PAUSE Picks: Top Sneaker Releases of the Week

Wake up, Martine Rose x Nike is back. The Shox MR4 is the latest drop, and it arrives in this instant classic “Metallic/Platinum Red” iteration. Yeah, this collaboration has still got it.

One of New Balance’s most sleek takes on a running silhouette, the 204L is here in an array of dashing designs. Keeping a low-key profile, this new silhouette combines the low-to-the-ground structure of ’70s running shoes with a dose of soft, premium suede, incorporating various elements of some of the sportswear giant’s most potent successes. Bringing in shades of sharp “Metallic Silver” and some slithers of “Still Water” blue, this pair takes away the bulk from previous NB running shoes, prioritising a silhouette that seamlessly transitions into any type of seasonal wardrobe. This shoe is for the “everyman,” and it need some love.

To be honest, this is a personal favourite in the extensive run of Wales Bonner x Adidas sneakers. The new take on the Karintha Low silhouette boasts a striking “Satin Blue” colourway and material, with heavily-knitted details instilling some very noticeable WB design DNA. So, so good.

Palace x Nike, one of 2025’s most anticipated collabs, really hit the spot with these Total 90 IIIs. There’s just something about that silver and volt yellow colour scheme… get us back on the field. We’re ready to go (Wayne) Rooney.

LV have our world “Tilted” upside down with these. Perfect for the autumn and winter months, the brown take on Louis Vuitton’s new Tilted sneaker is really as good as it gets with an LV joint. That gum sole and brown suede? Iconic link-up, as always.
