May contesting ending--win your WNBA tix!


Just a quick reminder that it's the end of May, and the end of the May contest! adidas gave us 4 free tix (and some of them are practically front row) to every single WNBA team. Win yours by reviewing a sneaker store near you... Click here for the simple details. (And if you don't live near a WNBA team, you can win an FSF t-shirt, and just feel good about adding to FSF's City Guide, the only sneaker guide with an eye out for the females...)

Barefoot Week Soles4Souls Event

Hey all,
June 1-7 is "Barefoot Week" put on by Soles4Souls, the nonprofit that donates thousands of kicks to kids-in-need in the US and abroad. This upcoming week they're raising kicks for the cyclone victims in Myanmar, as well as donating more than 325,000 pairs of new shoes to needy people in five cities: New Orleans, Atlanta, Miami, Detroit, and Taylor, Arizona (Indian Reservation).

Check their website to find out how you can donate kicks or loot, or get involved in a bigger way... www.souls4soles.com You know you got some extra kicks!

Soleism party DC


Customizer extraordinaire Imani from artistic-sole.com is kicking off her hottest custom collection ever with her very own sneaker party. It's in DC, so head to the capitol if you're not already there! She's even got legendary sneakerhead/DJ Bobbito spinning... mark your calendars. (FSF t-shirt giveaways and other prizes as well...)

bdga x rbk escape pack...today!


One of the most anticipated Reebok dual label sneaker projects is set for release today, Saturday, May 31st 11AM at Bodega.

Designed by Bodega, the Escape Pack was inspired by the renegade, borderline legal, semi-dangerous, insanely cheap, revolutionary, independently run bus lines that link Boston Chinatown to NYC Chinatown. Retailing for $200, the pack includes everything you need to escape to another city for an overnight excursion. An exquisitely designed Reebok Omni Pump Lite is the centerpiece of the project featuring a luminous jade and charcoal colorway, detailed with a map of the route embossed on the ankle collar. A matching 5-panel cap by ELM and tee are also included in the pack. Various essentials including, but not limited to, mix-tapes, rolling papers, paint markers, and good luck charms round out the contents of this extremely limited release.

Only 100 Escape packs have been produced. Within ONE of the packs is a GOLDEN TICKET upgrade. The lucky winner of the GOLDEN TICKET will get airfare to anywhere in the continental US, as well as a suitcase filled with past limited releases from Reebok.

Sorry for the late notice! They might have all escaped already!

Concepts Nike SB Lobster


Dropping this Saturday, only at Concepts! Comes with some great swag: the lobster claw band, a t-shirt, a condiment pack with fork, bib, wet naps, etc, extra laces and a poster. Only 200 made, and the first 50 buyers will get the special make up wooden box. Plus the release party is being catered by Legal Seafood! What more could you want?

And since I've been slacking on my foot and web searches, I have to credit this info not to my neighbors at Concepts (I haven't even checked out their new store location, shame!), but to a new blog I just heard from: eflifestyle.com (Expressive Frontier). It's got a fun mix of music, fashion, kicks, business and even a dash of politics. Check them out...
