Being environmentally conscious doesn't necessarily mean ending up with a product like the Smart Car that is—be honest—heinous looking. New Balance went back to the drawing board with their new line of newSKY shoes and ended up with a shoe made up of fabric constructed of 95% recycled PET plastic bottles. The recycled ... continue reading
Thanks in no small part to Judd Apatow, Michael Cera and Jonah Hill, geeks/nerds/whatever-you-want-to-call-dudes-that-didn't-play-varsity-in-high-school are cool again. You know what that means? Liking Star Wars is cool again - no thanks to Hayden Christensen and those "other" movies. Adidas decided to make a pair ... continue reading
It might be a rare occasion, but if you have ever dropped your pocket knife in a pond while out camping, you know the annoyance involved in retrieving that sucker. The Cork Knife eliminates any fear of cutting rope on the side of a lake or whittling wood over a creek while you're on your next trip. The cork handle ... continue reading
Nike has always been at the top of the pile (or bottom, depending on perspective) when it comes to shoes that do more than just look good. The LunarGlide+ 3 is no different. Using a combination of science, design and pure black magic, Nike has managed to create a shoe that looks like a combination of a moon shoe and ... continue reading
We don't consider ourselves sneakerheads by any stretch of the imagination, but we have been known to indulge in a few extra unnecessary pairs of kicks simply because they looked good. If you think about it, it's pretty easy to rationalize the expenditure because we don't dabble in comic books and action figures anymore. ... continue reading
It’s already August. You’re not going to let the last few weeks of summer pass you by, are you? If you don’t have a pool, hit up someone you know that does and have them fire up the grill. Just be sure not to show up empty handed...or wearing a speedo. This poolside look, that includes slim board shorts, an on ... continue reading
Tyvek is the building material equivalent of duct tape. Come to think of it, if more things were made of the durable, waterproof material that coats houses pre-siding and FedEx uses to ship stuff, the world probably wouldn't need as much duct tape. You can find Tyvek wallets and bags and sacks and packing material ... continue reading
We're not going to waste your time by pretending that everyone reading this isn't already intimately familiar with the designs that John Varvatos has materialized for Converse. The latest pair of Converse by John Varvatos high tops a little less run-of-the-mill and a little bit more rock star. The contrast between ... continue reading
Clarks has been putting their iconic Desert Boot on the feet of men everywhere since approximately the beginning of time.

If you’re fashion-forward, when you hear the brand name of UGG, what likely comes to mind are the fuzzy, sheepskin boots the ladies sport year-round. There’s a reason these boots are so popular – effortless comfort and style. ... continue reading
Hybrids get a bad wrap. Automobile hybrids are great on gas mileage, but they tend to be ugly. Hybrid bikes have a jack of all trades, master of none sort of relationship with enthusiasts. They're convenient, but they're not fixies or mountain bikes. Most hybrids just represent an inability to commit to something one ... continue reading
It's been a long time since we lived in a world when a man couldn't appreciate a quality pair of shoes as much as a woman. Cards on the table, we probably actually own more pairs than she does and it doesn't bother us one bit. We like looking good. When did that become a crime? Even though there are lots of loafers, ... continue reading
Tennis is the one sport that Michael Jordan never seemed to pick up. Luckily for tennis aficionados worldwide there is Stan Smith. With a 3:1 career record and 36 career titles he's the racquet wielding equivalent of Jordan. But you know what, we care about that a whole helluva lot less than the line of iconic Adidas ... continue reading
When you picture a pair of Vans you have a certain image that pops into your head. It's kind of like thinking about an Ed Hardy shirt only way, way better. We're going to ask you to suspend that thought and take a glance at this pair of Vans Rata Vulc Sneakers. Yeah, they are not what you were thinking. Sure, they ... continue reading
Tretorn Nylites. Vans Authentics. Chucks. Air Force Ones. We could write a list a mile long of all the different pairs of sneakers we'd like to wear on a regular basis. Your list is probably similar to ours and therein lies the problem. Lots of men have lists that are very similar because there are only so many different ... continue reading
Nike has been making sneakers since approximately the beginning of time (it was actually 1971, but that's not important) and has developed quite a name for themselves (and Phil Knight) in the process. Questionable business practices aside, they really are the name to beat when it comes to more contemporary, weekend ... continue reading
