I’m not a big fan of water shoes; in general they’re straight up ugly and make you look like a Danish tourist. I’d possibly make an exception for these Opening Ceremony and Timberland versions. Composed of breathable mesh, quick-dry neoprene and waterproof nubuck suede, they’re available in 3 colorways for $95. Pretty cheap for Opening […]


The eagerly anticipated Fall/Winter 2010 footwear collection from Opening Ceremony have been unveiled, and as usual for the NYC boutique what you get is classic lines sharpened with an edge of modernity. “A mix of classic and contemporary, our Fall/Winter collection infuses familiar favorites with new hues, while, of course, unleashing several decidedly modern pairs […]

The "I'm Here" robots take over the NYC boutique

Remember that Opening Ceremony x Where the Wild Things Are collaboration from a couple months back? Well apparently the OC crew is back at it again battling Mr. Spike Jonze for world supremacy, as they’ve just decorated the window display in their New York boutique with the robots from Jonze’s short film I’m Here (remember […]
