    What an interesting collaboration; you don’t typically see sodas and shoes coming together for a product! I appreciate that they have more than one style in the collaboration to add some variety and options and that there’s a sustainability element of using recycled materials, but how many people would really wear a shoe with a giant soda advertisement? Not sure I would, but very ‘instagrammable’ to say the least. It’s all good and dandy to do something for the environment, but if it doesn’t actually sell, it’s not giving the effects they intended.

    Very good & I love it – on all dimensions. You seem to be a natural at Cool hunting, Sigrid. Room for improvement? Always! You could have made the key terms bold, it’s obvious that you are playing the magnet term ‘don’t be boring’-card. You could have stipulate that a bit more, by using bold. But this is minimal. It’s an almost perfect blog: well-written, well-documented, well-argued. With a short and a long video for everyone’s taste. Happy Saturday greetings. Carl

    Hi Sigrid,
    I’ve always liked the classic Chuck Taylor model, but I also enjoy them with a modern twist, and the vibrant Coca-Cola elements really resonate with today’s youth culture. I also loved that they’ve incorporated recycled materials, showing a commitment to sustainability— that’s definitely a plus! Plus, the fact that these sneakers are so photogenic makes them the perfect accessory for our social media. Without a doubt, this collaboration not only celebrates the heritage of legendary brands but also sets a new standard in the fashion world. I’m excited to see how this trend evolves!

    You always write pretty good Sigrid. Bolds(you could do a bit more), lots of pictures, videos, resources links and very well written and definitely instagrammable which is directly related to Gen Z.
