Personally, I'm an absolute sucker for the Huarache Light with the original air sole, but this, this is something else! 


Having had a peek at early pairs at the last Laces Out! a couple months ahead of deliveries. It was clear that Diadora weren't messing around on the quality. Which is really odd, at the minute, "quality" is tossed about willy nilly, mainly to support Nike, in charging us £135 for a shoe we could pick up 3-5 years ago for £90, or even less. But we really do stand by this statement, the quality of the Trident 90s are off the scales

Being massive fans of the 2014 make up of the new age runner, its no surprise, we are fans of this wonderful colourway.

Most of us who wake up each morning, check their phones, check Instagram and Twitter like its the news, will have seen the BAIT Splash City Gel Lyte V's. 

Here at MensNeeds, were massive fans of low key. And this is the top of the lot really, low key colourway, on a stupidly underrated model. We like that stuff here.

Bait are continuing to slowly but surely take over the sneaker scene over in the states and this is now filterting through over the sea to England. With this Gel Lyte V celebrating the opening of the shop in San Fransisco it's only going to get the store more hype.

Most may already know, that just recently Bape EU closed with a massive sale on all items in stock. Personally I haven't a clue why, but they mustn't have been doing as well as they do in the Asian market, as it probably suits their culture a little more, possibly as many in the UK will sooner part with their money on a Supreme piece than Bape. Who knows?

Since 1995, every 5 years, New Balance have issued the 1300 in its original form under the name M1300JP, exclusively in Japan. But in 2010, for the shoes 25th anniversary, NB decided to distribute outside of Japan, and have thus continued this with the M1300JP2 as we would have all hoped.
The ZX Flux has been a huge success since it's release but adidas are constantly on the mission to try and keep it going, and they've just had a moment of brilliance on this new Core Mesh edition.

News of the collaborative efforts from Lost Art and Nike SB, dubbed the Docklands, drawing inspiration from the docks and the over head railway, surfaced on Wednesday, come Saturday Noon, they released, with the Lost Art faithful queuing down the street to get their hands on the first LA collab; and we can confirm its a good'un.

The collaborations on the ASICS silhouettes seem to have quietened off slightly, but Titolo is bringing all the memories of the last few years rushing back. But wow, they've done an awesome job.



We cannot stress how vital it is to put out a good collaboration at the minute, with the next collaboration of any shoe being this weekend, like the rest of them. We believe a good collaboration, if your store isn't already on the map, this can then do so, it can put you up there with the likes of Patta and Footpatrol, which bring in a lot of customers due to the status of these stores in the sneaker community.


We've seen so many iterations of the Huarache over the last few years, but we've now got another to contend with. But surprisingly, it really works, like really works!

It's not very often we get to see a great Reebok Ventilator collaboration, so when they come along, they better be good. Mighty Healthy haven't dissapointed us with this one.

END. have almost cemented themselves as one of the best collaborators definitely in the UK maybe the world, and they definitely don't seem to be slowing down. This Onitsuka Tiger Colorado is outstanding and great work by END.

Well here we go, once again you can be your very own Forrest Gump. I'm fairly sure not everyone would want to be Forrest but if you're sane in the head you're going to want to get your hands on one if not all of this classic collection.

With a rich heritage in the history of Fell running, hailing from Bolton UK, Walsh have teamed up with Universal Works of London town, to bring us one of the cleanest collaborations in a long while, with no forced themes, just wonderful materials, colours and impeccable shape.

In recent times, Asics have been domination on the collaboration front, of course, why wouldn't they be? With the collaboration king Ronnie Fieg taking the leads, bringing unknown silhouettes, to most, into the spot light.

It's been a little while since we saw something coming out of the mita sneakers' doors, but now we have. With a little help from ASICS they've managed to make two beauties.
