Morbius New Trailer Released

Sony has dropped a new trailer for the upcoming movie centred around Marvel’s Michael Morbius played by Jared Leto. It feels like a lifetime ago that we got the first trailer for this movie before the COVID-19 pandemic put a hold on the movie causing it to be delayed, but now we have a new release date for the movie along with a brand new look at the blood sucking character.

Leto stars as Dr Michael Morbius, a scientist with a rare blood disease who sets out to find a cure and save others who have the same condition. In trying to cure one issue, Morbius creates another, turning himself into a Vampire. Leto is joined by a stellar cast including Tyrese Gibson (Fast & Furious Saga), Matt Smith (Doctor Who), Adria Arjona (Pacific Rim: Uprising), and Michael Keaton (Spiderman: Homecoming). Keaton’s role is the one that most Marvel fans will be paying attention to, as he shocked everyone when he showed up at the end of the first trailer. He played Adrian Toomes, aka Vulture, in Spider-Man: Homecoming, a film that takes place within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. His inclusion has many wondering if Morbius is also somehow connected to the MCU.

The official synopsis from Sony is as follows:

“One of Marvel’s most compelling and conflicted characters comes to the big screen as Oscar winner Jared Leto transforms into the enigmatic antihero, Michael Morbius. Dangerously ill with a rare blood disorder, and determined to save others suffering his same fate, Dr. Morbius attempts a desperate gamble. What at first appears to be a radical success soon reveals itself to be a remedy potentially worse than the disease.”

So let us know Marvel fans, are you excited in seeing this one? It’s not one i would have picked for the movies, but it sure does look entertaining.

Morbius is due to hit cinemas on January 28th 2022

The Book of Boba Fett First Trailer

The Book of Boba Fett First Trailer

Get excited Star Wars fans, our favourite bounty hunter is back! Due to the overwhelming success of The Mandalorian, the first spin-off series is here with the first look at the upcoming Disney+ series “The Book of Boba Fett”

The Book of Boba Fett

Temuera Morrison reprises his role of the notorious bounty hunter from his appearances in Season 2 of The Mandalorian along side Fennec Shand (played by Ming-Na Wen). Several attempts were made at developing a standalone film centred on Boba Fett before Lucasfilm began focusing their efforts on The Mandalorian. Due to the success of The Mandalorian, Lucasfilm green lit the spin off series which was originally teased in the post credit scenes of the final episode of season 2 of The Mandalorian.

The Book of Boba Fett is set just after that post credit scene, which saw Fett (Temuera Morrison) — aided by fellow bounty hunter Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen) — killing Bib Fortuna and reclaiming the palace and territory once held by Jabba the Hutt. The new series appears to follow Fett’s efforts to bring some order to the former crime lord’s holding — presumably without too many disintegrations.

Going off the trailer, this is going to dive right into the underworld of the Star Wars universe to show us a different side. The Book of Boba Fett is also just the first of several planned Mandalorian spinoffs that Disney has in the works for Disney Plus; the company is also working on Ashoka and Rangers of the New Republic, which will cross over with the original series in the future in a “climactic story event.” That’s in addition to other Star Wars shows set to hit the streaming service in the future, including the Rogue One prequel Andor, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Lando, The Acolyte, and future seasons of The Bad Batch and The Mandalorian.

The Book of Boba Fett is set to hit Disney+ on December 29th 2021

Let us know what you think of the trailer and are you excited to see this one?

First ‘Lightyear’ Trailer Released by Disney & Pixar

First ‘Lightyear’ Trailer Released by Disney & Pixar

Buzz Lightyear to the rescue! Those infamous words spanned over 4 movies known as Toy Story. While that storyline focused on the toy of Buzz Lightyear, the actual space ranger story has yet to be told until now.

Last year at the Disney Investor Day presentation, Disney announced that Pixar was working on a solo story about the real Buzz Lightyear, that inspired the toy in Toy Story and that Buzz was going to be voiced by Captain America himself, Chris Evans. Now this rattled the cage of the Toy Story fans, why wasnt Tim Allen given the chance to come back and re-voice buzz? Simple answer is, its not about that version of Buzz. This is the Space Ranger story.

