New Balance RC42
Say hello to the New Balance RC42, the perfect blend of old-school cool and modern comfort. With a sleek, low-profile wedge shape, these kicks pay homage to the 1970s training designs but with a fresh twist. The simple yet stylish look channels that sporty, laid-back vibe that was all the rage back in the day.
Made with a leather upper and suede details on the toe, eyerow, and heel, the RC42 adds a touch of class to your everyday look. The EVA midsole, inspired by indoor football shoes, gives you all-day comfort, while the exposed foam tongue ties it all back to that ‘70s aesthetic.
Whether you’re hitting the gym or just out and about, the RC42 has you covered with its comfy design and breathable materials. The clean lines and bold colours make it easy to pair with anything—whether you’re going sporty or just keeping it casual.

Hello Kitty x adidas Gazelle
To mark Hello Kitty’s 50th anniversary, adidas has collaborated with Sanrio once more and used the vintage Gazelle as its muse. adidas and Hello Kitty Gazelle sneakers are quite sleek and chic and feature a leather upper, suede toe cap, and come with a heat-embossed 3-Stripes. In tribute to the cute cartoon character, which never fails to capture the hearts of people, Hello Kitty’s face is engraved in laser cut on the leather by the side.
But remember, these Gazelles are not just a pair of shoes; they are icons that are part of the Hello Kitty craze. One might say that there is a mere decorative element placed in the lace of the shoe straps that resembles the Hello Kitty bow—it’s an add-on that does not have functionality, but contributes to the uniqueness of each pair. Generating a great deal of excitement for collectors or anyone who wants to add a fun element to their wardrobe, this is perfect for Hello Kitty enthusiasts and sneakerheads.
