These look relatively clean do they not?
Well I played in them last night and they have a fine layer of dust from the dry high school field where the game was, barely noticeable. I thought about just leaving them and throwing them back in my bag without a proper cleaning but then that wouldn’t be right would it? A good craftsman wouldn’t let their tools rust would they?
Russia missed the World Cup, but they did Write the Future
The 2010 World Cup seems like ancient history as we enter 2012, but hidden gems need to be uncovered. Remember that “Write the Future” advertising campaign? Well, Russian graphic artist Aske (aka Sicksystems) created two football-related pieces of art to capture the interest of the Russian market. With substantial influence from cubism, both the set of illustrations and the sculpture were used by Nike and also exhibited at Faces&Laces Street Culture Show in Moscow.
So why haven’t you seen this until now? Probably because Russia failed to qualify for the World Cup and fell off the radar entirely when all eyes were focused on South Africa.
Resist closing this post with “In Russia, future writes you!”
Tim Howard of Everton scores from 100+ yards away in today’s loss to Bolton Wanderers. On the upside though, he now has more goals in 2012 than the entire Manchester United team. (Sorry to you United supporters, but it’s just too easy right now).
