      <title>Cat Footwear Proves That Strength Can Sparkle With Crystals by Swarovski</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><img width="620" src="https://image-cdn.hypb.st/https%3A%2F%2Fbae.hypebeast.com%2Ffiles%2F2026%2F10%2F22%2FSingle-Image-707.jpg?w=800&cbr=1&q=90&fit=max" /></p><div>Who says tough footwear can't have a little sparkle? Cat Footwear is giving its rugged, utility-inspired silhouettes a glamorous update, teaming its signature industrial aesthetic with crystals by Swarovski. With the tagline, "Where Strength Meets Sparkle," the new offering brings together two masters of their respective crafts, proving that durability and a little extra shine can go hand in hand.The range introduces three styles: the Lyric Wonder and the Intruder Wonder in both black and white. Each pair reimagines a Cat Footwear signature embellished with crystals by Swarovski, adding a dose of glamor to the brand's OG tough-girl aesthetic.Leading the lineup, the Intruder Wonder builds on the chunky proportions of the original sneaker, embellished with crystals by Swarovski cascading across the upper to catch the light with every step. Available in black with gunmetal detailing or white with silver branding, both iterations balance industrial edge with a polished finish. Meanwhile, the Lyric Wonder brings the same treatment to a more streamlined silhouette, featuring rose-pin crystals arranged in a gradient that fades from full sparkle at the toe to a subtle shimmer at the heel.The ingredients branding partnership draws on Swarovski's diverse portfolio of unmatched quality, craftsmanship and creativity and Cat Footwear's legacy of engineering-led design, with each embellishment carefully placed to complement the shoes' distinctive construction.The result? A fresh take on everyday statement footwear that doesn't compromise on attitude, bringing a little brilliance to Cat Footwear's hard-wearing DNA. The collection drops globally on November 6, so mark your calendars and head to the Cat Footwear website.</div><p><a href="https://hypebae.com/2026/10/cat-footwear-collection-crystals-by-swarovski-lyric-wonder-intruder-shoes-where-to-buy" title="Cat Footwear Proves That Strength Can Sparkle With Crystals by Swarovski" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Click here to view full gallery at Hypebae</a></p>]]></description>

Marking an ongoing evolution of their partnership, this season's footwear rotation romantically reinterprets iconic Three Stripes silhouettes through decadent textures, jewel tones and bespoke craftsmanship.   Taking center stage is the WB Karintha, which receives a distinct tailoring-inspired makeover. The sleek silhouette arrives clad in dark brown stamped crocodile leather, anchored by brushed gold eyelets. Continuing the reptilian motifs, the beloved WB Gazelle Snake is rendered in an eye-catching green crocodile-stamped leather upper, balancing archival sports DNA with a touch of fashionable flair.   The collection also turns its gaze to track culture and running with the WB ADIZERO Adios Suede. Recontextualizing the high performance running shoe for everyday styling, the pair is reworked with a velvety, fully suede upper and custom craft-inspired Three Stripes detailing. Rounding out the footwear lineup is the debut of the WB BW Pony. The minimalist silhouette receives its most expressive treatment yet, layering plush pony hair uppers alongside contrasting stamped lizard print leather overlays.      The adidas Originals by Wales Bonner FW26 collection is available to purchase now on the adidas website and select retailers. In other news, JENNAX designed an adidas Firebird tracksuit using latex.</div><p><a href="https://hypebae.com/2026/10/new-wales-bonner-adidas-originals-footwear-sneakers-karintha-gazelle-adizero-pony-info-where-to-buy" title="A Closer Look at the New Wales Bonner x adidas Originals Footwear" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Click here to view full gallery at Hypebae</a></p>]]></description>

      <title>Vans Delivers Chaos and Glam for Its "Meet The Vans" Holiday Collection</title>

Vans has returned with the second season of its festive "Meet The Vans" campaign, delivering a star-studded celebration of winter footwear that embodies pure "Off The Wall" energy.   This year's narrative trades a traditional holiday story for a collage of festive moments starring an unconventional family. The multi-generational cast pairs brand mainstays like fashion icon Lisa Love and skate legend Geoff Rowley alongside rising talents Samara Cyn and Nettspend. Joining the crew this season are musician Devon Again, pro skateboarder Junior Gutierrez, pro snowboarder Mia Brookes and chef Laurent Dagenais.   Designed for changing weather and late-night festivities, the collection is anchored by a lineup of Weatherized Classics.

      <title>Day-to-Night Dressing Is Easy in Sophia Wilson's Seasonal Essentials</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><img width="620" src="https://image-cdn.hypb.st/https%3A%2F%2Fbae.hypebeast.com%2Ffiles%2F2026%2F10%2F23%2Fsophia-wilson-dr-martens-crazy-horse-seasonal-essentials-interview-where-to-buy-ft.jpg?w=800&cbr=1&q=90&fit=max" /></p><div>Hypebae's Seasonal Essentials series rounds up some of the biggest tastemakers, influencers and style enthusiasts, giving them the opportunity to share some of their top fashion tips with our community. With fall in full swing and colder days ahead, it's officially Dr. Martens season. We looked to visionary photographer Sophia Wilson to give us some inspiration on how to style our Docs for the new season. Wilson's style is a reflection of her art – feminine with grungy elements and soft finishes. Her outfits are vibrant and full of life, anchored by statement colors and flouncing skirts. The color is key to perfecting a Sophia Wilson outfit, forming a part of her identity and the way she expresses herself from a young age. "I've always loved dressing colorfully, even when I was little, and I just don't ever want to lose that part of myself."When she's on set, expect a good, sturdy pair of Dr. Martens to be on her feet at all times, especially when she's shooting on location because "they're really durable, and I never know what I'm about to get myself into."  View this post on InstagramA post shared by Hypebae (@hypebae)This season, her newest essential is the 8065 Mary Jane in Crazy Horse Leather. The brown leather shoes feature double straps and D-shaped buckles, with an upper that can withstand even the longest days and toughest sets to navigate. These shoes aren't solely for creating in Wilson's mind, though. She dresses them up from day to night with small accents that express her big personality. Her biggest tip for elevating your pair? "When I want to go out, I dress up my Dr. Martens by putting little charms on them, or I wear really fun, colorful socks or accessories like an anklet."Styling her Mary Janes with a pink trench and fuzzy, blue and white-striped scarf by day, and a hot pink mini skirt and teal socks for the nighttime, Wilson's style and sense of self shines through in every look, with a little help from Dr. Martens' bouncing soles.Check out the full episode of Seasonal Essentials in the gallery above. To get Wilson’s look, explore the Crazy Horse Icons collection on the Dr. Martens website.</div><p><a href="https://hypebae.com/2026/10/sophia-wilson-dr-martens-crazy-horse-seasonal-essentials-interview-where-to-buy" title="Day-to-Night Dressing Is Easy in Sophia Wilson&#039;s Seasonal Essentials" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Click here to view full gallery at Hypebae</a></p>]]></description>

Under the creative direction of Simone Bellotti, the new collection revisits three classic PUMA archetypes through Jil Sander's signature refined, understated lens.   Leading the collection's apparel debut is an elevated reinterpretation of the iconic T7 tracksuit. Crafted from a bi-stretch wool developed exclusively for Jil Sander, the set features a boxy track jacket and tapered track pants in a custom navy hue. Finished with a brushed silver zipper and a dual-branded woven label, the tracksuit blends structured tailoring and clean lines with natural, breathable design. A relaxed, boxy long-sleeve tee completes the capsule.   On the footwear front, the duo introduces sleek updates to two archive legends. The motorsport-inspired Speedcat returns in all-black and all-white leather, complete with an artisanal leather heel detail and full leather lining. Meanwhile, the iconic Suede gets a high-fashion facelift with premium white leather, a refined outsole and a hidden lace construction.   The PUMA x Jil Sander AW26 collection will be available to purchase starting October 23 on the Jil Sander and PUMA websites, as well as select Jil Sander and PUMA flagship stores, followed by a wider release at global stockists on October 24.In other news, Converse and Vaquera dropped a new collaboration.</div><p><a href="https://hypebae.com/2026/10/puma-jil-sander-aw26-collaboration-speedcat-suede-sneakers-tracksuit-info-where-to-buy" title="PUMA and Jil Sander Reunite for AW26" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Click here to view full gallery at Hypebae</a></p>]]></description>

      <title>Converse and Vaquera Turn a Skate Shoe Into a Kitten Heel With Kim Petras</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><img width="620" src="https://image-cdn.hypb.st/https%3A%2F%2Fbae.hypebeast.com%2Ffiles%2F2026%2F10%2F21%2FSingle-Image-698.jpg?w=800&cbr=1&q=90&fit=max" /></p><div>Converse and Vaquera are back with another footwear curveball, introducing the VX-1 Heel, a new silhouette that takes the classic skate shoe and gives it an unexpected night-out twist. Fronted by Grammy-winning pop star Kim Petras, the latest release continues the duo's shared love of subverting familiar fashion codes. We did not see this one coming.Inspired by Converse's archived CS Pro-1 skate shoe, the VX-1 Heel pairs a padded, sporty upper with a kitten heel, creating a hybrid that feels ready for both the skatepark and the club. The design features a perforated suede upper, padded mesh tongue and wide laces threaded through molded eyelet covers. Star Chevron branding, a co-branded rubber tongue label and translucent heel detailing round out the look, while a gum rubber outsole keeps its skate-inspired roots intact.For the accompanying campaign, Petras is photographed inside a miniature house, using exaggerated scale to play with the idea of refusing to be boxed in. It's a fitting visual for Vaquera, the New York-founded label known for its surrealist approach to fashion and penchant for challenging convention.The release follows the pair's first partnership in 2025, which reworked the Chuck Taylor All Star into slouchy, wedge-heeled styles. This time, they're taking things further with an entirely new model that brings a rebellious edge to the kitten heel. If you thought you'd seen the last of sneaker heels, think again.The VX-1 Heel launches on October 27 via the Converse and Vaquera websites.In other news, Hypebae caught up with Mert Alas to talk about shaping Miley Cyrus' new era.</div><p><a href="https://hypebae.com/2026/10/converse-vaquera-collaboration-skate-shoe-vx-1-heel-kim-petras-release-date-where-to-buy" title="Converse and Vaquera Turn a Skate Shoe Into a Kitten Heel With Kim Petras" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Click here to view full gallery at Hypebae</a></p>]]></description>

      <title>KEEN and Collina Strada Team Up for a Dreamy Footwear Collab</title>

Blending KEEN's rugged performance DNA with Collina Strada founder Hillary Taymour's playful, eco-conscious vision, the two-piece capsule reimagines classic utilitarian silhouettes into wearable art pieces.   The limited-edition release reimagines two of KEEN’s signature silhouettes: the Targhee EXP boot and the Jasper Rocks sneaker. Infusing a "punk-feminine" energy into functional footwear, both styles feature vegan, satin-like uppers inspired by mid-1800s Victorian boots, 100% recycled linings and probiotic-based Eco Anti-Odor control.   The Targhee EXP Collina Strada boot is outfitted with a medial side zip for easy wear and a supportive heel-capture system. The boot is highlighted by an oversized, handmade rosette that adds a distinct Collina Strada touch to KEEN's gorpcore aesthetic.Meanwhile, the Jasper Rocks Collina Strada sneaker pairs flexible, climbing-inspired translucent rubber outsoles with playful details like custom plaids, florals and a removable handmade flower attached through the laces.   "Our aim was to make a shoe that portrayed part sculpture, part sneaker, and part fantasy," says Taymour. "It's not just about walking through the world — it's about leaving a beautiful, conscious footprint behind."   The limited-edition KEEN x Collina Strada Fall 2026 collection is available now on the KEEN and Collina Strada websites and select retailers. In other news, Saucony dropped a GORE-TEX collection for the new season.</div><p><a href="https://hypebae.com/2026/10/keen-collina-strada-collaboration-jasper-rocks-targhee-exp-gorpcore-where-to-buy" title="KEEN and Collina Strada Team Up for a Dreamy Footwear Collab" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Click here to view full gallery at Hypebae</a></p>]]></description>

      <title>Kiko Kostadinov x Crocs Was Made for the Great Outdoors</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><img width="620" src="https://image-cdn.hypb.st/https%3A%2F%2Fbae.hypebeast.com%2Ffiles%2F2026%2F10%2F15%2Fkiko-kostadinov-crocs-vaals-collaboration-aw26-release-date-where-to-buy-ft.jpg?w=800&cbr=1&q=90&fit=max" /></p><div>Kiko Kostadinov and Crocs are joining forces to introduce the VAALS, a technical new silhouette that reinterprets foam footwear through elevated materials and a focus on utility. Originally debuting during Kiko Kostadinov’s Menswear Autumn/Winter 2026 presentation in Paris, the shoe blends traditional craftsmanship and Crocs' aesthetic with technical design. Arriving in three earthy colorways — "Black," "Kelp," and "Yellow Sand" — the upper pairs tumbled leather with breathable sandwich mesh, anchored by a distinct oblong toe shape and wrapped saddle-stitch detailing. Nodding to Crocs' brand heritage, a custom-moulded TPU band references the archival Genna silhouette, accompanied by a toggle bungee lacing system and a heel pull tab for easy wear on a day-to-day basis. Underneath, a rugged rubber outsole is fused with Crocs' signature LiteRide footbed, ensuring everyday support and lightweight cushioning.   To highlight the collaboration's outdoor origins, American artist Jim Mangan photographed the official campaign near Crocs' headquarters in Boulder, Colorado. Set across two local landmarks — the ancient sandstone formations of Red Rocks and Charles Haertling's organic 1969 "Mushroom House" — the imagery pairs the hybrid footwear with select apparel from Kiko Kostadinov’s AW26 collection.   The Kiko Kostadinov x Crocs VAALS will be available to purchase starting October 20 on the Kiko Kostadinov website and select retail locations.In other news, Vans and SZA debuted VANSZA Drop 1.</div><p><a href="https://hypebae.com/2026/10/kiko-kostadinov-crocs-vaals-collaboration-aw26-release-date-where-to-buy" title="Kiko Kostadinov x Crocs Was Made for the Great Outdoors" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Click here to view full gallery at Hypebae</a></p>]]></description>

