Of course, we at Snkrs Day love the retros and limited edition sneaks, but it’s always a breath of fresh air to see something new and different.
Last week, Snkrs Day went out to Las Vegas for the 2nd annual Compass trade show to check out the latest offerings from next generation brands like PRO-Keds, 100 Styles and Running, Vael Project, and The People’s Shoe.?? Taking inspirations from athletic performance to high luxury, there were a lot of progressive and modern styles for any sneaker fan – It was a great to see the future of footwear bubbling under one roof. Again, many thanks to BPMW and all the brands that showed us love – check out the kicks after the jump. Of course, this won’t be for everyone so let the hating begin. |
ABINGTON
Even though it was originally popular with Jersey frat boys, Timberland will always be a staple in the streets – especially in the north where boots are a must.?? Abington was the original product line of Timberland, but has been revamped to introduce the vintage boot on top of a technical Vibram outsole.?? Only available at select spots, their newest styles show the quality of materials and construction.
