush streaks. This is an aesthetic that can also be found on the back heel tab and the tongue.
As it stands, this shoe does not have a release date. However, you can expect to get them soon for a price of $130 USD. If you do not like these, then you can be sure to see more of these drop over the coming months. Let us know what you think of the latest Nike Air Force 1 Low, down below.
