After several years away from the spotlight, Public School NY has officially returned to the runway. As New York Fashion Week kicks off, founders Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne reintroduce the brand with a Fall/Winter 2026 presentation rooted in elevated tailoring and sharp street sensibility. However, beyond the apparel, it was the footwear collaborations that commanded equal attention.
The designers revealed two new projects with Nike and Jordan Brand, signaling that their longstanding partnership with the Swoosh remains intact. According to the duo, a recent encounter with someone wearing their original Air Jordan 15 collaboration reignited the creative spark. That full-circle moment helped inspire a new take on the silhouette. This updated Air Jordan 15 arrives in an all-black execution, extending its dark palette through the midsole and outsole for a more cohesive finish. Early images suggest a premium suede build replaces the mesh-heavy construction seen on their previous releases, adding a more refined edge.
Alongside it, Public School introduced a dramatic rework of the Nike Air Max Goadome. Drenched in black, the rugged classic is transformed with a stitched leather shroud and bold strap detailing, officially dubbed the Nike Air Max Goadome Cowboy Boot. The added hardware and layered construction push the model into fashion-forward territory, blending utilitarian roots with runway-level presence.
While release details remain under wraps, we can expect both the Public School Air Jordan 15 and Nike Air Max Goadome Cowboy Boot collaborations to land during the Fall/Winter 2026 season. Stay tuned for more updates to develop.
