and more!
STUSSY + NIKE
Probably one of the hottest releases this week. The newest Stussy x Nike collection is really good. I implore you check out the full lookbook here to get a better idea of the colorways and the items that are dropping later today.
Below are some of my favorites:
While all eyes are on the Baltoro boot, I would definitely not skip out on the clothing from this collection—favorites have to be the track pants and the fleeces specifically!
The collection will release globally on the Stussy website at 10 am your local time later today, October 10th.
A RESTOCK WE NEEDED
The coveted Merrell Moab 2 Woven slide has returned in a surprise restock. A really great hybrid that’s perfect for fall. Full-grain leather upper is going to age like butter. The fact that Merrell offers their shoes all the way up to size 15 is also something that we need to celebrate more. Not a lot of brands out there supplying such large size runs.
Can’t forget to mention the great level of comfortability that 1TRL line offers out of the box, and the Woven Slides are not going to be any different. Definitely a shoe that’s not going to sit online for long, so make sure you take advantage of this restock before it’s too late.
I would recommend going with your true size on these!
While we are on the topic of Merrell… Let’s talk about this shoe I randomly discovered while browsing the Woven slide restock. I just recently wrote about how you should invest in a proper pair of leather shoes, so it’s natural that my eyes are gravitating towards the World Legend 2 Remat.
Merrell is known for their comfort, durability, huge size runs, and most importantly, their very attractive price points. The World Legend 2 Remat is only $140. For a leather shoe that’s built around comfort is a very great price. It also comes in a wider toe box style, which will gives additional room for your foot for added comfortability.
THE ONLY BOOT THAT MATTERS THIS FALL
Boot research is well underway for the season. I’m quietly working away on the updated version of the highly anticipated Boot Report which I drop every year—you can read the last Boot Report here, and stay tuned for this years edition.
Until then, there are boots that have come across my desk that I can’t help but talk about early.
