3. Air Jordan 1 Mid “Black Palomino”
A black-based take on the AJ1 Mid with a leather, synthetic leather and textile upper and Nike Air cushioning. It works with autumn layers well past October 31. See the AJ1 Mid “Black Palomino”.

Patent leather gives the classic AF1 a glossy finish that looks sharp at a night-time party. See the AF1 “Black Patent”.
5. adidas AE 2 All-Star “Lucid Orange”
If you want pumpkin orange, this is it. Anthony Edwards’ basketball shoe uses a Lightstrike midsole and Boost cushioning, so it also plays on court. See the AE 2 “Lucid Orange”.

A chunky, Y2K-inspired runner in dark tones for a moodier look. See the 9060 “Black Castlerock”.
