SNEAKERSBR X NIKE

Imagine Sneakers BR and Nike Sportswear coming together to release a special collection of dunk low models. What if the kicks came out in such an exclusive way that it used video’s to capture a regional view and better yet the many personalities of a vast group of people? Seriously, wouldn’t it be dope to mix culture from another country such as Brazil with what we know about urban culture, for example the sneaker world? Well, that’s exactly what’s about to happen. “Spreading Sneaker Culture throughout Brazil” is a launch of dunk lows that aims to embrace and symbolize how people within one country may have distinctive personalities and views on life. The blog and graffiti artist, Vinicius Popo will be responsible for traveling through Brazil to increase sneaker culture awareness and he will also record the stories of the people he encounters and share it with the world. Twelve pairs of dunks will be released, and each comes with a nylon bag, t-shirt, extra laces and a lace clip. It might not hit the states right away but definitely be on the lookout for this hot new global project.

BIG SEAN - SUPA DUPA

COME OUT TO PLAY

"COME OUT TO PLAY" is an art show curated by Randy Quiles - co-founder of Fresthetic based in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. It is a tribute to The Warriors, the 1979 cult classic movie from Paramount Pictures. The iconic film serves as an unceremonious interpretation of the diverse collectives that make up Brooklyn and its surrounding boroughs. It is a reminder of the political, social, and economical adversity that each of the boroughs and the individuals within have faced. Brooklyn itself has seen many changes ranging from the gentrification of Williamsburg to the drastic reconstruction of Coney Island. For those that can remember, the Brooklyn we all knew and loved still continues to slip further away over the years no matter how closely we grip it to our chests. Very much like a Warrior we find ourselves stranded and forlorn amid the changes and adversity as we make every attempt to fight our way back to a Brooklyn we once knew…

September 10th - October 7th, Opening Reception on Friday, SEPTEMBER 10th from 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM.
