Irina Shayk Finds A New Way to Wear A Velour Tracksuit
The supermodel put a fresh spin on an old school trend thanks to statement footwear….


In case you hadn’t noticed, the velour tracksuit is back. The two-piece style that helped define the look of the early aughts is experiencing a renaissance thanks to nostalgic celebrities and Gen Z admirers too young to have tried the craze during its heyday. Whether it’s Kim Kardashian West and Paris Hilton reviving the look for SKIMS or die-hard Juicy Couture fans pulling their vintage finds out of storage, the plush separates are newly relevant. Still, the way to wear velour in 2020 is different than it was two decades ago and fashion-forward stars have been finding fresh ways to update the idea. Case in point: when Irina Shayk stepped out in Manhattan this weekend wearing a dove gray set from SKIMS, she elevated the supermodel kept things casual except for a pair of knee-high leather boots from By Far.
In the past, tracksuits were typically paired with comfortable shoes. Uggs, sneakers, or even Crocs were the default during the days of paparazzi strolls outside Kitson. These days the penchant for mixing sporty fare with luxury—think Rihanna pairing her sweatpants with crystal-embellished Manolo heels as she did in 2019 or Jennifer Lopez repeatedly toting her Birkin to the gym—opens the door for experimentation. Shayk’s slate-colored, pointy-toe boots would be eye-catching no matter the outfit but contrasted with her velour; they stood out even more. With her pants tucked in and the addition of a zebra print mini-purse and matching mask, Shayk avoided all throwback associations and found a new way to tackle an old school trend.

A$AP Rocky Turned An Entire Manchester City Kit Into His Album Rollout
A$AP Rocky doesn’t do album rollouts quietly, and this one recruited an entire Premier League club to help. Manchester City, PUMA, and Rocky teamed up on a limited apparel run tied to “Don’t Be Dumb,” his 2026 album, timed around his September 5th show at Co-op Live.
The centerpiece is a long-sleeve PUMA King jersey in black and archive gold, with “DON’T BE DUMB” running down the sleeve and AWGE branding worked in throughout. A bold “MANCHESTER” graphic covers the back. Fans could also add limited “A$AP 11” name-and-number printing onto the club’s actual Home, Away, or Third kits, while supplies lasted at retail.
There’s a players-only version too, and it never went up for sale. That one sticks closer to City’s usual sky-blue identity, with its own sleeve detailing and back graphic — the kind of piece that exists purely because a handful of people got lucky.
The whole rollout kicked off with a one-night pop-up on September 4th, when PUMA turned a spot in Manchester’s Northern Quarter into a pop-up cafe for the night, mixing football, music, and street style into one room before the wider release hit the stadium store the next morning. Some of those jerseys even came with golden tickets to the concert or that Saturday’s match.
Rocky has called the project true to his own design language, and it’s not even his only club collaboration this cycle — a similar drop with AC Milan landed around the same time. At this point, the line between fashion week and matchday has basically disappeared.

Quavo And Lids Are Going All In On Atlanta With Their New Cap Pack
Quavo has never been shy about his hat obsession, and Lids just gave him another outlet for it. Their new “Atlanta” pack drops September 12th, marking another round in a partnership that’s been running strong since 2019.
The collection is a love letter to the city, spread across three very different caps. One mashes up pinstripes, script lettering, and Braves branding into a single design, working navy, red, white, and light blue into the mix. Another goes the opposite direction entirely — fully iced out in crystal detailing, done up in black and red, with both the Falcons and the Braves showing up in the design. The third strips things back to an old-school “ATL” trucker cap in red, white, and gold, the kind of understated piece that lets the city’s name do the talking.
None of this is new territory for Quavo. He’s talked before about waiting on hat releases as a kid, and that same excitement seems to be what’s kept this partnership going years past most celebrity collabs. His earlier Lids run leaned on one moment — the Braves’ 1995 World Series win — but this pack pulls from the city’s whole sports history instead of just one highlight.
Lids has called Quavo one of the rare voices who can blend music, fashion, and sports without it feeling forced, and this drop backs that up. Given how fast his past releases have moved, Atlanta might want to set an alarm for September 12th.
