July 6, 2022: Fendi has released its autumn/winter 2022 ready-to-wear campaign featuring Bella Hadid.

The players were outfitted with the brand’s sporty and casual footwear styles, but otherwise styled themselves. “They just came dressed like true gramparents!” added Hewlett.

May 24, 2022: Clarks Originals has released a new documentary short, “Soles of The City.” Directed by Set Free Richardson, the short film features first-person accounts from cultural icons such as April Walker, Ronnie Fieg, Futura, Dave East, Ghostface Killah and Raekwon, as they describe their introduction to the Wallabee and how the classic Clarks style became synonymous with hip-hop in its most formative era. Tracing the emergence of the brand’s relevance to its popularization among Jamaican immigrants arriving in the U.S. during the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, the film goes on to illustrate the deep-rooted connection between the sneaker-alternative and the formation of new communities defined by resilience and forged identity. First introduced in 1967, the Wallabee has an enduring legacy and ties to many different sub-cultures and countercultures throughout its history. While hip-hop established itself as more than just an underground phenomenon, the Wallabee became the uniform for artists like Run DMC, Slick Rick and KRS1 who wanted to stay true to the genre’s Caribbean diaspora roots. The ‘90s saw an explosion for the style in New York and on the hip-hop scene, largely thanks to the adoption by Staten Island’s Wu Tang Clan.
