Nike Reveals New Day Of The Dead Collection
Every year, people throughout Mexico celebrate the Day Of The Dead between October 31st and November 2nd. The purpose of the holiday is to pay homage to those who have died through the creation of altars. It’s a holiday that is packed with rich culture and tradition. As a way to celebrate these festivities, Nike has consistently come through with a new pack of sneakers, every single Fall. In 2020, Nike is keeping up with this trend as they recently revealed the entire Day Of The Dead collection, just a week out from its official release.
In the images below, you can see that the Beaverton Brand has chosen the Air Jordan 1, Nike DBreak Type, Nike Blazer Mid, and Nike Air Max 90 as the four sneakers to be a part of the collection. Each model is filled with vibrant colors and patterns that speak to the culture involved in the Holiday. If you’re someone who celebrates these festivities and you like the designs below, copping a pair will certainly be a no-brainer.
This pack will be dropping as of next week on October 15th, through the Nike SNKRS App. As always, let us know what you think, and keep it locked to HNHH for more updates from the sneaker world.

Kenton Hall & The Necessary Measures unveils a big record on a small budget with “The Sun Shone Down”
Kenton Hall and The Necessary Measures‘ latest release, “The Sun Shone Down,” is a huge track and proudly wears independent artistry. Conceived to make a “big record on a small budget,” the track shows how imagination and passion can outweigh studio costs. Each layer, strings, horns, keys, choirs, creates a cinematic yet emotional sound.
The philosophy behind “The Sun Shone Down” is intriguing. Kenton Hall embraces limitations, making collaboration and creativity the currency of the song. The music evokes gratitude. That reflects the amazing people and artistic relationships that shaped the record. It is ambitious for spectacle and emotional impact.
Hall writes songs about the unspoken emotions people feel, conflict, hope, longing, and survival. That authenticity gives the track weight beyond the lush instrumentation. More than just a great sound. Feeling great. Kenton Hall & The Necessary Measures’ personal and expansive song is born of emotional honesty and a richly layered production, reminding us that belief, not budgets, powers some of the biggest records.

The Real Mack The Knife honors memory and spirit with soulful release “Rio Grande de Loíza”
The song “Rio Grande de Loíza” by The Real Mack The Knife is a powerful tribute to Puerto Rico’s history, memory, and sacred spirit. The track transforms nature into something spiritual, intimate, and timeless, inspired by the legendary river and Julia de Burgos’ immortal voice.
The song “Rio Grande de Loíza” has an old, alive vibe from the beginning. River water, moonlight, desire, and cultural memory shape a song that seems to rise from the ground. The Real Mack The Knife uses the river as a living, symbolic being, unlike the original work.
Julia de Burgos gives the piece incredible depth. She sees the river as a witness, a mother, a wound, a mirror, and a prayer throughout the song’s emotional landscape. The literary and spiritual connection gives the track a haunting beauty beyond music.
