On Saturday, 4/20, the day that ganja lovers have designated as their own, Nike released its latest nod to their infatuation, issuing the SB Dunk High Walk the Dog kicks. The shoes feature many interesting decoration features, including a brown mark on the outsoles that looks like, well, dog poop. That's just one of many design elements that make the shoes stand out...

Company stores or exclusive giveaway events are awesome ways for employees to show off company pride and get a few freebies (or at least heavily discounted items) in the process. We saw how much demand there was for Tesla merchandise when one of the branches set up a pop-up shop for workers. But what happens…

We will never find ourselves short on traditions in the U.S., and we are always eager to add a few more to our list. Thanks to a partnership between Dunkin’ and Saucony, it is starting to look as if we can come to expect an annual sneaker release in conjunction with the Boston Marathon. For…

In 'Back to the Future Pt. II' we were all promised that, in the future (which is now the past, actually), we'd all have self-lacing shoes. It turned out to be a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy, as Nike made the shoes Marty McFly wore in the year 2015 as a promotional product. As these…

For the opening track on their 1969-issued eponymous debut album, Led Zeppelin chose to blast eardrums with “Good Times, Bad Times.” Five decades after the release, one can easily say that the English rockers have experienced more of the former than of the latter, and Vans is helping to commemorate the nine-tune masterpiece’s anniversary through…

We are pretty fond of misnomers around here, with Frederic Chopin’s “Minute Waltz,” which takes no fewer than 90 seconds to play, among our favorites. Since the Grammy Awards “gift bag” has come to include items valued at more than $30,000, we are tempted to add it to our misnomers list, as that thing has come to fit enough stuff to give Santa’s sack a run for its money...

The internet has given us countless opportunities for education and growth as human beings. We can access information at the touch of a button. Arguments are settled in seconds. We can see metaphorical vaults of historical documentation from a little device in our pocket. It also comes with some double-edged swords, however. The permanence of…

Ever since he obtained megastar status in 2010, many interesting news bits have been afoot in the life of Justin Bieber. Each time the Canadian hitmaker steps out, it seems the press finds itself enthralled with another opportunity to track his existence, no matter if the opportunity has anything to do with music. Thanks to…

If there’s one key takeaway from Post Malone’s first collab with Crocs, it’s that his fans support any and all fashion choices the rapper puts out there. The 23-year-old artist launched his second collaboration with the shoe company last week, and the bright yellow clogs flew off the shelves, selling out in minutes...

The apparel game is all about hype these days. Hype comes from one major source: exclusivity. It’s the reason brands like Supreme and Palace can charge big bucks for items that, on the surface, don't look like anything special. That’s not even taking into account the resale economy, which is its own little cottage industry.…
