Summer 2021 is winding down, which means we should all be taking advantage of the beautiful weather outside while we still can. We know it’s been insanely hot out so wearing your best outfit just to sweat through it may not always seem like the best idea, but you can’t let the temperatures stop you from looking your best when you step out.
Luckily, there are plenty of solid releases to consider that are on the release calendar this week. Joe Freshgoods has dropped off his appropriately-named “Outside Clothes” capsule with New Balance, Aleali May has some workwear-inspired items released with Jordan Brand, Supreme is launching the first items from its latest season, and AWGE rekindles its partnership with Needles. Other highlights this week include some new fitteds from Fear of God, the latest from Palace, a denim collab from Evisu and Ev Bravado, and more.
Check out all of this week’s best style releases below.
