Why You Should Recycle

Can you believe that these sneakers were made entirely out of material constructed from recycled plastic bottles? Called the newSKY, New Balance's bit to be environmentally friendly also looks rather cute don't you agree?



I don't know how I would feel rocking a pair of plastic shoes. I won't even go near Crocs. But these could change my mind for a spell. I think. Word is, if they actually do get released to the public, the newSKY would be hitting the streets in October. Do you like them blaggers and blaggettes?

New Balance Royal Wedding

New Balance has made only 10 pairs of the sneakers below to commemorate the highly publicized Royal Wedding, which is scheduled to happen on April 29 ( most of will be recovering from Back To The City so...). Tell us what you think of them?

This post may expose Dude for being a bit of a nerd but so be it. One of dudes favourite designers Jeff Staple ( who is responsible for the Pigeon Collaborations pictured below ) has a series of webisodes where he interviews people that he thinks are inspiring called "jeffstaple 1-2-1". In the fifth instalment he interviews 13thWitness.

13thWitness is a photographer/filmer who I got familiar with via the Maestro Knows webisodes and his photography is crazy!!! He has also become one of Dudes favourite photographers. Peep some of his pics below.



Now that you know why Dude digs them, here is the video. Peep!!
