Jordan Brand pays homage to Chicago’s first three-peat championship win by bringing back its iconic Air Jordan 8 Retro sneaker. Calling on a color palette inspired by the three teams defeated by the Bulls during their 1991-93 season, which was led by all-time sporting greats Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen. Featuring a mostly white and black base, the infrared Jumpman logo on the tongue and brightly colored heel counter provide eye-catching details while retaining the shoe’s timeless design cues. The shoe is expected to drop on October 24 at Nike.com and will be included in the Jordan Brand 2015 Holiday Retro Lineup.

Calvin Klein Collection 2016 Spring/Summer Collection
Calvin Klein Collection’s men’s creative director, Italo Zucchelli was inspired by a distinctively West Coast flavor for its 2016 spring/summer collection, and especially by Los Angeles artist Ed Ruscha’s trademark palm trees. This palm tree fixation resulted in a slew of casual T-shirts adorned with a Zucchelli-approved wave print, but don’t think that everything inspired by the Californian coast results in sunshine. The collection instead boasts a color palette of olive greens, creams and blacks, and a strong showing of denim. A minimalist in practice, Zucchelli is known for his rigidity and tailored shapes, a mark which he tried to relinquish this time around by incorporating the idea of “roundness” in pieces, manifesting itself in a round and flimsy belt draped around the model’s waists. Maximalism also found itself in the abundance of zips, flaps and pockets found on jackets and pants, offering a utilitarian aesthetic to an otherwise clean collection.