The version of Buzz featured in Lightyear will be very different than the one we’re used to, but this won’t be the first time the character has existed as something other than a toy. Buzz Lightyear of Star Command was an animated TV series that aired on The Disney Channel in 2000 and 2001. That show followed the adventures of the Space Rangers at Star Command, with Patrick Warburton voicing Buzz. A film called Buzz Lightyear of Star Command: The Adventure Begins kicked off the events of the series, though Allen remained the voice of Buzz for that title.

While we are still unsure whats in store for the movie, we have the first official teaser trailer from Lightyear to get us excited on whats to come.

Lightyear is set to hit cinemas on the 17th of June 2022. This will be the second Pixar movie of 2022 with Turning Red being their first.

Let us know what you think about this one Toy Story fans. What do you think of Buzz with hair? Bet that one is freaking you out a bit.

atmos x adidas Originals Forum 84 Low ‘Wheat’

Japanese sneaker boutique atmos has done it again with another collab with adidas, releasing the all-new adidas Originals Forum 84 Low ‘Wheat.’ It’s another masterpiece with the classic model from adidas Originals; this time finished with nubuck leather. Since first appearing as a basketball shoe in the 1980’s, the Forum silhouette has gained immense popularity in the street scene. This new model pays homage to the original by keeping some of the designs used at the time of its debut. For example, the padded ankle straps and cross-shaped details on the sides are iconic symbols of the first Forum.

The sneakers are dressed in a deep wheat-coloured nubuck leather, which represents the autum and winter season. The gum sole and round straps give them an attractive new look, making them look like ‘sneaker boots.’

The sneakers are modelled by O-Menz, a mysterious masked dance group formed in May 2020 on Tiktok. Their quality dance performances, catchy choreography and masks gave them instant recognition. The group gained popularity due to this anonymity and novelty, and the number of followers increased in a blink of an eye. Their account now exceeds 700,000 followers. Although the identities of the dancers have never been revealed, there are members who have amazing accolades such as winning world championships.

Check out their crazy atmos x adidas collab dance video above.

The atmos x adidas Originals Forum 84 Low ‘Wheat’ will be released on Saturday, 30th of October. Make sure you subscribe to our newsletter to keep up to date! For all atmos articles click here. Previous Adidas features can be found here.

JD Sports Wollongong Central Grand Opening

It feels like a minute since we have been able to cover a store opening for JD Sports. With the COVID-19 pandemic still causing chaos here in Australia, its been just over 12 months since we last covered an opening which was the Liverpool store. This time around, it brought us to the beachy suburb of Wollongong, down on the South Coast in NSW. For those who dont know, Wollongong is about an hour drive south of Sydney.

We know this store would attract alot of sneakerheads as it isnt too far from Sydney and there are alot of sneakerheads based down south. This opening didnt disappoint. A huge lineup was just outside the centre which went out onto Crown Street. The reason for the amount of people, would mostly likely be for the chance to snap up some limited drops that JD had on for sale which go all the way back to the Raging Bull Jordan 5 release at the end of April.

On top of that sneaker, the Wollongong store had a limited run of the Lightning 4s, UNC 4s, White Oreo 4s and a decent amount of Jordan 1s and Jordan 1 lows. With all these styles previously selling out around Australia, sneakerheads were quite keen to get their hands on them. On top of this, the first 50 customers through the door who made a purchase also received a Crep Protect giftpack valued at over $200.

JD Sports Wollongong Central

This appears to the the final store here in NSW for 2021. The lockdowns from COVID has unfortunately thrown their plans back till 2022. There is talk of another couple of stores in NSW, then their focus will shift to other states and even across the ditch to New Zealand with a store already setup in Auckland, but not open yet due to the lockdown situation and travel situation.

