adidas x Taqwa Bint Ali Megaride Mary-Jane
adidas, Press
Release Date: January 22
Editor's Notes: A multi-hyphenate creative, a model, and an entrepreneur, Taqwa Bint Ali has added another feather to her bow. She is now also an adidas collaborator and the creative force behind this old-school, chunky sneaker-turned-Mary Jane.
New Balance U1906AB
new balance, Press
Release Date: January 22
Editor's Notes: Deconstructed and purposefully unfinished, the New Balance 1906A starts the year with a trio of new colorways. This combination of deep blue hues is the highlight of the latest three-piece drop.

atmos, Press
Release Date: January 24
Editor's Notes: GRIP SWANY, an American workwear company founded in 1848 and now headquartered in Japan, is making a habit of transforming sneakers through rugged fabrics. Following its carabiner-wielding Timberland boots and heavy-duty Crocs come these rugged ASICS sneakers.
adidas Samba 62
adidas, Press
Release Date: January 23
Editor's Notes: Another Samba alternative has arrived! The Samba 62, a slightly chunkier silhouette with an extended heel tab and statement gold lettering, is the latest Samba to return from the archives.
With the Samba OG's moment in the spotlight all but over, could the Samba 62 rise to prominence?
New Balance 1906W
new balance, Press
Release Date: Available now
Editor's Notes: It's not often that the same sneaker model gets featured twice in this roundup but today, New Balance's 1906 fills two spaces on our list.
An all-new take on the old-school running shoe, the 1906W comes with a scaly-looking upper inspired by New Balance's military sneakers.
adidas x Dime Gazelle ADV
adidas, Press
Release Date: Available now
Editor's Notes: Behind their dapper, studded facade, these sneakers are a pair of hard-wearing skate shoes complete with an Adituff layer under the toebox for increased durability, a hard-wearing vulcanized sole unit, and PU foam insoles for impact protection.
