North West Spotted In A Crocs-Inspired Yeezy Shoe

June 28, 2019. 2 Comments

Kanye West often previews shoe models on himself and family members, and it looks like this week it was North West‘s turn to try out a new model.

Spotted on an outing with Kim Kardashian, West’s shoe took design elements from Yeezy’s 500 and 700 models though rather than a nylon upper, the shoe was constructed out of the same EVA foam Crocs use to make its famed clogs.

West taking inspiration from Crocs makes a lot of sense. The brand has been on a rebound as of late as the generation that wore them as children have grown up and are returning to them as adults. It doesn’t hurt that the low-priced, simple foam shoe functions as a punkish push back on endlessly hyped sneakers.

At the same time, Crocs has upped its marketing game and has increased its brand equity through collaborations with labels including Balenciaga, Alife, Christopher Kane and musician Post Malone.

Check out West wearing the shoe below.

Dutch designer Daniëlle Cathari has been announce Dutch designer Daniëlle Cathari has been announced as Kith Women's creative director. Cathari’s first collection will launch in 2024. She will lead design for Kith Women collections, a noteworthy moment marked by the news Kith Women is opening a stand-alone store located at 644 Broadway in Kith's first orginal store, opened in 2011. The store will include a flower and coffee shop and will open on Dec. 15th 

Cathari was in her third year of stuides a the Amsterdam Fashion Institute, when she won the VFiles Fashion show in 2017, the first student of her school to do so. Her colorful collection of upcycled vintage Adidas tracksuits caught the eye of the brand who reached out to her a year later to create a capsule inspired by her runway. The same collection also landed Cathari on Kith founder Ronnie Fieg's radar. 

Fieg made the connection to Cathari through Aimé Leon Dore founder and creative director Teddy Santis, who was friendly with her and knew Fieg was looking for someone to lead creatives for Kith Women. 

Commenting on the hire, Kith founder Ronnie Fieg said, "I’ve always wanted to offer women the same experience that we we offer men, that they can shop the brand and footwear on the same level; but I’ve had the struggle of not knowing how to communicate it the same way and emotionally connect to it in the same way and wanted to make sure the person that we brought on board could wear and live through the product they create. That they eat, breathe, and live the brand inside and out.”

Launched in August '22, @rumors.ae boasts an assortment of 8 scents that cleverly blend lighthearted, tongue-in-cheek humor in presentation with deep and complex fragrances. While playful in its themes, this collection isn't reminiscent of fruity or sweet scents; instead, its floral-themed packaging exudes sophistication and cosmopolitan vibes. Our top picks are 'She Said That', 'Whispers' and Love&War. 

Currently, Rumors is not globally available yet, It's a brand to keep an eye on!

Scott Sasso, the founder of #10Deep, announced his Scott Sasso, the founder of #10Deep, announced his departure from the streetwear brand he established 28 years ago in 1995. Renowned for pioneering captivating graphics such as the Knuckle Ring Tee, among other iconic designs, the brand achieved success by crafting impactful designs inspired by a fusion of hip hop, NYC skate culture and social consciousness.
 
Announcing the news on X, Sasso wrote, "It is done. What happened to MeccaUSA? What happened to AlphaNumeric? What happened to PNB? What happened to 10.Deep? The particulars of the stories are different, but all had 'partnerships' with the same company, and the results ended up being the same.

"Today my ties to 10.Deep were severed once and for all. Big bank, takes little bank. But with what goal? I'm not sure of the answer to that question is. I think of what I've seen with the other brands that share the a similar history."