So, if you’re from the south coast of NSW and looking for some killer sneakers or some fresh threads, be sure to head into JD Sports in Wollongong Central. This store is very easy to find as its right opposite the doors off Crown St entrance into the centre near Jay Jays.

Be sure to check out our live stream from the opening to see what went down as well on our Facebook page.

Brain Dead x ASICS TRABUCO MAX™ ‘Chaos Slime’

Fairfax (Los Angeles) and Harajuku based streetwear brand, Brain Dead are thrilled to bring you their latest collaborative partnership with ASICS, the TRABUCO MAX™ ‘Chaos Slime.’ Utilizing one of ASICS trail running silhouettes, the TRABUCO MAX™ is the most technologically advanced sneaker to date.

The Brain Dead x ASICS TRABUCO MAX™ ‘Chaos Slime’ sneaker blends various design influences that stem from slime moulds and mycelium growth. Its look and feel represents the idea of nature creating forms that adapt to its surrounding environment.

The sneaker is made to interact with the trail like a mushroom interacts with the earth. Since traction is key for navigating off-road surfaces, they have included an ASICSGRIP™ outsole to keep you more connected to the outdoors. Meanwhile, the midsole is injected with FLYTEFOAM™ cushioning and GUIDESOLE™ technology. These components are designed to improve shock absorption and equip your stride with a smooth forward roll.

The ‘Chaos Slime’ sneaker release will come with a custom animated video created by Gage Lindsten featuring monsters and aliens in homage to the sneaker slime green sole and dark, otherworldly aura.

The Brain Dead x ASICS TRABUCO MAX™ ‘Chaos Slime’ will be available online via wearebraindead.com on Tuesday, 12th of October and as well in-store at the Brain Dead Studios in Fairfax and Harajuku. Global release will be on Saturday, 30th of October and will be available at Lo-Fi in Australia. For other ASICS features, click HERE and for sneaker features, click HERE.

Uncharted Official Movie Trailer

For many years, there have been many attempts to get an Uncharted movie off the ground. For those living under a rock, Uncharted is a massive popular Playstation game franchise that itself felt inspired by adventure movies like Indiana Jones and Tomb Raider.

This movie looks the goods with Tom Holland (Spider-Man: Homecoming) playing the lead role of Nathan Drake who teams up with Victor Sullivan played by Mark Wahlberg to track down the greatest treasure never found which leads to clues about Drake’s long lost brother who was also tracking down the same treasure.

It looks like the movie will take bits from Drake’s Fortune, Amoung Thieves, Thief’s End & The Lost Legacy video games. For those of you who were enjoying watching new releases at home during the pandemic, we’ve got some bad news: Uncharted won’t be getting a simultaneous release on Netflix in February. You’ll have to wait until its had its run on the big screen. The film is set to debut on Netflix within two years of its cinematic release, and that’s likely all the info we’re going to get until after the the movie’s had its time at the box office. 

Uncharted is set to hit cinemas on February 18th 2022

Let us know what you think about the trailer and are you looking forward to it

Limited Edt x adidas Consortium EQT Race Walk

Limited Edt x adidas Consortium EQT Race Walk

Limited Edt and adidas Consortium teams up to deliver its innovative take on the adidas Equipment (EQT) Race Walk. This collaboration was inspired by the F1 Night Race of the Singapore Grand Prix, which takes over the city after dark. The ever-growing supercar culture was chosen to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of adidas Equipment (EQT) under the “Life Needs Equipment” project.

Similar to the luxurious interiors of supercars, the shoe features a matte black nubuck upper, premium polished leather stripes and reflective details. To complete it, the glow-in-the-dark piping takes inspiration from the aggressive angles of the modern-day supercar. The result is a sleek modern take on a retro classic that will take you from day to night in a flash. The Limited Edt x adidas Consortium EQT Race Walk is limited to only 500 pairs worldwide, making this exclusive pair worthy of any collection.

Each pair of the Limited Edt x adidas Consortium EQT Race Walk will come with an extra set of laces with reflective details and a lanyard with a serialised Access Pass (001 to 500) reminiscent of the F1 Paddock passes.

