After releasing in purple/black and yellow snake-print colourways back in spring, New Balance’s moccasin-style sneaker is now dropping with a suede cow-print upper ideal for autumn.
Patta x Crocs
Cult Amsterdam-based brand Patta links up with Crocs for two iterations of the Classic EXP Clog. The collab brings two colourways of the clog – a white and a black – with exclusive Jibbitz charms.

New Balance continues its collaborative partnership with Aminé, and this time it’s for the 992 “Outdoor School”. This is the first Made in USA shoe the rapper has worked on, tapping into nostalgia as it’s inspired by the MESD Outdoor School programme in Oregon, which he attended when he was a kid. The shoe features themed charms such as a frog, a compass, a fish, and more, which decorate the wooden hangtag. The shoe drops October 2nd, at Club Banana.
