SummaryNike just announced the Air Liquid Max as this year’s signature Air Max Day modelThe shoe features a contoured, point-loaded Air unit and a sleek upper with three-layer textured printingLook out for it to drop on Air Max Day (March 26) at an expected price of $230 USDIntroducing the Nike Air Liquid Max, the next chapter of Air’s legacy. Teased by Yeat in a music video a couple of weeks ago, we speculated as to whether this could be the signature Air Max Day model for 2026. Now, following Hiroshi Fujiwara’s fragment design collab reveal, the Swoosh has officially announced the silhouette.When designing the Air Liquid Max, Nike designers enlisted a less-is-more approach to each element. For the Air unit, the key was replicating the feeling of walking on air as best as possible. This is accomplished thanks to the contoured Air unit, which is both flexible and low to the ground by design. Point-loaded Air distribution ensures it’s only present where needed. As a result, negative space is present, creating unique geometry for the tooling and a lighter build.As for the upper, its futuristic mesh upper features a three-layer textured printing that not only adds visual depth, but provides support as well. This tactile component nods to the poison dart frog via its nanoprint. The dangerous amphibian is known to use color as a warning system, which is conveyed through the intricate pattern. Its launch colorway embraces striking greens atop a black base, combining with chrome Swooshes and a tinted, translucent outsole.Get ready, the Nike Air Liquid Max is set to debut on shelves this Air Max Day (March 26) via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at an expected starting price of $230 USD. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Nike Sportswear (@nikesportswear)Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

Name: Nike LeBron 23 “Masked Menace”Colorway: Black/BlackSKU: IH1513-004MSRP: $210 USDRelease Date: March 24, 2026Where to Buy: NikeFew moments in modern NBA history look quite as distinctly intimidating as LeBron James dominating the hardwood while wearing a stealthy, black carbon-fiber face mask. Now, over a decade after that iconic visual was burned into the memories of basketball fans everywhere, Nike is officially pulling that mythology forward. Celebrating one of the most memorable chapters of his dominant Miami Heat era, the brand has officially unveiled the upcoming Nike LeBron 23 “Masked Menace.”The inspiration traces directly back to a hostile February 2014 night at Madison Square Garden. Recovering from a fractured nose, James took the court against the New York Knicks sporting a menacing, villain-esque black protective mask. Delivering a performance marked by surgical efficiency and unmistakable intensity—dropping 31 points on the night—the “Masked LeBron” legend was born.Rather than creating a loud, vibrant sneaker to honor the moment, Nike took a highly restrained, concept-driven approach for the LeBron 23. Built almost entirely in black, the shoe reads less like a standard colorway and more like an intense material study. The upper is constructed from an engineered mesh base, layered with striking, glossy carbon-fiber-style panels that directly echo the protective mask James wore that night.To keep the silhouette looking aggressively sleek without feeling over-designed, the sneaker features a sculpted heel geometry and an all-black rubber outsole. Small, subtle metallic hits on the lace hardware provide just the right amount of contrast against the shadowy, monochromatic canvas. Extending the storytelling beyond just the footwear, Nike is also releasing a matching “Masked Menace” T-shirt. The apparel features a masked LeBron graphic on the chest and treats the 2014 game as part of a broader timeline, listing key dates and cities from his historic career on the back.The Nike LeBron 23 “Masked Menace” is officially scheduled to release on March 24, 2026, via Nike.com and select Nike Basketball retailers.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

Tonal embroidered flame-like graphics across the upper offer a textured, layered look while maintaining a clean design. These unique visual details separate the pair from standard inline releases.Deep green leather Swooshes and matching overlays along the heel and collar contrast the neutral base. Paired with a creamy midsole and a rich burgundy red outsole, the specific color palette directly channels the Mexican flag, bringing the cultural inspiration into focus.Additional branding elements further define the thematic execution. The heel features a pink oval Nike logo on one shoe, while the other proudly reads “El Tiempo F.C.” in stylized lettering. The tongue tags maintain the classic green theme, and the insoles conceal the Spanish phrase “Sabes lo que se juega,” adding a hidden layer of cultural resonance to the design.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

SummaryAction Bronson was recently spotted sitting courtside at a Los Angeles Lakers vs. New York Knicks game, debuting a brand new New Balance silhouette currently dubbed the “2811”Expanding his highly successful “Baklava” collaborative line, the unreleased sneaker features familiar New Balance tooling paired with aggressive new synthetic overlaysWhile no official release date or pricing has been announced, the stealthy black, grey, and orange colorway is heavily rumored to launch alongside other iterations in late 2026Action Bronson’s collaborative hot streak with New Balance shows absolutely no signs of slowing down. Over the weekend, while sitting courtside next to comedy legend Martin Lawrence at the Crypto.com Arena for the Lakers vs. Knicks game, the rapper and culinary aficionado casually debuted his latest footwear project. Expanding on his wildly successful “Baklava” footwear universe, Bronson offered fans a first look at what appears to be an entirely new silhouette, currently being referred to as the New Balance 2811.While information regarding the fresh New Balance model remains scarce, eagle-eyed fans were able to pull plenty of details from the courtside photos. The shoe appears to be built on the same reliable tooling as the recently introduced New Balance 2010. However, the upper is where Bronson takes some serious design liberties. The sneaker boasts a classic mesh base heavily layered with aggressive synthetic support panels that swoop across the shoe, including a distinct, pointy “M” shape extending across the toebox. Most importantly, the tongue prominently features the number “2811” in a large font alongside the signature Baklava branding.During the Lakers game, Bronson rocked one of his darkest colorways to date, sporting a stealthy black mesh base layered with steely grey support panels and bright orange “N” logos to complete the look. Dedicated fans might recognize the silhouette, as Bronson previously debuted a different iteration of the same model last month at Madison Square Garden. That initial pair leaned heavily into his hometown Knicks fandom, utilizing a black mesh base with blue support panels and orange side logos.The upcoming 2811 silhouette marks the latest chapter in a highly celebrated partnership that has already delivered heavy-hitting takes on the 990v6, the Minimus Trail, the 1906R, and the recent Abzorb 1890. Given Bronson’s penchant for wearing early samples, this courtside debut serves as the perfect teaser to build hype for what is shaping up to be another massive collaborative release.As of right now, no official release information or pricing details exist for the Action Bronson x New Balance 2811 Baklava collection. However, based on the timeline of previous drops, sneakerheads can likely expect the brand new silhouette to see a formal release late in 2026. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Action Bronson (@bambambaklava)Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast
