Jordan Brand continues to push sneaker culture forward the official unveiling of the Air Jordan XXXV, the newest model in the 35-year history of the brand.
The AJ XXXV features a refined cushioning platform, led by the Eclipse Plate 2.0 and Zoom Air units throughout. Visual details throughout the AJ XXXV link the silhouette back to the AJ V, specifically with its top tongue design, its Kurim detailing, and molded foam pods around the collar of the shoe.
“The Air Jordan signature shoe has and will always be the most important shoe we make each year,” says Craig Williams, President of Jordan Brand. “Basketball is where the Jordan Brand started, and it’s where we’ll continue to invest in and advance our never-ending pursuit of excellence on the court.”
“The XXXV is comfortable, supportive and lightweight, to the point that I don’t even feel like I’m wearing it. I can play my style without even thinking about it,” said Boston Celtics superstar swingman Jayson Tatum. “I was shocked that Jordan could take the Eclipse Plate in the XXXIV and upgrade it in the XXXV.”
The Center of Gravity colorway will hit retailers across the globe on October 17. In celebration fo the launch, Jordan Brand is partnering with Snap to launch Bitmoji’s newest fashion collaboration featuring top styles and sneakers from the revolutionary sportswear brand.

“We were so excited to collaborate with Champion on this collection and are tremendously thankful for their support,” said Chad Royal-Pascoe, National Vice President, Corporate & Cause Partnerships at Boys & Girls Clubs of America. “Like us, the company has a genuine passion for youth engagement and a real awareness of the importance our youth will have in the future of our society and world at-large.”

Music and fashion have always had a special relationship. Both playing a major role in shifting the culture and defining the times of our lives. It’s that special correlation that has brought together Roberto Reale (aka Neuro.b) and Paolina Consiglieri for Blekkett, a hip-hop and electronic music production house and a fashion consultancy agency, that you owe it to yourself to get familiar with. They were gracious enough to take time to answer some questions for us. Below is the interview.
What is Blekkett?
Blekkett is a brand created by the artists for the artists. Founded by Roberto Reale (aka Neuro.b) in 2015 as a small independent record label, and since 2020 in co-foundation with Paolina Consiglieri, it is a hip-hop and electronic music production house and a fashion consultancy agency.
What inspired you to get into music and fashion?
We both grew up with a profound passion for music and fashion, it’s something innate.
Roberto: I was connected and exposed to the world of music since I was born.
My parents and siblings are economists, but they loved music and introduced me to a variety of sounds: my mama listened to opera, my father used to play the keyboards and my brother and sisters loved rock and hip-hop music. They always supported my growth, even when I decided to stop studying medicine to become a professional musician.
Furthermore I always dreamed of getting in touch with the fashion world, and meeting Paolina was unbelievably matching with my passions and goals.
Paolina: Fashion has always been fundamental in my life. I started working as a model, then my passion got bigger and I started studying a lot. I wanted to go deeper and understand what’s behind the fashion system, so I founded a blog dedicated to emerging talents and specialized in digital communication.
Music is one of my biggest passions since ever, my mum is a vocal coach, so music has always been there.
We are grateful for our individual visions as they fit perfectly and felt into place when we started our project together.
What’s the vision for Blekkett?
We exactly know where we want to be. It’s because we have a clear vision of our goals and dreams. We work to accomplish them. Blekkett can be a landmark for all those people who want to become their best version. We are striving to build the biggest community possible, helping creatives unleash their full potential by giving them all the tools they need to do it.
Our motto is indeed “Talent is given, Success is produced”.
What do you enjoy the most about running Blekkett? What do you find most challenging?
Blekkett began back in 2015, but only since 2020 is a brand and company.
We are like freshmen in high school, with a dean mindset!
Since this is the beginning, the most challenging and enjoyable thing is giving our best to see grow our company, understanding how we can improve our assets, what we do right and what we do wrong.
There’s no instruction manual to success, we simply enjoy the ride to it.
What advice would you give someone trying to start their own brand?
Surround yourself with great people, whom share your same vision and have your same core values.
Be bold, work with macro patience and micro speed.
Absolutely mute all voices around you and listen to who you are.
What can people expect next from Blekkett?
We just launched our first t-shirt, and we’re working to start our clothing brand.
Producing records is a big deal now, since we are looking for artists to enrich our roaster.
Plus, we are always focused on the wellbeing of our community, so we always create events and promote initiatives for charity, too.

A clothing brand with high quality and great clothing to stand out from the pack, with must wear gear. CEO of SomewhereJugn, Boo was gracious enough to take time to answer some questions for us, for his brand. Below is the interview.
What is SomewhereJugn?
Funny you asked that….. I have a definition
What inspired you to get into fashion?
When I was a teenager I loved to pull up looking fly. I would wear clothes from a lot of different designers and as my age increased so did the price I had to pay for the things I liked. Style goes through so many different phases and I’ve lived through a bunch of them, finally I said I want to be apart of this…. I want to be the guy designing the clothes that make people leave puddles when they step into the building. Don’t slip on the drip!
What’s the vision for SomewhereJugn?
My vision is simple supply a brand that also awakens something in our youth. A brand that makes them feel they can do anything go anywhere and be successful. Somewherejugn wants you to break through the glass ceiling and live limitless.
What do you enjoy the most about running Somewherejugn? What do you find most challenging?
I enjoy working with my dope design team, putting projects together and the travel opportunities. My brand has opened a lot of doors for me to network and meet people I wouldn’t have. Everyday is a new challenge guess that is part of ownership. Not everyone in the industry is honest and you suffer just as many losses as you do success. I’m a believer and I definitely believe in myself it’s the Leo in me.
What advice would you give someone trying to start their own brand?
Have Money I repeat have money. In all seriousness though be committed and don’t expect things to happen overnight. Do you research not just on materials but also what’s hot in the market. Last but not least network don’t count out the college kid that wants to draw a design because they aren’t known and don’t count on the established guy just because he’s established. Be open to making connections with everyone.
What can people expect next from SomewhereJugn?
I’m currently working on launching my summer collection so keep your eye out. You can see all new items on my website www.somewherejugn.com and I’m really excited about a collaboration in the works with By Karen Beystedt. Checkout my merchandise in The Lost Warhols in the Beverly Center Los Angeles level 6. Tell her I sent you.
