Soulgoods and Nike are introducing the Homescape Woven in a "Medium Orewood Brown" colorway. What started as a simple idea to add a mudguard to the Footscape Woven quickly evolved into an entirely new hybrid silhouette. The Nike Homescape Woven keeps the classic woven side panels of the original but adds a rugged outsole for better grip and a collapsible heel so it can easily be worn as a slip-on. The shoe stands out through its mix of premium materials, pairing leather, hairy suede, and woven fabric across the upper. The earthy brown colorway ties these varied textures together, keeping the busy design looking clean and grounded. Instead of just applying a new color to an existing shoe, Soulgoods built this model from the ground up. It's a true hybrid that fits right into Nike's current trend of mashing up classic designs. The Soulgoods x Nike Homescape Woven "Medium Orewood Brown" shoe drops July 11 via  Nike SNKRS for $180 USD.

The second sneaker in Travis Scott 's summer Air Jordan 1 Low pack takes the bright color theme even further. This specific model shifts the focus away from red and leans heavily into a pinker palette. It uses a light "Sail" and "Muslin" background that is completely taken over by striking "Tropical Pink" and "Shy Pink" accents for a loud, eye-catching finish.

It is built with the same durable blend of smooth leather and soft suede. The sneaker also features Travis Scott's signature oversized reverse Swoosh, a standard Nike Swoosh on the opposite side, and matching embroidered logos across the heel.

As one of the main WNBA ambassadors for the Kobe line, this might be one of Clark's last exclusive Kobes before she steps into her own signature era.
