On & New Balance's Latest Drops Are Giving Dancing On Clouds Vibes & We're Here For It!
Some shoes are designed to be the pinnacle of fashion, while others are made for peak performance. The best kicks though, are the ones that marry both. If you want to know what walking on clouds feels like – while looking like a cloud-hopping deity – then these new drops from New Balance and On have gotchu. Cloud x FKA Shoe To create an enthralling tribute to mixed-movement mediums and the beauty of defying conventional shoe designs, FKA Twigs initially collaborated with On on the captivating 'The Body Is Art' campaign. The pair are now building on that idea by examining freedom of movement and launching their first-ever full-length collection that includes both clothing and shoes. The collection's pieces and the Jordan Hemingway-shot campaign are enhanced by additional surreal moving images by Zeel Free. Both highlight fluidity and versatility, drawing heavily from Twigs' versatility as an artist and performer. The Cloud x FKA shoe was inspired by dancing. The sleek, light trainer, which is made of woven material with a satin feel, embodies a dance-inspired design. Regarding clothing, the pair offers a collection of athletic pieces in muted hues, including sports bras, cropped hoodies, and track jackets and skorts. The Spring/Summer 2025 On by FKA Twigs capsule collection will be sold on On's official website beginning 26th June, with standard pricing to follow. New Balance ABZORB 2000 'Blue/Grey' After the first sneak peek of the New Balance 2000 ABZORB appeared online earlier this February, when Sao Paolo-based stylist Gustavo Soares shared the retro-futuristic silhouette in a baby blue hue, another colourway emerged. Later this year, New Balance is anticipated to release the 2000 model, which updates the shoe's appearance by fusing modern inspirations with the running shoe style of the early 2000s. This new colourway comes in a light blue upper that contrasts with the gradient grey tones used throughout. It features a streamlined upper silhouette with a breathable mesh upper and synthetic overlays. Along with the grey tints on the insole and 'N' branding, the silver accents on the eyelets, overlays, and full-length ABZORB cushioning system give the shoe a more futuristic appearance. The New Balance ABZORB 2000 'Blue/Grey' is slowly hitting shelves as well as the official website. You can snag a pair for US$170 (~RM727). What's your Reaction? +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0

On and FKA twigs launch first co-designed products
British singer FKA twigs is continuing her collaboration with premium sports band On and this month will see them launching their first collab capsule. 'Building on the creative partnership' behind 'The Body is Art' campaign in which she starred, this capsule is the first co-designed collection between On and FKA twigs. The company said it's a 'milestone in the evolving creative partnership that continues to push the boundaries of movement and self-expression. Inspired by FKA twigs' dynamic lifestyle and passion for training across different disciplines, the collection blends performance and style in a way that mirrors how she moves through the world — from the studio to the street to the stage'. She's helped create both apparel and footwear with pieces 'intended for layering, comfort, and individual styling — with silhouettes designed to transition through different moments of the day'. The footwear meanwhile 'features a dance-inspired silhouette crafted to support freedom of movement'. There's also a campaign creatively directed by FKA twigs and brought to life via photographer Jordan Hemingway with 'surreal moving images' by multimedia artist Zeel Free. Together, the visuals "explore the multifaceted nature of twigs' identity as an artist, performer, and dreamer. She appears suspended in time, gliding through clouds in expressive poses that feel both weightless and timeless. Each look becomes a canvas for transformation, drawing the viewer into a fluid, dreamlike study of form and movement'. Key pieces in the capsule include the Studio Bra FKA, designed with contrast stitching and a low-cut shape and 'delivering a 'no feel' sensation during training'; the Studio Short FKA introduces a new 2-in-1-style silhouette with a skirt front and shorts back in soft fabric; and the Cloud x FKA shoe made from woven material with a satin feel — 'a dance-inspired design made for motion'. Along with other pieces, it all launches via On's webstore on 26 June.

FKA twigs designs 'sensual and strong' sneakers
FKA twigs has co-designed a pair of "sensual and strong" sneakers for activewear brand ON. The 37-year-old pop star teamed up with the company last year as a creative partner and she's starred in several campaigns but has now helped create a new capsule collection which reflects her busy lifestyle including the Cloud x FKA shoe - which retail for £170 - and the singer admits she wanted the pieces to be able to to take her from rehearsals to meetings and studio sessions. She said in a statement: "I live a busy and varied life, often moving between training, meetings, and studio sessions in a single day. I wanted to create pieces that could move with me through those shifts - pieces that feel sensual and strong, and reflect all the different sides of who I am. "This capsule collection is about feeling confident in your body and free to express yourself -- whether you're dancing, creating, or just moving through your day." A statement posted by ON on Instagram added: "A collection that explores movement as a source of constant transformation. Inspired by dance, designed for self-expression." The collection also includes the Studio Bra FKA (£75) which is designed to provide "no feel" comfort as well as the Studio Short FKA (£85) which is a hybrid of shorts and a skirt. Other pieces co-designed by the singer include tights, a long-sleeved T-shirt, a cropped hoodie, a scarf, headband and socks. The capsule collection is due to be released by the end of June. The singer previously revealed she is as meticulous about her beauty regime as she is about her fashion choices, FKA Twigs admitted she has a "vigorous" routine using "healing" products as part of a self-care ritual, telling Harper's Bazaar: "I express myself through ritual; for me it's not really about the end result, it's knowing that every single day I'm doing something to take care of myself." Twigs went on to reveal she uses Amala Pro Retinoic Treatment Oil which is packed full of 23K Gold as well as plant seeds and oils and retails at around £195. She also uses the £515 FaceGym Pro which is described as "a non-invasive facial device that uses electrical muscle stimulation to strengthen, tone and sculpt the face". She said of the gadget: "It basically lifts your face an inch ... it's like a mini facelift." The singer concluded by insisting she now has a much healthier approach to looking after herself, adding: "I used to be really hard on myself to be perfect, or have perfect skin or perfect hair, or be a certain weight. I don't feel like that anymore ... (self-care) alleviates a lot of the pressure of the usual beauty standards that I think we can all fall in a trap with".
