A Fine Pair
Something new from Nike, maybe, and Adidas plays it cool this week in 3D printed shoes.

As reported on footwear trendspotting site Sole Retriever, Nike appears to have accidentally posted a new purple color Air Max 1000 on Zellerfeld, before taking them down again. Thought to release later this year, they'd join black as the second color of the high-profile 3D printed footwear release. Also on Sole Retriever, there's an update on Adidas' Climacool fully 3D printed slip-on sneakers, which are coming soon in a cool Grey Four variant in grey with contrasting black Adidas stripes.

Stock Alert
It’s not all happening at Amazon today.

Polymaker’s wild Restock Day sale is also live, knocking a blanket 35% off sitewide - no coupon code necessary. On top of that, the manufacturer is offering free shipping and 5% cashback on orders.

Napkin math tells me you'd be looking at savings of over $70 on ten spools of Panchroma Matte PLA, or over $100 off a 3 kg spool of Fiberon PPS-CF10, for example. If you were planning to stock up on filament anytime soon, this is the time, and Polymaker is the place. Until October 10, that is. That’s when the sale ends.

Under pressure from groups seeking transparency about the Centauri Carbon’s underlying software, Elegoo has published the “source code” for the Elegoo OS the printer uses.
