The Dream Team = J SHOES + MICA

J SHOES and the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA, http://www.mica.edu/) team up for another wonderful fantastically creative collaboration! More photos will be released soon but for now...

MICA Film & Fibers Major, Aaron Barlow, past winner of our Half-Pair Contest , turned his creation (made out of our shoes) into a fashionable t-shirt which will be featured in NYLON magazine, on http://www.nylonmag.com/, and bid on during an auction at a NYLON L.A. event!

Sure, we could have just used fabric paint and threw on some beads - but WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD WE when there's amazing fresh talent at MICA?

P.S. I heart you Aaron!

J SHOES + Brooklyn Industries + Athlete = PURE AWESOME

To much international acclaim, British indie rock band, Athlete, makes their stateside debut with their new album Black Swan.




As a warm welcome, Brooklyn Industries, a visionary artist-owned and operated clothing and bag team, collaborated with Athlete in a "picture within a picture" photo campaign.

Now putting that all aside...

I'm all ready pretty excited about Athlete. Then I was stunned by the beautiful photography in the campaign. What put me over the top is that J SHOES helped outfit the band! Check out the popular J SHOES Montana in Dark Brown in this pic.

For a behind-the-scenes look at the Brooklyn Industries and Athlete photo campaign plus a sneak peek at Athlete's music video, click here.

The Pants Microbrewery - Cordarounds.com

I cannot possibly describe how unbelievably cool these guys are.

These Californian taste-makers operate like a pants microbrewery - they put out limited edition designs every week and ONLY sell them online at cordarounds.com. The origin of their name? They make corduroy that goes around instead of up and down. Hence, Cordarounds.com.

Including revolutionary inventions such as "Bike to Work" pants that sport light-reflecting material in the inner ankle and back pockets, Cordarounds offers unique pants, jackets, sweaters, blankets, and any other cool ideas that come out of their San Francisco design shop.

So, imagine how excited I was when I found out that these awesome fashion inventors love J SHOES and featured the Mojaves in their catalog!
