Smiley launch 2 items with Urban Outfitters
Urban Outfitters has a keen eye for intelligent on-trend design. It’s
inclusion of Smiley products furthers the evidence that the Smiley
revolution is alive and kicking nearly 35 years after its first major
outing in the UK as the unifying symbol of the Rave culture in the 80’s.
The
beauty of Smiley’s iconic logo is its universal appeal. You don’t have
to be a lover of British musical heritage or an emoticon technogeek.
Smiley is a visual way to express a way of life; one of appreciating the
best moments in life and wearing your smile in defiance of all the
blues in the world. This is how Smiley began, years before Acid House,
in 1972 as a way to highlight good news in the media.
Presenting
a refined and design-conscious capsule collection, the Urban Outfitters
offering comprises of white men and women’s t-shirt with classic
all-over Smiley logo designs as well as a unisex sweat stamp marked with
a large dominating Smiley icon. As a product, it’s both cheeky and
considerate, allowing the wearer to make a statement about themselves or
the irony of the state of the world we live in. Either way, each piece
comes wrapped in positivity and captures the simple essence of a logo
which has transcended above its musical heritage to a truly global pop
culture icon.
‘Urban
Outfitters continues its mission to tap into the UK consumer psyche
with selective product offerings from both established and emerging
brands. We’re proud to be a part of this strategy and I see no better
route than utilising our iconic Smiley design; so accessible to any
consumer and engaged with on any level, whether you’re just a
happy-go-lucky person or a hardcore fan to the birth of British house
music’ explained Smiley Marketing Director, Daniel Jay.

DC Shoes – Helping you to Become Part of a Thriving Industry
To those who may be unfamiliar with the term action-sports, it may seem like a confusing and misleading description. Anyone who has ever watched a football or rugby match could argue that these sports are packed full of incident and action, and would therefore expect them to be included within the banner.
In fact, the term action-sports relates to past times that have an inherent relationship with danger, such as snowboarding, surfing and climbing. More commonly referred to as extreme sports, they represent a growing industry that has an enduring appeal among participants and interested spectators alike.
Becoming an Extreme Sports Enthusiast: 3 Things to Consider
If you have recently developed an interest in extreme sports and hope to participate at some point in the future, then you will need to do your research and prepare for the risks involved. For example: -
• Research the Industry and Identify your Favourite Sports: Action-sports represent a diverse range of outdoor past-times, which can enjoyed in a host of alternative weather conditions and climates. Before you do anything, it is wise to research the industry as a whole and determine which sports appeal to you the most. Then you can learn about each of them, and come to an informed decision as to whether or not they are right for you.
• Ensure that you are Equipped for Action: Once you have identified your favourite and most suitable extreme sports, you should then invest in purchasing the relevant equipment. This is key to ensuring that you can enjoy your chosen sport in safety, as these products protect your head, body and extremities against any potential fall or impact. It is also important to buy high quality goods from a reputable supplier, as your protective equipment will need to be both reliable and durable.
• Practice and Hone your Craft: Before you head out into the great outdoors to perform your new found hobby, it is crucial that you practice in a safe and simulated environment. Fortunately, a number of action sports can be replicated indoors and under the guidance of experienced tutors, so that you can learn the craft and develop crucial, first hand experience. This is an important part of your preparation, especially for higher risk activities such as snow boarding and outdoor climbing.
The Last WordAction sports can provide an enjoyable and rewarding experience, combining adrenalin pumping activities with spectacular scenery and travel. If you have to prioritize an aspect of your preparation, then it is most important to ensure that you are using adequate safety equipment correctly at all times.

The Benefits of Converse Trainers
In
terms of spending habits and the motivation for purchasing clothes and
footwear, men and women have remained diametrically opposed for
generations. This is especially true with regards to footwear, as while
female consumers are often guided by design their male counterparts have
tended to seek form and comfort.
The
main reason for this is that few male footwear products combined both
comfort with fashionable design, with the result that they were forced
to make a choice between the two. This has changed in recent years, with
the introduction of Converse trainers having a particularly positive
impact on the male footwear market.
The Benefits of Converse Trainers
So
with this in mind, what practical benefits do Converse trainers have
over their market rivals? Consider the following points: -
- Multi-Purpose and Comfortable Wear: One of the key design features of Converse trainers is that they are multi-purpose, so that consumers can wear them for any occasion. Whether you are looking to find comfortable footwear for exercise or complete a modern smart casual aesthetic, Converse shoes offer an ideal and affordable solution. This is a big advantage in a strained economy, as it means that you do not have to purchase several pairs of footwear for numerous occasions.
- Durability: Unusually for comfortable footwear, Converse trainers are also extremely durable and long wearing. The designers have shrewdly understood that the widespread appeal of these trainers will lead to extensive use, and therefore ensured that their use of material and the manufacturing process has been geared to developing a durable product. So no matter how often you wear your Converse trainers, they will retain their shape and functionality.
- High Fashion Design: Numerous footwear manufacturers have attempted to combine artistic flair with practicality in their products, although very few have done so with tangible success. Converse trainers manage to strike this extremely difficult balance, however, and boast a simple, iconic design that has found an ideal home within contemporary culture. Also available in a range of bright and primary colours, they have the added advantage of appealing to men of all ages and bearing.
The Bottom Line
No
man's wardrobe should be completed without a pair of Converse trainers,
especially in today’s fashion and image conscious world. If you do not
own a pair or have never even considered purchasing one, then you
should ask yourself exactly why are you not looking for Converse trainers? Click here for more information.