The Access Pass has a QR code which gives you access to everything you need to know about this project. It also includes interviews and a host of privileges like vouchers and goodies at various sports, lifestyle and entertainment venues. This all exceeds the retail price of the shoe. For the people who purchase their pairs early on the release day, another extra bonus will be an adidas Life Needs Equipment coffee table book that chronicles the history of this line and features the works of all 12 collaborative pairs with adidas Consortium partners.

From the 25th of October to the 7th of November, the Limited Edt x adidas Consortium EQT Race Walk will be available at the Limited Edt Needs Equipment pop-up at Peninsula Shopping Complex. The pop-up store, under the pseudonym of “LE Sporting Goods,” mimics a nostalgic sporting goods store in the 90s. This is a subtle nod to Limited Edt’s parent company Weston Corporation which was founded in 1949. They have been a stalwart of Peninsula Shopping Complex; a mall which perhaps enjoyed its heyday back in the early 90s with its eclectic variety of stores.

The adidas EQT line was introduced in 1991. It represented the pinnacle of adidas performance products. For the 30th anniversary of adidas Equipment (EQT) under the “Life Needs Equipment” project, 12 global retailers were tasked to give their take on iconic EQT models: CSG 91, Running Support 93, Prototype and Race Walk.

Limited Edt is honoured to pay tribute to an important era in the history of adidas. A wealth of stories and understanding of the significance of the adidas EQT line can be found on lifeneedsequipment.com.

The Limited Edt x adidas Consortium EQT Race Walk will be available exclusively at Limited Edt Needs Equipment pop-up (Peninsula Shopping Complex), selected Limited Edt stores and limitededt.com on Monday, 25th of October at 7PM SGT.

KangaROOS Ultimate 001 ‘Cherry Maple’

KangaROOS Ultimate 001 ‘Cherry Maple’

KangaROOS is back with another limited edition release from their ROOS UNITED project. KangaROOS worked with Kish Kash and Sneakerqueen and used the Ultimate 001 silhouette as the base of the collaboration which was entitled the ‘Cherry Maple.’

The Story Behind the KangaROOS Ultimate 001 ‘Cherry Maple’

The friendship between Kish Kash and Sneakerqueen cemented over an appreciation of street culture that has crossed boundaries over the years, resulting in a deep rooted synergy which has now finally led to collaborating and channelling their mutual passion for sneakers and nature.

KangaROOS Ultimate 001 ‘Cherry Maple’ is exquisitely handcrafted in Germany from the finest leathers. This sneaker provides a reflection of the coming autumn and the marvel the transition between seasons presents via a spectrum of autumnal hues.

Coming from similar inspirations, but different approaches to sneaker archiving, we have come together to display our shared love for nature. Our inspirations come from walks on damp forest floors, padded with carpets of moss and fall foliage. From the twinkling sunlight through the forest canopy; the air fragrant from wild cherries and pine. From the colourful palette of maple leaves before they return to the earth from whence they came. From the misty mornings and golden hours.  From the reminder that nature is still the greatest colour coordinator and the thought that the continuous seasons may reconnect us to it and it to us.

KangaROOS, Kish Kash and Sneakerqueen hope that you appreciate and cherish the rich quality of the materials and the meticulous craftsmanship, as much as we do. We also hope you will wear them on many hikes to reconnect with our glorious environment – whether you find yourself on trails in a forest or the streets within the urban jungle.

The KangaROOS Ultimate 001 ‘Cherry Maple’ will be on Saturday, 23rd of October at 43einhald, Acribik, Afew, Alike, Asphaltgold, Bijsmaak, Eindelijk, Footshop, Gloryhole, Egotrips, Hanon, HHV, JumpNshoez, Lace Up, L’Óriginal, Mainsource, Outback, Overkill, Schrittmacher, SneakAvenue, Steffl 6th Floor, Street, Sneakerbaas, Sneakerstudio, Suppa, Titolo and on KangaROOS.