Leading the footwear range are the VANSZA Knu Skool Mule and the VANSZA Authentic Kickdown. Tailored for effortless wear, the Authentic Kickdown features custom artwork by Sage Adams, distressed canvas and a collapsible heel, while the Knu Skool Mule strips away the back entirely.

More comfort. More color."   Beyond footwear, the apparel and accessories channel a vintage outdoor aesthetic infused with a DIY ethos. The wider collection includes workwear-inspired oversized jackets, relaxed cargo pants and playful fish-inspired graphics.   The accompanying campaign, shot by photographer India Sleem against California's sun-drenched landscapes, features a cast representing SZA's creative community. The lineup includes Vans Skate Team rider Zion Wright, plus models Caylee Blosenski and Isabella Carr, alongside singer-songwriter Vans.

      <title>The Jacquemus and Timberland Boat Shoe Got a Croc Makeover</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p><img width="620" src="https://image-cdn.hypb.st/https%3A%2F%2Fbae.hypebeast.com%2Ffiles%2F2026%2F10%2F14%2Fjacquemus-timberland-boat-shoe-collaboration-crocodile-release-date-where-to-buy-ft.jpg?w=800&cbr=1&q=90&fit=max" /></p><div>When playful, French luxury meets rugged American heritage, design magic happens. Timberland and Jacquemus have joined forces once again to reimagine an enduring outdoor icon: Timberland’s classic Authentic Boat Shoe. First introduced in 1978, the timeless silhouette gets an elevated, trendy upgrade just in time for the new season.   Trading traditional smooth leather for a crocodile-embossed finish, the limited-edition collaboration brings a countryside spirit straight into the realm of fine leather craftsmanship. The design balances Timberland's utilitarian, weather-resistant DNA with Simon Porte Jacquemus' signature, refined and contemporary approach.Available in two understated colorways — "Brown Croc" and "Navy Croc" — the shoe is a far cry from the bold turquoise pair the duo launched their collaboration with. Instead, this version pairs an embossed leather upper with a soft leather lining, a plush padded collar, and Timberland’s signature rugged rubber outsole. Subtle details like bespoke branded aglets and tonal tree logos complete the look.   The Jacquemus x Timberland Authentic Boat Shoe officially launches on October 15, and will be available online at Jacquemus and Timberland websites, as well as select flagship boutiques and luxury wholesale partners globally.In other news, PUMA launched the Speedcat Croc sneaker with ROSÉ.</div><p><a href="https://hypebae.com/2026/10/jacquemus-timberland-boat-shoe-collaboration-crocodile-release-date-where-to-buy" title="The Jacquemus and Timberland Boat Shoe Got a Croc Makeover" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Click here to view full gallery at Hypebae</a></p>]]></description>

Introducing the new design as the face of the campaign is global superstar and frequent PUMA collaborator ROSÉ, who brings her confidence and style to a cozy, softly-lit retro setting.   The special-edition drop reimagines the legendary racing shoe by blending tactile suede uppers with glossy, crocodile-textured overlays along the Formstrip and eyestays. Designed to strike a balance between subtle luxury and street-ready style, the collection plays with the rich contrast between matte textures and reflective details. Tonal laces and understated PUMA branding complete the refined aesthetic.   Arriving in three versatile colorways — deep brown, black, and off-white — the Speedcat Croc offers a sophisticated twist on a timeless staple. The low-profile silhouette continues to serve as an icon of speed and style, proven once again by ROSÉ’s chic interpretation of the footwear classic. Dressed in fresh new colors for the colder months, the new pack proves that the classic sneaker is here to stay for Autumn/Winter 2026.   The PUMA Speedcat Croc will be available to purchase starting October 15 on the PUMA website and select retailers.
