In Anderson's opinion it’s not Summertime in New York City until you hear the jingle of the ice-cream truck coming down your block. Anderson wanted to create a sneaker design that felt nostalgic for people of all ages. Popular soft serve flavors of “Vanilla Cone” and “Chocolate Cone” serve as the focal points for this team-up. The former colorway is fitted with pink and blue leather overlays that are symbolic of rainbow sprinkles while the latter is stylized with brown logos and overlays to mimic that delectable cocoa aesthetic. Both pairs also come with insoles that feature sprinkles and melting ice cream graphics.
The Ice Cream Truck Collection will be released exclusively via Foot Locker and Champs Sports on August 25, 2022. The MSRP is set at $120 USD each.
Futhermore, Foot Locker will be celebrating the launch though an event at its Washington Heights community store, located at 605 West 181 st St, New York, New York on August 25 from 4pm-7pm EDT to shop the kicks, meet myself in person, and enjoy ice cream by Mikey Likes It. There will also be a limited edition Anderson Bluu Ice Cream Flavor.

Spotify said "
When the initial Mt Rushmore of 2010s Rap viral moment happened via Twitter, we knew it had become so big that it deserved a physical installation in the real world,” says Cheryl from Spotify. “Nicki, Cole, Kendrick, and Drake came of age at the beginning of the 2010s, setting the tone for hip-hop in the streaming era, and now 12-years later they are each legends in their own right and pillars of the genre. These murals are a celebration of their contributions, and we hope their locations in each artists’ hometown is meaningful to them and their fans.”
Anderson Bluu was chosen to design the New York mural to represent the Queens local Nicki Minaj.

Anderson Bluu and Foot Locker teamed up to create a sneaker with Diadora entitled The Wine Collection. The collection is made up of two iconic Diadora silhouettes. The Maverick “Chardonnay” is dressed in soft green suedes; the color resembles the green grape skin used to produce white wine. It also features faint yellow hues on the tongue, laces, mid-foot logo, and speckled midsole detailing. On the other hand, the N.9002 “Cabernet” is done up in rich blue suedes to salute the dark navy grapes used in the creation of red wine.
We also have the Anderson Bluu logo on the left heel (Anderson is left-handed) and a grape graphic on the right. Each pair is completed by premium cork insoles with branded hits for a direct nod to wine bottle corks and packaged in a shoebox that mirrors a wine barrel.
Below are the details from the upcoming release.
