New Balance 574 'Windbreaker Pack'

Built with materials for almost any kind of weather condition is the most recent drop from New Balance, the 574 'Windbreaker Pack'. Imagine your go-to-rainjacket, the one jacket that just gets you through any kind of weather - but this time its on your feet, infused with the iconic and staple silhouette of the New Balance 574. The pack is constructed with a durable nylon upper instead of the usual leather/mesh uppers we're used to seeing, in assorted colors on each pair. The colorways are all eye-catching so you can never go wrong on which colorway to pick from. The laces are dubbed with dotted lines that add emphasis on the shoe. You can check New Balance Concept Stores around the Metro and select Planet Sports outlets nationwide. In addition to its beauty as it is, with every purchase of a pair from the 'Windbreaker Pack', you may get a free pin pack or magnet to go with the shoe - not bad, really.

YAWYW: Twelfth House Interview

Local online magazine and culture curator You Are What You Wear recently sat down with the creative director of The Twelfth House, Mikki dela Rea. Mikki gave insight on what their brand stands for, how to build a brand, and a lot more. Here's a little snippet of their conversation:

 "Build branding. If you only got one shirt design, don’t build your brand around it; it should be the other way around. Your branding should also be a reflection of yourself as a person. Stick to a mantra or a brand philosophy. Go out as much as you can and get to know people. It’s almost impossible to do everything alone and you’ll need all the help you can get. Plus, it’s fun getting to know new people. Never hard sell. I know some people call it ‘hustlin’ or what not but it really gets annoying for a consumer. If your products are really good, then people would shell out their hard-earned cash for your stuff. You’ll also gain supporters instead of disgruntled friends who you’ve tagged on Facebook not once, not twice. Don’t rush."
