Peter Kováč aka Kovkou and Johanka Kučerová are a brilliant example of the Czechoslovakian background of Footshop. They’ve been a couple for 7 years now and both of them are an inseparable part of the company. Kovkou was there with Peti Hajduček at the very beginning, making the first steps to getting customers. Today, he’s the creative director, while Johanka covers marketing campaigns and projects. If you had to pick an important moment in Footshop’s history you were there for, which one would it be?

On a sunny afternoon, our models have explored the lesser-known streets of the outer districts of Budapest while the dawn of the ever so slightly freezing Fall weather was upon us. The places they visited included hidden harbors and a retro-futuristic bridge decorated with towering white lamp-posts leading to the isle of 'Szúnyog' which bathed in the sun-rays of the golden hour; making it a well-suited place for camping up and throwing an urban-picnic.

The best high street cheat for basics? And which sneakers are the best for DJing all night? You may remember them from our spring Raf Simons campaign, the electronic dynamic duo Fractions. Exclusively for Footshop, they tell us about the impact of 90s music in their production and share their thoughts on fashion and trends. Can you briefly describe yourselves for the people who haven’t yet heard about you? Nikita and Artem, two Russian blokes, living in Prague making highly energetic electronic dance

There’s a fast-growing trend of using real people as models in commercial photography work. It’s a trend that is bringing authenticity back into branded content creation. Truthfully, anyone can be considered a real people model. They can be attractive, unattractive, have tons of piercings and tattoos, be elderly, have a nice body, have a beer belly, or be overweight. In fact, Footshop is about being real & supporting humans for self-expression, where yesterday is gone. We are a bullshit-free comm

Since it’s autumn we’ve given our selection of sneakers and clothing quite an update. As I was browsing through our newest additions, I realized that I’m actually really glad summer’s over. Not that I have anything against it, but autumn footwear’s autumn footwear. So I put together a selection of the best sneakers that arrived at our warehouse during the last week. Here we go. ASICS GT-II The first sneakers to utilize the GEL capsules came out 30 years ago - with them, Asics joined the race to get t

It's our 10th birthday, and with that in mind, we're releasing a new collection of apparel. For the FTSHP x Lousy collab, we teamed up with our friend and photographer, who's been behind many of the lookbooks for our campaigns throughout the past. We built the new collection on the essence of analogue photography. Make 35mm cheap again! The FTSHP x Lousy collab contains three T-shirts and a hoodie, loosely following up on an older series of T-shirts. But this time, we wanted to put the whole thing onto

Not actively trying to be as trendy as possible often ends up being much more stylish than trying too hard. Vans’ new collaboration with Nigel Cabourn, released under their premium Vault division is a perfect example of this. The collection features six new sneakers as well as some vintage-styled apparel and accessories. Who is Nigel Cabourn, you might ask. If this is the first time you’re hearing this name, it definitely isn’t going to be the last. Nigel’s a famous British designer that’s been in the g

The highest-grossing silhouette of all time has added two more pairs to its four-digit long roster of released models. Every cult sneaker has some sort of close relation to a city, like the Nike Air Force 1's and NYC - and the mid-top AF1's that gradually started getting collectively called Jewel are now back. I have to admit that at first glance I wasn't that excited - BUT. One day, they made their way to our office, and I had to acknowledge my mistake. The mid Jewels are great, with each colorway havi

It's getting colder and colder every day, and staying warm and comfortable is more and more important. So this seems like the right time to introduce Dr. Martens' latest solution to the problem, featuring a 1.9" Quad Neoteric sole fitted onto the high and low top versions of their Audrick model. Sometimes, even though you wrap yourself up from head to toe, it still doesn't seem to be enough. That icy feeling starts from the bottom and slowly creeps up, which is why you should prevent this with a pair of

Exactly one year ago, we released our most popular collaboration so far - we teamed up with adidas to recreate a silhouette that was, incidentally, celebrating its 50th birthday. As a result, the Footshop x adidas Superstar “Blueprinting” were born - and right now, this project is making a triumphant return. For the occasion of Footshop’s 10th birthday, we proudly present the highly limited Creator’s Edition. And you can be one of the six lucky owners. Our original collaboration with adidas paid homage
