Lastest Fashion News: Missoni for Target | Stripes and Bikes

 

Courtesy of Target

Target has released the first images of its collaboration with Missoni in an unconventional way. No, not with a party or a press release, with a real blogging doll (joints, hinges and all) named “Marina”! To celebrate her debut, the company created a lengthy post on a tumblr account entitled “All The Way Up Here” which we hope will be continuously updated. While we love the brightly colored garments, we are especially excited for the Missoni for Target bike. Wouldn’t that just be perfect for getting around during fashion week?

*Editor’s note: the collection will be available on Target.com on September 15.

Dan Clog Review

Recently I tried a new pair of Dan Clogs. They are black with closed back.

The Dan Clogs 2380 is very comfortable and molds to the foot. I notice after a couple of days of wear that these clogs snuggled nicely against my arch for a great fit.

I wore these clogs to do a paper route that I had jump over fences and run through mud puddles. Yes I ran in them and very comfortably. After I was done this one-mile of mud running and jump. My feet were completely dry.  The Permair Leather does resist water. I was able to just wipe them back k clean again. Oh yeah I am impressed. I hate wet dirty feet. I spent at least an hour in the rain and mud in the clog and came home with dry feet.

Like I said I ran in the mud and rain while delivering newspapers. I have done the same thing in sneakers and I slipped and stumbled. The non-skid soles really work. I did not slip or slide on any of the brick or tile door front with the clogs being coated in mud and wet from the rain. The makers of these clogs made good use the PU material.

I said before I ran in these clogs. While this was not a full out right sprint like in a pair of sneaker it was a pretty quick pace jog.  The pace I ran was comfortable in the clogs and I was able to run the one-mile route. These are clogs and running can be a little difficult. That was not the case running was comfortable.

The only real problem was I had to wear I full size bigger to get that good fit.

Overall these are great shoes that I would recommend to any
nurse, health care worker, chef, or restaurant server. The fit is comfortable.
They are easy to keep clean. The non-skid sole are a real safety. Look from
