Pacific Standard
Seattle-based Brooks Running Co. is showing off its hometown pride. The athletic brand has unveiled the first item of a new Northwest Pack in its Brooks Heritage Collection. The casual lifestyle sneaker, the Brooks Chariot, goes on sale Jan. 31 for $90 at the brand’s store in Seattle. It features a blue-and-forest green color scheme reminiscent of the Pacific Ocean and the region’s fir trees. And due to a strong initial response, Brooks will start offering the style online in March at Brooksheritagecollection.com.
Double-Dipping
Trend-setting athletic retailer Sportie LA and Dr. Scholl’s Original Exercise Sandal have put their design heads together for a series of limited-edition looks based on the brand’s iconic slide. The five co-branded styles, priced at $88, hit the Sportie LA stores and Sportiela.com on Feb. 1 and will be available there for 45 days. After that, the line will also be sold on Drschollsshoes.com.
