Sneak Tip
June 28th, 2007
New feature coming at you, just to help us order things around here. Sometimes, we get jumbled.
Creative Review recently posted these Y-3 sneakers. Not sure how i feel about the look, but the packaging and all that behind them is pretty amazingly awesome. Celebrating the 25th anniversary of Manchester’s Hacienda nightclub, Peter Saville (graphic artists for Factory Records who probably directly or indirectly inspired tons of graphic artists), Ben Kelly (architect behind the Hacienda), and Peter Hook (bassist for New Order and Joy Division) collaborated on this trainer. It comes in a box shaped like the Hacienda with a piece of wood made to look like the dance floor. It comes with tissue paper featuring sketches of the design for the Hacienda, and a DVD of people talking about the club. Only downside : the price tag is wayyy up there and run is limited to 250.
If you don’t know much about Factory Records, Tony Wilson, or the Hacienda I suggest you do some research. And that doesn’t mean renting 24 Hour Party People.
