The clothing and footwear industry is still a huge burden for planet Earth, so big brands are implementing changes and new rules into their manufacturing processes. In a time frame of several years, these should significantly reduce the ecological footprint left behind the manufacturing processes. Every day is important in deciding Earth’s future, and even the smallest changes for the better have a compounding effect on our home planet’s health. Today, we’re going to talk about the sustainable strategy of

This part of the On Feet series will be a bit different. Usually, you’ll find the most anticipated releases of the week here, captured by Petr ‘Kovo’ Kováč - these sneakers are, for the most part, backed by hype. The problem is that seeing all these pairs of cool sneakers is spoiled by not being able to buy them anymore, as they’re sold out - or they just remind you of your last unsuccessful attempt at winning the raffle. So today, I’ll instead be writing about three sneakers that are readily available and

After what was probably the most striped On Feet episode yet, we’re back with the three best recent drops. Take a closer look at the highly clean AJ 7’s in the Flint colourway, the three-model pack of the adidas ZX6000 and a sustainable version of the Ultraboost 21’s. AIR JORDAN 7 FLINT Since the seventh installment in the Air Jordan series will probably never get as much hype as the 1’s or the 4’s, its hidden beauty gets more unique and exceptional. The newest colourway, titled Flint, combines white

If I said that veganism is a trend, you’d probably close this tab and probably refuse to read a single other post of mine. Being vegan ISN'T a trend. It’s a lifestyle based not only around your diet, but also the products you use. That means cosmetics, clothing, shoes and much more (candles, for example). Vegan products are often more considerate of the environment, because they’re, for example, not made from real leather or other materials that burden our planet. Right now, sustainability and the environm

The extraordinary Air Jordan V Toro Bravo are guaranteed to make an immediate impression. And after taking a 12 year hiatus, they're back. The man behind the design is none other than Tinker Hatfield, Nike's designer who worked with Michael Jordan on other legendary silhouettes such as the AJ3 and the AJ11. We documented Tinker's work in our article full of information about the release, as well as a video showcasing growth and a tireless desire to improve, which are values closely associated to not only t

If your cliché detectors go off the charts while reading this post I’m sorry, but I just had to. New silhouettes from the ZX series have been releasing fairly often during the past two years, but so far, I haven’t registered such a high and consistent count of really good models. In fact, three of them made the traditional weekly selection of the best releases. Now, you can admire them along with the highly hyped adidas x Bape collab or the new Nike Air Pegasus in this week’s batch of on feet photos. Enjoy

Traditionally, Star Wars Day is celebrated on May 4th, as a reference to Obi Wan Kenobi’s immortal quote, “may the Force be with you” (get it?). This year, Footshop teamed up with (slightly unconventionally) LEGO for the occasion - we’ve prepared some inspiration for your outfits, as well as several important times Star Wars influenced the world of streetwear in these past few years. Last year, when LEGO appeared on Footshop’s website for the first time, side by side with highly limited sneakers, it mig

Choosing the right winter/fall jacket is always a daunting task - I think I can speak for everyone, when I say we want to keep warm; we want to look good and we basically want our jacket to match our whole wardrobe. Let’s be honest, a quality winter jacket is usually a big investment - and it should be worth it. So when you buy an expensive jacket, the question “how do I wash this without destroying it?” usually pops up. Most winter jackets are made from special outdoor materials you need to care for to ma

At Footshop we are actively trying to make the planet a better place, and we do this not only in the form of various projects, but also in our work and personal lives. The latest collaboration between adidas and Sean Wotherspoon, called SuperEarth, inspired us to team up with the Salvation Army to make the people they help a little happier. We made patchwork blankets from cuts of fabric, which were given to homeless people, together with respirators and handkerchiefs. The sun was shining, the birds were

This week’s On Feet selection includes representatives of three brands that vastly differ in style, appearance, materials and origin, taking us on a journey from Germany across Japan all the way to the United States - this might very well be the most diverse On Feet yet. Before we start, a word of caution: the photos below may cause side effects such as spending too much money on sneakers. Enjoy! ADIDAS CAMPUS 80S SOUTH PARK TOWELIE I did say we’re going to start our journey in Germany in the first p

Over a century ago, in 1898, a Finnish company named Karhu, which means bear, started making beer. Although the only thing they have in common with the sneaker brand is their name, I suppose you could crack open a cold one and keep yourself hydrated while sporting in the new Karhu All Around Pack - the brand’s history is closely connected to decathlons for over 100 years now. Karhu is unparalleled in the ability to profile itself in the best possible ways. The brand’s history closely resembles universit
