In what was sure to be the highlight (for some) of Comic-Con 2010, Etnies announced that they teamed up with writer/director Kevin Smith to release a collaboration project inspired by the 1994 cult classic film Clerks.

Smith debuted the shoes over the weekend during the four-day convention at a happy hour event thrown at San Diego’s Sé Hotel. 300 fans were on hand for the announcement and treated to free beer and some Etnies apparel and shoes courtesy of Smith and the sneaker company.

The shoes, based off of Etnies Jameson 2 line, features the “Clerks” logo on the side heel panel of each shoe and matching Etnies logo on the tongue. What really makes these shoes a “must-own” for Clerks fans, is black and white still shot of two of Smith’s most iconic characters, Jay & Silent Bob in front of the famous Quick Stop on the left and right footbeds of the shoes.

New Balance Launches NewBalance365.com Project

admin — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 23:15:59 +0000

Kicking off their brand new site, for the next 365 days shoe company New Balance will be putting out a collection of short films to spotlight a different shoe from its new global spring/summer 2010 collection. This is a pretty interesting concept in regards to social media, especially coming from a shoe manufacturer. These days, any worthwhile social media related project has to include the ubiquitous iPhone app and true to form, New Balance has created one as well to keep consumers engaged and “balanced”.

iPhone apps are cool and all, however New Balance 365 has taken their app a step further. Not only can you watch the each daily NewBalance365.com video through your iPhone, the app also acts as an alarm clock that will wake you up with something new and different every day, providing users with a daily dose of “balance”. It even records your sleeping habits so you can compare them with the sleeping habits of the rest of the world.

It’s actually quite interesting once you start looking at the graphs covering demos like “Oversleepers”, “Late Risers vs. Early Risers” and “Sleep Worldwide” on their website. It’s good to know that the majority of the world is awake right now with, you know, sleep being the cousin of death and all.

Check out their launch video below and head over to NewBalance365.com to see all of their previous daily videos.
