Basketcase x New Balance Is Off The Chain

also ASICS' next killer dad shoe, Undercover x Champion Sweats, 10 years of Y/Project and DeuxMoi's new perfume. BASKETCASE & NEW BALANCE'S SNEAKER IS OFF THE CHAIN New Balance’s 1906a sneaker is a busy design. Covered in deliberate imperfections such as exposed stitching, pieces of fabric left flapping in the wind, and raw, uneven edges, we described the New Balance 1906a as “beautiful chaos" when it was first released. But the New Balance 1906ad, presented by Basketcase? Well, that's extra beautiful and extra chaotic. Basketcase, a Californian streetwear label, has decked the shoe out with a grey mesh base that focuses on the uneven, dark-colored overlays that adorn the upper.

And this time, it's ASICS bringing back the Gel Nimbus 10. The successor of the Gel Nimbus 9, a criminally underrated sneaker, the cushioned running shoe was originally released in 2008. Now, it's back as part of ASICS’ fashion-focused Sportstyle range, however, this isn't the Gel Nimbus 10 as we remember it. The ASICS Gel Nimbus 10.1 takes the original sneakers upper and merges it together with the sole of the [ASICS Gel-Kayano 14]( another retro running model [that’s found popularity]( among the fashion-conscious.

At the Spring/Summer 2025 menswear shows in Paris, Jun Takahashi unveiled an unexpected, elevated, collaboration with the lounge and sportswear purveyor. The looks were inspired by an artist's everyday wardrobe — AKA what your friend who claims they're a "Creative Director" would wear to brunch at Lucien. No artist wardrobe would be complete without a worn-in hoodie and sweatpants, probably stained with coffee or ink. Undercover teamed up with Champion to create just that, except more luxurious than you'd ever imagine.

On the streets of Paris, East London, or Berlin, there exist some particularly striking garments — asymmetrical, buckling in twists and folds, simultaneously growing and decaying around their (equally sculpted) owners. Perhaps you’ll see one; perhaps you’ll even compliment it. But an innocent inquiry as to said garment’s source will earn you a look from the owner that’s part thrilled, part pitying, and part supercilious. Because you didn’t know. “Y/Project has turned into my world”: Glenn Martens, adoptive father to this club, has taken time out of his double creative directorship (he also heads up Diesel, but you knew that already) to tell me about it. And, despite a punishing schedule — and the fact he spoke to us what-feels-like-yesterday for our Frontpage story — he is thorough, considered, perhaps even tentative. “At Y/Project,” he muses, “we try to give questions, but never answers.” [READ MORE](   BEAUTY DEUXMOI'S PERFUME DOESN'T SMELL LIKE CELEBRITY GOSSIP By Alexandra Pauly © VIOLET GREY Celebrity gossip monger DeuxMoi has landed a buzz-worthy beauty collab. On Thursday, the mystery woman behind the Instagram account — which solicits its followers to submit celebrity sightings and rumors — debuted her first fragrance at luxury beauty retailer Violet Grey. The perfume was created by DeuxMoi and indie fragrance brand Voyage et Cie, founded by Melanie Apple. Dubbed "Plage," the French word for beach, the tropical scent features plumeria, pikake, coconut, ylang ylang, and jasmine — not exactly the notes you'd want to wear to remain "anon pls."
