Choosing the right winter/fall jacket is always a daunting task - I think I can speak for everyone, when I say we want to keep warm; we want to look good and we basically want our jacket to match our whole wardrobe. Let’s be honest, a quality winter jacket is usually a big investment - and it should be worth it. So when you buy an expensive jacket, the question “how do I wash this without destroying it?” usually pops up. Most winter jackets are made from special outdoor materials you need to care for to ma

At Footshop we are actively trying to make the planet a better place, and we do this not only in the form of various projects, but also in our work and personal lives. The latest collaboration between adidas and Sean Wotherspoon, called SuperEarth, inspired us to team up with the Salvation Army to make the people they help a little happier. We made patchwork blankets from cuts of fabric, which were given to homeless people, together with respirators and handkerchiefs. The sun was shining, the birds were

Over a century ago, in 1898, a Finnish company named Karhu, which means bear, started making beer. Although the only thing they have in common with the sneaker brand is their name, I suppose you could crack open a cold one and keep yourself hydrated while sporting in the new Karhu All Around Pack - the brand’s history is closely connected to decathlons for over 100 years now. Karhu is unparalleled in the ability to profile itself in the best possible ways. The brand’s history closely resembles universit

Here at Footshop, we just received a big batch of Swiss running sneakers that, apart from an incredibly comfortable, patented technology providing the smoothest of movements, also features a surprisingly elegant streetwear aesthetic. Let’s take a closer look at On Running. Everyone bases their opinion on specific sneakers based on something else. Including me, and hollowed out midsoles definitely weren’t my thing. So when I met the On Running sneakers for the first time a couple years ago, I wasn’t part

He nimbly moves towards his goal with a furious look in his eyes, unwavered by emotions. His enemy, knowing he has nowhere to hide, accepts defeat as the only possible outcome. We’re not talking about a conflict between a bull and a desperate toreador. This is how the NBA ‘89/90 season looked like, when opposing teams had no choice but to bear witness as Michael Jordan unleashed an endless barrage of dunks and three-pointers upon them.

The third week of April presents us with a combination of high, low, useful and barely usable models. Although Nike may have the most shoes on the list, this time the biggest release is the work of the brand with the three stripes.

ADIDAS ZX 8000 X SEAN WOTHERSPOON „SUPEREARTH“ In recent years,

Fashion magazines bombard me with “socks are trendy!” headlines. But to be honest, if you wear sneakers, you’ve always paid attention to what socks you choose to make them match your fit, while staying comfy all day. In short, they’re a part of your outfit and can often either bring it to perfection or completely wreck it. If you haven’t paid attention to this detail so far, this is the right article for you. We decided to create a complete guide on how to correctly choose and wear socks. LENGTH OF TH

David Strauzz is a visual and street artist. He has a unique, authentic style and creates grandiose paintings, murals and also original projects. Although David has Czech ancestors, his family emigrated to Canada, where he spent most of his life. But according to him, it was pretty boring over there and he soon got hungry for more culture. David spent some time in Boston and returned to his roots a couple of years ago - to show us how to make proper art. At the moment, he’s also collaborating with Foot

What do you imagine under the term “for your whole life”? For me personally, it’s materials like wood and leather. And rightly so, since in this post, we’re going to be talking about the immortal leather Dr. Martens. And when I say immortal, I mean it, these shoes will last your whole life - the people that say no probably never owned a pair, or didn’t read this article. Check out this small recap of the brand and tips for how and when to wear Dr. Martens. Why Dr. Martens? Our story begins in 1901, a
