adidas Tech L2 out now

My godson just got his back-to-school sneaks at Famous Footwear, and while I'm not a big chain store shopper myself, I have to acknowledge that you can get nice kicks there at prices that don't kill your chances of getting a second pair (or third!?). It also got me thinking about back-to-school shopping. So to our readers who are in school, tell us what you'll be wearing on day 1!

Here's one option that's quite light on your feet and fairly light on your wallet too: the new adidas Tech L2 from their "Style Essentials" collection. Out in both boys' and men's sizes, so adidas isn't leaving out the fiends with small feet! ($75 at Famous Footwear.)

Sneaker party in Gothenburg, Sweden

For all you swedes that didn´t know and for everyone that is visiting Gothenburg, go to this event. It´s like a smaller Sneaker Pimps!!!

As a huge Simpsons fan I had to post these.....

Since the world’s most popular towering blue-haired stunner, Marge Simpson, had played muse to Nike and produced the Nike “Marge Simpson” Dunk-Hi SB, it seems only natural that her husband join her on the sneaker side eventually. Nike just released the “Homer Simpson” Dunk-Hi in Simpson’s Voltage Yellow skin color paired with Midnight Blue accents. The leather and suede uppers are perforated for extra ventilation and pulled together with orange laces. If you have a Marge, it’s time to get her a Homer.
Thanks to freshness for info and pics!

Piece de Resistance

Piece de Resistance is a new side hustle from women's clothing brand Princess of the Posse. Piece de Resistance specializes in vintage clothing and it's reasonably priced. For all the fiends who love them some vintage, this is definitely the store you wanna check out!

Candace Parker player editions

Last year Candace Parker did something no other basketball player has done, whether in the NBA or WNBA: She won an NCAA championship, an Olympic gold and the WNBA MVP and Rookie of the Year! And adidas still hasn't honored her with her own kicks! Crazy. If you go to the adidas website and type in Candace Parker, 4 men's Tennessee shirts come up. Why sign her if you're gonna treat her like that??

On the bright side, she's back on the court (after giving birth in May to a baby girl) and rocking some new adidas "CP Commander LT"s that at least have her Ace 3 sig on the tongue. Here they are:


No word of them getting out to us, but if they do I hope they have the TN colorway!

Camper Shoes @ Capsule trade show

These sandal styles were all done in a collaborative fashion with different people in fashion and art. While looking more fashion than function the rep told me that the shoes were as functional as a traditional sandal

A slightly different take on the sneaker-shoe concept

These flats are here because of the handiwork involved in them. All artwork shown is embroidered on and they are "fraternal" twin images on the shoes.

A micro pref boat shoe? A dressed up slip on Van? Whatever the explanation for them, Fee wants a pr. size 8.5w/7m.

Sneaker Pimps DC

Got to love an event that this is the first thing you see...

Some of the custom work displayed @ Sneaker Pimps is extremely labor intensive. Fee's adhd won't let her color, but props to this piece's designer.

Imani repping Artistic Sole and Art Whino preps the palette for a sneaker themed canvas. Not only does she do sneakers and canvas, she also tattoos in DC @ Pinz n Needlez. The girl gets BUSY!

Imani's finished work for the evening...not bad for a semi lit area in under 3hrs huh ; D

Weapons Old and New

Converse recently invited me to design my own Converse Weapon, making me think back to the good old days of Larry Bird and Magic. I didn't go green (despite being a big Celtics fan), but I did have fun reppin' another squad close to my heart...


Make your own at Converse.com.

If you don't want to rewrite history by putting your own touch on the '86 Weapons, then maybe you want to ball in Converse's new "balls technology". Their Weapon Evo uses the balls in the heel to give you what looks like great padding, stability and response.



Available this Fall. Only problem, the smallest size is a men's 7.5...
