Naming new trends is becoming increasingly difficult. The wide variety that streetwear has to offer, and the ever-growing range of what is considered “IN” no longer go hand-in-hand with unnecessarily restrictive labeling. This is one of the reasons why the segmentation of fashion is increasingly becoming more focused on purpose, activities and interests. In the past year, tourism has grown considerably as one of these categories. Trail and outdoor silhouettes of stylish sneakers are no longer an exception

We are used to perceiving everyday events in the context of the situations. Does this mean that if chaos reigns for long enough, it can be considered the normal, harmonious state? The brand Undercover, who is releasing their Overbreak SP model with Nike, approaches this paradox as part of their identity. The Overbreak SP is coming out this Friday in two colourways. Immediately after the announcement of the new Nike x Undercover collaboration by the Japanese designer Jun Takahashi, it was obvious that th

Sofia is a Slovak from Senica, the youngest of the blond sister trio of the Ravasovy family. Not only can she dance like a goddess, she also turns second-hand clothes into trendy pieces. We talked about her upcycling process but also about dancing. How long have you been upcycling clothes? Sometime after high school, I started learning to sew with the help of my mother. Before that, I used to just buy a lot of things in secondhand shops and beg her to adjust them according to my ideas (laughs).

The day of love is here again. Due to restrictions, this year’s Valentine's Day can’t happen as it typically would, with romantic dinners or parties, but as we have grown used to in the past months, we have to think of alternatives in our homes. However, that doesn’t mean it has to be boring. If there still exist films, which you haven’t seen even after these long periods of isolation, you have a big advantage, because today’s Valentine’s recommendations revolve around the magic of some of the best roma

2020 was the year of running for many of us. New sneakers followed the same trend, featuring more breathable parts, aerodynamic shapes and utilising suspension technologies then ever before. The running trend took the fashion industry by storm, and thanks to that, we can put on some of the best retro futuristic models such as the Asics Gel-Kayano 14, which is currently being released after 13 years. In 2008, when the 14th model from the successful Gel-Kayano series was introduced, running magazine Runne

Just like every pencil case needs a pen and a pencil, every wardrobe needs at least one pair of Converse. Despite the ever increasing number of colors, over time some people could start to get bored with the iconic silhouette. Converse have now addressed this eventuality, by bringing a new generation of Chuck Taylors’ called CX. NEW COMFORT, NEW MOVEMENT Converse presents its innovation simply but concisely. Quite simply, they took the most popular sneakers on the planet and upgraded them with a dyna

From a long term perspective, Asics is dedicated to creating sneakers that combine elegance with history and research. The Gel-Lyte III silhouette belongs to the upper echelon of sneakers, and despite celebrating its 30th birthday last year, both new and OG colorways still get regularly released - right now, for example. Even 30 years ago, the GL3’s were ahead of their time, but the ideal time to step out of the “running sneaker” box and transfer to the fashion segment apparently came now. The two ne

The community around Footshop is made up of extremely talented people and it would be a shame to not present their art to the world through clothing collections.  This was the reason for starting our Footshop Local Artist series, in which we work with artists from cities flying the Footshop flag, and create a joint collection, presenting the unique style of each artist. This time we visited Bucharest. To be completely honest, we were originally planning on releasing the third Footshop Local Artist colle

The year 2020 made it quite obvious which sneakers are in and which are not. Global popularity revolved around Dunks, Yeezys, Japan, collabs and pop culture (*autotuned voice “It’s lit!”). The anticipated pieces for 2021 are still riding this wave. HYPE, INNOVATION AND THE FUTURE In general, innovation is expected in the world of sneakers, most notably a continuation of the global trend of sustainability. The mindset with which brands have been working in recent years, putting out an exponentially in
